1 Mojžišova 16

1 Sarai pak manželka Abramova jemu nerodila; a měla děvku Egyptskou, jménem Agar.

Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had given him no children; and she had a servant, a woman of Egypt whose name was Hagar.

2 I řekla Sarai Abramovi: Aj, nyní Hospodin zavřel život můj, abych nerodila; vejdi, prosím, k děvce mé, zda bych aspoň z ní mohla míti syny. I povolil Abram řeči Sarai.

And Sarai said to Abram, See, the Lord has not let me have children; go in to my servant, for I may get a family through her. And Abram did as Sarai said.

3 Tedy vzavši Sarai manželka Abramova Agar Egyptskou děvku svou, po desíti letech, jakž bydliti počal Abram v zemi Kananejské, dala ji Abramovi muži svému za ženu.

So after Abram had been living for ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian servant, and gave her to Abram for his wife.

4 I všel k Agar, kterážto počala. Viduci pak ona, že počala, zlehčila sobě paní svou.

And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.

5 I řekla Sarai Abramovi: Křivdou mou tys vinen; já jsem dala děvku svou v lůno tvé, kterážto viduci, že počala, zlehčila mne sobě. Sudiž Hospodin mezi mnou a mezi tebou.

And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me.

6 I řekl Abram k Sarai: Aj, děvka tvá v moci tvé; učiň s ní, cožť se za dobré vidí. Tedy trápila ji Sarai, a ona utekla od ní.

And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her.

7 Našel ji pak anděl Hospodinův u studnice vody na poušti, u studnice té, kteráž jest při cestě Sur.

And an angel of the Lord came to her by a fountain of water in the waste land, by the fountain on the way to Shur.

8 A řekl: Agar, děvko Sarai, odkud jdeš, a kam se béřeš? I řekla: Od tváři Sarai paní své já utíkám.

And he said, Hagar, Sarai's servant, where have you come from and where are you going? And she said, I am running away from Sarai, my master's wife.

9 Tedy řekl jí anděl Hospodinův: Navrať se ku paní své, a pokoř se pod ruku její.

And the angel said to her, Go back, and put yourself under her authority.

10 Opět řekl anděl Hospodinův: Velice rozmnožím símě tvé, aniž bude moci sečteno býti pro množství.

And the angel of the Lord said, Your seed will be greatly increased so that it may not be numbered.

11 Potom také řekl anděl Hospodinův: Aj, ty jsi těhotná, a tudíž porodíš syna, a nazůveš jméno jeho Izmael; nebo uslyšel Hospodin trápení tvé.

And the angel of the Lord said, See, you are with child and will give birth to a son, to whom you will give the name Ishmael, because the ears of the Lord were open to your sorrow.

12 Budeť pak lítý člověk; ruce jeho proti všechněm, a ruce všech proti němu; a před tváří všech bratří svých bydliti bude.

And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.

13 I nazvala Agar jméno Hospodinovo, kterýž mluvil jí: Ty jsi silný Bůh vidění; nebo řekla: Zdaliž teď také nevidím po tom, kterýž mne viděl?

And to the Lord who was talking with her she gave this name, You are a God who is seen; for she said, Have I not even here in the waste land had a vision of God and am still living?

14 Protož nazvala studnici tu studnicí Živého vidoucího mne. Aj, ta jest mezi Kádes a Barad.

So that fountain was named, Fountain of Life and Vision: it is between Kadesh and Bered.

15 Porodila pak Agar Abramovi syna; a nazval Abram jméno syna svého, kteréhož porodila Agar, Izmael.

And Hagar gave birth to a child, the son of Abram, to whom Abram gave the name of Ishmael.

16 Abram pak byl v osmdesáti šesti letech, když mu porodila Agar Izmaele.

Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.
