Suencuek 21
1 BOEIPA loh a ti bangla Sarah te a hip tih a thui bangla Sarah ham BOEIPA loh a saii.
Now, Yahweh, visited Sarah, as he had said, —And Yahweh did for Sarah as he had spoken.
2 Pathen loh anih a uen bangla Sarah te vawn tih khoning vaengah tah a patong soi ah Abraham ham capa a cun pah.
So, Sarah, conceived and bare, to Abraham, a son, for his old age, at the set time, of which God had spoken with him.
3 Te phoeiah anih ham Sarah loh a sak pah amah ca sak, a capa ming te Abraham loh Isaak sui.
And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom, Sarah, bare to him, Isaac.
4 Pathen kah a uen vanbangla Abraham loh a capa Isaak te hnin rhet a lo ca vaengah yahhmui a rhet pah.
And Abraham circumcised Isaac his son, when eight days old, —as God commanded him.
5 Te dongah Abraham kum ya a lo ca vaengah a capa Isaak te amah taengah a cun.
Now Abraham was a hundred years old, —when Isaac his son was born to him.
6 Tedae Sarah loh, “Pathen loh kai taengah nueihcil han saii he aka ya boeih loh kai taengah nuei van ni,” a ti.
And Sarah said, A laughing, hath God made for me, —Everyone that heareth will laugh with me.
7 Te phoeiah, “Sarah loh camoe a khut ni tila Abraham taengah unim aka thui tih a patong daengah capa ka cun he,” a ti.
And she said—Who would have announced to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled children? yet have I borne a son, for his old age!
8 Camoe te khaw puel tih suk a kan coeng dongah Abraham loh Isaak kah sukkan khohnin ah buhkoknah muep a saii.
And the child grew, and was weaned, —and Abraham made a great banquet, on the day of the weaning of Isaac.
9 Tedae Abraham ham Egypt nu Hagar loh a cun a capa loh a nueih thil te Sarah loh a hmuh.
And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian woman whom she had borne to Abraham laughing!
10 Te dongah Abraham taengah, “Salnu kah capa he ka capa Isaak taengah rho a pang thai pawt dongah salnu neh a capa te haek laeh,” a ti nah.
So she said to Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, —for the son of this bondwoman must not inherit with my son with Isaac.
11 Tedae a capa kongmai dongah olka he, Abraham mik ah bahoeng lolh.
And the word was very grievous in the eyes of Abraham, —on account of his son.
12 Tedae Pathen loh Abraham taengah, “Camoe ham neh na salnu ham te na mik dongah lolh sak boeh. Isaak rhang neh nang ham tiingan thuep ham coeng dongah Sarah loh nang taengah a thui bangla, anih ol boeih hnatangnah.
And God said unto Abraham Let it not be grievous in thine eyes concerning the boy and concerning thy bondwoman, In all that Sarah may say unto thee, hearken to her voice, —For in Isaac, shall there be called to thee—a seed.
13 Tedae salnu capa te khaw na tiingan coeng dongah anih te namtom la ka khueh ni,” a ti nah.
Yet even the son of the bondwoman, will I appoint to become, a nation, because thy seed, he is.
14 Te dongah Abraham loh mincang ah thoo tih buh neh tuitang tui te a loh. Te phoeiah Hagar a paek tih a laengpang ah a vah. Te phoeiah camoe neh a tueih tih a caeh vaengah Beersheba khosoek ah kho a hmang.
So Abraham rose up early in the morning—and took bread and a skin of water and gave unto hagar, —putting them on her shoulder and the child, and sent her forth, —so she went her way and wandered, in the desert of Beer-sheba.
15 Tedae tuitang khuikah tui te a khawk vaengah camoe te tangpuem pakhat hmuiah sut a voeih.
And the water out of the skin was spent, —so she cast the child under one of the shrubs;
16 Camoe kah dueknah te ka hmuh boel mai eh a ti dongah Cet tih li thikat kah tluk a lakhla la amah te ngol. Tedae a yoei la koep ngol tih a ol a huel doeah rhap.
and went and sat her down over against him at a distance like as of such as draw the bow, for she said Let me not look upon the death of the child, —So she sat down over against him, and the boy lifted up his voice, and wept
17 Te vaengah Pathen loh camoe kah a rhah ol te a yaak. Te dongah Pathen kah puencawn loh Hagar te vaan lamkah a khue tih, “Hagar, nang taengkah te balae? Ke lamkah camoe ol te Pathen loh a yaak coeng dongah rhih boeh.
