by Septuagint
[54] καὶ ἔφαγον καὶ ἔπιον, αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ μετ’ αὐτοῦ ὄντες, καὶ ἐκοιμήθησαν. Καὶ ἀναστὰς πρωῒ εἶπεν Ἐκπέμψατέ με, ἵνα ἀπέλθω πρὸς τὸν κύριόν μου.
[54] And both he and the men with him ate and drank and went to sleep. And he arose in the morning and said, Send me away, that I may go to my master.
[55] εἶπαν δὲ οἱ ἀδελφοὶ αὐτῆς καὶ ἡ μήτηρ Μεινάτω ἡ παρθένος μεθ’ ἡμῶν ἡμέρας ὡσεὶ δέκα, καὶ μετὰ ταῦτα ἀπελεύσεται.
[55] And her brethren and her mother said, Let the virgin remain with us about ten days, and after that she shall depart.
[56] ὁ δὲ εἶπεν πρὸς αὐτούς Μὴ κατέχετέ με, καὶ κύριος εὐόδωσεν τὴν ὁδόν μου· ἐκπέμψατέ με, ἵνα ἀπέλθω πρὸς τὸν κύριόν μου.
[56] But he said to them, Hinder me not, for the Lord has prospered my journey for me; send me away, that I may depart to my master.
[57] οἱ δὲ εἶπαν Καλέσωμεν τὴν παῖδα καὶ ἐρωτήσωμεν τὸ στόμα αὐτῆς.
[57] And they said, Let us call the damsel, and enquire at her mouth.
[58] καὶ ἐκάλεσαν Ρεβεκκαν καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῇ Πορεύσῃ μετὰ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου τούτου; ἡ δὲ εἶπεν Πορεύσομαι.
[58] And they called Rebecca, and said to her, Wilt thou go with this man? and she said, I will go.
[59] καὶ ἐξέπεμψαν Ρεβεκκαν τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν καὶ τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτῆς καὶ τὸν παῖδα τὸν Αβρααμ καὶ τοὺς μετ’ αὐτοῦ.
[59] So they sent forth Rebecca their sister, and her goods, and the servant of Abraam, and his attendants.
[60] καὶ εὐλόγησαν Ρεβεκκαν τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῶν καὶ εἶπαν αὐτῇ Ἀδελφὴ ἡμῶν εἶ· γίνου εἰς χιλιάδας μυριάδων, καὶ κληρονομησάτω τὸ σπέρμα σου τὰς πόλεις τῶν ὑπεναντίων.
[60] And they blessed Rebecca, and said to her, Thou art our sister; become thou thousands of myriads, and let thy seed possess the cities of their enemies.
[61] ἀναστᾶσα δὲ Ρεβεκκα καὶ αἱ ἅβραι αὐτῆς ἐπέβησαν ἐπὶ τὰς καμήλους καὶ ἐπορεύθησαν μετὰ τοῦ ἀνθρώπου, καὶ ἀναλαβὼν ὁ παῖς τὴν Ρεβεκκαν ἀπῆλθεν.
[61] And Rebecca rose up and her maidens, and they mounted the camels and went with the man; and the servant having taken up Rebecca, departed.
[62] Ισαακ δὲ ἐπορεύετο διὰ τῆς ἐρήμου κατὰ τὸ φρέαρ τῆς ὁράσεως· αὐτὸς δὲ κατῴκει ἐν τῇ γῇ τῇ πρὸς λίβα.
[62] And Isaac went through the wilderness to the well of the vision, and he dwelt in the land toward the south.
[63] καὶ ἐξῆλθεν Ισαακ ἀδολεσχῆσαι εἰς τὸ πεδίον τὸ πρὸς δείλης καὶ ἀναβλέψας τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς εἶδεν καμήλους ἐρχομένας.
[63] And Isaac went forth into the plain toward evening to meditate; and having lifted up his eyes, he saw camels coming.
