Genesis 21
1 And the Lord visited Sarrha, as he said, and the Lord did to Sarrha, as he spoke.
Azɔ Yehowa ve Sara nu abe ale si wògblɔ ene, eye Yehowa wɔ eƒe ŋugbedodo dzi na Sara.
2 And she conceived and bore to Abraam a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him.
Sara fɔ fu, eye wòdzi ŋutsuvi na Abraham le eƒe amegãkuku me ɖe ɣeyiɣi si dzi tututu Mawu do ŋugbe nɛ la dzi.
3 And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.
Abraham na ŋkɔ ɖevi si Sara dzi nɛ la be, Isak si gɔmee nye, “Nukoko.”
4 And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.
Esi via, Isak, xɔ ŋkeke enyi la, Abraham tso aʋa nɛ abe ale si Mawu ɖo nɛ ene.
5 And Abraam was a hundred years old when Isaac his son was born to him.
Abraham xɔ ƒe alafa ɖeka esi wodzi Isak nɛ.
6 And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.
Tete Sara gblɔ be, “Mawu do nukokoe nam. Ame sia ame si ase nye nya sia la akpɔ dzidzɔ kplim.
7 And she said, Who shall say to Abraam that Sarrha suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.
Elabena ame kae abui kpɔ be nye Sara hã madzi vi? Ke medzi ŋutsuvi na Abraham le eƒe tsitsime!”
8 And the child grew and was weaned, and Abraam made a great feast the day that his son Isaac was weaned.
Ɖevi la tsi, eye wotso no nɛ. Gbe si gbe wotso no na Isak la, Abraham ɖo kplɔ̃ gã aɖe le dzidzɔɣeyiɣi sia dzi.
9 And Sarrha having seen the son of Agar the Egyptian who was born to Abraam, sporting with Isaac her son,
Ke esi Sara kpɔ Ismael, Abraham kple Egipte nyɔnu, Hagar ƒe vi wònɔ Isak kom la,
10 then she said to Abraam, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not inherit with my son Isaac.
egblɔ na Abraham be, “Na kosivi ma kple via nadzo le afi sia. Via manyi wò dome kple vinye Isak gbeɖegbeɖe o.”
11 But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son.
Nu sia na Abraham tɔtɔ ŋutɔ, elabena via kee nye Ismael hã.
12 But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before thee concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatsoever Sarrha shall say to thee, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
Ke Mawu gblɔ na Abraham be, “Mègatɔtɔ o, eye mègaxa nu le ŋutsuvi la kple srɔ̃wò kosi la ta o. Wɔ nu si Sara ɖo na wò la, elabena Isak me wò dzidzimeviwo adzɔ tso.
13 And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
Ke mana nyɔnu kosivi ƒe vi la hã ƒe dzidzimeviwo nazu dukɔ gã aɖe, elabena viwò eya hã nye.”
14 And Abraam rose up in the morning and took loaves and a skin of water, and gave [them] to Agar, and he put the child on her shoulder, and sent her away, and she having departed wandered in the wilderness near the well of the oath.
Ale Abraham fɔ ŋdi kanya, tsɔ nuɖuɖu kple tsi na Hagar, eye wòdo mɔ eya kple wo vi Ismael. Hagar zɔ mɔ kple via yi gbedzi le Beerseba. Menya afi si tututu wòyina o.
15 And the water failed out of the skin, and she cast the child under a fir tree.
Esi tsia vɔ la, etsɔ ɖevi la mlɔ ati kpɔyɔe aɖe te,
16 And she departed and sat down opposite him at a distance, as it were a bow-shot, for she said, Surely I cannot see the death of my child: and she sat opposite him, and the child cried aloud and wept.
eye wòyi ɖanɔ anyi ɖe adzɔge abe abɔ alafa ɖeka lɔƒo ene tso ɖevi la gbɔ. Egblɔ be, “Nyemedi be manɔ ɖevi la kpɔm wòaku o,” eye wòde asi avifafa me hehehe.
17 And God heard the voice of the child from the place where he was, and an angel of God called Agar out of heaven, and said to her, What is it, Agar? fear not, for God has heard the voice of the child from the place where he is.
