¹There was a famine in the land, besides the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. Isaac went to Abimelech king of the Philistines, to Gerar.

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

²Yahweh appeared to him, and said, “Don’t go down into Egypt. Live in the land I will tell you about.

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

³Live in this land, and I will be with you, and will bless you. For to you, and to your seed, I will give all these lands, and I will establish the oath which I swore to Abraham your father.

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.

⁴I will multiply your seed as the stars of the sky, and will give to your seed all these lands. In your seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed,

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,

⁵because Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my requirements, my commandments, my statutes, and my laws.”

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

⁶Isaac lived in Gerar.

⁶A tak býval Izák v Geráre.

⁷The men of the place asked him about his wife. He said, “She is my sister,” for he was afraid to say, “My wife,” lest, he thought, “the men of the place might kill me for Rebekah, because she is beautiful to look at.”

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.

⁸It happened, 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 caressing Rebekah, his wife.

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.

⁹Abimelech called Isaac, and said, “Behold, surely she is your wife. Why did you say, ‘She is my sister?’” Isaac said to him, “Because I said, ‘Lest I die because of her.’”

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.

¹⁰Abimelech said, “What is this you have done to us? One of the people might easily have lain with your wife, and you would have brought guilt on us!”

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.

¹¹Abimelech commanded all the people, saying, “He who touches this man or his wife will surely be put to death.”

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

¹²Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year one hundred times what he planted. Yahweh blessed him.

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

¹³The man grew great, and grew more and more until he became very great.

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

¹⁴He had possessions of flocks, possessions of herds, and a great household. The Philistines envied him.

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

¹⁵Now all the wells which his father’s servants had dug in the days of Abraham his father, the Philistines had stopped, and filled with earth.

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

¹⁶Abimelech said to Isaac, “Go from us, for you are much mightier than we.”

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

¹⁷Isaac departed from there, encamped in the valley of Gerar, and lived there.

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

¹⁸Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father. For the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.

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.

¹⁹Isaac’s servants dug in the valley, and found there a well of springing water.

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

²⁰The herdsmen of Gerar argued with Isaac’s herdsmen, saying, “The water is ours.” He called the name of the well Esek, because they contended with him.

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.

²¹They dug another well, and they argued over that, also. He called its name Sitnah.

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

²²He left that place, and dug another well. They didn’t argue over that one. He called it Rehoboth. He said, “For now Yahweh has made room for us, and we will be fruitful in the land.”

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.

²³He went up from there to Beersheba.

²³Potom odišiel odtiaľ hore do Bér-šeby.

²⁴Yahweh appeared to him the same night, and said, “I am the God of Abraham your father. Don’t be afraid, for I am with you, and will bless you, and multiply your seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.”

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.

²⁵He built an altar there, and called on the name of Yahweh, and pitched his tent there. There Isaac’s servants dug a well.

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

²⁶Then Abimelech went to him from Gerar, and Ahuzzath his friend, and Phicol the captain of his army.

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

²⁷Isaac said to them, “Why have you come to me, since you hate me, and have sent me away from you?”

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

²⁸They said, “We saw plainly that Yahweh was with you. We said, ‘Let there now be an oath between us, even between us and you, and let us make a covenant with 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,

²⁹that you will do us no harm, as we have not touched you, and as we have done to you nothing but good, and have sent you away in peace.’ You are now the blessed of Yahweh.”

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.

³⁰He made them a feast, and they ate and drank.

³⁰A učinil im hostinu, a jedli a pili.

³¹They rose up some time in the morning, and swore one to another. Isaac sent them away, and they departed from him in peace.

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

³²It happened the same day, that Isaac’s servants came, and told him concerning the well which they had dug, and said to him, “We have found water.”

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

³³He called it Shibah. Shibah means “oath” or “seven.” Therefore the name of the city is Beersheba Beersheba means “well of the oath” or “well of the seven” to this day.

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

³⁴When Esau was forty years old, he took as wife Judith, the daughter of Beeri the Hittite, and Basemath, the daughter of Elon the Hittite.

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

³⁵They grieved Isaac’s and Rebekah’s spirits.

³⁵A boly horkosťou ducha Izákovi aj Rebeke.
