< Genesis 24 >

1 Ita, lakayen ni Abraham, lakay unayen, ket binendisionan ni Yahweh ni Abraham iti amin a banbanag.
And Abraham was old, [and] well stricken in age: and the LORD had blessed Abraham in all things.
2 Kinuna ni Abraham iti adipenna a kalakayan iti pagtaenganna ken isu ti mangimatmaton iti amin nga adda kenni Abraham, ''Ikabilmo ta imam iti baet dagiti luppok
And Abraham said unto his eldest servant of his house, that ruled over all that he had, Put, I pray thee, thy hand under my thigh:
3 ket pagsapataenka kenni Yahweh, a Dios ti langit ken Dios ti daga, a saankanto a mangala iti asawa para iti anakko manipud kadagiti annak dagiti taga-Canaan, a nangaramidak iti pagtaengak.
And I will make thee swear by the LORD, the God of heaven, and the God of the earth, that thou shalt not take a wife unto my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, among whom I dwell:
4 Ngem mapankanto iti pagiliak, ken kadagiti kabagiak, ket mangalaka iti asawa para iti anakko a ni Isaac.”
But thou shalt go unto my country, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son Isaac.
5 Kinuna ti adipen kenkuana, “Kasano no saan a kayat ti babai a sumurot kaniak iti daytoy a daga? Masapul kadi nga umayko ikuyog ti anakmo ket isublik iti daga a naggapuam?
And the servant said unto him, Peradventure the woman will not be willing to follow me unto this land: must I needs bring thy son again unto the land from whence thou camest?
6 Kinuna ni Abraham kenkuana, “Siguradoem a saanmo nga isubli ti anakko sadiay!
And Abraham said unto him, Beware thou that thou bring not my son thither again.
7 Ni Yahweh a Dios ti langit, a nangala kaniak manipud iti balay ni amak ken manipud iti daga dagiti kabagiak, ken nagkari kaniak babaen iti napasnek a sapata a kunana, 'Itedkonto kadagiti kaputotam daytoy a daga,' ibaonnanto ti anghelna nga umuna kenka, ket mangalakanto iti asawaen ti anakko manipud sadiay.
The LORD God of heaven, which took me from my father’s house, and from the land of my kindred, and which spake unto me, and that sware unto me, saying, Unto thy seed will I give this land; he shall send his angel before thee, and thou shalt take a wife unto my son from thence.
8 Ngem no saan a kayat ti babai a sumurot kenka, mawayawayaankanto ngarud manipud iti daytoy a panagsapatam kaniak. Dayta laeng ta saan a mabalin nga isublim ti annakko sadiay.”
And if the woman will not be willing to follow thee, then thou shalt be clear from this my oath: only bring not my son thither again.
9 Isu nga inkabil ti adipen ti imana iti baet ti luppo ni Abraham nga apona, ket nagsapata kenkuana maipanggep iti daytoy a banag.
And the servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and sware to him concerning that matter.
10 Nangala ti adipen iti sangapulo a kamelio ti apona ket pimmanaw. Nangala pay isuna kadagiti amin a kita dagiti sagut manipud iti apona. Pimmanaw isuna ket napan iti rehion ti Aram Naharaim, iti siudad ni Nahor.
And the servant took ten camels of the camels of his master, and departed; for all the goods of his master [were] in his hand: and he arose, and went to Mesopotamia, unto the city of Nahor.
11 Pinaginanana dagiti kamelio iti ruar ti siudad iti abay ti bubon. Rabii idin, ti tiempo a panagruruar dagiti babbai a mapan agsakdo.
And he made his camels to kneel down without the city by a well of water at the time of the evening, [even] the time that women go out to draw [water].
12 Ket kinunana, “Yahweh, Dios ti apok a ni Abraham, ipaaymo koma kaniak ti panagballigi iti daytoy nga aldaw ken ipakitam ti napudno a katulagam kenni apok a ni Abraham.
And he said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, I pray thee, send me good speed this day, and shew kindness unto my master Abraham.
13 Kitaem, addaak ditoy nga agtaktakder iti abay ti ubbog, ket dagiti babbai a putot dagiti lallaki iti daytoy a siudad ket rummuarda nga umay agsakdo.
