26 At nagkagutom sa lupain, bukod sa unang pagkakagutom na nangyari ng mga araw ni Abraham. At naparoon si Isaac kay Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa Gerar.

At napakita ang Panginoon sa kaniya, at nagsabi, Huwag kang bumaba sa Egipto; matira ka sa lupaing aking sasabihin sa iyo:

Matira ka sa lupaing ito, at ako'y sasa iyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain; sapagka't sa iyo at sa iyong binhi ay ibibigay ko ang lahat ng lupaing ito, at pagtitibayin ko ang sumpang aking isinumpa kay Abraham na iyong ama;

At aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi na gaya ng mga bituin sa langit, at ibibigay ko sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng lupaing ito: at pagpapalain sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng bansa sa lupa;

Sapagka't sinunod ni Abraham ang aking tinig, at ginanap ang aking bilin, ang aking mga utos, ang aking mga palatuntunan at ang aking mga kautusan.

At tumahan si Isaac sa Gerar.

At tinanong siya ng mga taong tagaroon tungkol sa kaniyang asawa; at sinabi niya, Siya'y aking kapatid; sapagka't natakot na sabihin, Siya'y aking asawa: baka ako'y patayin, aniya, ng mga taong tagarito, dahil kay Rebeca; dahil sa siya'y may magandang anyo.

At nangyari nang siya'y naroong mahabang panahon, na dumungaw si Abimelech, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa isang durungawan, at tumingin, at narito't si Isaac ay nakikipaglaro kay Rebeca na kaniyang asawa.

At tinawag ni Abimelech si Isaac, at sa kaniya'y sinabi, Narito, tunay na siya'y iyong asawa: at bakit sinabi mo, Siya'y aking kapatid? At sumagot sa kaniya si Isaac, Sapagka't sinabi ko, Baka ako'y mamatay dahil sa kaniya.

10 At sinabi ni Abimelech, Ano itong ginawa mo sa amin? hindi malayong ang sinoman sa bayan ay nakasiping sa iyong asawa, at sa gayon ay pinapagkasala mo kami.

11 At ibinilin ni Abimelech sa buong bayan, na sinabi, Ang gumalaw sa lalaking ito o sa kaniyang asawa ay tunay na papatayin.

12 At si Isaac ay naghasik sa lupaing yaon, at umani siya ng taong yaon, ng tigisang daan at pinagpala siya ng Panginoon.

13 At naging dakila ang lalake at lalo't lalong naging dakila hanggang sa naging totoong dakila.

14 At siya'y may tinatangkilik na mga kawan, at mga tinatangkilik na mga bakahan, at malaking sangbahayan: at kinainggitan siya ng mga Filisteo.

15 Lahat ng mga balon ngang hinukay ng mga bataan ng kaniyang ama, nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama, ay pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, na mga pinuno ng lupa.

16 At sinabi ni Abimelech kay Isaac; Humiwalay ka sa amin, sapagka't ikaw ay makapupong matibay kay sa amin.

17 At umalis si Isaac doon, at humantong sa libis ng Gerar, at tumahan doon.

18 At muling hinukay ni Isaac ang mga balon ng tubig na kanilang hinukay nang mga kaarawan ni Abraham na kaniyang ama; sapagka't pinagtabunan ng mga Filisteo, pagkamatay ni Abraham: at kaniyang mga pinanganlan ng ayon sa mga pangalang inilagay ng kaniyang ama.

19 At humukay sa libis ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at nangakasumpong doon ng isang balon ng tubig na bumubukal.

20 At nakipagtalo ang mga pastor ni Gerar sa mga pastor ni Isaac, na sinasabi, Amin ang tubig; at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan ng balon, na Esec; sapagka't ipinakipagkaalit sa kaniya.

21 At sila'y humukay ng ibang balon; at kanilang pinagtalunan din: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Sitnah.

