Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1And the LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did unto Sarah as he had spoken.
1ΚΑΙ Κύριος ἐπεσκέψατο τὴν Σάρραν, καθὰ εἶπε, καὶ ἐποίησε Κύριος τῇ Σάρρᾳ καθὰ ἐλάλησε,
2For Sarah conceived, and bare Abraham a son in his old age, at the set time of which God had spoken to him.
2καὶ συλλαβοῦσα ἔτεκε τῷ Ἁβραὰμ υἱὸν εἰς τὸ γῆρας, εἰς τὸν καιρόν, καθὰ ἐλάλησεν αὐτῷ Κύριος.
3And Abraham called the name of his son that was born unto him, whom Sarah bare to him, Isaac.
3καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἁβραὰμ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ τοῦ γενομένου αὐτῷ, ὃν ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ Σάρρα, Ἰσαάκ.
4And Abraham circumcised his son Isaac being eight days old, as God had commanded him.
4περιέτεμε δὲ Ἁβραὰμ τὸν Ἰσαὰκ τῇ ἡμέρᾳ τῇ ὀγδόῃ, καθὰ ἐνετείλατο αὐτῷ ὁ Θεός.
5And Abraham was an hundred years old, when his son Isaac was born unto him.
5καὶ Ἁβραὰμ ἦν ἑκατὸν ἐτῶν, ἡνίκα ἐγένετο αὐτῷ Ἰσαὰκ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ.
6¶ And Sarah said, God hath made me to laugh, so that all that hear will laugh with me.
6εἶπε δὲ Σάρρα· γέλωτά μοι ἐποίησε Κύριος· ὃς γὰρ ἂν ἀκούσῃ, συγχαρεῖταί μοι.
7And she said, Who would have said unto Abraham, that Sarah should have given children suck? for I have born him a son in his old age.
7καὶ εἶπε· τίς ἀναγγελεῖ τῷ Ἁβραάμ, ὅτι θηλάζει παιδίον Σάρρα; ὅτι ἔτεκον υἱὸν ἐν τῷ γήρᾳ μου.
8And the child grew, and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast the same day that Isaac was weaned.
8Καὶ ηὐξήθη τὸ παιδίον καὶ ἀπεγαλακτίσθη, καὶ ἐποίησεν Ἁβραὰμ δοχὴν μεγάλην, ᾗ ἡμέρᾳ ἀπεγαλακτίσθη Ἰσαὰκ ὁ υἱὸς αὐτοῦ.
9¶ And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, which she had born unto Abraham, mocking.
9ἰδοῦσα δὲ Σάρρα τὸν υἱὸν Ἄγαρ τῆς Αἰγυπτίας, ὃς ἐγένετο τῷ Ἁβραάμ, παίζοντα μετὰ Ἰσαὰκ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτῆς·
10Wherefore she said unto Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son: for the son of this bondwoman shall not be heir with my son, even with Isaac.
10καὶ εἶπε τῷ Ἁβραάμ· ἔκβαλε τὴν παιδίσκην ταύτην καὶ τὸν υἱὸν αὐτῆς· οὐ γὰρ μὴ κληρονομήσει ὁ υἱὸς τῆς παιδίσκης ταύτης μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ μου Ἰσαάκ.
11And the thing was very grievous in Abraham’s sight because of his son.
11σκληρὸν δὲ ἐφάνη τὸ ρῆμα σφόδρα ἐναντίον Ἁβραὰμ περὶ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ.
12¶ And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy bondwoman; in all that Sarah hath said unto thee, hearken unto her voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
12εἶπε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς τῷ Ἁβραάμ· μὴ σκληρὸν ἔστω ἐναντίον σου περὶ τοῦ παιδίου καὶ περὶ τῆς παιδίσκης· πάντα ἂν ὅσα εἴπῃ σοι Σάρρα, ἄκουε τῆς φωνῆς αὐτῆς, ὅτι ἐν Ἰσαὰκ κληθήσεταί σοι σπέρμα.
13And also of the son of the bondwoman will I make a nation, because he is thy seed.
13καὶ τὸν υἱὸν δὲ τῆς παιδίσκης ταύτης εἰς ἔθνος μέγα ποιήσω αὐτόν, ὅτι σπέρμα σόν ἐστιν.
14And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread, and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and the child, and sent her away: and she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.
14ἀνέστη δὲ Ἁβραὰμ τὸ πρωΐ καὶ ἔλαβεν ἄρτους καὶ ἀσκὸν ὕδατος καὶ ἔδωκε τῇ Ἄγαρ καὶ ἐπέθηκεν ἐπὶ τῶν ὤμων αὐτῆς τὸ παιδίον καὶ ἀπέστειλεν αὐτήν. ἀπελθοῦσα δὲ ἐπλανᾶτο κατὰ τὴν ἔρημον, κατὰ τὸ φρέαρ τοῦ ὅρκου.
15And the water was spent in the bottle, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.
15ἐξέλιπε δὲ τὸ ὕδωρ ἐκ τοῦ ἀσκοῦ, καὶ ἔρριψε τὸ παιδίον ὑποκάτω μιᾶς ἐλάτης.
16And she went, and sat her down over against him a good way off, as it were a bowshot: for she said, Let me not see the death of the child. And she sat over against him , and lift up her voice, and wept.
16ἀπελθοῦσα δὲ ἐκάθητο ἀπέναντι αὐτοῦ μακρόθεν ὡσεὶ τόξου βολήν· εἶπε γάρ, οὐ μὴ ἴδω τὸν θάνατον τοῦ παιδίου μου. καὶ ἐκάθισεν ἀπέναντι αὐτοῦ, ἀναβοῆσαν δὲ τὸ παιδίον ἔκλαυσεν.
