以撒居基拉耳
26 在亞伯拉罕的日子那地有一次饑荒，這時又有饑荒，以撒就往基拉耳去，到非利士人的王亞比米勒那裡。 2 耶和華向以撒顯現，說：「你不要下埃及去，要住在我所指示你的地。 3 你寄居在這地，我必與你同在，賜福給你，因為我要將這些地都賜給你和你的後裔，我必堅定我向你父亞伯拉罕所起的誓。 4 我要加增你的後裔，像天上的星那樣多，又要將這些地都賜給你的後裔，並且地上萬國必因你的後裔得福。 5 都因亞伯拉罕聽從我的話，遵守我的吩咐和我的命令、律例、法度。」
受亞比米勒之責
6 以撒就住在基拉耳。 7 那地方的人問到他的妻子，他便說：「那是我的妹子。」原來他怕說「是我的妻子」。他心裡想：「恐怕這地方的人為利百加的緣故殺我，因為她容貌俊美。」 8 他在那裡住了許久。有一天，非利士人的王亞比米勒從窗戶裡往外觀看，見以撒和他的妻子利百加戲玩。 9 亞比米勒召了以撒來，對他說：「她實在是你的妻子，你怎麼說她是你的妹子？」以撒說：「我心裡想，恐怕我因她而死。」 10 亞比米勒說：「你向我們做的是什麼事呢？民中險些有人和你的妻同寢，把我們陷在罪裡！」 11 於是亞比米勒曉諭眾民說：「凡沾著這個人，或是他妻子的，定要把他治死。」
12 以撒在那地耕種，那一年有百倍的收成。耶和華賜福給他， 13 他就昌大，日增月盛，成了大富戶。 14 他有羊群、牛群，又有許多僕人，非利士人就嫉妒他。 15 當他父親亞伯拉罕在世的日子他父親的僕人所挖的井，非利士人全都塞住，填滿了土。 16 亞比米勒對以撒說：「你離開我們去吧，因為你比我們強盛得多。」 17 以撒就離開那裡，在基拉耳谷支搭帳篷，住在那裡。
18 當他父親亞伯拉罕在世之日所挖的水井，因非利士人在亞伯拉罕死後塞住了，以撒就重新挖出來，仍照他父親所叫的叫那些井的名字。 19 以撒的僕人在谷中挖井，便得了一口活水井。 20 基拉耳的牧人與以撒的牧人爭競，說：「這水是我們的。」以撒就給那井起名叫埃色[a]，因為他們和他相爭。 21 以撒的僕人又挖了一口井，他們又為這井爭競，因此以撒給這井起名叫西提拿[b]。 22 以撒離開那裡，又挖了一口井，他們不為這井爭競了，他就給那井起名叫利河伯[c]。他說：「耶和華現在給我們寬闊之地，我們必在這地昌盛。」
23 以撒從那裡上別是巴去。 24 當夜耶和華向他顯現，說：「我是你父親亞伯拉罕的神，不要懼怕，因為我與你同在，要賜福給你，並要為我僕人亞伯拉罕的緣故，使你的後裔繁多。」 25 以撒就在那裡築了一座壇，求告耶和華的名，並且支搭帳篷。他的僕人便在那裡挖了一口井。
以撒與亞比米勒結盟
26 亞比米勒同他的朋友亞戶撒和他的軍長非各，從基拉耳來見以撒。 27 以撒對他們說：「你們既然恨我，打發我走了，為什麼到我這裡來呢？」 28 他們說：「我們明明地看見耶和華與你同在，便說，不如我們兩下彼此起誓，彼此立約， 29 使你不害我們，正如我們未曾害你，一味地厚待你，並且打發你平平安安地走。你是蒙耶和華賜福的了。」 30 以撒就為他們設擺筵席，他們便吃了喝了。 31 他們清早起來彼此起誓。以撒打發他們走，他們就平平安安地離開他走了。 32 那一天，以撒的僕人來，將挖井的事告訴他，說：「我們得了水了。」 33 他就給那井起名叫示巴。因此那城叫做別是巴，直到今日。
以掃娶二妻
34 以掃四十歲的時候，娶了赫人比利的女兒猶滴與赫人以倫的女兒巴實抹為妻。 35 她們常使以撒和利百加心裡愁煩。

以撒寄居基拉耳
26 亚伯拉罕在世的时候，那地方闹过一次饥荒，这时又闹饥荒。以撒就迁到基拉耳的非利士王亚比米勒那里。 2 耶和华向以撒显现说：“不要下埃及去，要住在我指示你住的地方。 3 你寄居在这里，我必与你同在，赐福给你，因为我必把这些土地赐给你和你的后代，坚立我对你父亲亚伯拉罕的誓约。 4 我必使你的后代多如繁星，将这些土地都赐给他们，天下万国必因你的后裔而蒙福。 5 因为亚伯拉罕听从我的话，遵守我的吩咐、命令、典章和律法。”
亚比米勒斥责以撒
6 于是，以撒就在基拉耳住下来。 7 那里的人问起他的妻子时，他便说：“她是我妹妹。”他不敢说：“她是我妻子。”他担心当地的人会因为利百加而害他，因为利百加长得非常美丽。 8 以撒在那里住了许久。一天，非利士王亚比米勒从窗口看见以撒和利百加亲热的情形， 9 便召见以撒，问他：“她明明是你妻子，为什么你说她是你妹妹呢？”以撒回答说：“我担心别人为了她而杀害我！” 10 亚比米勒说：“你怎么可以这样对我们呢？万一百姓中有人想占有她，你就使我们陷入罪中了。” 11 于是，亚比米勒下令全国：凡伤害他们二人的，必被处死。
12 以撒在那里耕种，耶和华赐福给他，那一年他得了百倍的收成。 13 他的财富越来越多，成了大富户。 14 他拥有很多的牛羊和仆婢，非利士人嫉妒他。 15 他父亲亚伯拉罕生前派人挖的那些水井，全被非利士人用土塞住了。 16 亚比米勒对以撒说：“请你离开我们吧，因为你太强盛了。” 17 以撒就离开那里，把帐篷迁往基拉耳谷居住。 18 他的父亲亚伯拉罕生前挖的水井都被非利士人塞住了，以撒便重新挖开，并沿用父亲生前给那些水井起的名字。 19 以撒的牧人在谷中挖得一口活水井， 20 基拉耳的牧人与以撒的牧人争吵起来，都说：“这口井是我们的。”于是，以撒便称那口井为埃色[a]。 21 后来，以撒的仆人又挖了一口井，他们双方又为那口井发生争执，以撒便称那口井为西提拿[b]。 22 以撒离开那里，又挖了一口水井。这次，他们没有为那口井争吵。所以，以撒称那口井为利河伯[c]。以撒说：“如今耶和华给了我们一个宽阔的地方，我们可以在这里繁荣兴旺。”
23 以撒从那里上别示巴去。 24 当天晚上，耶和华向他显现说：“我是你父亲亚伯拉罕的上帝。你不用惧怕，因为我与你同在。为了我仆人亚伯拉罕的缘故，我必赐福给你，使你子孙众多。” 25 以撒在那里筑了一座坛求告耶和华，并且在那里搭起帐篷住下来。他的仆人又在那里挖了一口井。