22 At bumunot siya roon, at humukay ng ibang balon; at hindi nila pinagtalunan: at kaniyang tinawag ang pangalan na Rehoboth; at kaniyang sinabi, Sapagka't ngayo'y binigyan tayo ng Panginoon ng kaluwagan, at lalago tayo sa lupain.

23 At mula roon ay umahon siya sa Beerseba.

24 At napakita sa kaniya ang Panginoon ng gabi ring yaon, at nagsabi, Ako ang Dios ni Abraham na iyong ama: huwag kang matakot, sapagka't ako'y sumasaiyo, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain, at aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi, alangalang kay Abraham na aking lingkod.

25 At si Isaac ay nagtayo roon ng isang dambana, at kaniyang sinambitla ang pangalan ng Panginoon, at itinindig niya roon ang kaniyang tolda: at humukay roon ang mga bataan ni Isaac ng isang balon.

26 Nang magkagayo'y si Abimelech ay naparoon sa kaniya mula sa Gerar, at si Ahuzath na kaniyang kaibigan, at si Phicol na kapitan ng kaniyang hukbo.

27 At sinabi sa kanila ni Isaac, Bakit kayo naparirito sa akin, dangang kayo'y nangapopoot sa akin at pinalayas ninyo ako sa inyo?

28 At sinabi nila, Malinaw na aming nakita, na ang Panginoon ay sumasaiyo: at aming sinabi, Magkaroon ng pagsusumpaan tayo, kami at ikaw at makipagtipan kami sa iyo:

29 Na hindi ka gagawa sa amin ng masama, gaya naman namin na hindi ka namin ginalaw, at wala kaming ginawa sa iyong di mabuti, at pinayaon ka naming payapa: ikaw ngayon ang pinagpala ng Panginoon.

30 At pinaghandaan niya sila, at sila'y nagkainan at naginuman.

31 At sila'y gumising ng madaling araw, at sila'y nagpanumpaan: at sila'y pinagpaalam ni Isaac, at nagsialis na payapa sa kaniya.

32 At nangyari, nang araw ding yaon, na nagsidating ang mga bataan ni Isaac, at siya'y binalitaan tungkol sa balon nilang hinukay, at sinabi sa kaniya, Nakasumpong kami ng tubig.

33 At tinawag niyang Seba: kaya't ang pangalan ng bayang yaon ay Beerseba hanggang ngayon.

34 At nang si Esau ay may apat na pung taon ay nagasawa kay Judit, na anak ni Beeri na Heteo, at kay Basemat na anak ni Elon na Heteo:

35 At sila'y nakasama ng loob kay Isaac at kay Rebeca.

Nanirahan si Isaac sa Gerar

26 Nagkaroon ng taggutom sa lupain, bukod sa unang taggutom na nangyari nang mga araw ni Abraham. Pumunta si Isaac kay Abimelec, na hari ng mga Filisteo sa Gerar.

At nagpakita ang Panginoon kay Isaac at sinabi, “Huwag kang bumaba sa Ehipto; manatili ka sa lupaing aking sasabihin sa iyo.

Manatili(A) ka sa lupaing ito, at sasamahan kita, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain; sapagkat sa iyo at sa iyong binhi ay ibibigay ko ang lahat ng lupaing ito, at tutuparin ko ang aking ipinangako kay Abraham na iyong ama.

Pararamihin ko ang iyong binhi na gaya ng mga bituin sa langit at ibibigay ko sa iyong binhi ang lahat ng lupaing ito at pagpapalain ang lahat ng bansa sa lupa sa pamamagitan ng iyong binhi,

sapagkat pinakinggan ni Abraham ang aking tinig at sinunod ang aking tagubilin, ang aking mga utos, ang aking mga batas at ang aking mga kautusan.”

Nanirahan si Isaac sa Gerar.

Nilinlang ni Isaac si Abimelec

Tinanong(B) siya ng mga taong taga-roon tungkol sa kanyang asawa, at sinabi niya, “Siya'y aking kapatid;” sapagkat takot siyang sabihin na, “Siya'y aking asawa.” Inakala niya na “baka ako'y patayin ng mga taong taga-rito, dahil kay Rebecca; dahil sa siya'y may magandang anyo.”

