Genesis 21
1 Now God visited Sarah as he had said, and did to Sarah as he had spoken.
Visitavit autem Dominus Saram, sicut promiserat: et implevit quæ locutus est.
2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
Concepitque et peperit filium in senectute sua, tempore quo prædixerat ei Deus.
3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.
Vocavitque Abraham nomen filii sui, quem genuit ei Sara, Isaac:
4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.
et circumcidit eum octavo die, sicut præceperat ei Deus,
5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.
cum centum esset annorum: hac quippe ætate patris, natus est Isaac.
6 Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."
Dixitque Sara: Risum fecit mihi Deus: quicumque audierit, corridebit mihi.
7 She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."
Rursumque ait: Quis auditurus crederet Abraham quod Sara lactaret filium, quem peperit ei jam seni?
8 The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.
Crevit igitur puer, et ablactatus est: fecitque Abraham grande convivium in die ablactationis ejus.
9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.
Cumque vidisset Sara filium Agar Ægyptiæ ludentem cum Isaac filio suo, dixit ad Abraham:
10 Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this slave woman and her son. For the son of this slave woman will not be heir with my son, Isaac."
Ejice ancillam hanc, et filium ejus: non enim erit hæres filius ancillæ cum filio meo Isaac.
11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.
Dure accepit hoc Abraham pro filio suo.
12 God said to Abraham, "Do not let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your slave woman. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your descendants be called.
Cui dixit Deus: Non tibi videatur asperum super puero, et super ancilla tua: omnia quæ dixerit tibi Sara, audi vocem ejus: quia in Isaac vocabitur tibi semen.
13 And I will also make a great nation of the son of the slave woman, because he is your offspring."
Sed et filium ancillæ faciam in gentem magnam, quia semen tuum est.
14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took food and a skin of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.
Surrexit itaque Abraham mane, et tollens panem et utrem aquæ, imposuit scapulæ ejus, tradiditque puerum, et dimisit eam. Quæ cum abiisset, errabat in solitudine Bersabee.
15 The water in the skin was gone, and she shoved the boy under one of the shrubs.
Cumque consumpta esset aqua in utre, abjecit puerum subter unam arborum, quæ ibi erant.
16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Do not let me see the death of the boy." So she sat across from him, and he wept loudly.
Et abiit, seditque e regione procul quantum potest arcus jacere: dixit enim: Non videbo morientem puerum: et sedens contra, levavit vocem suam et flevit.
17 And God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from the sky and said to her, "What troubles you, Hagar? Do not be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.
Exaudivit autem Deus vocem pueri: vocavitque angelus Dei Agar de cælo, dicens: Quid agis Agar? noli timere: exaudivit enim Deus vocem pueri de loco in quo est.
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him by your hand. For I will make him a great nation."
Surge, tolle puerum, et tene manum illius: quia in gentem magnam faciam eum.
19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
Aperuitque oculos ejus Deus: quæ videns puteum aquæ, abiit, et implevit utrem, deditque puero bibere.
20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.
Et fuit cum eo: qui crevit, et moratus est in solitudine, factusque est juvenis sagittarius.
21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother got a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
Habitavitque in deserto Pharan, et accepit illi mater sua uxorem de terra Ægypti.
22 It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.
Eodem tempore dixit Abimelech, et Phicol princeps exercitus ejus, ad Abraham: Deus tecum est in universis quæ agis.
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."
Jura ergo per Deum, ne noceas mihi, et posteris meis, stirpique meæ: sed juxta misericordiam, quam feci tibi, facies mihi, et terræ in qua versatus es advena.
24 And Abraham said, "I swear."
Dixitque Abraham: Ego jurabo.
25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.
Et increpavit Abimelech propter puteum aquæ quem vi abstulerunt servi ejus.
26 Abimelech said, "I do not know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."
Responditque Abimelech: Nescivi quis fecerit hanc rem: sed et tu non indicasti mihi, et ego non audivi præter hodie.
27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a covenant.
Tulit itaque Abraham oves et boves, et dedit Abimelech: percusseruntque ambo fœdus.
28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
Et statuit Abraham septem agnas gregis seorsum.
29 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"
Cui dixit Abimelech: Quid sibi volunt septem agnæ istæ, quas stare fecisti seorsum?
30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."
At ille: Septem, inquit, agnas accipies de manu mea: ut sint mihi in testimonium, quoniam ego fodi puteum istum.
31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.
Idcirco vocatus est locus ille Bersabee: quia ibi uterque juravit.
32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the commander of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
Et inierunt fœdus pro puteo juramenti.
33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Jehovah, the Everlasting God.
Surrexit autem Abimelech, et Phicol princeps exercitus ejus, reversique sunt in terram Palæstinorum. Abraham vero plantavit nemus in Bersabee, et invocavit ibi nomen Domini Dei æterni.
34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
Et fuit colonus terræ Palæstinorum diebus multis.
