¹And 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.

¹Quicuan cuißchic jun li cueßej saß li naßajej aßan joß nak quicuan junxil nak toj yoßyo laj Abraham. Laj Isaac cô saß li tenamit Gerar li cuan cuiß laj Abimelec. Laj Abimelec, aßan xreyeb laj filisteo.

²And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of:

²Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixcßutbesi rib chiru laj Isaac ut quixye re: —Matxic saß li tenamit Egipto. Tatcuânk saß li naßajej li tinye âcue.

³Sojourn 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;

³Tatcanâk saß li naßajej aßin li cuancat cuiß anakcuan. Lâin tinberesînk âcue ut tatcuosobtesi. Chixjunil li chßochß aßin tinqßue âcue lâat ut reheb ajcuiß lâ cualal âcßajol re nak tâtzßaklok ru li contrato li quinbânu chak najter riqßuin lâ yucuaß, chan li Dios.

⁴And 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;

⁴Teßnabalokß lâ cualal âcßajol joß xqßuial li chahim chiru choxa. Chixjunil li chßochß aßin tinqßue chokß reheb lâ cualal âcßajol. Chixjunileb li tenamit li teßcuânk saß ruchichßochß teßosobtesîk saß xcßabaßeb lâ cualal âcßajol, chan.

⁵Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.

⁵—Tinbânu aßin âcuiqßuin xban nak laj Abraham quixpâb chi anchal xchßôl li cuâtin ut quixbânu li cßaßru naxye lin chakßrab. Quixbânu chixjunil li quinye re, chan li Kâcuaß Dios.

⁶And Isaac dwelt in Gerar:

⁶Ut laj Isaac quicana chi cuânc saß li tenamit Gerar.

⁷And 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.

⁷Ut eb li cuînk li cuanqueb saß li tenamit aßan queßxpatzß re laj Isaac: —¿Ani li ixk aßan? chanqueb. Laj Isaac quichakßoc ut quixye reheb: —Aßan li cuanab, chan. Quixucuac chixyebal nak lix Rebeca, aßan rixakil xban nak lix Rebeca chßinaßus na-iloc. Aßan quixcßoxla nak mâre teßxcamsi re nak teßxcßam lix Rebeca.

⁸And 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.

⁸Ac xnumeß chic nabal cutan nak laj Abimelec yô chi iloc saß ventana. Quiril nak laj Isaac yô chixkßalunquil lix Rebeca.

⁹And 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.

⁹Laj Abimelec quixbok laj Isaac ut quixye re: —Anakcuan ninnau nak lix Rebeca âcuixakil. ¿Cßaßut nak xaye cue nak âcuanab? chan. Ut laj Isaac quixye re: —Xinye êre chi joßcan xban nak xinxucuac. Xincßoxla nak mâre tinêcamsi xban lix Rebeca, chan.

¹⁰And 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.

¹⁰Laj Abimelec quixye re laj Isaac: —¿Cßaßut nak xabânu ke chi joßcaßin? —¿Cßaßut nak xoâbalakßi? Cui ta incßaß xkanau nak âcuixakil lix Rebeca, mâre xchapeß raj xban junak li cuînk li cuan saß katenamit. Cui xbânu raj aßin, lâat raj cuan âcue nak xkabânu li mâc aßin, chan.

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

¹¹Ut laj Abimelec quixye reheb chixjunileb li cristian: —Li ani tâchßißchßißînk re li cuînk aßin joß ajcuiß li rixakil tâcamsîk, chan.

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

¹²Saß li chihab aßan laj Isaac qui-au saß li naßajej aßan. Ut kßaxal cuißchic nabal li ru li racuîmk li quixxoc xban nak li Kâcuaß Dios quirosobtesi laj Isaac.

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

¹³Cßajoß nak quitam li cßaßru re. Quibiomoß chi us.

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

¹⁴Cßajoß lix quetômk. Cuanqueb ajcuiß nabal lix môs. Ut eb laj filisteo queßoc chixcakalinquil laj Isaac.

¹⁵For 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.

¹⁵Chixjunil li becbil haß li queßxbec lix môseb laj Abraham xyucuaß laj Isaac, eb laj filisteo queßxbutß chßochß chi saß.

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

¹⁶Ut laj Abimelec quixye re laj Isaac: —Kßaxal us cui tat-êlk saß li katenamit xban nak yô chi nimânc âcuanquil, chan.

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

¹⁷Ut laj Isaac queßel aran ut cô toj saß li ru takßa re Gerar. Ut aran queßcana chi cuânc.

¹⁸And 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.

¹⁸Laj Isaac quixtakla cuißchic xbecbaleb lix julel li haß li queßxbec nak toj yoßyôk laj Abraham, li queßxbutß eb laj filisteo nak ac xcam laj Abraham. Lix cßabaßeb li qßuebil chak junxil xban laj Abraham, aßan cuißchic quixqßue chokß xcßabaß laj Isaac.

