창21:8 이삭과 이스마엘의 갈등 
^21:8The child grew, and was weaned. Abraham made a great feast on the day that Isaac was weaned. ^21:9Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian, whom she had borne to Abraham, mocking. ^21:10Therefore she said to Abraham, "Cast out this handmaid and her son! For the son of this handmaid will not be heir with my son, even with Isaac." 

^21:11The thing was very grievous in Abraham's sight on account of his son. ^21:12God 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. ^21:13Also of the son of the handmaid will I make a nation, because he is your seed."

창21:14 쫓겨나는 하갈과 이스마엘 
^21:14Abraham 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. ^21:15The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs. ^21:16She 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.

창21:17 하갈 모자를 보호하신 여호와 
^21:17God 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. ^21:18Get up, lift up the boy, and hold him in your hand. For I will make him a great nation." 

^21:19God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink. ^21:20God was with the boy, and he grew. He lived in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer. ^21:21He lived in the wilderness of Paran. His mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.

창21:22 브엘세바의 언약 
^21:22It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his host spoke to Abraham, saying, "God is with you in all that you do. ^21:23Now 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 sojourned." 

^21:24Abraham said, "I will swear." ^21:25Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away. ^21:26Abimelech said, I don't know who has done this thing. Neither did you tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today." 

^21:27Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant. ^21:28Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves. ^21:29Abimelech said to Abraham, "What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?" 

^21:30He 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." ^21:31Therefore he called that place Beersheba, because they both swore there. ^21:32So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines. ^21:33Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God. ^21:34Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.

He said, "Here I am." 

^22:2He said, "Now take your son, your only son, whom you love, even Isaac, and go into the land of Moriah. Offer him there for a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I will tell you of."

창22:3 아브라함의 순종 
^22:3Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his donkey, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son. He split the wood for the burnt offering, and rose up, and went to the place of which God had told him. ^22:4On the third day Abraham lifted up his eyes, and saw the place far off. ^22:5Abraham said to his young men, "Stay here with the donkey. The boy and I will go yonder. We will worship, and come back to you. ^22:6Abraham took the wood of the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son. He took in his hand the fire and the knife. They both went together. ^22:7Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, "My father?" 

He said, "Here I am, my son." 

He said, "Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?" 

^22:8Abraham said, "God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son." So they both went together. ^22:9They came to the place which God had told him of. Abraham built the altar there, and laid the wood in order, bound Isaac his son, and laid him on the altar, on the wood. ^22:10Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to kill his son.

창22:11 준비하시는 여호와 
^22:11The angel of Yahweh called to him out of the sky, and said, "Abraham, Abraham!" 

He said, "Here I am." 

^22:12He said, "Don't lay your hand on the boy, neither do anything to him. For now I know that you fear God, seeing you have not withheld your son, your only son, from me." 

^22:13Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and saw that behind him was a ram caught in the thicket by his horns. Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering instead of his son. ^22:14Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh-jireh. As it is said to this day, "In Yahweh's mountain it will be provided.

창22:15 확인된 아브라함의 축복 
^22:15The angel of Yahweh called to Abraham a second time out of the sky, ^22:16and said, "I have sworn by myself, says Yahweh, because you have done this thing, and have not withheld your son, your only son, ^22:17that in blessing I will bless you, and in multiplying I will multiply your seed as the stars of the heavens, and as the sand which is on the seashore. Your seed will possess the gate of his enemies. ^22:18In your seed will all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you have obeyed my voice." 

^22:19So Abraham returned to his young men, and they rose up and went together to Beersheba. Abraham lived at Beersheba.

창22:20 아브라함 친척의 족보 
^22:20It happened after these things, that it was told Abraham, saying, "Behold, Milcah, she also has borne children to your brother Nahor: ^22:21Uz his firstborn, Buz his brother, Kemuel the father of Aram, ^22:22Chesed, Hazo, Pildash, Jidlaph, and Bethuel." ^22:23Bethuel became the father of Rebekah. These eight Milcah bore to Nahor, Abraham's brother. ^22:24His concubine, whose name was Reumah, also bare Tebah, Gaham, Tahash, and Maacah.

^23:5The children of Heth answered Abraham, saying to him, ^23:6"Hear us, my lord. You are a prince of God among us. In the choice of our tombs bury your dead. None of us will withhold from you his tomb, but that you may bury your dead." 

^23:7Abraham rose up, and bowed himself to the people of the land, even to the children of Heth. ^23:8He talked with them, saying, "If it be your mind that I should bury my dead out of my sight, hear me, and entreat for me to Ephron the son of Zohar, ^23:9that he may give me the cave of Machpelah, which he has, which is in the end of his field. For the full price let him give it to me in the midst of you for a possession of a burying-place."