以撒和亚比米勒起誓立约
26 一天，亚比米勒带着他的参谋亚户撒、将领非各从基拉耳来见以撒。 27 以撒见到他们就说：“你们既然憎恨我，把我赶走，为什么又来找我？” 28 他们回答说：“我们清楚知道耶和华与你同在，我们双方应该订立誓约。 29 请你起誓保证不会伤害我们，就像我们没有侵犯你，总是善待你，让你平安地离开一样。你是蒙耶和华赐福的人。” 30 于是，以撒为他们摆设宴席，一同吃喝。 31 第二天早晨，以撒和他们互相起誓之后，送他们平安地离去。 32 在同一天，以撒的仆人将挖井的事告诉他，说：“我们找到水了。” 33 以撒便称那口井为示巴[d]，因此那城叫别示巴，沿用至今。
以扫娶妻
34 以扫四十岁时，娶了赫人比利的女儿犹蒂与赫人以伦的女儿巴实抹。 35 她们二人常使以撒和利百加伤心。
Genesis 26
English Standard Version
God's Promise to Isaac
26 Now there was a famine in the land, besides (A)the former famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to Gerar to (B)Abimelech king of the (C)Philistines. 2 And the Lord appeared to him and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; dwell (D)in the land of which I shall tell you. 3 (E)Sojourn in this land, and (F)I will be with you and will bless you, for (G)to you and to your offspring I will give all these lands, and I will establish (H)the oath that I swore to Abraham your father. 4 (I)I will multiply your offspring as the stars of heaven and will give to your offspring all these lands. And (J)in your offspring all the nations of the earth shall be blessed, 5 because (K)Abraham obeyed my voice and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”
Isaac and Abimelech
6 So Isaac settled in Gerar. 7 When the men of the place asked him about his wife, (L)he said, “She is my sister,” for (M)he feared to say, “My wife,” thinking, “lest the men of the place should kill me because of Rebekah,” because (N)she was attractive in appearance. 8 When he had been there a long time, Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out of a window and saw Isaac laughing with[a] Rebekah his wife. 9 So Abimelech called Isaac and said, “Behold, she is your wife. How then could you say, ‘She is my sister’?” Isaac said to him, “Because I thought, ‘Lest I die because of her.’” 10 Abimelech said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and (O)you would have brought guilt upon us.” 11 So Abimelech warned all the people, saying, “Whoever touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”
12 And Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. The Lord (P)blessed him, 13 and the man became rich, and gained more and more until he became very wealthy. 14 He had possessions of flocks and herds and many servants, so that the Philistines (Q)envied him. 15 (Now the Philistines had stopped and filled with earth all the wells (R)that his father's servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father.) 16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you are much mightier than we.”
