Genesis 26
1 and famine is becoming in
land from aside of the famine the former, which was in days of Abraham; and
Isaac is going to Abimelech, king of Philistines, Gerar ward. 2 and Yahweh is
appearing to him, and saying: must not be you are going down Egypt ward;
tabernacle in land, which I am saying to you! 3 sojourn in the land the this,
and I shall become with you, and I shall bless you, that to you and to your
seed I shall give all the lands the these; and I carry out the oath, which I
swore to Abraham your father. 4 and I increase your seed as stars of the
heavens, and give to your seed all of the lands the these, and they bless
themselves in your seed all nations of the earth. 5 inasmuch which Abraham
listened in my voice and is keeping my charge, instructions, statutes and laws.
6 and Isaac is dwelling in Gerar. 7 and mortals of the place are asking to his
woman; and he is saying: she my sister. 8 and he is becoming, that the days
were long to him there, and Abimelech, king of Philistines, is gazing through
the window and seeing, and behold: Isaac making fun with Rebecca, his woman! 9
and Abimelech is calling to Isaac and saying: yea, behold, she your woman; and
how you said: she my sister? And Isaac is saying to him: that I said, lest I am
dying on her. 10 and Abimelech is saying: what this you did to us? As little
one of the people lay down with your woman; and you brought guilt on us. 11 and
Abimelech is instructing all the people, to say: the one touching in man the
this and in his woman to be put to death, shall be put to death. 12 and Isaac
is sowing in land the she; and he is finding in year the she hundred barleys;
and Yahweh is blessing him. 13 and the man is growing great; and going to go, and
growing great until that he was exceedingly great. 14 and acquisition of flock
was to him, and acquisition of herd, and many servant, and Philistines are
being jealous him. 15 and all the wells which servants of his father in days of
Abraham, his father, delved, Philistines stopped up them; and they are filling
them soil. 16 and he is saying Abimelech to Isaac go you ! from with us that
you are staunch from us exceedingly. 17 and he is going from there Isaac and he
is camping in watercourse of Gerar and he is dwelling there. 18 and Isaac is
returning and delving wells of the waters, which they delved in days of
Abraham, his father, and Philistines are stopping up them after death of
Abraham; and he is calling to them names as the names which his father called
to them. 19 and servants of Isaac are delving in watercourse, and finding there
well of living waters. 20 and shepherds of Gerar are contending with shepherds
of Isaac, to say: to us the waters; and he is calling name of the well Esek, that they showed themselves extortionate with him. 21
and they are delving another well, and they are contending moreover over her,
and he is calling her name Sitnah. 22 and he is
shifting from there, and he is delving another well, and they not contended
over her, and he is calling her name Rehoboth; and he is saying: that now
Yahweh widens for us, and we are fruitful in the land. 23 and he is going up
from there Beer~Sheba. 24 and Yahweh is appearing to him in night the he, and
saying: I Elohim of Abraham, your father; must not be you are fearing, that I
with you, and bless you, and increase your seed in sake Abraham, my servant. 25
and he is building there altar; and he is calling in name of Yahweh and
stretching out there his tent; and servants of Isaac are digging there well. 26
and Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath
his associate, and Phicol chief of his host. 27 and
Isaac is saying to them: for what reason you come to me, and you hate and are
sending away me from with you? 28 and they are saying: to see we see, that
Yahweh became with you, and we are saying: she shall become, please,
imprecation between us; between us and between you; and we shall cut covenant
with you! 29 should not be you are doing with us evil as which not we touched
you and as which we did with you but good and we are sending away you in peace;
you now being blessed of Yahweh. 30 and he is making for them feast; and they
are eating and drinking. 31 and they are rising early in morning and swearing
man to his brother, and Isaac is sending them away; and they are going from
with him in peace. 32 and he is becoming in the day the he, and they are
coming, servants of Isaac, and they are telling to him on cases of the well
which they delved and are saying to him: we found waters. 33 and he is calling
her Sheba; on so name of the city Beer~Sheba until the this day.
34 and Esau was son of forty
year; and he is taking woman: Judith, daughter of Beeri,
the Hittite; and Bashemath, daughter of Elon, the
Hittite. 35 and they are becoming bitterness of spirit to Isaac
and Rebecca.
