1And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.1וַֽיהוָ֛ה פָּקַ֥ד אֶת־ שָׂרָ֖ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֣ר אָמָ֑ר וַיַּ֧עַשׂ יְהוָ֛ה לְשָׂרָ֖ה כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֵּֽר׃
2For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.2וַתַּהַר֩ וַתֵּ֨לֶד שָׂרָ֧ה לְאַבְרָהָ֛ם בֵּ֖ן לִזְקֻנָ֑יו לַמּוֹעֵ֕ד אֲשֶׁר־ דִּבֶּ֥ר אֹת֖וֹ אֱלֹהִֽים׃
3And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.3וַיִּקְרָ֨א אַבְרָהָ֜ם אֶֽת־ שֶׁם־ בְּנ֧וֹ הַנּֽוֹלַד־ ל֛וֹ אֲשֶׁר־ יָלְדָה־ לּ֥וֹ שָׂרָ֖ה יִצְחָֽק׃
4And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.4וַיָּ֤מָל אַבְרָהָם֙ אֶת־ יִצְחָ֣ק בְּנ֔וֹ בֶּן־ שְׁמֹנַ֖ת יָמִ֑ים כַּאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה אֹת֖וֹ אֱלֹהִֽים׃
5And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.5וְאַבְרָהָ֖ם בֶּן־ מְאַ֣ת שָׁנָ֑ה בְּהִוָּ֣לֶד ל֔וֹ אֵ֖ת יִצְחָ֥ק בְּנֽוֹ׃
6And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.6וַתֹּ֣אמֶר שָׂרָ֔ה צְחֹ֕ק עָ֥שָׂה לִ֖י אֱלֹהִ֑ים כָּל־ הַשֹּׁמֵ֖עַ יִֽצְחַק־ לִֽי׃
7And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.7וַתֹּ֗אמֶר מִ֤י מִלֵּל֙ לְאַבְרָהָ֔ם הֵינִ֥יקָה בָנִ֖ים שָׂרָ֑ה כִּֽי־ יָלַ֥דְתִּי בֵ֖ן לִזְקֻנָֽיו׃
8And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.8וַיִּגְדַּ֥ל הַיֶּ֖לֶד וַיִּגָּמַ֑ל וַיַּ֤עַשׂ אַבְרָהָם֙ מִשְׁתֶּ֣ה גָד֔וֹל בְּי֖וֹם הִגָּמֵ֥ל אֶת־ יִצְחָֽק׃
9And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.9וַתֵּ֨רֶא שָׂרָ֜ה אֶֽת־ בֶּן־ הָגָ֧ר הַמִּצְרִ֛ית אֲשֶׁר־ יָלְדָ֥ה לְאַבְרָהָ֖ם מְצַחֵֽק׃
10Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.10וַתֹּ֙אמֶר֙ לְאַבְרָהָ֔ם גָּרֵ֛שׁ הָאָמָ֥ה הַזֹּ֖את וְאֶת־ בְּנָ֑הּ כִּ֣י לֹ֤א יִירַשׁ֙ בֶּן־ הָאָמָ֣ה הַזֹּ֔את עִם־ בְּנִ֖י עִם־ יִצְחָֽק׃
11And the thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight because of his son.11וַיֵּ֧רַע הַדָּבָ֛ר מְאֹ֖ד בְּעֵינֵ֣י אַבְרָהָ֑ם עַ֖ל אוֹדֹ֥ת בְּנֽוֹ׃
12And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.12וַיֹּ֨אמֶר אֱלֹהִ֜ים אֶל־ אַבְרָהָ֗ם אַל־ יֵרַ֤ע בְּעֵינֶ֙יךָ֙ עַל־ הַנַּ֣עַר וְעַל־ אֲמָתֶ֔ךָ כֹּל֩ אֲשֶׁ֨ר תֹּאמַ֥ר אֵלֶ֛יךָ שָׂרָ֖ה שְׁמַ֣ע בְּקֹלָ֑הּ כִּ֣י בְיִצְחָ֔ק יִקָּרֵ֥א לְךָ֖ זָֽרַע׃
13And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.13וְגַ֥ם אֶת־ בֶּן־ הָאָמָ֖ה לְג֣וֹי אֲשִׂימֶ֑נּוּ כִּ֥י זַרְעֲךָ֖ הֽוּא׃
