¹وانتقل ابراهيم من هناك الى ارض الجنوب وسكن بين قادش وشور وتغرب في جرار.

¹And Abraham departed thence towards the south country, and dwelt between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned at Gerar.

²وقال ابراهيم عن سارة امراته هي اختي. فارسل ابيمالك ملك جرار واخذ سارة.

²And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. And Abimelech the king of Gerar sent and took Sarah.

³فجاء الله الى ابيمالك في حلم الليل وقال له ها انت ميّت من اجل المرأة التي اخذتها فانها متزوجة ببعل.

³But God came to Abimelech in a dream by night, and said to him, Behold, thou art [but] a dead man, because of the woman that thou hast taken; for she is a man's wife.

⁴ولكن لم يكن ابيمالك قد اقترب اليها. فقال يا سيد أأمة بارة تقتل.

⁴But Abimelech had not come near her. And he said, Lord, wilt thou also kill a righteous nation?

⁵ألم يقل هو لي انها اختي وهي ايضا نفسها قالت هو اخي. بسلامة قلبي ونقاوة يديّ فعلت هذا.

⁵Did he not say to me, She is my sister? and she, even she said, He is my brother. In the integrity of my heart and in the innocency of my hands have I done this.

⁶فقال له الله في الحلم انا ايضا علمت انك بسلامة قلبك فعلت هذا. وانا ايضا امسكتك عن ان تخطئ اليّ. لذلك لم ادعك تمسّها.

⁶And God said to him in a dream, I also knew that thou didst this in the integrity of thy heart, and I, too, have withheld thee from sinning against me: therefore have I not suffered thee to touch her.

⁷فالآن رد امرأة الرجل فانه نبيّ فيصلّي لاجلك فتحيا. وان كنت لست تردها فاعلم انك موتا تموت انت وكل من لك

⁷And now, restore the man's wife; for he is a prophet, and will pray for thee, that thou mayest live. And if thou do not restore [her], know that thou shalt certainly die, thou and all that is thine.

⁸فبكّر ابيمالك في الغد ودعا جميع عبيده وتكلم بكل هذا الكلام في مسامعهم. فخاف الرجال جدا.

⁸And Abimelech rose early in the morning, and called all his servants, and spoke all these words in their ears; and the men were greatly afraid.

⁹ثم دعا ابيمالك ابراهيم وقال له ماذا فعلت بنا وبماذا اخطأت اليك حتى جلبت عليّ وعلى مملكتي خطية عظيمة. اعمالا لا تعمل عملت بي.

⁹And Abimelech called Abraham and said to him, What hast thou done to us? And in what have I sinned against thee, that thou hast brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Thou hast done to me deeds that ought not to be done.

¹⁰وقال ابيمالك لابراهيم ماذا رأيت حتى عملت هذا الشيء.

¹⁰And Abimelech said to Abraham, What hast thou seen that thou hast done this?

¹¹فقال ابراهيم اني قلت ليس في هذا الموضع خوف الله البتة. فيقتلونني لاجل امرأتي.

¹¹And Abraham said, Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they will kill me for my wife's sake.

¹²وبالحقيقة ايضا هي اختي ابنة ابي. غير انها ليست ابنة امي. فصارت لي زوجة.

¹²But she is also truly my sister, the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother; and she became my wife.

¹³وحدث لما اتاهني الله من بيت ابي اني قلت لها هذا معروفك الذي تصنعين اليّ. في كل مكان نأتي اليه قولي عني هو اخي

¹³And it came to pass when God caused me to wander from my father's house, that I said to her, Let this be thy kindness which thou shalt shew to me: at every place whither we shall come, say of me, He is my brother.

¹⁴فاخذ ابيمالك غنما وبقرا وعبيدا واماء واعطاها لابراهيم. ورد اليه سارة امرأته.

¹⁴And Abimelech took sheep and oxen, and bondmen and bondwomen, and gave [them] to Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.

¹⁵وقال ابيمالك هوذا ارضي قدامك. اسكن في ما حسن في عينيك.

¹⁵And Abimelech said, Behold, my land is before thee: dwell where it is good in thine eyes.

¹⁶وقال لسارة اني قد اعطيت اخاك الفا من الفضة. ها هو لك غطاء عين من جهة كل ما عندك وعند كل واحد فأنصفت.

¹⁶And to Sarah he said, Behold, I have given thy brother a thousand [pieces] of silver; behold, let that be to thee a covering of the eyes, in respect of all that are with thee, and with all; and she was reproved.

¹⁷فصلّى ابراهيم الى الله. فشفى الله ابيمالك وامرأته وجواريه فولدن.

¹⁷And Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife and his handmaids, and they bore [children].

¹⁸لان الرب كان قد اغلق كل رحم لبيت ابيمالك بسبب سارة امرأة ابراهيم

¹⁸For Jehovah had fast closed up all the wombs of the house of Abimelech because of Sarah Abraham's wife.