[64] καὶ ἀναβλέψασα Ρεβεκκα τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς εἶδεν τὸν Ισαακ καὶ κατεπήδησεν ἀπὸ τῆς καμήλου
[64] And Rebecca lifted up her eyes, and saw Isaac; and she alighted briskly from the camel,
[65] καὶ εἶπεν τῷ παιδί Τίς ἐστιν ὁ ἄνθρωπος ἐκεῖνος ὁ πορευόμενος ἐν τῷ πεδίῳ εἰς συνάντησιν ἡμῖν; εἶπεν δὲ ὁ παῖς Οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ κύριός μου. ἡ δὲ λαβοῦσα τὸ θέριστρον περιεβάλετο.
[65] and said to the servant, Who is that man that walks in the plain to meet us? And the servant said, This is my master; and she took her veil and covered herself.
[66] καὶ διηγήσατο ὁ παῖς τῷ Ισαακ πάντα τὰ ῥήματα, ἃ ἐποίησεν.
[66] And the servant told Isaac all that he had done.
[67] εἰσῆλθεν δὲ Ισαακ εἰς τὸν οἶκον τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ ἔλαβεν τὴν Ρεβεκκαν, καὶ ἐγένετο αὐτοῦ γυνή, καὶ ἠγάπησεν αὐτήν· καὶ παρεκλήθη Ισαακ περὶ Σαρρας τῆς μητρὸς αὐτοῦ.
[67] And Isaac went into the house of his mother, and took Rebecca, and she became his wife, and he loved her; and Isaac was comforted for Sarrha his mother.
CHAPTER 25
[1] Προσθέμενος δὲ Αβρααμ ἔλαβεν γυναῖκα, ᾗ ὄνομα Χεττουρα.
[1] And Abraam again took a wife, whose name was Chettura.
[2] ἔτεκεν δὲ αὐτῷ τὸν Ζεμραν καὶ τὸν Ιεξαν καὶ τὸν Μαδαν καὶ τὸν Μαδιαμ καὶ τὸν Ιεσβοκ καὶ τὸν Σωυε.
[2] And she bore to him Zombran, and Jezan, and Madal, and Madiam, and Jesboc, and Soie.
[3] Ιεξαν δὲ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Σαβα καὶ τὸν Θαιμαν καὶ τὸν Δαιδαν· υἱοὶ δὲ Δαιδαν ἐγένοντο Ραγουηλ καὶ Ναβδεηλ καὶ Ασσουριιμ καὶ Λατουσιιμ καὶ Λοωμιμ.
[3] And Jezan begot Saba and Dedan. And the sons of Dedan were the Assurians and the Latusians, and Laomim.
[4] υἱοὶ δὲ Μαδιαμ· Γαιφα καὶ Αφερ καὶ Ενωχ καὶ Αβιρα καὶ Ελραγα. πάντες οὗτοι ἦσαν υἱοὶ Χεττουρας.
[4] And the sons of Madiam were Gephar and Aphir, and Enoch, and Abeida, and Eldaga; all these were sons of Chettura.
[5] Ἔδωκεν δὲ Αβρααμ πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ Ισαακ τῷ υἱῷ αὐτοῦ,
[5] But Abraam gave all his possessions to Isaac his son.
[6] καὶ τοῖς υἱοῖς τῶν παλλακῶν αὐτοῦ ἔδωκεν Αβρααμ δόματα καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν αὐτοὺς ἀπὸ Ισαακ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ ἔτι ζῶντος αὐτοῦ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς εἰς γῆν ἀνατολῶν.
[6] But to the sons of his concubines Abraam gave gifts, and he sent them away from his son Isaac, while he was yet living, to the east into the country of the east.
[7] Ταῦτα δὲ τὰ ἔτη ἡμερῶν ζωῆς Αβρααμ, ὅσα ἔζησεν· ἑκατὸν ἑβδομήκοντα πέντε ἔτη.
[7] And these were the years of the days of the life of Abraam as many as he lived, a hundred and seventy-five years.
[8] καὶ ἐκλιπὼν ἀπέθανεν Αβρααμ ἐν γήρει καλῷ πρεσβύτης καὶ πλήρης ἡμερῶν καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ.
[8] And Abraam failing died in a good old age, an old man and full of days, and was added to his people.