창23:10 헷 족속과의 거래 
^23:10Now Ephron was sitting in the midst of the children of Heth. Ephron the Hittite answered Abraham in the hearing of the children of Heth, even of all who went in at the gate of his city, saying, ^23:11"No, my lord, hear me. I give you the field, and I give you the cave that is in it. In the presence of the children of my people I give it to you. Bury your dead." 

^23:12Abraham bowed himself down before the people of the land. ^23:13He spoke to Ephron in the audience of the people of the land, saying, "But if you will, please hear me. I will give the price of the field. Take it from me, and I will bury my dead there." 

^23:14Ephron answered Abraham, saying to him, ^23:15"My lord, listen to me. What is a piece of land worth four hundred shekels of silver between me and you? Therefore bury your dead." 

^23:16Abraham listened to Ephron. Abraham weighed to Ephron the silver which he had named in the audience of the children of Heth, four hundred shekels of silver, according to the current merchants' standard. 

^23:17So the field of Ephron, which was in Machpelah, which was before Mamre, the field, the cave which was therein, and all the trees that were in the field, that were in all the border of it round about, were made sure ^23:18to Abraham for a possession in the presence of the children of Heth, before all who went in at the gate of his city. ^23:19After this, Abraham buried Sarah his wife in the cave of the field of Machpelah before Mamre (the same is Hebron), in the land of Canaan. ^23:20The field, and the cave that is therein, were made sure to Abraham for a possession of a burying place by the children of Heth.

^24:5The servant said to him, "What if the woman isn't willing to follow me to this land? Must I bring your son again to the land you came from?" 

^24:6Abraham said to him, "Beware that you don't bring my son there again. ^24:7Yahweh, the God of heaven, who took me from my father's house, and from the land of my birth, who spoke to me, and who swore to me, saying, 'To your descendants I will give this land.' He will send his angel before you, and you shall take a wife for my son from there. ^24:8If the woman isn't willing to follow you, then you shall be clear from this my oath. Only you shall not bring my son there again." 

^24:9The servant put his hand under the thigh of Abraham his master, and swore to him concerning this matter.

창24:10 리브가를 만난 엘리에셀 
^24:10The servant took ten camels, of his master's camels, and departed, having all goodly things of his master's in his hand. He arose, and went to Mesopotamia, to the city of Nahor. ^24:11He made the camels kneel down outside the city by the well of water at the time of evening, the time that women go out to draw water. ^24:12He said, "Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, please give me success this day, and show kindness to my master Abraham. ^24:13Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. The daughters of the men of the city are coming out to draw water. ^24:14Let it happen, that the young lady to whom I will say, 'Please let down your pitcher, that I may drink.' She will say, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink.' Let the same be she who you have appointed for your servant Isaac. Thereby will I know that you have shown kindness to my master." 

^24:15It happened, before he had done speaking, that behold, Rebekah came out, who was born to Bethuel the son of Milcah, the wife of Nahor, Abraham's brother, with her pitcher on her shoulder.

창24:16 라반 집의 엘리에셀 
^24:16The young lady was very beautiful to look at, a virgin, neither had any man known her. She went down to the spring, filled her pitcher, and came up. ^24:17The servant ran to meet her, and said, "Please give me a drink, a little water from your pitcher." 

^24:18She said, "Drink, my lord." She hurried, and let down her pitcher on her hand, and gave him drink. ^24:19When she had done giving him drink, she said, "I will also draw for your camels, until they have done drinking." ^24:20She hurried, and emptied her pitcher into the trough, and ran again to the well to draw, and drew for all his camels. 

^24:21The man looked steadfastly at her, holding his peace, to know whether Yahweh had made his journey prosperous or not. ^24:22It happened, as the camels had done drinking, that the man took a golden ring of half a shekel weight, and two bracelets for her hands of ten shekels weight of gold, ^24:23and said, "Whose daughter are you? Please tell me. Is there room in your father's house for us to lodge in?" 

^24:24She said to him, "I am the daughter of Bethuel the son of Milcah, whom she bore to Nahor." ^24:25She said moreover to him, "We have both straw and provender enough, and room to lodge in." 

^24:26The man bowed his head, and worshiped Yahweh. ^24:27He said, "Blessed be Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken his lovingkindness and his truth toward my master. As for me, Yahweh has led me in the way to the house of my master's relatives." 

