Genesis 16
1 Now Abram’s wife Sarai had borne him no children, but she had an Egyptian maidservant named Hagar.
Sarayi, madanm Abram, pa t' janm fè pitit. Sarayi te gen yon sèvant, moun peyi Lejip, yo te rele Aga.
2 So Sarai said to Abram, “Look now, the LORD has prevented me from bearing children. Please go to my maidservant; perhaps I can build a family by her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
Sarayi di Abram konsa. Gade! Seyè a pa kite mwen fè pitit. Al kouche ak sèvant mwen an non. Ou pa janm konnen, li ka fè pitit pou mwen. Abram tonbe dakò ak sa Sarayi te di l' la.
3 So after he had lived in Canaan for ten years, his wife Sarai took her Egyptian maidservant Hagar and gave her to Abram to be his wife.
Se konsa, Sarayi, madanm Abram, pran sèvant li a, Aga ki te moun peyi Lejip, li bay Abram li pou madanm. Lè sa a, Abram te gen tan gen dizan nan peyi Kanaran.
4 And he slept with Hagar, and she conceived. But when Hagar realized that she was pregnant, she began to despise her mistress.
Abram kouche ak Aga. Aga vin ansent. Lè Aga wè li ansent, lògèy vire tèt li, li pa gade Sarayi, metrès li, pou anyen ankò.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “May the wrong done to me be upon you! I delivered my servant into your arms, and ever since she saw that she was pregnant, she has treated me with contempt. May the LORD judge between you and me.”
Lè sa a, Sarayi di Abram. Se fòt ou wi si m'ap sibi tout wont sa a. Se mwen menm ki te ba ou sèvant mwen an pou madanm. Men, depi li wè li ansent lan, li pa gade m' pou anyen ankò. Se Seyè a ki pou jije m' avè ou.
6 “Here,” said Abram, “your servant is in your hands. Do whatever you want with her.” Then Sarai treated Hagar so harshly that she fled from her.
Abram reponn Sarayi, li di l'. Sèvant ou pou ou. Li sou zòd ou. Ou gen dwa fè sa ou vle avè l'. Se konsa, Sarayi pran maltrete Aga sitèlman, Aga blije sove kite kay la pou li.
7 Now the angel of the LORD found Hagar by a spring of water in the desert—the spring along the road to Shur.
Zanj Seyè a kontre Aga bò yon sous dlo nan dezè a sou wout ki mennen nan peyi Chour la.
8 “Hagar, servant of Sarai,” he said, “where have you come from, and where are you going?” “I am running away from my mistress Sarai,” she replied.
Li di l' konsa. Aga, sèvant Sarayi, kote ou soti la a? Kote ou prale? Aga reponn. M'ap kouri pou Sarayi, metrès mwen.
9 So the angel of the LORD told her, “Return to your mistress and submit to her authority.”
Zanj Seyè a di l'. Tounen lakay metrès ou, soumèt ou devan li.
10 Then the angel added, “I will greatly multiply your offspring so that they will be too numerous to count.”
Zanj lan di l' ankò. M'ap ba ou anpil anpil pitit pitit. Moun p'ap ka konte yo.
11 The angel of the LORD proceeded: “Behold, you have conceived and will bear a son. And you shall name him Ishmael, for the LORD has heard your cry of affliction.
Zanj lan di l' ankò. Gade! Ou ansent. Ou pral fè yon ti gason. Wa rele l' Izmayèl, paske Seyè a tande rèl ou nan tray w'ap pase a.
12 He will be a wild donkey of a man, and his hand will be against everyone, and everyone’s hand against him; he will live in hostility toward all his brothers.”
Pitit gason ou lan va tankou yon bourik mawon. L'ap chache tout moun kont. tout moun va chache l' kont. Li p'ap mele ak tout frè l' yo. L'ap viv pou kont li.
13 So Hagar gave this name to the LORD who had spoken to her: “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “Here I have seen the One who sees me!”
Aga di nan kè l'. Ou kwè se vre se mwen ki wè moun ki wè m' lan? Se konsa li bay Seyè a yon non, li rele l': Ou se Bondye ki wè m' lan.
14 Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi. It is located between Kadesh and Bered.
Se poutèt sa, yo rele pi dlo ki ant Kadès ak Barèd la: Pi moun vivan ki wè m' lan.
15 And Hagar bore Abram a son, and Abram gave the name Ishmael to the son she had borne.
Aga fè yon pitit gason pou Abram. Abram rele pitit la Izmayèl.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to him.
Abram te gen katrevensizan lè Aga te fè Izmayèl.