Nang siya'y matagal nang naroroon, dumungaw si Abimelec na hari ng mga Filisteo sa isang durungawan, at nakita si Isaac na hinahaplos si Rebecca na kanyang asawa.

Kaya't tinawag ni Abimelec si Isaac at sa kanya'y sinabi, “Asawa mo pala siya! Bakit sinabi mong, ‘Siya'y aking kapatid’?” Sumagot sa kanya si Isaac, “Sapagkat inakala kong baka ako'y mamatay dahil sa kanya.”

10 At sinabi ni Abimelec, “Ano itong ginawa mo sa amin? Paano kung may sumiping sa iyong asawa, at ikaw sana ang naging dahilan upang kami ay magkasala?”

11 Kaya't iniutos ni Abimelec sa buong bayan, “Ang gumalaw sa lalaking ito o sa kanyang asawa ay mamamatay.”

12 At si Isaac ay naghasik sa lupaing iyon, at umani siya ng taong yaon ng makasandaang ibayo. Pinagpala siya ng Panginoon,

13 at naging mayaman ang lalaki at patuloy na naging mayaman hanggang sa naging napakayaman.

14 At siya'y may ari-arian na mga kawan, mga bakahan, at malaking sambahayan; at kinainggitan siya ng mga Filisteo.

15 Lahat ng mga balong hinukay ng mga alipin ng kanyang amang si Abraham ay pinagtatabunan at pinuno ng lupa ng mga Filisteo.

16 Sinabi ni Abimelec kay Isaac, “Humiwalay ka sa amin, sapagkat ikaw ngayon ay higit na malakas kaysa amin.”

17 At umalis si Isaac doon at nagkampo sa libis ng Gerar at nanirahan doon.

18 Muling hinukay ni Isaac ang mga balon ng tubig na kanilang hinukay nang mga araw ni Abraham na kanyang ama; sapagkat pinagtatabunan iyon ng mga Filisteo pagkamatay ni Abraham. Pinangalanan niya ang mga iyon ayon sa mga pangalang itinawag sa kanila ng kanyang ama.

19 Humukay sa libis ang mga alipin ni Isaac at nakatagpo roon ng isang balon ng tubig na bumubukal.

20 Nakipagtalo ang mga pastol ng Gerar sa mga pastol ni Isaac, na sinasabi, “Ang tubig ay amin.” Kanyang tinawag ang pangalan ng balon na Esec[a] sapagkat sila'y nakipagtalo sa kanya.

21 Kaya't sila'y humukay ng ibang balon at muli nilang pinagtalunan, at ito ay tinawag niya sa pangalang Sitnah.[b]

22 Umalis siya roon at humukay ng ibang balon at hindi nila pinagtalunan at ito ay kanyang tinawag sa pangalang Rehobot,[c] at kanyang sinabi, “Sapagkat ngayo'y binigyan tayo ng Panginoon ng kaluwagan at tayo ay magiging mabunga sa lupain.”

23 Mula roon ay umahon siya sa Beer-seba.

24 At nagpakita sa kanya ang Panginoon nang gabi ring iyon at sinabi, “Ako ang Diyos ng iyong amang si Abraham. Huwag kang matakot sapagkat sasamahan kita, at ikaw ay aking pagpapalain, at aking pararamihin ang iyong binhi alang-alang kay Abraham na aking lingkod.”

25 Doon ay nagtayo si Isaac ng isang dambana at tumawag sa pangalan ng Panginoon. Itinayo niya roon ang kanyang tolda at humukay doon ng balon ang mga alipin ni Isaac.

Ang Sumpaan nina Isaac at Abimelec

26 Pagkatapos(C) noo'y pumunta si Abimelec sa kanya mula sa Gerar, kasama si Ahuzath na kanyang tagapayo, at si Ficol na kapitan ng kanyang hukbo.

