Genesis 20

Studimi

   

1 Der På brød Abraham op derfra til Sydlandet og slog sig ned mellem Kadesj og Sjur og boede som fremmed i Gerar.

2 Da nu Abraham sagde om sin Hustru Sara, at hun var hans Søster, sendte Kong Abimelek af Gerar Bud og lod Sara hente til sig.

3 Men Gud kom til Abimelek i en Drøm om Natten og sagde til ham: "Se, du skal for den Kvindes Skyld, som du har taget, thi hun er en anden Mands Hustru!"

4 Abimelek var imidlertid ikke kommet hende nær; og han sagde: "Herre, vil du virkelig.slå retfærdige Folk ihjel?

5 Har han ikke sagt mig, at hun er hans Søster? Og hun selv har også sagt, at han er hendes Broder; i mit Hjertes Troskyldighed og med rene Hænder har jeg gjort dette."

6 Da sagde Gud til ham i Drømmen: "Jeg ved, at du har gjort det i dit Hjertes Troskyldighed, og jeg har også hindret dig i at synde imod mig; derfor tilstedte jeg dig ikke at røre hende.

7 Men send nu Mandens Hustru tilbage, thi han er en Profet, så han kan gå i Forbøn for dig, og du kan blive i Live; men sender du hende ikke tilbage, så vid, at du og alle dine er dødsens!"

8 Tidligt næste Morgen lod Abimelek alle sine Tjenere kalde og fortalte dem det hele, og Mændene blev såre forfærdede.

9 Men Abimelek lod Abraham kalde og sagde til ham: "Hvad har du dog gjort imod os? Og hvad har jeg forbrudt imod dig, at du bragte denne store Synd over mig og mit ige? Du har gjort imod mig, hvad man ikke bør gøre!"

10 Og Abimelek sagde til Abraham: "Hvad bragte dig til at handle således?"

11 Abraham svarede: "Jo, jeg tænkte: Her er sikkert ingen Gudsfrygt på dette Sted, så de vil slå mig ihjel for min Hustrus Skyld.

12 Desuden er hun virkelig min Søster, min Faders Datter, kun ikke min Moders; men hun blev min Hustru.

13 Og da nu Gud lod mig flakke om fjernt fra min Faders Hus, sagde jeg til hende: Den Godhed må du vise mig, at du overalt, hvor vi kommer hen, siger, at jeg er din Broder."

14 Derpå tog Abimelelk Småkvæg og Hornkvæg, Trælle og Trælkvinder og gav Abraham dem og sendte hans Hustru Sara tilbage til ham;

15 og Abimelek sagde til ham: "Se, mit Land ligger åbent for dig; slå dig ned, hvor du lyster!"

16 Men til Sara sagde han: "Jeg har givet din Broder 1000 Sekel Sølv, det skal være dig Godtgørelse for alt, hvad der er tilstødt dig. Hermed har du fået fuld Oprejsning."

17 Men Abraham gik i Forbøn hos Gud, og Gud helbredte Abimelek og hans Hustru og Medhustruer, så at de atter fik Børn.

18 HE EN havde nemlig lukket for ethvert Moderliv i Abimeleks Hus for Abrahams Hustru Saras Skyld.

1209. That by “Gerar” are signified the things that have been revealed concerning faith, and thus in general faith itself, is evident from the passages where Gerar is mentioned (as Genesis 20:1; 26:1, 17), concerning which signification of “Gerar,” of the Lord’s Divine mercy hereafter.

Genesis 10

Studimi

   

1 Now this is the history of the generations of the sons of Noah and of Shem, Ham, and Japheth. Sons were born to them after the flood.

2 The sons of Japheth: Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Meshech, and Tiras.

3 The sons of Gomer: Ashkenaz, Riphath, and Togarmah.

4 The sons of Javan: Elishah, Tarshish, Kittim, and Dodanim.

5 Of these were the islands of the nations divided in their lands, everyone after his language, after their families, in their nations.

6 The sons of Ham: Cush, Mizraim, Put, and Canaan.

7 The sons of Cush: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, and Sabteca. The sons of Raamah: Sheba and Dedan.

8 Cush became the father of Nimrod. He began to be a mighty one in the earth.

9 He was a mighty hunter before Yahweh. Therefore it is said, "Like Nimrod, a mighty hunter before Yahweh."

10 The beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar.

11 Out of that land he went forth into Assyria, and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah,

12 and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (the same is the great city).

13 Mizraim became the father of Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim,

14 Pathrusim, Casluhim (which the Philistines descended from), and Caphtorim.

15 Canaan became the father of Sidon (his firstborn), Heth,

16 the Jebusite, the Amorite, the Girgashite,

17 the Hivite, the Arkite, the Sinite,

18 the Arvadite, the Zemarite, and the Hamathite. Afterward the families of the Canaanites were spread abroad.

19 The border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as you go toward Gerar, to Gaza; as you go toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboiim, to Lasha.

20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, in their nations.

21 To Shem, the father of all the children of Eber, the elder brother of Japheth, to him also were children born.

22 The sons of Shem: Elam, Asshur, Arpachshad, Lud, and Aram.

23 The sons of Aram: Uz, Hul, Gether, and Mash.

24 Arpachshad became the father of Shelah. Shelah became the father of Eber.

25 To Eber were born two sons. The name of the one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided. His brother's name was Joktan.

26 Joktan became the father of Almodad, Sheleph, Hazarmaveth, Jerah,

27 Hadoram, Uzal, Diklah,

28 Obal, Abimael, Sheba,

29 Ophir, Havilah, and Jobab. All these were the sons of Joktan.

30 Their dwelling was from Mesha, as you go toward Sephar, the mountain of the east.

31 These are the sons of Shem, after their families, after their languages, in their lands, after their nations.

32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, after their generations, in their nations. Of these were the nations divided in the earth after the flood.