Tete Mawu se ɖevi la ƒe avifafa, eye mawudɔla aɖe yɔ Hagar tso dziƒo gblɔ nɛ be, “Hagar, nya kae dzɔ? Mègavɔ̃ o! Mawu se ɖevi la ƒe avifafa le afi si wòmlɔ la.
18 Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in thine hand, for I will make him a great nation.
Yi nàtsɔ ɖevi la, eye nàfa akɔ nɛ, elabena mawɔ eƒe dzidzimeviwo woazu dukɔ gã aɖe.”
19 And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of springing water; and she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the child drink.
Mawu ʋu Hagar ƒe ŋkuwo, eye wòkpɔ vudo aɖe le afi ma. Eku tsi ɖe eƒe tsigolo me, eye wòna ɖe ɖevi la wòno.
20 And God was with the child, and he grew and dwelt in the wilderness, and became an archer.
Mawu nɔ kple ɖevi la, eye wòtsi. Enɔ gbedzi, eye wòzu aŋutrɔdala.
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness, and his mother took him a wife out of Pharan of Egypt.
Esi wònɔ Paran Gbegbe la, dadaa ɖe srɔ̃ nɛ tso Egipte.
22 And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, to Abraam, saying, God is with thee in all things, whatsoever thou mayest do.
Le ɣeyiɣi sia me la, Fia Abimelek kple eƒe aʋafia Pixol va Abraham gbɔ gblɔ nɛ be, “Eme kɔ ƒãa be Mawu li kpli wò le nu sia nu si nèwɔna la me.
23 Now therefore swear to me by God that thou wilt not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with thee thou shalt deal with me, and with the land in which thou hast sojourned.
Ka atam nam le Mawu ŋkume be yemaba nye ŋutɔ alo vinye ŋutsu alo nye tɔgbuiyɔvi o, ke boŋ be yeanɔ anyi kple nye dukɔ le nɔvilɔlɔ̃ me abe ale si mele ɖe ŋuwò ene.”
24 And Abraam said, I will swear.
Abraham ɖo eŋu be, “Enyo, meka atam sia!”
25 And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
Abraham na nutsotso fia Abimelek tso ale si fia la ƒe subɔlawo xɔ vudo aɖe le eƒe subɔlawo si sesẽtɔe la ŋuti.
26 And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to thee, neither didst thou tell it me, neither heard I it but only to-day.
Fia Abimelek ɖi vo, eye wògblɔ be, “Esiae nye zi gbãtɔ si mese nya aɖe tso nu sia ŋu, eye nyemenya ame si wɔ nu sia hã o. Nu ka ta mègblɔe nam kpɔ o?”
27 And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
Abraham tsɔ alẽwo kple nyiwo na Fia Abimelek abe vɔsa ene hetsɔ ɖo kpe woƒe nubabla la dzi.
28 And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
Abraham ɖe alẽvi adre tso eƒe lãhawo me ɖe aga,
29 And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which thou hast set alone?
eye Abimelek bia Abraham be, “Alẽvi adre siawo nèɖe ɖe aga la gɔme ɖe?”
30 And Abraam said, Thou shalt receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
Abraham ɖo eŋu be, “Esiae nye nye nunana na wò be wòanye kpeɖodzi le amewo ŋkume be nyee ɖe vudo sia.”
31 Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
Ale tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa vudo la be Beerseba si gɔmee nye “Atamvudo,” elabena afi ma woka atam, eye wowɔ woƒe nubabla la le.
32 And they made a covenant at the well of the oath. And there rose up Abimelech, Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army, and they returned to the land of the Phylistines.
Le atamkaka le Beerseba megbe la, Fia Abimelek kple eƒe aʋakplɔla, Pixol trɔ yi aƒe.
33 And Abraam planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
Abraham do ati aɖe ɖe Beerseba eye wòdo gbe ɖa na Yehowa Mawu mavɔ la be wòanye ɖasefo le nubabla sia me.
34 And Abraam sojourned in the land of the Phylistines many days.
Eye Abraham nɔ Filistitɔwo ƒe anyigba dzi ɣeyiɣi didi aɖe.