[9] καὶ ἔθαψαν αὐτὸν Ισαακ καὶ Ισμαηλ οἱ υἱοὶ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸ σπήλαιον τὸ διπλοῦν εἰς τὸν ἀγρὸν Εφρων τοῦ Σααρ τοῦ Χετταίου, ὅ ἐστιν ἀπέναντι Μαμβρη,
[9] And Isaac and Ismael his sons buried him in the double cave, in the field of Ephron the son of Saar the Chettite, which is over against Mambre:
[10] τὸν ἀγρὸν καὶ τὸ σπήλαιον, ὃ ἐκτήσατο Αβρααμ παρὰ τῶν υἱῶν Χετ, ἐκεῖ ἔθαψαν Αβρααμ καὶ Σαρραν τὴν γυναῖκα αὐτο
ῦ.
[10] even the field and the cave which Abraam bought of the sons of Chet; there they buried Abraam and Sarrha his wife.
[11] ἐγένετο δὲ μετὰ τὸ ἀποθανεῖν Αβρααμ εὐλόγησεν ὁ θεὸς Ισαακ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτοῦ· καὶ κατῴκησεν Ισαακ παρὰ τὸ φρέαρ τῆς ὁράσεως.
[11] And it came to pass after Abraam was dead, that God blessed Isaac his son, and Isaac dwelt by the well of the vision.
[12] Αὗται δὲ αἱ γενέσεις Ισμαηλ τοῦ υἱοῦ Αβρααμ, ὃν ἔτεκεν Αγαρ ἡ παιδίσκη Σαρρας τῷ Αβρααμ,
[12] And these are the generations of Ismael the son of Abraam, whom Agar the Egyptian the hand-maid of Sarrha bore to Abraam.
[13] καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα τῶν υἱῶν Ισμαηλ κατ’ ὄνομα τῶν γενεῶν αὐτοῦ· πρωτότοκος Ισμαηλ Ναβαιωθ καὶ Κηδαρ καὶ Ναβδεηλ καὶ Μασσαμ
[13] And these are the names of the sons of Ismael, according to the names of their generations. The firstborn of Ismael, Nabaioth, and Kedar, and Nabdeel, and Massam,
[14] καὶ Μασμα καὶ Ιδουμα καὶ Μασση
[14] and Masma, and Duma, and Masse,
[15] καὶ Χοδδαδ καὶ Θαιμαν καὶ Ιετουρ καὶ Ναφες καὶ Κεδμα.
[15] and Choddan, and Thaeman, and Jetur, and Naphes, and Kedma.
[16] οὗτοί εἰσιν οἱ υἱοὶ Ισμαηλ καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ὀνόματα αὐτῶν ἐν ταῖς σκηναῖς αὐτῶν καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἐπαύλεσιν αὐτῶν· δώδεκα ἄρχοντες κατὰ ἔθνη αὐτῶν.
[16] These are the sons of Ismael, and these are their names in their tents and in their dwellings, twelve princes according to their nations.
[17] καὶ ταῦτα τὰ ἔτη τῆς ζωῆς Ισμαηλ· ἑκατὸν τριάκοντα ἑπτὰ ἔτη· καὶ ἐκλιπὼν ἀπέθανεν καὶ προσετέθη πρὸς τὸ γένος αὐτοῦ.
[17] And these are the years of the life of Ismael, a hundred and thirty-seven years; and he failed and died, and was added to his fathers.
[18] κατῴκησεν δὲ ἀπὸ Ευιλατ ἕως Σουρ, ἥ ἐστιν κατὰ πρόσωπον Αἰγύπτου, ἕως ἐλθεῖν πρὸς Ἀσσυρίους· κατὰ πρόσωπον πάντων τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ κατῴκησεν.
[18] And he dwelt from Evilat to Sur, which is opposite Egypt, until one comes to the Assyrians; he dwelt in the presence of all his brethren.
[19] Καὶ αὗται αἱ γενέσεις Ισαακ τοῦ υἱοῦ Αβρααμ· Αβρααμ ἐγέννησεν τὸν Ισαακ.
[19] And these are the generations of Isaac the son of Abraam.