27 Sinabi sa kanila ni Isaac, “Bakit kayo pumarito sa akin, yamang kayo'y napopoot sa akin at pinalayas ninyo ako?”

28 At sinabi nila, “Malinaw naming nakita na ang Panginoon ay naging kasama mo; kaya't sinasabi namin, ‘Magkaroon tayo ng sumpaan, kami ay makikipagtipan sa iyo,’

29 na hindi ka gagawa sa amin ng masama, gaya rin na hindi ka namin ginalaw, at wala kaming ginawa sa iyong di mabuti, at pinaalis ka naming payapa. Ikaw ngayon ang pinagpala ng Panginoon.”

30 Kaya siya'y nagpahanda ng maraming pagkain para sa kanila, at sila'y kumain at uminom.

31 Kinaumagahan, maaga silang gumising at sila'y nagsumpaan. Sila'y pinalakad na ni Isaac sa kanilang patutunguhan at iniwan nilang payapa si Isaac.

32 Nang araw ding iyon, dumating ang mga alipin ni Isaac at siya'y binalitaan tungkol sa hinukay nilang balon, at sinabi sa kanya, “Nakatagpo kami ng tubig.”

33 Tinawag niya itong Seba[d] kaya't ang pangalan ng bayang iyon ay Beer-seba[e] hanggang ngayon.

Mga Naging Asawa ni Esau

34 Nang si Esau ay apatnapung taong gulang, siya ay nag-asawa kay Judith na anak ni Beeri na Heteo, at kay Basemat na anak ni Elon na Heteo.

35 At ginawa nilang mapait ang buhay para kina Isaac at Rebecca.

26 And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar.

And the Lord appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:

Sojourn in this land, and I will be with thee, and will bless thee; for unto thee, and unto thy seed, I will give all these countries, and I will perform the oath which I sware unto Abraham thy father;

And I will make thy seed to multiply as the stars of heaven, and will give unto thy seed all these countries; and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed;

Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:

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.

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.

And Abimelech called Isaac, and said, Behold, of a surety she is thy wife; and how saidst thou, She is my sister? And Isaac said unto him, Because I said, Lest I die for her.

10 And Abimelech said, What is this thou hast done unto us? one of the people might lightly have lien with thy wife, and thou shouldest have brought guiltiness upon us.

11 And Abimelech charged all his people, saying, He that toucheth this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.

12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and received in the same year an hundredfold: and the Lord blessed him.

13 And the man waxed great, and went forward, and grew until he became very great:

14 For he had possession of flocks, and possession of herds, and great store of servants: and the Philistines envied him.

15 For all the wells which his father's servants had digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped them, and filled them with earth.

16 And Abimelech said unto Isaac, Go from us; for thou art much mightier than we.

17 And Isaac departed thence, and pitched his tent in the valley of Gerar, and dwelt there.

18 And Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged 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.

19 And Isaac's servants digged in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

20 And the herdmen of Gerar did strive with Isaac's herdmen, saying, The water is ours: and he called the name of the well Esek; because they strove with him.

21 And they digged another well, and strove for that also: and he called the name of it Sitnah.

22 And he removed from thence, and digged another well; and for that they strove not: 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.

23 And he went up from thence to Beersheba.

24 And the Lord appeared unto 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.

25 And he builded an altar there, and called upon the name of the Lord, and pitched his tent there: and there Isaac's servants digged a well.

26 Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath one of his friends, and Phichol the chief captain of his army.

27 And Isaac said unto them, Wherefore come ye to me, seeing ye hate me, and have sent me away from you?

28 And they said, We saw certainly that the Lord was with thee: and we said, Let there be now an oath betwixt us, even betwixt us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;

29 That thou wilt do us no hurt, as we have not touched thee, and as we have done unto thee nothing but good, and have sent thee away in peace: thou art now the blessed of the Lord.

30 And he made them a feast, and they did eat and drink.

31 And they rose up betimes in the morning, and sware one to another: and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

32 And it came to pass the same day, that Isaac's servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had digged, and said unto him, We have found water.

