¹A povstal v zemi hlad, mimo tamtoho prvého hladu, ktorý bol za dňov Abrahámových, a Izák odišiel k Abimelechovi, kráľovi Filištínov, do Gerára.

¹And there is a famine in the land, besides the first famine which was in the days of Abraham, and Isaac goeth unto Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.

²Lebo sa mu bol ukázal Hospodin a riekol mu: Neodchádzaj dolu do Egypta, ale bývaj v zemi, o ktorej ti poviem.

²And Jehovah appeareth unto him, and saith, `Go not down towards Egypt, tabernacle in the land concerning which I speak unto thee,

³Bývaj v tejto zemi jako pohostín, a budem s tebou a požehnám ťa, lebo tebe a tvojmu semenu dám všetky tieto zeme a postavím prísahu, ktorú som prisahal Abrahámovi, tvojmu otcovi.

³sojourn in this land, and I am with thee, and bless thee, for to thee and to thy seed I give all these lands, and I have established the oath which I have sworn to Abraham thy father;

⁴A rozmnožím tvoje semeno tak, že ho bude jako hviezd na nebi, a dám tvojmu semenu všetky tieto zeme, a v tvojom semene budú požehnané všetky národy zeme,

⁴and I have multiplied thy seed as stars of the heavens, and I have given to thy seed all these lands; and blessed themselves in thy seed have all nations of the earth;

⁵pretože Abrahám poslúchol na môj hlas a zachoval moje nariadenie, moje prikázania, moje ustanovenia a moje zákony.

⁵because that Abraham hath hearkened to My voice, and keepeth My charge, My commands, My statutes, and My laws.`

⁶A tak býval Izák v Geráre.

⁶And Isaac dwelleth in Gerar;

⁷Ale mužovia toho miesta sa pýtali po jeho žene, a vravel: To je moja sestra. Lebo sa bál povedať: Moja žena. Aby ma vraj nezabili mužovia toho miesta pre Rebeku, lebo bola krásneho vzozrenia.

⁷and men of the place ask him of his wife, and he saith, `She [is] my sister:` for he hath been afraid to say, `My wife — lest the men of the place kill me for Rebekah, for she [is] of good appearance.`

⁸A stalo sa, keď tam už býval nejaký čas, že Abimelech, kráľ Filištínov, vyzeral z obloka a videl a hľa, Izák sa poihrával s Rebekou, svojou ženou.

⁸And it cometh to pass, when the days have been prolonged to him there, that Abimelech king of the Philistines looketh through the window, and seeth, and lo, Isaac is playing with Rebekah his wife.

⁹Vtedy povolal Abimelech Izáka a povedal: Hľa, vidieť, že je to tvoja žena. Nuž, akože je to, že si hovoril: Je moja sestra? A Izák mu povedal: Vravel som tak preto, že som povedal: Aby som nezomrel pre ňu.

⁹And Abimelech calleth for Isaac, and saith, `Lo, she [is] surely thy wife; and how hast thou said, She [is] my sister?` and Isaac saith unto him, `Because I said, Lest I die for her.`

¹⁰A Abimelech povedal: Čo si nám to urobil? Málo chýbalo, čo by bol niektorý z ľudu ležal s tvojou ženou, a bol by si na nás uviedol vinu.

¹⁰And Abimelech saith, `What [is] this thou hast done to us? as a little thing one of the people had lain with thy wife, and thou hadst brought upon us guilt;`

¹¹Potom prikázal Abimelech všetkému ľudu a riekol: Kto by sa dotknul toho človeka alebo jeho ženy, istotne zomrie.

¹¹and Abimelech commandeth all the people, saying, `He who cometh against this man or against his wife, dying doth die.`

¹²A Izák sial v tej zemi a našiel toho roku, že sa mu urodilo stonásobne, a Hospodin ho požehnal.

¹²And Isaac soweth in that land, and findeth in that year a hundredfold, and Jehovah blesseth him;

¹³A človek narástol veľký a prospieval viacej a viacej a rástol tak, až bol veľmi veliký.

¹³and the man is great, and goeth on, going on and becoming great, till that he hath been very great,

¹⁴A mal stádo drobného dobytka a stádo rožného statku a služobnej čeľade mnoho, a preto mu závideli Filištíni.

¹⁴and he hath possession of a flock, and possession of a herd, and an abundant service; and the Philistines envy him,

¹⁵A všetky studne, ktoré boli vykopali sluhovia jeho otca za dní Abraháma, jeho otca, zahádzali Filištíni a zaplnili ich zemou.

¹⁵and all the wells which his father`s servants digged in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines have stopped them, and fill them with dust.

¹⁶A Abimelech povedal Izákovi: Odídi od nás, lebo si o mnoho mocnejší ako my.

¹⁶And Abimelech saith unto Isaac, `Go from us; for thou hast become much mightier than we;`

¹⁷A tak odišiel odtiaľ Izák a rozložil sa táborom v doline Geráre a býval tam.