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

¹⁹Saß jun li cutan eb lix môs laj Isaac yôqueb chixbecbal jun chic lix julel haß saß li ru takßa nak queßxtau jun yußam haß.

²⁰And 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.

²⁰Eb laj ilol quetômk re Gerar queßpletic riqßuineb li nequeßiloc re xquetômk laj Isaac. Queßxye reheb: —Li yußam haß aßin, ke lâo, chanqueb. Xban nak queßpletic, laj Isaac quixqßue Esek chokß xcßabaß li yußam haß aßan.

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

²¹Ut lix môs laj Isaac queßxbec jun chic lix julel haß. Ut quicuan cuißchic li plêt chirix lix julel haß aßan. Ut laj Isaac quixqßue Sitna chokß xcßabaß lix julel haß aßan.

²²And 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.

²²Ut laj Isaac queßel aran ut queßcôeb saß jalan chic naßajej. Ut aran queßxbec jun chic lix julel haß. Aran mâ ani chic queßchßißchßißin re chirix li becbil haß. Laj Isaac quixqßue Rehobot chokß xcßabaß li becbil haß aßan. Ut laj Isaac quixye: —Anakcuan li Kâcuaß Dios xoxtenkßa chixtaubal jun li kanaßaj châbil. Sa chic tocuânk arin ut tâcuânk chixjunil li cßaßru ke, chan.

²³And he went up from thence to Beersheba.

²³Ut laj Isaac cô saß li naßajej Beerseba.

²⁴And 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.

²⁴Saß li kßojyîn aßan li Kâcuaß Dios quixcßutbesi rib chiru laj Isaac ut quixye re: —Lâin li Kâcuaß Dios li quinixlokßoni chak laj Abraham lâ yucuaß. Matxucuac. Lâin junelic tin-ilok âcue ut tatincuosobtesi. Ut tebinqßue ajcuiß chi qßuiânc lâ cualal âcßajol. Tinbânu aßin âcuiqßuin xban nak joßcaßin quinyechißi chak re laj Abraham junxil, chan li Dios.

²⁵And 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.

²⁵Ut laj Isaac quixtus li pec ut quixyîb jun lix artal ut quixlokßoni li Kâcuaß Dios. Laj Isaac quixyîb ajcuiß lix muhebâl re nak tâcuânk aran. Ut eb lix môs laj Isaac queßxbec aran jun chic lix julel haß.

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

²⁶Saß jun li cutan laj Abimelec qui-el Gerar ut cô Beerseba chi âtinac riqßuin laj Isaac. Quixcßam jun li ramîg chirix aj Ahuzat xcßabaß ut quixcßam ajcuiß laj Ficol li nataklan reheb lix soldados.

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

²⁷Laj Isaac quixye reheb: —¿Cßaßut nak xexchal arin cuiqßuin? Julticak êre nak xicß quinêril nak quinêrisi chak saß êyânk, chan.

²⁸And 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;

²⁸Eb aßan queßchakßoc ut queßxye re: —Lâo xkil nak li Kâcuaß Dios yô châtenkßanquil. Ut xkaye chi kibil kib nak takabânu junak li contrato âcuiqßuin.

²⁹That 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.

²⁹Mêbânu li incßaß us kiqßuin. Lâo mâcßaß kabânu chak êre. Junes usilal kabânu chak êriqßuin. Saß xyâlal catkisi saß kayânk. Ut anakcuan lâat osobtesinbilat xban li Kâcuaß Dios, chan laj Abimelec.

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

³⁰Ut laj Isaac quixbânu jun li ninkße. Eb aßan queßcuaßac ut queßucßac.

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

³¹Joß cuulajak chic ekßela nak queßsakêu, queßxbânu jun li contrato chi ribileb rib. Laj Isaac queßxchakßrabi rib saß usilal. Ut eb aßan queßcôeb.

³²And 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.

³²Saß ajcuiß li cutan aßan lix môseb laj Isaac queßcuulac riqßuin ut queßxye re nak queßxbec jun chic lix julel li haß. Queßxye re, —Anakcuan xkatau li haß, chanqueb.

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

³³Ut laj Isaac quixqßue Seba chokß xcßabaß li haß aßan. Ut chalen anakcuan, Beerseba nayeman re li tenamit aßan li queßxtau cuiß li haß.

³⁴And 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:

³⁴Caßcßâl chihab cuan re laj Esaú nak quixcßam lix Judit chokß rixakil. Lix Judit aßan xrabin laj Beeri laj hitita. Ut quixcßam ajcuiß chokß rixakil lix Basemat, lix rabin laj Elón laj hitita.Cßajoß li raylal queßxcßul laj Isaac ut lix Rebeca xbaneb li rixakil laj Esaú.

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

³⁵Cßajoß li raylal queßxcßul laj Isaac ut lix Rebeca xbaneb li rixakil laj Esaú.