Behold, I stand [here] by the well of water; and the daughters of the men of the city come out to draw water:
14 Kastoy koma ngarud iti mapasamak. No ibagak iti maysa a balasang, 'Pangngaasim ta ibabam ta karambam tapno makiinumak,' ket kunaenna kaniak, 'Uminomka, ken painumek met dagiti kameliom,' ket isunanto ti intudingmo para iti adipenmo a ni Isaac. Babaen iti daytoy a maammoak nga impakitam ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo iti apok.”
And let it come to pass, that the damsel to whom I shall say, Let down thy pitcher, I pray thee, that I may drink; and she shall say, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: [let the same be] she [that] thou hast appointed for thy servant Isaac; and thereby shall I know that thou hast shewed kindness unto my master.
15 Napasamak a sakbay a nalpasna ti panagsaritana, adtoy met ni Rebecca a rimmuar nga addaan iti karamba iti abagana. Ni Rebecca ket putot ni Betuel nga anak a lalaki ni Milca nga asawa ni Nahor a kabsat a lalaki ni Abraham.
And it came to pass, before he had done speaking, that, behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel, son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham’s brother, with her pitcher upon her shoulder.
16 Nakapinpintas unay ti balasang ken maysa isuna a birhen. Awan pay iti lalaki a nakikaidda kenkuana. Simmalog isuna iti ubbog ket pinunnona ti karambana, ket simmang-at.
And the damsel [was] very fair to look upon, a virgin, neither had any man known her: and she went down to the well, and filled her pitcher, and came up.
17 Ket nagtaray ti adipen tapno sabtenna isuna ket kinunana, “Pangngaasim ta ikkannak iti bassit a mainum manipud dita karambam.”
And the servant ran to meet her, and said, Let me, I pray thee, drink a little water of thy pitcher.
18 Kinunana, Uminomka, apok,” ket dagdagus nga imbabana ti karamba kadagiti imana, ket pinainomna.
And she said, Drink, my lord: and she hasted, and let down her pitcher upon her hand, and gave him drink.
19 Idi nalpasna isuna a pinainom, kinunana, “Agsakdoakto met iti para kadagiti kameliom, agingga a malpasda nga uminom.”
And when she had done giving him drink, she said, I will draw [water] for thy camels also, until they have done drinking.
20 Isu a nagdardaras isuna ket imbukbokna ti nagyan iti karambana iti paginuman dagiti ayup, ket nagtaray manen a nagsubli idiay bubon tapno agsakdo, ket insakdoanna amin dagiti kamelio ti adipen.
And she hasted, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again unto the well to draw [water], and drew for all his camels.
21 Siuulimek a binuybuya isuna ti lalaki tapno makitana no pinagballigi ni Yahweh ti panagdaliasatna wenno saan.
And the man wondering at her held his peace, to wit whether the LORD had made his journey prosperous or not.
22 Idi nalpas nga imminum dagiti kamelio, nangiruar ti lalaki iti balitok nga aritos ti agong nga agtimbang iti kagudua ti siklo, ken dua a pulseras a para kadagiti takyagna nga agdagsen iti sangapulo a siklo,
And it came to pass, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden earring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten [shekels] weight of gold;
23 ken sinaludsodna, “Siasino ti akin anak kenka? Pangngaasim ta ibagam kaniak, adda kadi siled idiay balay ni amam para kadakami a pagpalabasanmi iti rabii?”
And said, Whose daughter [art] thou? tell me, I pray thee: is there room [in] thy father’s house for us to lodge in?
24 Kinuna ti balasang kenkuana, “Siak ket anak ni Betuel nga anak a lalaki ni Milca, nga inyanakna kenni Nahor.”
And she said unto him, I [am] the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, which she bare unto Nahor.
25 Kinunana pay kenkuana, “Addaankami iti adu a garami ken makan, ken kasta met iti siled a para kenka a pagpalabasam ti rabii.”
She said moreover unto him, We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in.
26 Ket nagkurno ti lalaki ken indaydayawna ni Yahweh.
And the man bowed down his head, and worshipped the LORD.
27 Kinunana, “Madaydayaw ni Yahweh a Dios ti amongko a ni Abraham, saanna a tinallikudan ti kinapudnona iti tulagna ken ti kinamapagtalkanna iti amongko. Iti biangko met, inturongnak a dagus ni Yahweh iti balay dagiti kabagian ti amongko.”
