| 26 | Abimelech came to him from Gerar with Ahuzzath his friend and Phicol the commander of his army. | ISAAC's agreement with Abimelech. Gn.26.26-33 | וַאֲבִימֶלֶךְ הָלַךְ אֵלָיו מִגְּרָר וַאֲחֻזַּת מֵרֵעֵהוּ וּפִיכֹל שַׂר־צְבָאֹו׃ |
|
| 27 | Isaac said to them, 'Why have you come here? You hate me and you sent me away.' | | וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם יִצְחָק מַדּוּעַ בָּאתֶם אֵלָי וְאַתֶּם שְׂנֵאתֶם אֹתִי וַתְּשַׁלְּחוּנִי מֵאִתְּכֶם׃ |
|
| 28 | They answered, 'We have seen plainly that the LORD is with you, so we thought, "Let the two of us put each other to the oath and make a treaty that will bind us." | | וַיֹּאמְרוּ רָאֹו רָאִינוּ כִּי־הָיָה יְהוָה עִמָּךְ וַנֹּאמֶר תְּהִי נָא אָלָה בֵּינֹותֵינוּ בֵּינֵינוּ וּבֵינֶךָ וְנִכְרְתָה בְרִית עִמָּךְ׃ |
|
| 29 | We have not attacked you, we have done you nothing but good, and we let you go away peaceably. Swear that you will do us no harm, now that the LORD has blessed you.' | | אִם־תַּעֲשֵׂה עִמָּנוּ רָעָה כַּאֲשֶׁר לֹא נְגַעֲנוּךָ וְכַאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂינוּ עִמְּךָ רַק־טֹוב וַנְּשַׁלֵּחֲךָ בְּשָׁלֹום אַתָּה עַתָּה בְּרוּךְ יְהוָה׃ |
|
| 30 | So Isaac gave a feast and they ate and drank. | | וַיַּעַשׂ לָהֶם מִשְׁתֶּה וַיֹּאכְלוּ וַיִּשְׁתּוּ׃ |
|
| 31 | They rose early in the morning and exchanged oaths. Then Isaac bade them farewell, and they parted from him in peace. | | וַיַּשְׁכִּימוּ בַבֹּקֶר וַיִּשָּׁבְעוּ אִישׁ לְאָחִיו וַיְשַׁלְּחֵם יִצְחָק וַיֵּלְכוּ מֵאִתֹּו בְּשָׁלֹום׃ |
|
| 32 | The same day Isaac's slaves came and told him about a well that they had dug: 'We have found water', they said. | | וַיְהִי בַּיֹּום הַהוּא וַיָּבֹאוּ עַבְדֵי יִצְחָק וַיַּגִּדוּ לֹו עַל־אֹדֹות הַבְּאֵר אֲשֶׁר חָפָרוּ וַיֹּאמְרוּ לֹו מָצָאנוּ מָיִם׃ |
|
| 33 | He named the well Shibah That is Oath. This is why the city is called Beersheba That is Well of an Oath to this day. | | וַיִּקְרָא אֹתָהּ שִׁבְעָה עַל־כֵּן שֵׁם־הָעִיר בְּאֵר שֶׁבַע עַד הַיֹּום הַזֶּה׃ ס |