^24:28The young lady ran, and told her mother's house about these words. ^24:29Rebekah had a brother, and his name was Laban. Laban ran out to the man, to the spring. ^24:30It happened, when he saw the ring, and the bracelets on his sister's hands, and when he heard the words of Rebekah his sister, saying, "This is what the man said to me," that he came to the man. Behold, he was standing by the camels at the spring. ^24:31He said, "Come in, you blessed of Yahweh. Why do you stand outside? For I have prepared the house, and room for the camels." 

^24:32The man came into the house, and he unloaded the camels. He gave straw and provender for the camels, and water to wash his feet and the feet of the men who were with him. ^24:33Food was set before him to eat. But he said, "I will not eat until I have told my message." 

He said, "Speak on."

창24:34 이삭을 위한 청혼 
^24:34He said, "I am Abraham's servant. ^24:35Yahweh has blessed my master greatly. He has become great. He has given him flocks and herds, silver and gold, men-servants and maid-servants, and camels and donkeys. ^24:36Sarah, my master's wife, bore a son to my master when she was old. He has given all that he has to him. ^24:37My master made me swear, saying, 'You shall not take a wife for my son of the daughters of the Canaanites, in whose land I live, ^24:38but you shall go to my father's house, and to my relatives, and take a wife for my son.' ^24:39I said to my master, 'What if the woman will not follow me?' ^24:40He said to me, 'Yahweh, before whom I walk, will send his angel with you, and prosper your way. You shall take a wife for my son of my relatives, and of my father's house. ^24:41Then will you be clear from my oath, when you come to my relatives. If they don't give her to you, you shall be clear from my oath.' ^24:42I came this day to the spring, and said, 'Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, if now you do prosper my way which I go. ^24:43Behold, I am standing by the spring of water. Let it happen, that the maiden who comes forth to draw, to whom I will say, Give me, I pray you, a little water from your pitcher to drink. ^24:44She will tell me, "Drink, and I will also draw for your camels." Let the same be the woman whom Yahweh has appointed for my master's son.' ^24:45Before I had done speaking in my heart, behold, Rebekah came forth with her pitcher on her shoulder. She went down to the spring, and drew. I said to her, 'Please let me drink.' ^24:46She hurried and let down her pitcher from her shoulder, and said, 'Drink, and I will also give your camels a drink.' So I drank, and she made the camels drink also. ^24:47I asked her, and said, 'Whose daughter are you?' She said, 'The daughter of Bethuel, Nahor's son, whom Milcah bare to him.' I put the ring on her nose, and the bracelets on her hands. ^24:48I bowed my head, and worshiped Yahweh, and blessed Yahweh, the God of my master Abraham, who had led me in the right way to take my master's brother's daughter for his son. ^24:49Now if you will deal kindly and truly with my master, tell me. If not, tell me. That I may turn to the right hand, or to the left."

창24:50 리브가를 보내는 라반과 브두엘 
^24:50Then Laban and Bethuel answered, "The thing proceeds from Yahweh. We can't speak to you bad or good. ^24:51Behold, Rebekah is before you, take her, and go, and let her be your master's son's wife, as Yahweh has spoken." 

^24:52It happened that when Abraham's servant heard their words, he bowed himself down to the earth to Yahweh. ^24:53The servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and clothing, and gave them to Rebekah. He gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things. ^24:54They ate and drank, he and the men who were with him, and stayed all night. They rose up in the morning, and he said, "Send me away to my master." 

^24:55Her brother and her mother said, "Let the young lady stay with us a few days, at least ten. After that she will go." 

^24:56He said to them, "Don't hinder me, seeing Yahweh has prospered my way. Send me away that I may go to my master." 

^24:57They said, "We will call the young lady, and ask her." ^24:58They called Rebekah, and said to her, "Will you go with this man?" 

She said, "I will go." 

^24:59They sent away Rebekah, their sister, with her nurse, Abraham's servant, and his men. ^24:60They blessed Rebekah, and said to her, "Our sister, may you be the mother of thousands of ten thousands, and let your seed possess the gate of those who hate them." 

^24:61Rebekah arose with her ladies. They rode on the camels, and followed the man. The servant took Rebekah, and went his way.

^24:62Isaac came from the way of Beer Lahai Roi. For he lived in the land of the South. ^24:63Isaac went out to meditate in the field at the evening. He lifted up his eyes, and saw, and, behold, there were camels coming. ^24:64Rebekah lifted up her eyes, and when she saw Isaac, she dismounted from the camel. ^24:65She said to the servant, "Who is the man who is walking in the field to meet us?" 

The servant said, "It is my master." 

She took her veil, and covered herself. ^24:66The servant told Isaac all the things that he had done. ^24:67Isaac brought her into his mother Sarah's tent, and took Rebekah, and she became his wife. He loved her. Isaac was comforted after his mother's death.