And he said, Blessed [be] the LORD God of my master Abraham, who hath not left destitute my master of his mercy and his truth: I [being] in the way, the LORD led me to the house of my master’s brethren.
28 Kalpasanna, nagtaray ti balasang ket napanna imbaga iti sangkabalayan ni nanangna ti maipanggep kadagitoy amin a banbanag.
And the damsel ran, and told [them of] her mother’s house these things.
29 Ita, addaan ni Rebecca iti kabsat a lalaki, ket Laban ti naganna. Nagtaray ni Laban iti ruar, iti ayan ti lalaki nga adda iti kalsada iti abay ti ubbog.
And Rebekah had a brother, and his name [was] Laban: and Laban ran out unto the man, unto the well.
30 Idi nakitana ti aritos ti agong ken dagiti pulseras iti takiag ti kabsatna, ken idi nangngeganna dagiti sinao ni Rebecca a kabsatna, “Daytoy ti imbaga ti lalaki kaniak,” napan isuna iti ayan ti lalaki, ket adda sadiay nga agtaktakder iti abay dagiti kamelio iti ayan ti ubbog.
And it came to pass, when he saw the earring and bracelets upon his sister’s hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, Thus spake the man unto me; that he came unto the man; and, behold, he stood by the camels at the well.
31 Ket kinuna ni Laban, “Umayka, sika a binendisionan ni Yahweh. Apay nga agtaktakderka dita ruar? Insaganak ti balay ken ti disso a para kadagiti kamelio.”
And he said, Come in, thou blessed of the LORD; wherefore standest thou without? for I have prepared the house, and room for the camels.
32 Isu a napan ti lalaki iti balay ket inikkatna dagiti awit dagiti kamelio. Ket naikkan dagiti kamelio ti garami ken makan, ket naipaayan met iti danum a pangbuggona kadagiti sakana kasta met dagiti saka dagiti lallaki a kakaduana.
And the man came into the house: and he ungirded his camels, and gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet, and the men’s feet that [were] with him.
33 Nangisaganada iti taraon iti sagoananna tapno mangan, ngem kinunana, “Saanak a mangan agingga a maibagak no ania ti masapul nga ibagak.” Isu a kinuna ni Laban, “Agsaoka”
And there was set [meat] before him to eat: but he said, I will not eat, until I have told mine errand. And he said, Speak on.
34 Kinunana, “Adipennak ni Abraham.
And he said, I [am] Abraham’s servant.
35 Binendisionan ni Yahweh ti apok iti kasta unay ket nagbalin a naindaklan. Inikkanna isuna kadagiti karnero ken kadagiti kalding, pirak ken balitok, kadagiti lallaki nga adipen ken kadagiti babbai nga adipen, ken kadagiti kamelio ken kadagiti asno.
And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly; and he is become great: and he hath given him flocks, and herds, and silver, and gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.
36 Ni Sarah nga asawa ti apok ket nangipasngay iti maysa a lalaki kenni amongko idi baketen isuna, ket intedna amin a banbanag a sanikuana kenkuana.
And Sarah my master’s wife bare a son to my master when she was old: and unto him hath he given all that he hath.
37 Pinagsapatanak ti apok, a kinunana, 'Masapul a saanka a mangala iti asawa a para iti anakko manipud kadagiti annak a babbai dagiti taga-Canaan, daga a nangaramidak iti pagtaengak.
And my master made me swear, saying, Thou shalt not take a wife to my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I dwell:
38 Ngem ketdi, masapul a mapanka iti pamilia ni tatangko, ken kadagiti kabagiak, ket mangalaka iti asawaen ti anakko.'
But thou shalt go unto my father’s house, and to my kindred, and take a wife unto my son.
39 Kinunak iti apok, 'Nalabit a saanto a sumurot kaniak ti babai.
And I said unto my master, Peradventure the woman will not follow me.
40 Ngem kinunana kaniak, 'Ni Yahweh, a pagtultulnogak, ket ibaonnanto ti anghelna a kumuyog kenka ket pagballigiennanto ti dalanmo, tapno iti kasta ket mangalaka iti asawaen ti anakko manipud kadagiti kabagiak ken manipud iti linya ti pamilia ni tatangko.
And he said unto me, The LORD, before whom I walk, will send his angel with thee, and prosper thy way; and thou shalt take a wife for my son of my kindred, and of my father’s house:
41 Ngem mawayawayaankanto manipud iti sinapataam kaniak no mapanka kadagiti kabagiak ket saanda nga ited isuna kenka. Ket mawayawayaankanto manipud iti sinapataam kaniak.'
