Genesis 26
1 And there was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines to Gerar.
Maka timbullah kelaparan di negeri itu. --Ini bukan kelaparan yang pertama, yang telah terjadi dalam zaman Abraham. Sebab itu Ishak pergi ke Gerar, kepada Abimelekh, raja orang Filistin.
2 And the LORD appeared to him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:
Lalu TUHAN menampakkan diri kepadanya serta berfirman: "Janganlah pergi ke Mesir, diamlah di negeri yang akan Kukatakan kepadamu.
3 Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for to thee, and to thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I swore to Abraham thy father;
Tinggallah di negeri ini sebagai orang asing, maka Aku akan menyertai engkau dan memberkati engkau, sebab kepadamulah dan kepada keturunanmu akan Kuberikan seluruh negeri ini, dan Aku akan menepati sumpah yang telah Kuikrarkan kepada Abraham, ayahmu.
4 And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give to thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;
Aku akan membuat banyak keturunanmu seperti bintang di langit; Aku akan memberikan kepada keturunanmu seluruh negeri ini, dan oleh keturunanmu semua bangsa di bumi akan mendapat berkat,
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.
karena Abraham telah mendengarkan firman-Ku dan memelihara kewajibannya kepada-Ku, yaitu segala perintah, ketetapan dan hukum-Ku."
6 And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:
Jadi tinggallah Ishak di Gerar.
7 And the men of the place asked him of his wife; and he said, She is my sister: for he feared to say, She is my wife; lest, said he, the men of the place should kill me for Rebekah; because she was fair to look upon.
Ketika orang-orang di tempat itu bertanya tentang isterinya, berkatalah ia: "Dia saudaraku," sebab ia takut mengatakan: "Ia isteriku," karena pikirnya: "Jangan-jangan aku dibunuh oleh penduduk tempat ini karena Ribka, sebab elok parasnya."
8 And it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out at a window, and saw, and, behold, Isaac was sporting with Rebekah his wife.
Setelah beberapa lama ia ada di sana, pada suatu kali menjenguklah Abimelekh, raja orang Filistin itu dari jendela, maka dilihatnya Ishak sedang bercumbu-cumbuan dengan Ribka, isterinya.
9 And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, surely she is thy wife: and how saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said to him, Because I said, Lest I should die on her account.
Lalu Abimelekh memanggil Ishak dan berkata: "Sesungguhnya dia isterimu, masakan engkau berkata: Dia saudaraku?" Jawab Ishak kepadanya: "Karena pikirku: Jangan-jangan aku mati karena dia."
10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done to us? one of the people might lightly have lain with thy wife, and thou wouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.
Tetapi Abimelekh berkata: "Apakah juga yang telah kauperbuat ini terhadap kami? Mudah sekali terjadi, salah seorang dari bangsa ini tidur dengan isterimu, sehingga dengan demikian engkau mendatangkan kesalahan atas kami."
11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.
Lalu Abimelekh memberi perintah kepada seluruh bangsa itu: "Siapa yang mengganggu orang ini atau isterinya, pastilah ia akan dihukum mati."
12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the LORD blessed him.
Maka menaburlah Ishak di tanah itu dan dalam tahun itu juga ia mendapat hasil seratus kali lipat; sebab ia diberkati TUHAN.
13 And the man became great, and continued, and grew until he became very great:
Dan orang itu menjadi kaya, bahkan kian lama kian kaya, sehingga ia menjadi sangat kaya.
14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and very many servants: and the Philistines envied him.
Ia mempunyai kumpulan kambing domba dan lembu sapi serta banyak anak buah, sehingga orang Filistin itu cemburu kepadanya.
15 For all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.
Segala sumur, yang digali dalam zaman Abraham, ayahnya, oleh hamba-hamba ayahnya itu, telah ditutup oleh orang Filistin dan ditimbun dengan tanah.
16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.
Lalu kata Abimelekh kepada Ishak: "Pergilah dari tengah-tengah kami sebab engkau telah menjadi jauh lebih berkuasa dari pada kami."
17 And Isaac departed from there, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.
Jadi pergilah Ishak dari situ dan berkemahlah ia di lembah Gerar, dan ia menetap di situ.
18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father; for the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham: and he called their names after the names by which his father had called them.