14And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.14וַיַּשְׁכֵּ֣ם אַבְרָהָ֣ם ׀ בַּבֹּ֡קֶר וַיִּֽקַּֽח־ לֶחֶם֩ וְחֵ֨מַת מַ֜יִם וַיִּתֵּ֣ן אֶל־ הָ֠גָר שָׂ֧ם עַל־ שִׁכְמָ֛הּ וְאֶת־ הַיֶּ֖לֶד וַֽיְשַׁלְּחֶ֑הָ וַתֵּ֣לֶךְ וַתֵּ֔תַע בְּמִדְבַּ֖ר בְּאֵ֥ר שָֽׁבַע׃
15And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.15וַיִּכְל֥וּ הַמַּ֖יִם מִן־ הַחֵ֑מֶת וַתַּשְׁלֵ֣ךְ אֶת־ הַיֶּ֔לֶד תַּ֖חַת אַחַ֥ד הַשִּׂיחִֽם׃
16And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him, and lift up her voice, and wept.16וַתֵּלֶךְ֩ וַתֵּ֨שֶׁב לָ֜הּ מִנֶּ֗גֶד הַרְחֵק֙ כִּמְטַחֲוֵ֣י קֶ֔שֶׁת כִּ֣י אָֽמְרָ֔ה אַל־ אֶרְאֶ֖ה בְּמ֣וֹת הַיָּ֑לֶד וַתֵּ֣שֶׁב מִנֶּ֔גֶד וַתִּשָּׂ֥א אֶת־ קֹלָ֖הּ וַתֵּֽבְךְּ׃
17And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.17וַיִּשְׁמַ֣ע אֱלֹהִים֮ אֶת־ ק֣וֹל הַנַּעַר֒ וַיִּקְרָא֩ מַלְאַ֨ךְ אֱלֹהִ֤ים ׀ אֶל־ הָגָר֙ מִן־ הַשָּׁמַ֔יִם וַיֹּ֥אמֶר לָ֖הּ מַה־ לָּ֣ךְ הָגָ֑ר אַל־ תִּ֣ירְאִ֔י כִּֽי־ שָׁמַ֧ע אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֶל־ ק֥וֹל הַנַּ֖עַר בַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר הוּא־ שָֽׁם׃
18Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.18ק֚וּמִי שְׂאִ֣י אֶת־ הַנַּ֔עַר וְהַחֲזִ֥יקִי אֶת־ יָדֵ֖ךְ בּ֑וֹ כִּֽי־ לְג֥וֹי גָּד֖וֹל אֲשִׂימֶֽנּוּ׃
19And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.19וַיִּפְקַ֤ח אֱלֹהִים֙ אֶת־ עֵינֶ֔יהָ וַתֵּ֖רֶא בְּאֵ֣ר מָ֑יִם וַתֵּ֜לֶךְ וַתְּמַלֵּ֤א אֶת־ הַחֵ֙מֶת֙ מַ֔יִם וַתַּ֖שְׁקְ אֶת־ הַנָּֽעַר׃
20And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.20וַיְהִ֧י אֱלֹהִ֛ים אֶת־ הַנַּ֖עַר וַיִּגְדָּ֑ל וַיֵּ֙שֶׁב֙ בַּמִּדְבָּ֔ר וַיְהִ֖י רֹבֶ֥ה קַשָּֽׁת׃
21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.21וַיֵּ֖שֶׁב בְּמִדְבַּ֣ר פָּארָ֑ן וַתִּֽקַּֽח־ ל֥וֹ אִמּ֛וֹ אִשָּׁ֖ה מֵאֶ֥רֶץ מִצְרָֽיִם׃ פ
22And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest:22וַֽיְהִי֙ בָּעֵ֣ת הַהִ֔וא וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ וּפִיכֹל֙ שַׂר־ צְבָא֔וֹ אֶל־ אַבְרָהָ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר אֱלֹהִ֣ים עִמְּךָ֔ בְּכֹ֥ל אֲשֶׁר־ אַתָּ֖ה עֹשֶֽׂה׃
23Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.23וְעַתָּ֗ה הִשָּׁ֨בְעָה לִּ֤י בֵֽאלֹהִים֙ הֵ֔נָּה אִם־ תִּשְׁקֹ֣ר לִ֔י וּלְנִינִ֖י וּלְנֶכְדִּ֑י כַּחֶ֜סֶד אֲשֶׁר־ עָשִׂ֤יתִי עִמְּךָ֙ תַּעֲשֶׂ֣ה עִמָּדִ֔י וְעִם־ הָאָ֖רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־ גַּ֥רְתָּה בָּֽהּ׃
24And Abraham said, I will swear.24וַיֹּ֙אמֶר֙ אַבְרָהָ֔ם אָנֹכִ֖י אִשָּׁבֵֽעַ׃
25And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.25וְהוֹכִ֥חַ אַבְרָהָ֖ם אֶת־ אֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ עַל־ אֹדוֹת֙ בְּאֵ֣ר הַמַּ֔יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר גָּזְל֖וּ עַבְדֵ֥י אֲבִימֶֽלֶךְ׃
26And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to day.26וַיֹּ֣אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֔לֶךְ לֹ֣א יָדַ֔עְתִּי מִ֥י עָשָׂ֖ה אֶת־ הַדָּבָ֣ר הַזֶּ֑ה וְגַם־ אַתָּ֞ה לֹא־ הִגַּ֣דְתָּ לִּ֗י וְגַ֧ם אָנֹכִ֛י לֹ֥א שָׁמַ֖עְתִּי בִּלְתִּ֥י הַיּֽוֹם׃
27And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.27וַיִּקַּ֤ח אַבְרָהָם֙ צֹ֣אן וּבָקָ֔ר וַיִּתֵּ֖ן לַאֲבִימֶ֑לֶךְ וַיִּכְרְת֥וּ שְׁנֵיהֶ֖ם בְּרִֽית׃
28And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.28וַיַּצֵּ֣ב אַבְרָהָ֗ם אֶת־ שֶׁ֛בַע כִּבְשֹׂ֥ת הַצֹּ֖אן לְבַדְּהֶֽן׃
29And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?29וַיֹּ֥אמֶר אֲבִימֶ֖לֶךְ אֶל־ אַבְרָהָ֑ם מָ֣ה הֵ֗נָּה שֶׁ֤בַע כְּבָשֹׂת֙ הָאֵ֔לֶּה אֲשֶׁ֥ר הִצַּ֖בְתָּ לְבַדָּֽנָה׃
30And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.30וַיֹּ֕אמֶר כִּ֚י אֶת־ שֶׁ֣בַע כְּבָשֹׂ֔ת תִּקַּ֖ח מִיָּדִ֑י בַּעֲבוּר֙ תִּֽהְיֶה־ לִּ֣י לְעֵדָ֔ה כִּ֥י חָפַ֖רְתִּי אֶת־ הַבְּאֵ֥ר הַזֹּֽאת׃
31Wherefore he called that place Beersheba; because there they sware both of them.31עַל־ כֵּ֗ן קָרָ֛א לַמָּק֥וֹם הַה֖וּא בְּאֵ֣ר שָׁ֑בַע כִּ֛י שָׁ֥ם נִשְׁבְּע֖וּ שְׁנֵיהֶֽם׃
32Thus they made a covenant at Beersheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.32וַיִּכְרְת֥וּ בְרִ֖ית בִּבְאֵ֣ר שָׁ֑בַע וַיָּ֣קָם אֲבִימֶ֗לֶךְ וּפִיכֹל֙ שַׂר־ צְבָא֔וֹ וַיָּשֻׁ֖בוּ אֶל־ אֶ֥רֶץ פְּלִשְׁתִּֽים׃
33And Abraham planted a grove in Beersheba, and called there on the name of the LORD, the everlasting God.33וַיִּטַּ֥ע אֶ֖שֶׁל בִּבְאֵ֣ר שָׁ֑בַע וַיִּ֨קְרָא־ שָׁ֔ם בְּשֵׁ֥ם יְהוָ֖ה אֵ֥ל עוֹלָֽם׃
34And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines' land many days.34וַיָּ֧גָר אַבְרָהָ֛ם בְּאֶ֥רֶץ פְּלִשְׁתִּ֖ים יָמִ֥ים רַבִּֽים׃ פ