Then shalt thou be clear from [this] my oath, when thou comest to my kindred; and if they give not thee [one], thou shalt be clear from my oath.
42 Simmangpetak ngarud ita nga aldaw iti ayan ti ubbog, ket kinunak, 'O Yahweh, Dios ti apok a ni Abraham, pangngaasim, no pudno a panggepmo a pagballigien ti panagdaliasatko—
And I came this day unto the well, and said, O LORD God of my master Abraham, if now thou do prosper my way which I go:
43 addaak ditoy nga agtaktakder iti abay ti ubbog—Ti koma balasang nga umay agsakdo, iti babai a pangibagaak, “Pangngaasim ta ikkannak iti bassit a danum nga inumek manipud dita karambam,”
Behold, I stand by the well of water; and it shall come to pass, that when the virgin cometh forth to draw [water], and I say to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water of thy pitcher to drink;
44 ti babai a mangibaga kaniak, “Uminomka, ket sumakdoakto met para kadagiti kameliom”— ket isuna ti babai nga inkapinili, Yahweh, para iti putot ti apok.'
And she say to me, Both drink thou, and I will also draw for thy camels: [let] the same [be] the woman whom the LORD hath appointed out for my master’s son.
45 Sakbay pay a nalpasak nga agsarita iti pusok, pagammoan, simmangpet ni Rebecca nga awitna ti karambana iti abagana ket simmalog idiay ubbog ket nagsakdo. Isu a kinunak kenkuana, 'Pangngaasim ta painumennak.'
And before I had done speaking in mine heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder; and she went down unto the well, and drew [water: ] and I said unto her, Let me drink, I pray thee.
46 Dagus nga imbabana ti karambana manipud iti abagana ket kinunana, 'Uminumka, ket painumek met dagiti kameliom.' Imminomak ngarud, ket pinainomna met dagiti kamelio.
And she made haste, and let down her pitcher from her [shoulder], and said, Drink, and I will give thy camels drink also: so I drank, and she made the camels drink also.
47 Ket dinamagko kenkuana, 'Siasino ti akin anak kenka? Kinunana, 'Putotnak ni Betuel a putot ni Nahor, nga impasngay ni Milca kenkuana.' Ket inkabilko ti aritos iti agongna ken dagiti pulseras kadagiti takiagna.
And I asked her, and said, Whose daughter [art] thou? And she said, The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor’s son, whom Milcah bare unto him: and I put the earring upon her face, and the bracelets upon her hands.
48 Kalpasanna, nagkurnoak ket nagdaydayawak kenni Yahweh, indaydayawko ni Yahweh a Dios ti apok a ni Abraham, nga isu iti nangidalan kaniak iti umno a dalan tapno masarakak ti anak dagiti kabagian ti amongko para iti anakna.
And I bowed down my head, and worshipped the LORD, and blessed the LORD God of my master Abraham, which had led me in the right way to take my master’s brother’s daughter unto his son.
49 Ita ngarud, no nakasaganakayo a mangpadayaw iti apok babaen iti kinapudnoyo ken kinamapagtalkan iti pamilya, ibagayo kaniak. Ngem no saan, ibagayo kaniak, tapno ammok ti aramidek.”
And now if ye will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me: and if not, tell me; that I may turn to the right hand, or to the left.
50 Ket simmungbat da Laban ken Betuel a kinunada, “Ti banag ket naggapu kenni Yahweh; saankami a mabalin nga agsarita iti nasayaat wenno dakes kenka.
Then Laban and Bethuel answered and said, The thing proceedeth from the LORD: we cannot speak unto thee bad or good.
51 Adtoy ni Rebecca iti sangoanam. Alaem isuna ket mapankayo, tapno agbalin nga asawa ti anak ti apom, kas imbaga ni Yahweh.”
Behold, Rebekah [is] before thee, take [her], and go, and let her be thy master’s son’s wife, as the LORD hath spoken.
52 Idi nangngegan ti adipen ni Abraham dagiti sinaoda, nagpakleb iti daga para kenni Yahweh.
And it came to pass, that, when Abraham’s servant heard their words, he worshipped the LORD, [bowing himself] to the earth.