[20] ἦν δὲ Ισαακ ἐτῶν τεσσαράκοντα, ὅτε ἔλαβεν τὴν Ρεβεκκαν θυγατέρα Βαθουηλ τοῦ Σύρου ἐκ τῆς Μεσοποταμίας ἀδελφὴν Λαβαν τοῦ Σύρου ἑαυτῷ γυναῖκα.
[20] Abraam begot Isaac. And Isaac was forty years old when he took to wife Rebecca, daughter of Bathuel the Syrian, out of Syrian Mesopotamia, sister of Laban the Syrian.
[21] ἐδεῖτο δὲ Ισαακ κυρίου περὶ Ρεβεκκας τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ, ὅτι στεῖρα ἦν· ἐπήκουσεν δὲ αὐτοῦ ὁ θεός, καὶ ἔλαβεν ἐν γαστρὶ Ρεβεκκα ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ.
[21] And Isaac prayed the Lord concerning Rebecca his wife, because she was barren; and the Lord heard him, and his wife Rebecca conceived in her womb.
[22] ἐσκίρτων δὲ τὰ παιδία ἐν αὐτῇ· εἶπεν δέ Εἰ οὕτως μοι μέλλει γίνεσθαι, ἵνα τί μοι τοῦτο; ἐπορεύθη δὲ πυθέσθαι παρὰ κυρίου,
[22] And the babes leaped within her; and she said, If it will be so with me, why is this to me? And she went to enquire of the Lord.
[23] καὶ εἶπεν κύριος αὐτῇ Δύο ἔθνη ἐν τῇ γαστρί σού εἰσιν, καὶ δύο λαοὶ ἐκ τῆς κοιλίας σου διασταλήσονται· καὶ λαὸς λαοῦ ὑπερέξει, καὶ ὁ μείζων δουλεύσει τῷ ἐλάσσονι.
[23] And the Lord said to her, There are two nations in thy womb, and two peoples shall be separated from thy belly, and one people shall excel the other, and the elder shall serve the younger.
[24] καὶ ἐπληρώθησαν αἱ ἡμέραι τοῦ τεκεῖν αὐτήν, καὶ τῇδε ἦν δίδυμα ἐν τῇ κοιλίᾳ αὐτῆς.
[24] And the days were fulfilled that she should be delivered, and she had twins in her womb.
[25] ἐξῆλθεν δὲ ὁ υἱὸς ὁ πρωτότοκος πυρράκης, ὅλος ὡσεὶ δορὰ δασύς· ἐπωνόμασεν δὲ τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ησαυ.
[25] And the first came out red, hairy all over like a skin; and she called his name Esau.
[26] καὶ μετὰ τοῦτο ἐξῆλθεν ὁ ἀδελφὸς αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἡ χεὶρ αὐτοῦ ἐπειλημμένη τῆς πτέρνης Ησαυ· καὶ ἐκάλεσεν τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ιακωβ. Ισαακ δὲ ἦν ἐτῶν ἑξήκοντα, ὅτε ἔτεκεν αὐτοὺς Ρεβεκκα.
[26] And after this came forth his brother, and his hand took hold of the heel of Esau; and she called his name Jacob. And Isaac was sixty years old when Rebecca bore them.
[27] Ηὐξήθησαν δὲ οἱ νεανίσκοι, καὶ ἦν Ησαυ ἄνθρωπος εἰδὼς κυνηγεῖν ἄγροικος, Ιακωβ δὲ ἦν ἄνθρωπος ἄπλαστος οἰκῶν οἰκίαν.
[27] And the lads grew, and Esau was a man skilled in hunting, dwelling in the country, and Jacob a simple man, dwelling in a house.
[28] ἠγάπησεν δὲ Ισαακ τὸν Ησαυ, ὅτι ἡ θήρα αὐτοῦ βρῶσις αὐτῷ· Ρεβεκκα δὲ ἠγάπα τὸν Ιακωβ.
[28] And Isaac loved Esau, because his venison was his food, but Rebecca loved Jacob.
