< Genesis 21 >
1 Gitagad ni Yahweh si Sara sumala sa iyang gisulti nga pagabuhaton, ug gibuhat ni Yahweh ang iyang gisaad kang Sara.
Yahweh was very kind to Sarah, just as he said he would be. He did for Sarah exactly what he promised to do.
2 Nagmabdos si Sara ug nanganak ug usa ka batang lalaki alang kang Abraham sa natigulang na siya, sumala sa gitagal nga panahon nga gisulti sa Dios kaniya.
She became pregnant and gave birth to a son for Abraham when he was very old, at the time God promised it would happen.
3 Ginganlan ni Abraham ang iyang anak nga lalaki ug Isaac, siya nga gipakatawo kaniya, nga gipanganak ni Sara.
Abraham gave the name ‘Isaac’ (which means ‘he laughs’) to the son Sarah gave birth to.
4 Gituli ni Abraham ang iyang anak nga si Isaac sa dihang walo na kini ka adlaw, sumala sa gisugo kaniya sa Dios.
Abraham circumcised his son Isaac when his son was eight days old, just as God commanded him to do.
5 Nagpanuigon si Abraham ug 100 ka tuig sa pagkatawo ni Isaac alang kaniya.
Abraham was 100 years old when his son Isaac was born.
6 Miingon si Sara, “Gipakatawa ako sa Dios; ang tanang makadungog mangatawa uban kanako.”
And Sarah said, “[Although I was sad before because I did not have any children], God has now enabled me to laugh, and everyone who hears about what God has done for me will laugh with me.”
7 Miingon usab siya, “Kinsa ba ang makaingon kang Abraham nga si Sara makapasuso pa sa mga bata, ug ania ako nakapahimugso pa kaniya ug usa ka batang lalaki sa iyang katigulangon!”
Then she also said, “No one would have said to Abraham that some day Sarah would nurse a child, but I have given birth to a son when Abraham is very old.”
8 Midako ang bata ug gilutas nila kini, ug nagpakombira si Abraham sa adlaw sa paglutas kang Isaac.
The baby grew and was weaned [when he was about three years old]. On that day, Abraham prepared a large feast to celebrate.
9 Nakita ni Sara nga gibiaybiay sa anak ni Hagar nga Ehiptohanon si Isaac, nga gipakatawo ni Hagar alang kang Abraham.
([One day/During the feast)] Sarah noticed that Hagar’s son Ishmael was (making fun of/playing with) Isaac.
10 Busa gisultihan niya si Abraham, “Papahawaa kining ulipong babaye ug ang iyang anak: kay ang anak niining sulugoong babaye dili mahimong manununod uban ang akong anak, nga si Isaac.”
So she said to Abraham, “Get rid of that slave woman from Egypt and her son! I do not want the son of that slave woman to be alone (OR, to be an heir along with) my son, Isaac!”
11 Kining mga butanga nakapaguol pag-ayo kang Abraham tungod sa iyang anak nga lalaki.
Abraham was very distressed about the matter, because he was concerned about his son [Ishmael].
12 Apan gisultihan sa Dios si Abraham, “Ayaw kaguol tungod sa bata, ug tungod sa imong ulipong babaye. Paminawa ang tanang mga pulong nga iyang gisulti kanimo mahitungod niining mga butanga, tungod kay pinaagi kang Isaac paganganlan ang imong kaliwatan.
But God said to Abraham, “Do not be distressed about your son, Ishmael, and about your maidservant, Hagar. Do everything that Sarah tells you to do. Listen to her, because Isaac is the one who will be considered the ancestor of the descendants I promised to give you.
13 Himoon ko usab nga dakong nasod ang anak nga lalaki sa ulipong babaye, tungod kay kaliwat mo man gihapon siya.”
But I will also cause the son of your maidservant to be the ancestor of the people of a great nation [MTY], because he is also your son.”
14 Mibangon si Abraham sayo sa kabuntagon, ug mikuha ug tinapay ug panit nga panudlanan sa tubig, ug gihatag ngadto kang Hagar, gipapas-an niya kini. Gihatag niya ang bata kaniya ug gipalakaw. Mipahawa si Hagar ug naglatagaw didto sa kamingawan sa Beersheba.
So Abraham got up early the next morning. He got some food ready, put water in a container, and gave them to Hagar. He put them [in a bag] on her shoulder and sent them away. They wandered in the desert near Beersheba [town].
15 Sa nahurot na ang tubig sa panit nga panudlanan, gibiyaan niya ang bata ilalom sa usa ka kahoy.
After they had drunk all the water in the container, she put her son under one of the bushes there.
16 Unya milakaw siya ug milingkod palayo dyutay sa bata, sama sa gilay-on sa pagbuhi sa pana, kay miingon siya, “Dili ako makaako sa pagtan-aw sa kamatayon sa bata.” Sa paglingkod niya atbang sa bata, missinggit siya ug mihilak.
Then she went and sat nearby, about (as far as someone can shoot an arrow/100 meters away), because she thought, “I cannot endure seeing my son die!” As she sat there, she began to cry [loudly] [MTY].
