1 Abram e yu Sarai ni ahni hanelah ca khe pouh hoeh. Hatei ahni ni vah a sannu Izip tami buet touh a tawn. A min teh Hagar.
Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no children, but she had an Egyptian servant whose name was Hagar.

Sarai said to Abram, "Look now, God has prevented me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her." Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
3 Hottelah Abram teh Kanaan ram kum 10 touh ao hnukkhu Abram e yu Sarai ni a sannu Izip tami Hagar hah a hrawi teh a vâ Abram koe a yu hanelah a poe.
So Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.
4 Ahni ni Hagar a ikhai teh camo a vawn. Camo vawn tie a kâpanue torei teh a bawinu hah a hnephnap.
He slept with Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

Sarai said to Abram, "This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. God judge between me and you."
6 Hatei Abram ni Sarai koevah, na sannu teh na kut dawk doeh ao. Sarai ni puenghoi a yue teh ahni koehoi oun a yawng.
But Abram said to Sarai, "Look, your servant is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your sight." Sarai dealt harshly with her, so she fled from her presence.
7 BAWIPA e kalvantami ni Shur kho lah ceinae kahrawngum lam teng tuiphuek teng vah a hmu.
And the angel of God found her by a spring of water in the desert, by the spring on the way to Shur.
8 Sarai e sannu Hagar, nâ lahoi maw na tho teh nâ lah maw na cei han telah a pacei. Hat torei teh ahni ni ka bawinu Sarai koehoi ka yawng e doeh atipouh.
And he said, "Hagar, servant of Sarai, where did you come from, and where are you going?" And she said, "I am running away from the presence of my mistress Sarai."
9 BAWIPA e kalvantaminaw, na bawinu koe bout ban nateh a kut rahim awm pouh loe telah atipouh.
The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to her authority."
10 BAWIPA e kalvantami ni, na canaw moikapap ka pungdaw sak vaiteh na touklek thai mahoeh telah atipouh.
The angel of the LORD said to her, "I will greatly multiply your descendants, so that they will be too numerous to count."
11 Hahoi, BAWIPA e kalvantami ni thaihaw, camo na vawn vaiteh ca tongpa na khe han, Ishmael telah min na phung han. Bangkongtetpawiteh nange na reithainae BAWIPA ni a thai toe.
Then the angel of God said to her, "Look, you are with child, and will bear a son. You are to name him Ishmael, because God has heard your affliction.
12 Hatei na capa teh la ka matheng e lah ao han. Tami pueng a taran vaiteh tami pueng ni hai a taran van han. A hmaunawngha pueng hai a taran vaiteh kho a sak han telah atipouh.
He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him. And he will live away from all of his brothers."

And she called his name, the one who spoke to her, "You are El Roi," for she said, "Here I have seen the one who sees me."
14 Hatdawkvah, tuikhu teh Beerlahairoi telah a phung. Hote teh Kadesh hoi Bered kho rahak vah ao.
Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Look, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