17And God heard the voice of the lad; and the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? fear not; for God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is .
17εἰσήκουσε δὲ ὁ Θεὸς τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ παιδίου ἐκ τοῦ τόπου, οὗ ἦν, καὶ ἐκάλεσεν ἄγγελος Θεοῦ τὴν Ἄγαρ ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ· τί ἐστιν Ἄγαρ; μὴ φοβοῦ· ἐπακήκοε γὰρ ὁ Θεὸς τῆς φωνῆς τοῦ παιδίου ἐκ τοῦ τόπου, οὗ ἐστιν.
18Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thine hand; for I will make him a great nation.
18ἀνάστηθι καὶ λαβὲ τὸ παιδίον καὶ κράτησον τῇ χειρί σου αὐτό· εἰς γὰρ ἔθνος μέγα ποιήσω αὐτό.
19And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water; and she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.
19καὶ ἀνέῳξεν ὁ Θεὸς τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτῆς, καὶ εἶδε φρέαρ ὕδατος ζῶντος καὶ ἐπορεύθη καὶ ἔπλησε τὸν ἀσκὸν ὕδατος καὶ ἐπότισε τὸ παιδίον.
20And God was with the lad; and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
20καὶ ἦν ὁ Θεὸς μετὰ τοῦ παιδίου, καὶ ηὐξήθη. καὶ κατῴκησεν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ἐγένετο δὲ τοξότης.
21And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran: and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
21καὶ κατῴκησεν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ τῇ Φαράν, καὶ ἔλαβεν αὐτῷ ἡ μήτηρ γυναῖκα ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου.
22¶ And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phichol the chief captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest:
22Ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ καὶ εἶπεν Ἀβιμέλεχ καὶ Ὁχοζὰθ ὁ νυμφαγωγὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ Φιχὸλ ὁ ἀρχιστράτηγος τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ πρὸς Ἁβραὰμ λέγων· ὁ Θεὸς μετὰ σοῦ ἐν πᾶσιν, οἷς ἐὰν ποιῇς·
23Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son: but according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
23νῦν οὖν ὄμοσόν μοι τὸν Θεόν, μὴ ἀδικήσειν με μηδὲ τὸ σπέρμα μου, μηδὲ τὸ ὄνομά μου· ἀλλὰ κατὰ τὴν δικαιοσύνην, ἣν ἐποίησα μετὰ σοῦ, ποιήσεις μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, καὶ τῇ γῇ, ᾗ σὺ παρῴκησας ἐν αὐτῇ.
24And Abraham said, I will swear.
24καὶ εἶπεν Ἁβραάμ· ἐγὼ ὀμοῦμαι.
25And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of a well of water, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.
25καὶ ἤλεγξεν Ἁβραὰμ τὸν Ἀβιμέλεχ περὶ τῶν φρεάτων τοῦ ὕδατος, ὧν ἀφείλοντο οἱ παῖδες τοῦ Ἀβιμέλεχ.
26And Abimelech said, I wot not who hath done this thing: neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it , but to day.
26καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ Ἀβιμέλεχ· οὐκ ἔγνων τίς ἐποίησέ σοι τὸ ρῆμα τοῦτο, οὐδὲ σύ μοι ἀπήγγειλας, οὐδὲ ἐγὼ ἤκουσα, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ σήμερον.
27And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech; and both of them made a covenant.
27καὶ ἔλαβεν Ἁβραὰμ πρόβατα καὶ μόσχους, καὶ ἔδωκε τῷ Ἀβιμέλεχ, καὶ διέθεντο ἀμφότεροι διαθήκην.
28And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.
28καὶ ἔστησεν Ἁβραὰμ ἑπτὰ ἀμνάδας προβάτων μόνας.
29And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?
29καὶ εἶπεν Ἀβιμέλεχ τῷ Ἁβραάμ· τί εἰσιν αἱ ἑπτὰ ἀμνάδες τῶν προβάτων τούτων, ἃς ἔστησας μόνας;
30And he said, For these seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that they may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.
30καὶ εἶπεν Ἁβραάμ, ὅτι τὰς ἑπτὰ ἀμνάδας λήψῃ παρ᾿ ἐμοῦ, ἵνα ὦσί μοι εἰς μαρτύριον, ὅτι ἐγὼ ὤρυξα τὸ φρέαρ τοῦτο.
31Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba; because there they sware both of them.
31διὰ τοῦτο ἐπωνόμασε τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ τόπου ἐκείνου, Φρέαρ ὁρκισμοῦ, ὅτι ἐκεῖ ὤμοσαν ἀμφότεροι.
32Thus they made a covenant at Beer-sheba: then Abimelech rose up, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.
32καὶ διέθεντο διαθήκην ἐν τῷ φρέατι τοῦ ὁρκισμοῦ. ἀνέστη δὲ Ἀβιμέλεχ καὶ Ὁχοζὰθ ὁ νυμφαγωγὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ Φιχὸλ ὁ ἀρχιστράτητος τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπέστρεψαν εἰς τὴν γῆν τῶν Φυλιστιείμ.
33¶ And Abraham planted a grove in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of the LORD , the everlasting God.
33καὶ ἐφύτευσεν· Ἁβραὰμ ἄρουραν ἐπὶ τῷ φρέατι τοῦ ὅρκου καὶ ἐπεκαλέσατο ἐκεῖ τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου, Θεὸς αἰώνιος.
34And Abraham sojourned in the Philistines’ land many days.
34παρῴκησε δὲ Ἁβραὰμ ἐν τῇ γῇ τῶν Φυλιστιεὶμ ἡμέρας πολλάς.
