Postanak 21

Lernen

   

1 I Gospod pohodi Saru, kao što beše rekao i učini Gospod Sari kao što beše kazao.

2 Jer zatrudne i rodi Sara Avramu sina u starosti njegovoj u isto vreme kad kaza Gospod.

3 I Avram nadede ime sinu koji mu se rodi, kog mu rodi Sara, Isak.

4 I obreza Avram sina svog Isaka kad bi od osam dana, kao što mu zapovedi Bog.

5 A Avramu beše sto godina kad mu se rodi sin Isak.

6 A Sara reče: Bog mi učini smeh; ko god čuje, smejaće mi se.

7 I reče: Ko bi rekao Avramu da će Sara dojiti decu? Ipak mu rodih sina u starosti njegovoj.

8 A kad dete doraste da se odbije od sise, učini Avram veliku gozbu onaj dan kad odbiše Isaka od sise.

9 I Sara vide sina Agare Misirke, koja ga rodi Avramu, gde se podsmeva;

10 Pa reče Avramu: Oteraj ovu robinju sa sinom njenim, jer sin ove robinje neće biti naslednik s mojim sinom, s Isakom.

11 A to Avramu bi vrlo krivo radi sina njegovog.

12 Ali Bog reče Avramu: Nemoj da ti je krivo radi deteta i radi robinje tvoje. Šta ti je god kazala Sara, poslušaj; jer će ti se u Isaku seme prozvati.

13 Ali ću i od sina robinjinog učiniti narod, jer je tvoje seme.

14 I Avram ustav ujutru rano, uze hleba i mešinu vode, i dade Agari metnuvši joj na leđa, i dete, i otpusti je. A ona otišavši lutaše po pustinji virsavskoj.

15 A kad nesta vode u mešini, ona baci dete pod jedno drvo,

16 Pa otide koliko se može strelom dobaciti, i sede prema njemu; jer govoraše: Da ne gledam kako će umreti dete. I sedeći prema njemu stade glasno plakati.

17 A Bog ču glas detinji, i anđeo Božji viknu s neba Agaru, i reče joj: Šta ti je Agaro? Ne boj se, jer Bog ču glas detinji odande gde je.

18 Ustani, digni dete i uzmi ga u naručje; jer ću od njega učiniti velik narod.

19 I Bog joj otvori oči, te ugleda studenac; i otišavši napuni mešinu vode, i napoji dete.

20 I Bog beše s detetom, te odraste, i živeše u pustinji i posta strelac.

21 A živeše u pustinji Faranu. I mati ga oženi iz zemlje misirske.

22 U to vreme reče Avimeleh i Fihol vojvoda njegov Avramu govoreći: Bog je s tobom u svemu što radiš.

23 Zakuni mi se sada Bogom da nećeš prevariti mene ni sina mog ni unuka mog nego da ćeš dobro onako kako sam ja tebi činio i ti činiti meni i zemlji u kojoj si došljak.

24 A Avram reče: Hoću se zakleti.

25 Ali Avram prekori Avimeleha za studenac, koji uzeše na silu sluge Avimelehove.

26 A Avimeleh reče: Ne znam ko je to učinio; niti mi ti kaza, niti čuh do danas.

27 Tada Avram uze ovaca i goveda, i dade Avimelehu, i uhvati veru među sobom.

28 A Avram odluči sedam jaganjaca iz stada.

29 A Avimeleh reče Avramu: Šta će ono sedam jaganjaca što si odlučio?

30 A on odgovori: Da primiš iz moje ruke ono sedam jaganjaca, da mi bude svedočanstvo da sam ja iskopao ovaj studenac.

31 Otuda se prozva ono mesto Virsaveja, jer se onde zakleše obojica.

32 Tako uhvatiše veru na Virsaveji. Tada se diže Avimeleh i Fihol vojvoda njegov, i vratiše se u zemlju filistejsku.

33 A Avram posadi lug na Virsaveji, i onde prizva ime Gospoda Boga Večnog.

34 I Avram živeše kao došljak u zemlji filistejskoj mnogo vremena.

2622. 'Sarah to Abraham' means from [the Lord's] Divine spiritual united to His Divine celestial. This is clear from the representation of 'Sarah' as the Divine spiritual or Divine Truth, dealt with in 1468, 1901, 2063, 2065, 2172, 2173, 2198, 2507, and from the representation of 'Abraham' as the Divine celestial or Divine Good, dealt with in 1989, 2011, 2172, 2198, 2501. Regarding the Divine spiritual united to the Divine celestial, see what has been stated above in 2618.

Genesis 21

Lernen

   

1 Yahweh visited Sarah as he had said, and Yahweh did to Sarah as he had spoken.

2 Sarah conceived, and bore Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.

3 Abraham called his son who was born to him, whom Sarah bore to him, Isaac.

4 Abraham circumcised his son, Isaac, when he was eight days old, as God had commanded him.

5 Abraham was one hundred years old when his son, Isaac, was born to him.

6 Sarah said, "God has made me laugh. Everyone who hears will laugh with me."

7 She said, "Who would have said to Abraham, that Sarah would nurse children? For I have borne him a son in his old age."

8 The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned.

9 Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking.

10 Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, Isaac."

11 The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son.

12 God said to Abraham, "Don't let it be grievous in your sight because of the boy, and because of your handmaid. In all that Sarah says to you, listen to her voice. For from Isaac will your seed be called.

13 I will also make a nation of the son of the handmaid, because he is your seed."

14 Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.

15 The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

16 She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, "Don't let me see the death of the child." She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.

17 God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, "What ails you, Hagar? Don't be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.

18 Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation."

19 God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.

20 God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.

21 He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.

22 It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do.

23 Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner."

24 Abraham said, "I will swear."

25 Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

26 Abimelech said, "I don't know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today."

27 Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.

28 Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

29 Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?"

30 He said, "You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well."

31 Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there.

32 So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.

34 Abraham lived as a foreigner in the land of the Philistines many days.
