Suencuek 16

1 Abram yuu Sarai loh anih ham ca cun pah pawh. Tedae amah taengah salnu, a ming ah Hagar, Egypt nu om.

Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no children: and she had a handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name [was] Hagar.

2 Te dongah Sarai loh Abram la, “Ca cun ham khaw BOEIPA loh kai n'khaih coeng he. Ka salnu taengla kun mai lamtah, anih lamloh ka thoh khaming,” a ti nah.

And Sarai said to Abram, Behold, now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee go in to my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.

3 Te dongah Sarai ol te Abram loh a ngai. Te dongah Kanaan kho ah Abram loh kho a sak te kum kumrha a thok vaengah Abram yuu Sarai loh a sal Egypt nu Hagar te a loh tih a va Abram taengah a yuu la a paek.

And Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar her maid, the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.

4 Te phoeiah Hagar te a kun thil hatah pahoi pumrhih. Tedae a pumrhih te a ming vaengah a mik neh a boeinu te hnaep.

And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

5 Te dongah Sarai loh Abram taengah, “Kai sokah kuthlahnah te nang pum dongah tla saeh. Kai loh na rhang dongah ka salnu kam paek dae a pumrhih te a hmuh vaengah a mik neh n'hnaep he kai laklo neh nang laklo ah BOEIPA loh laitloek mai saeh,” a ti nah.

And Sarai said to Abram, my wrong [be] upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.

6 Tedae Abram loh Sarai la, “Na salnu te namah kut ah om ne. Na mikhmuh ah then ti bangla anih te saii saw,” a ti nah. Te dongah anih te Sarai loh a phaep tih anih khaw Sarai mikhmuh lamloh yong.

But Abram said to Sarai, Behold, thy maid [is] in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.

7 Tedae Shur long taengkah tuiphuet kaep, khosoek tuiphuet tui taengah BOEIPA kah puencawn a hmuh.

And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.

8 Te vaengah, “Sarai kah salnu Hagar me lamkah lae na lo tih melam na caeh eh?” a ti nah. Te dongah Hagar loh, “Ka boeinu Sarai hmuh lamloh ka yong coeng,” a ti nah.

And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.

9 Tedae BOEIPA kah puencawn loh, “Na boeinu taengah mael lamtah anih kut hmuiah yalh mai,” a ti nah.

And the angel of the LORD said to her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.

10 Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh Hagar taengah, “Nang kah tiingan te pungtai rhoela ka pungtai sak vetih a khawk uet ah n'tae lek mahpawh,” a ti nah.

And the angel of the LORD said to her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.

11 Te phoeiah BOEIPA kah puencawn loh anih te, “Nang kah phacipphabaem te BOEIPA loh a yaak coeng dongah nang na vawn tih camoe a om vaengah a ming te Ishmael la na khue ni.

And the angel of the LORD said to her, Behold, thou [art] with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.

12 Tedae anih he hlang kah kohong marhang la om ni. A kut loh hlang tom a veet vetih hlang boeih kah kut loh anih veet cakhaw a manuca boeih kah mikhmuh ah kho a sak ni,” a ti nah.

And he will be a wild man; his hand [will be] against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

13 Te vaengah, “Kai aka hmu kah a hnuk te hela koep ka hmuh,” a ti dongah anih taengah aka cal BOEIPA ming te, “Nang tah Mueihmuh Pathen,” tila a khue.

And she called the name of the LORD that spoke to her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?

14 Te dongah Kadesh laklo neh Bered laklo kah tuito ke Beerlahairoi a sui.

Wherefore the well was called Beer-la-hai-roi; behold, [it is] between Kadesh and Bered.

15 Te phoeiah Hagar loh Abram ham capa a cun pah. Hagar loh a cun a capa te Abram loh a ming Ishmael tila a sui.

And Hagar bore Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bore, Ishmael.

16 Hagar loh Abram ham Ishmael a cun pah vaengah Abram khaw kum sawmrhet kum rhuk lo ca pueng.

And Abram [was] eighty six years old, when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