And God heard the voice of the boy, and a messenger of God called unto Hagar out of the heavens; and said to her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Do not fear, for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the boy where he is.
18 Thoo, camoe te poeh lamtah anih te namah kut neh talong lah. Anih pilnu la ka khueh ni,” a ti nah.
Arise lift up the boy, and hold him up with thy hand, —for, a great nation, will I make him.
19 Te vaengah Pathen loh a mik a tueng sak tih tuito tui a hmuh. Te dongah cet tih tuitang dongah tui a than phoeiah camoe te a tul.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water, —and went and filled the skin with water, and gave drink unto the boy
20 Tedae camoe taengah Pathen a om dongah pantai tih khosoek ah kho a sak hatah liva aka kap la coeng.
And it came to pass that God was with the boy, and he grew, —and dwelt in the desert, and he became as he grew up, an archer,
21 Te phoeiah Paran khosoek ah kho a sak vaengah a yuu te a manu loh Egypt kho lamkah a loh pah.
And he dwelt in the desert of Paran, —and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
22 Te vaengkah tue ah aka om olka te tah Abimelek neh amah kah caempuei mangpa Phikhol loh Abraham te, “Nang kah na saii boeih dongah nang taengah Pathen om taktak.
And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech, with Phicol chieftain of his host, spake unto Abraham, saying, —God, is with thee in all that, thou art doing.
23 Te dongah na bakuep nah khohmuen ah nang ham sitlohnah ka saii vanbangla kai taengah na saii van tih, kamah neh ka ca taengah, ka cadil taengah khaw rhilat pawt ham Pathen hmaiah kai hamla toemngam laeh,” a ti nah.
Now, therefore, swear to me by God, here, that thou wilt not deal falsely by me, nor by mine offspring, nor by my descendants, —according to the lovingkindness wherewith I have dealt with thee, shalt thou deal with me, and with the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
24 Te dongah Abraham loh, “Kamah loh ka toemngam coeng,” a ti.
And Abraham said, I, will swear.
25 Tedae Abimelek kah sal rhoek loh tuito tui a rhawth pa kongmai dongah Abimelek te Abraham loh a tluung.
But Abraham reproved Abimelech, —on account of the well of water, which the servants of Abimelech had seized.
26 Tedae Abimelek loh, “Hekah dumlai he u loh a saii khaw ka ming pawt tih nang long khaw kai taengah na puen pawt dongah kai khaw tihnin due ka yaak moenih,” a ti nah.
And Abimelech said, I know not, who hath done this thing, —nor hast even thou, ever told me, nor have even I, ever heard, save to-day.
27 Te dongah Abraham loh boiva neh saelhung a khuen tih Abimelek te a paek phoeiah amamih rhoi kah moi a boh rhoi.
And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave to Abimelech, —and they two solemnised a covenant
28 Te phoeiah Abraham loh boiva khuikah tumanu pumrhih te a pai sak.
So then Abraham set seven young sheep of the flock by them-selves,
29 Te dongah Abimelek loh Abraham te, “Hekah tumanu pumrhih he metlae amamih bueng na hoep,” a ti nah.
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What, then mean these seven young sheep here, which thou hast set by themselves?
30 Tedae Abraham loh, “Ka kut lamkah tumanu pumrhih he na doe coeng atah tahae kah tuito ka too dongah kai ham laipai la rhep na om ni,” a ti nah.
And he said, The seven young sheep, shalt thou take at my hand, —that they may serve as my witness, that I digged this well.
31 Tekah hmuen te amih rhoi loh a toemngam rhoi dongah Beersheba tila a sui.
On this account, was the name of that place called Beer-sheba ["oath well"], —because there, had they two sworn.
32 Te dongah Beersheba ah moi a boh uh phoeiah Abimelek neh amah kah caempuei mangpa Phikhol khaw thoo uh tih Philisti kho la voei uh.
And when they had solemnised a covenant in Beer-sheba, —then arose Abimelech, with Phicol chief of his host, and returned unto the land of the Philistines.
33 Beersheba ah kolanhlaeng a phung tih kumhal Pathen BOEIPA ming te pahoi a khue.
Then planted he a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, —and called there on the name of Yahweh the age-abiding GOD.
34 Te dongah Abraham he Philisti kho ah kum a yet bakuep.
So Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