Kemudian Ishak menggali kembali sumur-sumur yang digali dalam zaman Abraham, ayahnya, dan yang telah ditutup oleh orang Filistin sesudah Abraham mati; disebutkannyalah nama sumur-sumur itu menurut nama-nama yang telah diberikan oleh ayahnya.
19 And Isaac’s servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.
Ketika hamba-hamba Ishak menggali di lembah itu, mereka mendapati di situ mata air yang berbual-bual airnya.
20 And the herdmen of Gerar contended with Isaac’s herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.
Lalu bertengkarlah para gembala Gerar dengan para gembala Ishak. Kata mereka: "Air ini kepunyaan kami." Dan Ishak menamai sumur itu Esek, karena mereka bertengkar dengan dia di sana.
21 And they dug another well, and contended for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.
Kemudian mereka menggali sumur lain, dan mereka bertengkar juga tentang itu. Maka Ishak menamai sumur itu Sitna.
22 And he departed from there, and dug another well; and for that they did not contend: and he called the name of it Rehoboth; and he said, For now the LORD hath made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.
Ia pindah dari situ dan menggali sumur yang lain lagi, tetapi tentang sumur ini mereka tidak bertengkar. Sumur ini dinamainya Rehobot, dan ia berkata: "Sekarang TUHAN telah memberikan kelonggaran kepada kita, sehingga kita dapat beranak cucu di negeri ini."
23 And he went up from there to Beersheba.
Dari situ ia pergi ke Bersyeba.
24 And the LORD appeared to him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.
Lalu pada malam itu TUHAN menampakkan diri kepadanya serta berfirman: "Akulah Allah ayahmu Abraham; janganlah takut, sebab Aku menyertai engkau; Aku akan memberkati engkau dan membuat banyak keturunanmu karena Abraham, hamba-Ku itu."
25 And he built an altar there, and called upon the name of the LORD, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac’s servants dug a well.
Sesudah itu Ishak mendirikan mezbah di situ dan memanggil nama TUHAN. Ia memasang kemahnya di situ, lalu hamba-hambanya menggali sumur di situ.
26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.
Datanglah Abimelekh dari Gerar mendapatkannya, bersama-sama dengan Ahuzat, sahabatnya, dan Pikhol, kepala pasukannya.
27 And Isaac said to them, Why come ye to me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you?
Tetapi kata Ishak kepada mereka: "Mengapa kamu datang mendapatkan aku? Bukankah kamu benci kepadaku, dan telah menyuruh aku keluar dari tanahmu?"
28 And they said, We saw certainly that the LORD was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath between us, even between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;
Jawab mereka: "Kami telah melihat sendiri, bahwa TUHAN menyertai engkau; sebab itu kami berkata: baiklah kita mengadakan sumpah setia, antara kami dan engkau; dan baiklah kami mengikat perjanjian dengan engkau,
29 That thou wilt do us no harm, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done to thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou art now the blessed of the LORD.
bahwa engkau tidak akan berbuat jahat kepada kami, seperti kami tidak mengganggu engkau, dan seperti kami semata-mata berbuat baik kepadamu dan membiarkan engkau pergi dengan damai; bukankah engkau sekarang yang diberkati TUHAN."
30 And he made them a feast, and they ate and drank.
Kemudian Ishak mengadakan perjamuan bagi mereka, lalu mereka makan dan minum.
31 And they rose early in the morning, and swore one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.
Keesokan harinya pagi-pagi bersumpah-sumpahanlah mereka. Kemudian Ishak melepas mereka, dan mereka meninggalkan dia dengan damai.
32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said to him, We have found water.
Pada hari itu datanglah hamba-hamba Ishak memberitahukan kepadanya tentang sumur yang telah digali mereka, serta berkata kepadanya: "Kami telah mendapat air."
33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba to this day.
Lalu dinamainyalah sumur itu Syeba. Sebab itu nama kota itu adalah Bersyeba, sampai sekarang.
34 And Esau was forty years old when he took for a wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:
Ketika Esau telah berumur empat puluh tahun, ia mengambil Yudit, anak Beeri orang Het, dan Basmat, anak Elon orang Het, menjadi isterinya.
35 Who were a grief of mind to Isaac and Rebekah.
Kedua perempuan itu menimbulkan kepedihan hati bagi Ishak dan bagi Ribka.