¹⁷and Isaac goeth from thence, and encampeth in the valley of Gerar, and dwelleth there;

¹⁸A Izák zase vykopal studne vody, ktoré boli vykopali za dní Abraháma, jeho otca, a ktoré boli zahádzali Filištíni po smrti Abrahámovej, a pomenoval ich menami, jakými ich bol pomenoval jeho otec.

¹⁸and Isaac turneth back, and diggeth the wells of water which they digged in the days of Abraham his father, which the Philistines do stop after the death of Abraham, and he calleth to them names according to the names which his father called them.

¹⁹A služobníci Izákovi kopali aj na tej doline a našli tam studňu živej vody.

¹⁹And Isaac`s servants dig in the valley, and find there a well of living water,

²⁰Ale pastieri z Gerára vadili sa s pastiermi Izákovými a vraveli: To je naša voda. A tak nazval meno studne Esek, lebo sa vadili s ním.

²⁰and shepherds of Gerar strive with shepherds of Isaac, saying, `The water [is] ours;` and he calleth the name of the well `Strife,` because they have striven habitually with him;

²¹Potom vykopali druhú studňu a vadili sa aj o tú, a preto nazval jej meno Sitna.

²¹and they dig another well, and they strive also for it, and he calleth its name `Hatred.`

²²A hnul sa odtiaľ a kopal ešte inú studňu, a o tú sa už nevadili, a preto ju pomenoval: Rechobót, a povedal: Teraz nám upriestranil Hospodin, a rozplodíme sa na zemi.

²²And he removeth from thence, and diggeth another well, and they have not striven for it, and he calleth its name Enlargements, and saith, `For — now hath Jehovah given enlargement to us, and we have been fruitful in the land.`

²³Potom odišiel odtiaľ hore do Bér-šeby.

²³And he goeth up from thence [to] Beer-Sheba,

²⁴A v tú noc sa mu ukázal Hospodin a riekol: Ja som Bôh Abraháma, tvojho otca; neboj sa, lebo ja som s tebou a požehnám ťa a rozmnožím tvoje semeno pre Abraháma, svojho služobníka.

²⁴and Jehovah appeareth unto him during that night, and saith, `I [am] the God of Abraham thy father, fear not, for I [am] with thee, and have blessed thee, and have multiplied thy seed, because of Abraham My servant;`

²⁵A vystavil tam oltár a vzýval meno Hospodinovo a tam tiež postavil svoj stán, a služobníci Izákovi tam vykopali studňu.

²⁵and he buildeth there an altar, and preacheth in the name of Jehovah, and stretcheth out there his tent, and there Isaac`s servants dig a well.

²⁶Potom išiel k nemu Abimelech z Gerára a Achuzat, jeho priateľ, a Fíkol, knieža jeho vojska.

²⁶And Abimelech hath gone unto him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phichol head of his host;

²⁷A Izák im povedal: Prečo ste prišli ku mne, keď ma nenávidíte a zahnali ste ma od seba?

²⁷and Isaac saith unto them, `Wherefore have ye come unto me, and ye have hated me, and ye send me away from you?`

²⁸A povedali: Vidíme zrejme, že je Hospodin s tebou, a povedali sme si: Nechže je prísaha medzi nami, medzi mami a medzi tebou, a učiníme s tebou smluvu,

²⁸And they say, `We have certainly seen that Jehovah hath been with thee, and we say, `Let there be, we pray thee, an oath between us, between us and thee, and let us make a covenant with thee;

²⁹že nám neurobíš zlého, tak ako sme sa my teba neba nedotkli a jako sme ti neurobili iba dobré a prepustili sme ťa v pokoji, ty, teraz požehnaný Hospodinov.

²⁹do not evil with us, as we have not touched thee, and as we have only done good with thee, and send thee away in peace; thou [art] now blessed of Jehovah.`

³⁰A učinil im hostinu, a jedli a pili.

³⁰And he maketh for them a banquet, and they eat and drink,

³¹Potom vstali skoro ráno a prisahali druh druhovi, a Izák ich prepustil, a odišli od neho v pokoji.

³¹and rise early in the morning, and swear one to another, and Isaac sendeth them away, and they go from him in peace.

³²A stalo sa toho dňa, že prišli služobníci Izákovi a oznámili mu o studni, ktorú kopali, a povedali mu: Našli sme vodu.

³²And it cometh to pass during that day that Isaac`s servants come and declare to him concerning the circumstances of the well which they have digged, and say to him, `We have found water;`

³³A pomenoval ju: Šeba, preto je meno toho mesta Bér-šeba, až do dnešného dňa.

³³and he calleth it Shebah, [oath,] therefore the name of the city [is] Beer-Sheba, [well of the oath,] unto this day.

³⁴A Ezavovi bolo štyridsať rokov, keď si vzal ženu Juditu, dcéru Bériho Hetejského, a Bazematu, dcéru Elona Hetejského.

³⁴And Esau is a son of forty years, and he taketh a wife, Judith, daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Bashemath, daughter of Elon the Hittite,

³⁵A boly horkosťou ducha Izákovi aj Rebeke.

³⁵and they are a bitterness of spirit to Isaac and to Rebekah.