33 And he called it Shebah: therefore the name of the city is Beersheba unto this day.

34 And Esau was forty years old when he took to wife Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite:

35 Which were a grief of mind unto Isaac and to Rebekah.

Isaac and Abimelech

26 There was a famine in the land, besides (A)the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went to (B)Abimelech king of the Philistines, in Gerar.

Then the Lord appeared to him and said: (C)“Do not go down to Egypt; live in (D)the land of which I shall tell you. (E)Dwell in this land, and (F)I will be with you and (G)bless you; for to you and your descendants (H)I give all these lands, and I will perform (I)the oath which I swore to Abraham your father. And (J)I will make your descendants multiply as the stars of heaven; I will give to your descendants all these lands; (K)and in your seed all the nations of the earth shall be blessed; (L)because Abraham obeyed My voice and kept My charge, My commandments, My statutes, and My laws.”

So Isaac dwelt in Gerar. And the men of the place asked about his wife. And (M)he said, “She is my sister”; for (N)he was afraid to say, “She is my wife,” because he thought, “lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, because she is (O)beautiful to behold.” Now it came to pass, when he had been there a long time, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looked through a window, and saw, and there was Isaac, [a]showing endearment to Rebekah his wife. Then Abimelech called Isaac and said, “Quite obviously she is your wife; so how could you say, ‘She is my sister’?”

Isaac said to him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die on account of her.’ ”

10 And Abimelech said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might soon have lain with your wife, and (P)you would have brought guilt on us.” 11 So Abimelech charged all his people, saying, “He who (Q)touches this man or his wife shall surely be put to death.”

12 Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year (R)a hundredfold; and the Lord (S)blessed him. 13 The man (T)began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very prosperous; 14 for he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and a great number of servants. So the Philistines (U)envied him. 15 Now the Philistines had stopped up all the wells (V)which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, and they had filled them with earth. 16 And Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go away from us, for (W)you are much mightier than we.”

17 Then Isaac departed from there and [b]pitched his tent in the Valley of Gerar, and dwelt there. 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 up after the death of Abraham. (X)He called them by the names which his father had called them.

19 Also Isaac’s servants dug in the valley, and found a well of running water there. 20 But the herdsmen of Gerar (Y)quarreled with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” So he called the name of the well [c]Esek, because they quarreled with him. 21 Then they dug another well, and they quarreled over that one also. So he called its name [d]Sitnah. 22 And he moved from there and dug another well, and they did not quarrel over it. So he called its name [e]Rehoboth, because he said, “For now the Lord has made room for us, and we shall (Z)be fruitful in the land.”

23 Then he went up from there to Beersheba. 24 And the Lord (AA)appeared to him the same night and said, (AB)“I am the God of your father Abraham; (AC)do not fear, for (AD)I am with you. I will bless you and multiply your descendants for My servant Abraham’s sake.” 25 So he (AE)built an altar there and (AF)called on the name of the Lord, and he pitched his tent there; and there Isaac’s servants dug a well.

26 Then Abimelech came to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath, one of his friends, (AG)and Phichol the commander of his army. 27 And Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, (AH)since you hate me and have (AI)sent me away from you?”

28 But they said, “We have certainly seen that the Lord (AJ)is with you. So we said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, between you and us; and let us make a [f]covenant with you, 29 that you will do us no harm, since we have not touched you, and since we have done nothing to you but good and have sent you away in peace. (AK)You are now the blessed of the Lord.’ ”

30 (AL)So he made them a feast, and they ate and drank. 31 Then they arose early in the morning and (AM)swore an oath with one another; and Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

32 It came to pass the same day that Isaac’s servants came and told him about the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.” 33 So he called it [g]Shebah. (AN)Therefore the name of the city is [h]Beersheba to this day.

34 (AO)When Esau was forty years old, he took as wives Judith the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath the daughter of Elon the Hittite. 35 And (AP)they were a grief of mind to Isaac and Rebekah.