[29] ἥψησεν δὲ Ιακωβ ἕψεμα· ἦλθεν δὲ Ησαυ ἐκ τοῦ πεδίου ἐκλείπων,
[29] And Jacob cooked pottage, and Esau came from the plain, fainting.
[30] καὶ εἶπεν Ησαυ τῷ Ιακωβ Γεῦσόν με ἀπὸ τοῦ ἑψέματος τοῦ πυρροῦ τούτου, ὅτι ἐκλείπω. διὰ τοῦτο ἐκλήθη τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Εδωμ.
[30] And Esau said to Jacob, Let me taste of that red pottage, because I am fainting; therefore his name was called Edom.
[31] εἶπεν δὲ Ιακωβ τῷ Ησαυ Ἀπόδου μοι σήμερον τὰ πρωτοτόκιά σου ἐμοί.
[31] And Jacob said to Esau, Sell me this day thy birthright.
[32] εἶπεν δὲ Ησαυ Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ πορεύομαι τελευτᾶν, καὶ ἵνα τί μοι ταῦτα τὰ πρωτοτόκια;
[32] And Esau said, Behold, I am going to die, and for what good does this birthright belong to me?
[33] καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ιακωβ Ὄμοσόν μοι σήμερον. καὶ ὤμοσεν αὐτῷ· ἀπέδοτο δὲ Ησαυ τὰ πρωτοτόκια τῷ Ιακωβ.
[33] And Jacob said to him, Swear to me this day; and he swore to him; and Esau sold his birthright to Jacob.
[34] Ιακωβ δὲ ἔδωκεν τῷ Ησαυ ἄρτον καὶ ἕψεμα φακοῦ, καὶ ἔφαγεν καὶ ἔπιεν καὶ ἀναστὰς ᾤχετο· καὶ ἐφαύλισεν Ησαυ τὰ πρωτοτόκια.
[34] And Jacob gave bread to Esau, and pottage of lentiles; and he ate and drank, and he arose and depar
ted; so Esau slighted his birthright.
CHAPTER 26
[1] Ἐγένετο δὲ λιμὸς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς χωρὶς τοῦ λιμοῦ τοῦ πρότερον, ὃς ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ χρόνῳ τῷ Αβρααμ· ἐπορεύθη δὲ Ισαακ πρὸς Αβιμελεχ βασιλέα Φυλιστιιμ εἰς Γεραρα.
[1] And there was a famine in the land, besides the former famine, which was in the time of Abraam; and Isaac went to Abimelech the king of the Phylistines to Gerara.
[2] ὤφθη δὲ αὐτῷ κύριος καὶ εἶπεν Μὴ καταβῇς εἰς Αἴγυπτον· κατοίκησον δὲ ἐν τῇ γῇ, ᾗ ἄν σοι εἴπω.
[2] And the Lord appeared to him and said, Go not down to Egypt, but dwell in the land, which I shall tell thee of.
[3] καὶ παροίκει ἐν τῇ γῇ ταύτῃ, καὶ ἔσομαι μετὰ σοῦ καὶ εὐλογήσω σε· σοὶ γὰρ καὶ τῷ σπέρματί σου δώσω πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ταύτην καὶ στήσω τὸν ὅρκον μου, ὃν ὤμοσα Αβρααμ τῷ πατρί σου.
[3] And sojourn in this land; and I will be with thee, and bless thee, for I will give to thee and to thy seed all this land; and I will establish my oath which I swore to thy father Abraam.
[4] καὶ πληθυνῶ τὸ σπέρμα σου ὡς τοὺς ἀστέρας τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ δώσω τῷ σπέρματί σου πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ταύτην, καὶ ἐνευλογηθήσονται ἐν τῷ σπέρματί σου πάντα τὰ ἔθνη τῆς γῆς,
[4] And I will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven; and I will give to thy seed all this land, and all the nations of the earth shall be blest in thy seed.
[5] ἀνθ’ ὧν ὑπήκουσεν Αβρααμ ὁ πατήρ σου τῆς ἐμῆς φωνῆς καὶ ἐφύλαξεν τὰ προστάγματά μου καὶ τὰς ἐντολάς μου καὶ τὰ δικαιώματά μου καὶ τὰ νόμιμά μου.
