Genesis
Chapter
21
1^^And
Jehovah/God visited Sarah as He had said,
and
Jehovah/God kept on doing {'asah}
unto
Sarah
as
He had intensively decreed/'communicated categorically' {dabar}.
2^^For
Sarah kept on being pregnant,
and
kept on bearing Abraham a son in his old age,
at
the set time of which 'Elohiym/Godhead
had
decreed/'communicated categorically' {dabar}.
3^^And
Abraham kept on calling the name of his son
that
was born unto him,
whom
Sarah bare to him, Isaac {Yitschaq - name means 'laughter'}.
4^^And
Abraham kept on circumcising his son -
Isaac
being eight days old -
as
'Elohiym/Godhead intensively commanded {tsavah}.
5^^And
Abraham . . . {was} an hundred years old,
when
his son Isaac was born.
6^^And
Sarah kept on saying,
'Elohiym/Godhead
has manufactured {'asah}
laughter
{in me},
so
that all who hear will 'Isaac'/laugh {tsachaq}.
7^^And
she kept on saying,
"Who
would have intensely uttered {malal} unto Abraham,
that
Sarah should have caused to give children to suck?
For
I have born him a son in his old age."
8^^And
the child kept on growing,
and
was caused to be weaned.
And
Abraham manufactured {'asah}
a
great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.
{Verses
9-13: Ishmael's Laughter}
9^~And
Sarah kept on perceiving {ra'ah}
the
son of Hagar the Egyptian {Ishmael},
which
she had born unto Abraham,
intensively
laughing/'Isaac'ing {tsachaq}.
{Note: Ishmael is 13 years older then Isaac. Sarah saw Ishmael following Isaac around the camp, mimicking a laugh and pointing to Isaac - making fun of him because of his name.}
10^~Therefore
she kept on saying to Abraham,
"
'Drive away'/'Cast out' this bondwoman and her son.
For
the son of this bondwoman
shall
not keep on being heir with my son,
even
with Isaac."
11^~And
this word/matter {dabar}
kept
on being exceedingly grievous
in
Abraham's sight because of his son.
12^~And
'Elohiym/Godhead said unto Abraham,
"Let
it not keep on being grievous in your sight
because
of the lad, and because of your bondwoman.
In
all that Sarah has kept on saying unto you,
listen
unto her voice;
For
in Isaac {Yitschaq} shall your seed/progeny be called.
13^~And
also of the son of the bondwoman {Ishmael}
I
will make a nation {gowy - gentile nation},
because
he . . . {is} your seed.
14^^And
Abraham rose up early in the morning,
and
kept on taking bread, and a bottle of water,
and
kept on givin it unto Hagar,
putting
it on her shoulder, with the child,
and
intensively kept on sending her away.
And
she kept on moving away,
and
kept on wandering in the desert of Beersheba.
15^^And
the water kept on being at an end in the bottle.
She
caused the casting down of the child under one of the shrubs.
16^^And
she kept on going, and kept on sitting down
in
front of him . . . a good way off,
as
it were a bowshot from a bow
{length you could shoot an arrow from a bow}.
And
she said, "Let me not keep on perceiving
the
death of the child."
And
she lifted up her voice, and kept on weeping.
17^^And
God heard {shama`} the voice of the lad.
And
the angel/messenger of 'Elohiym/Godhead
called
to Hagar out of heaven,
and
kept on saying unto her,
"What
ails you, Hagar? Fear not.
For
'Elohiym/Godhead keeps on hearing
the
voice of the lad."
18^^Arise,
lift up the lad, and cause to hold him in your hand.
For
I will keep on making a great nation {from him}.
19^^And
'Elohiym/Godhead kept on opening her eyes,
and
she kept on perceiving {ra'ah} a well of water.
And
she kept on going,
and
intensively filled the bottle with water,
and
gave the lad causing him to drink.
20^^And
'Elohiym/Godhead was with the lad.
And
he kept on growing,
and
kept on dwelling in prosperity in the desert,
and
became an archer/bowman {qashshath}.
21^^And
he kept on dwelling in prosperity
in
the desert of Paran.
And
his mother kept on fetching
him
a wife out of the land of Egypt.
22^^And
it came to pass at that time,
that
Abimelech {king}
and
Phichol the chief general of his army/host
kept
on speaking unto Abraham, saying, " 'Elohiym/Godhead . . .
{with
you in all that you} do/manufacture {'asah}."
23^^Now
therefore swear yourself
unto
me here by 'Elohiym/Godhead
that
you will not keep on dealing falsely {shaqar} with me,
nor
with my son, nor with my son's son . . .
but
according to the grace
that
I have done/manufactured {'asah - out of respect for the Lord} unto
you, you shall do/manufacture
{'asah
- also out of respect for the Lord} unto me,
and
to the land wherein you have sojourned/'temporarily dwelled.
24^^And Abraham kept on saying, "I keep on swearing."
25^^And
Abraham chide Abimelech
because
of a well of water,
which
Abimelech's slaves had seized {from Abraham}.
26^^And
Abimelech kept on saying,
"I
did not know {'yada}
about
the doing/manufacturing {'asah}
of
this matter/word {dabar}.
neither
did you tell me . . .
neither
had I heard {shama`} . . . but today."
27^^And
Abraham kept on taking sheep and oxen,
and
kept on giving them unto Abimelech.
And
both of them kept on cutting/making a covenant.
28^^And
Abraham kept on causing the setting
of
the seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
29^^And
Abimelech kept on saying unto Abraham,
"What
mean by these seven ewe lambs
which
you have set by themselves?"
30^^And
he {Abraham}kept on saying,
"For
these seven ewe lambs
shall
you keep on taking of my hand,
that
they may be a witness unto me,
that
I have dug this well."
31^^Wherefore
he called that place Beersheba
{B@'er Sheba` - means well of the sevenfold oath}
because
there they swore both of them.
32^^Thus
they kept on cutting/making a covenant at Beersheba.
Then
Abimelech rose up,
and
Phichol the chief commander/general of his army/host,
and
they kept on returning
into
the land of the Philistines.
33^^And
Abraham kept on planting a grove in Beersheba,
and
kept on calling there on the name of Jehovah/God,
the
everlasting 'El/God.
34^^And
Abraham sojourned/'dwelled temporarily'
in
the Philistines' land many days.