17 So Isaac departed from there and encamped in the Valley of Gerar and settled there. 18 And Isaac dug again the wells of water that had been dug in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines had stopped after the death of Abraham. And (S)he gave them the names that his father had given them. 19 But when Isaac's servants dug in the valley and found there a well of spring water, 20 the herdsmen of Gerar (T)quarreled with Isaac's herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” So he called the name of the well Esek,[b] because they contended with him. 21 Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that also, so he called its name Sitnah.[c] 22 And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name Rehoboth,[d] saying, “For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall be fruitful in the land.”
23 From there he went up to Beersheba. 24 And the Lord appeared to him the same night and said, (U)“I am the God of Abraham your father. (V)Fear not, for (W)I am with you and will bless you and multiply your offspring for my servant Abraham's sake.” 25 So he (X)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.
26 When Abimelech went to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath his adviser and (Y)Phicol the commander of his army, 27 Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, seeing that you hate me and (Z)have sent me away from you?” 28 They said, “We see plainly that the Lord has been with you. So we said, let there be a sworn pact between us, between you and us, and let us make a covenant with you, 29 that you will do us no harm, just as we have not touched you and have done to you nothing but good and have sent you away in peace. (AA)You are now the blessed of the Lord.” 30 So he made them a feast, and they ate and drank. 31 In the morning they rose early and (AB)exchanged oaths. And Isaac sent them on their way, and they departed from him in peace. 32 That same day Isaac's servants came and told him about the well that they had dug and said to him, “We have found water.” 33 He called it Shibah;[e] therefore the name of the city is (AC)Beersheba to this day.
34 When Esau was forty years old, he took (AD)Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite to be his wife, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite, 35 and (AE)they made life bitter[f] for Isaac and Rebekah.