17 Nadungog sa Dios ang tingog sa bata, ug gitawag sa anghel sa Dios si Hagar gikan sa langit, ug miingon kaniya, “Unsa bay nakapahasol kanimo, Hagar? Ayaw kahadlok, kay nadungog sa Dios ang tingog sa bata sa nahimutangan niini.
[The boy was crying too.] And God heard the boy crying. So he caused one of his angels to call out from heaven to Hagar, saying, “Hagar, are you worried about something? Do not be afraid, because God has heard the boy crying there.
18 Tindog, sakwata ang bata, ug dasiga siya; kay himoon ko siyang dakong nasod.”
Help your son up, and hold his hand as you leave, because I will cause his descendants to become a great nation.”
19 Unya giablihan sa Dios ang iyang mga mata, ug nakita niya ang atabay nga may tubig. Miadto siya ug gipuno ug tubig ang panit nga panudlanan, ug gipainom ang bata.
Then God showed her a well of water. So she went to the well and filled the container with water, and gave the boy a drink.
20 Ang Dios nag-uban sa bata, ug nagtubo siya. Mipuyo siya sa kamingawan ug nahimong usa ka magpapana.
God helped the boy as he grew up. He lived in the desert and became a good (archer/man who hunts with bow and arrows).
21 Mipuyo siya sa kamingawan sa Paran, ug ang iyang inahan mikuha ug usa ka asawa alang kaniya gikan sa yuta sa Ehipto.
He lived in Paran Desert. While e was there, Hagar got a wife for him from Egypt.
22 Miabot ang panahon nga sila si Abimelec ug si Phicol ang kapitan sa iyang mga kasundalohan nakigsulti kang Abraham, ug miingon, “Ang Dios nag-uban kanimo sa tanan nimong gibuhat.
At that time, [King] Abimelech and Phicol, the commander of his army, said to Abraham, “It is clear that God helps you with everything that you do.
23 Busa karon panumpa kanako dinhi pinaagi sa Dios nga dili mo gayod ako limbongan, ni bisan ang akong mga kaanakan, ni bisan ang akong mga kaliwatan. Ipakita kanako ug didto sa yuta nga imong gipuy-an ang sama gihapong kasabotan sa pagkamatinud-anon nga akong gipakita kanimo.”
So now (solemnly promise/swear) to me here, as God is listening, that you will (not deceive/act fairly to) me and my children and my descendants, in return for my being kind to you. Be kind to me and to all the people here in the country where you are now living.”
24 Si Abraham mitubag, “Ipanumpa ko.”
So Abraham promised to do that.
25 Mireklamo usab si Abraham kang Abimelec mahitungod sa atabay nga giilog sa mga sulugoon ni Abimelec gikan kaniya.
[Then] Abraham complained to Abimelech about one of Abraham’s wells that Abimelech’s servants had seized.
26 Si Abimelec miingon, “Wala ako masayod kinsa ang nagbuhat niining mga butanga. Wala ka man magsulti kanako kaniadto; wala ako makadungog niini kondili karon lamang.”
But Abimelech said, “I do not know who has done that. You did not tell me previously, and I did not hear about it until today.”
27 Busa gikuha ni Abraham ang karnero ug ang baka ug gihatag kini kang Abimelec, ug naghimo silang duha ug usa ka kasabotan.
So Abraham brought some sheep and gave them to Abimelech, and the two of them made a (treaty/peace agreement).
28 Busa gilain ni Abraham alang kanila ang pito ka nating baye nga mga karnero gikan sa panon.
Abraham separated seven female lambs from his flock.
29 Si Abimelec miingon kang Abraham, “Unsa may buot ipasabot niining imong nilain nga pito ka nating baye nga mga karnero?”
Abimelech asked Abraham, “What are these seven female lambs that you have separated from the rest of your flock?”
30 Mitubag siya, “Kining pito ka nating baye nga mga karnero nga pagadawaton nimo gikan sa akong kamot, mahimo kining saksi alang kanako, nga gikalot ko gayod kini nga atabay.”
Abraham replied, “I want you truly to accept these female lambs from me [SYN], so that it may be a (public witness/proof) that this well belongs to me because I dug it.”
31 Busa gitawag niya ug Beersheba ang maong dapit, tungod kay didto man silang duha nanumpa,
So Abimelech accepted the animals, and as a result they called that place Beersheba, [which means ‘Friendship Agreement Well’, ] because there the two of them made that agreement.
32 Naghimo sila ug kasabotan didto sa Beersheba, ug unya si Abimelec ug si Phicol, ang kapitan sa iyang mga kasundalohan, mipauli ngadto sa yuta sa mga Filistihanon.
After they made the agreement at Beersheba, Abimelech and his army commander, Phicol, left, and returned to the land of the Philistine people-group.
33 Gitanom ni Abraham ang kahoy nga tamarisko sa Beersheba. Gisimba niya didto si Yahweh, ang walay kataposang Dios.
Abraham planted a (tamarisk tree/kind of tree called esel) there, and he worshiped the eternal God there.
34 Nagpabiling langyaw si Abraham didto sa yuta sa mga Filistihanon sa daghang mga adlaw.
Abraham lived in the land of the Philistine people-group for a long time.
