Genesis 12
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
1Now the LORD said unto Abram: 'Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee.
1耶和華對 亞伯蘭 說：「你要離開本地、本族、父家，往我所要指示你的地去。
2And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and be thou a blessing.
2我必叫你成為大國。我必賜福給你，叫你的名為大；你也要叫別人得福。
3And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.'
3為你祝福的，我必賜福與他；那咒詛你的，我必咒詛他。地上的萬族都要因你得福。」
4So Abram went, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.
4亞伯蘭 就照着耶和華的吩咐去了； 羅得 也和他同去。 亞伯蘭 出 哈蘭 的時候年七十五歲。
5And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.
5亞伯蘭 將他妻子 撒萊 和姪兒 羅得 ，連他們在 哈蘭 所積蓄的財物、所得的人口，都帶往 迦南 地去。他們就到了 迦南 地。
6And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Shechem, unto the terebinth of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
6亞伯蘭 經過那地，到了 示劍 地方、 摩利 橡樹那裏。那時 迦南 人住在那地。
7And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said: 'Unto thy seed will I give this land'; and he builded there an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.
7耶和華向 亞伯蘭 顯現，說：「我要把這地賜給你的後裔。」 亞伯蘭 就在那裏為向他顯現的耶和華築了一座壇。
8And he removed from thence unto the mountain on the east of Beth-el, and pitched his tent, having Beth-el on the west, and Ai on the east; and he builded there an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.
8從那裏他又遷到 伯特利 東邊的山，支搭帳棚；西邊是 伯特利 ，東邊是 艾 。他在那裏又為耶和華築了一座壇，求告耶和華的名。
9And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the South.
9後來 亞伯蘭 又漸漸遷往南地去。
10And there was a famine in the land; and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was sore in the land.
10那地遭遇饑荒。因饑荒甚大， 亞伯蘭 就下 埃及 去，要在那裏暫居。
11And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife: 'Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon.
11將近 埃及 ，就對他妻子 撒萊 說：「我知道你是容貌俊美的婦人。
12And it will come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they will say: This is his wife; and they will kill me, but thee they will keep alive.
12埃及 人看見你必說：『這是他的妻子』，他們就要殺我，卻叫你存活。
13Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister; that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.'
13求你說，你是我的妹子，使我因你得平安，我的命也因你存活。」
14And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
14及至 亞伯蘭 到了 埃及 ， 埃及 人看見那婦人極其美貌。
15And the princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
15法老的臣宰看見了她，就在法老面前誇獎她。那婦人就被帶進法老的宮去。
16And he dealt well with Abram for her sake; and he had sheep, and oxen, and he-asses, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-asses, and camels.
16法老因這婦人就厚待 亞伯蘭 ， 亞伯蘭 得了許多牛、羊、駱駝、公驢、母驢、僕婢。
17And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.
17耶和華因 亞伯蘭 妻子 撒萊 的緣故，降大災與法老和他的全家。
18And Pharaoh called Abram, and said: 'What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
18法老就召了 亞伯蘭 來，說：「你這向我做的是甚麼事呢？為甚麼沒有告訴我她是你的妻子？
19Why saidst thou: She is my sister? so that I took her to be my wife; now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.'
19為甚麼說她是你的妹子，以致我把她取來要作我的妻子？現在你的妻子在這裏，可以帶她走吧。」
20And Pharaoh gave men charge concerning him; and they brought him on the way, and his wife, and all that he had.
20於是法老吩咐人將 亞伯蘭 和他妻子，並他所有的都送走了。