Yahweh Establishes the Oath with Isaac
26 Now there was (A)a famine in the land, besides the previous famine that had occurred in the days of Abraham. So Isaac went to Gerar, to (B)Abimelech king of the Philistines. 2 And Yahweh (C)appeared to him and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; (D)dwell in the land of which I shall tell you. 3 Sojourn in this land, and (E)I will be with you and (F)bless you, for (G)to you and to your seed I will give all these lands, and I will establish (H)the oath which I swore to your father Abraham. 4 (I)And I will multiply your seed as the stars of heaven, and I will give your seed all these lands; and (J)by your seed all the nations of the earth [a]shall be blessed; 5 because Abraham (K)listened to My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.”
Isaac and Abimelech
6 So Isaac [b]lived in Gerar. 7 Then the men of the place asked about his wife. And he said, “(L)She is my sister,” for he was (M)afraid to say, “my wife,” thinking, “lest the men of the place kill me on account of Rebekah, for she is (N)beautiful in appearance.” 8 Now it happened, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked out through a window and saw, and behold, Isaac was [c]caressing his wife Rebekah. 9 Then Abimelech called Isaac and said, “Behold, surely she is your wife! How then did you say, ‘She is my sister’?” And Isaac said to him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die on account of her.’” 10 (O)And Abimelech said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt upon us.” 11 So Abimelech commanded all the people, saying, “He who (P)touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”
12 And Isaac sowed in that land and [d]reaped in the same year one hundredfold. And (Q)Yahweh blessed him, 13 and the man (R)became great and continued to grow greater until he became very great; 14 and (S)he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and many servants, so that the Philistines were jealous of him. 15 Now (T)all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines stopped up [e]by filling them with earth. 16 Then Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for you are [f](U)too mighty for us.” 17 And Isaac departed from there and camped in the valley of Gerar and [g]settled there.
The Quarrel over the Wells
18 Then Isaac dug again the wells of water which [h]had been dug in the days of his father Abraham, but the Philistines had stopped them up after the death of Abraham; and he [i]called them by the same names by which his father had called them. 19 Then Isaac’s servants dug in the valley and found there a well of [j]flowing water. 20 And the herdsmen of Gerar (V)contended with the herdsmen of Isaac, saying, “The water is ours!” So he named the well [k]Esek, because they quarreled with him. 21 Then they dug another well, and they contended over it also, so he called it [l]Sitnah. 22 Then he moved away from there and dug another well, and they did not contend over it; so he named it [m]Rehoboth, and he said, “[n](W)At last Yahweh has made [o]room for us, and we will be (X)fruitful in the land.”
23 And he went up from there to (Y)Beersheba. 24 And Yahweh (Z)appeared to him that night and said,
“(AA)I am the God of your father Abraham;
(AB)Do not fear, for I am with you.
I (AC)will bless you and multiply your seed,
For the sake of My servant Abraham.”
25 So he built an (AD)altar there and called upon the name of Yahweh and pitched his tent there; and there Isaac’s servants dug out a well.
Isaac’s Oath with Abimelech
26 Now (AE)Abimelech came to him from Gerar [p]with his adviser Ahuzzath and Phicol the commander of his army. 27 And Isaac said to them, “(AF)Why have you come to me, since you hate me and have sent me away from you?” 28 Then they said, “We see plainly (AG)that Yahweh has been with you; so we said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us—between [q]you and us—and let us cut a covenant with you, 29 that you will do us no harm, just as we have not touched you [r]and have done to you nothing but good and have sent you away in peace. You are now the (AH)blessed of Yahweh.’” 30 Then (AI)he made them a feast, and they ate and drank. 31 In the morning they arose early, and (AJ)each swore to [s]the other; then Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace. 32 Now it happened on that day, that Isaac’s servants came in and told him about the well which they had dug and said to him, “We have found water.” 33 So he called it Shibah; therefore the name of the city is (AK)Beersheba to this day.
34 And Esau was forty years old, (AL)and he took as a wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and also Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite; 35 and (AM)they [t]brought bitterness to Isaac and Rebekah.