53 Inruar ti adipen dagiti banbanag a pirak, ken banbanag a balitok, ken pagan-anay, ket intedna kenni Rebecca. Inikkanna met iti napapateg a sagut ti kabsatna a lalaki ken ni nanangna.
And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave [them] to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.
54 Ket nangan ken imminom isuna ken dagiti lallaki a kaduana. Ket nagtalinaedda sadiay iti nagpatnag, ket idi bimmangonda iti kabigatan, kinunana, “Palubosandak a mapan iti apok.”
And they did eat and drink, he and the men that [were] with him, and tarried all night; and they rose up in the morning, and he said, Send me away unto my master.
55 Kinuna ti kabsat a lalaki ken ti nanang ni Rebecca, “Agtalinaed pay koma ti balasang kadakami iti sumagmamano pay nga al-aldaw, uray sangapulo laeng. Kalpasan dayta, mabalinna ti mapan.”
And her brother and her mother said, Let the damsel abide with us [a few] days, at the least ten; after that she shall go.
56 Ngem kinunana kadakuada, “Saandak a lappedan, agsipud ta pinagballigi ni Yahweh ti panagdaliasatko. Palubosandak a pumanaw tapno mapanak kenni amongko.”
And he said unto them, Hinder me not, seeing the LORD hath prospered my way; send me away that I may go to my master.
57 Kinunada, “Ayabanmi ti balasang ket saludsodenmi isuna.”
And they said, We will call the damsel, and enquire at her mouth.
58 Isu nga inayabanda ni Rebecca ket sinaludsodda kenkuana, “Sumurotka kadi iti daytoy a lalaki?” Simmungbat isuna, “Sumurotak.”
And they called Rebekah, and said unto her, Wilt thou go with this man? And she said, I will go.
59 Pinalubosanda ngarud ni Rebecca, a kaduana dagiti adipenna a babbai, iti panagdaliasatna a kadua ti adipen ni Abraham ken dagiti lallaki a kaduana.
And they sent away Rebekah their sister, and her nurse, and Abraham’s servant, and his men.
60 Binendisionanda ni Rebecca, a kinunada kenkuana, “Kabsatmi a babai, agbalinka koma nga ina iti rinibribu ti sangapulo a ribu, ken tagikuaen koma dagiti pulim ti ruangan dagiti manggura kadakuada.”
And they blessed Rebekah, and said unto her, Thou [art] our sister, be thou [the mother] of thousands of millions, and let thy seed possess the gate of those which hate them.
61 Kalpasanna, nagrubbuat ni Rebecca ket insaganana ken dagiti adipenna a babbai dagiti kamelio, ket simmurotda iti lalaki. Kastoy ti panangala ti adipen kenni Rebecca, ket napan iti dalanna.
And Rebekah arose, and her damsels, and they rode upon the camels, and followed the man: and the servant took Rebekah, and went his way.
62 Ita, ni Isaac ket agnanaed idiay Negeb, ket kasubsublina laeng manipud Beer-lahai-roi.
And Isaac came from the way of the well Lahai-roi; for he dwelt in the south country.
63 Rimmuar ni Isaac tapno mapan agpanunot iti kataltalunan iti rabii, ket idi timmangad isuna ken kimmita, pagammoan ket adda nakitana a sumagmamano a kamelio a sumungsungad!
And Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the eventide: and he lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, the camels [were] coming.
64 Kimmita ni Rebecca, ket idi nakitana ni Isaac, limmagto nga immulog iti kamelio.
And Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she lighted off the camel.
65 Kinunana iti adipen, “Siasino dayta a lalaki a magmagna idiay taltalon a sumabat kadatayo?” Kinuna ti adipen, “Ti apok.” Isu nga innalana ti dalungdongna, ket inabbunganna ti ulona.
For she [had] said unto the servant, What man [is] this that walketh in the field to meet us? And the servant [had] said, It [is] my master: therefore she took a vail, and covered herself.
66 Imbaga ti adipen kenni Isaac dagiti amin a banbanag nga inaramidna.
And the servant told Isaac all things that he had done.
67 Ket impan ni Isaac ni Rebecca idiay tolda ni Sarah nga inana ket innalana daytoy, ket nagbalin nga asawana ken inayatna. Naliwliwa ngarud ni Isaac kalpasan a natay ni nanangna.
And Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah’s tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife; and he loved her: and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s [death].
