Genesis 16

1 Now Sarai Abram’s wife bore him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.

Ngayon si Sarai, asawa ni Abram, ay hindi nagkaanak sa kaniya, pero mayroon siyang babaeng lingkod, taga-Ehipto, na ang pangalan ay Agar.

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

Kaya sinabi ni Sarai kay Abram, “Tingnan mo, pinanatili ako ni Yahweh na walang anak. Sipingan mo ang aking lingkod. Baka sakaling magkaroon ako ng anak sa pamamagitan niya.” Nakinig si Abram sa sinabi ni Sarai.

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

Iyon ay matapos na si Abram ay nanirahan ng sampung taon sa lupain ng Canaan nang ibinigay ni Sarai, asawa ni Abram, si Agar, na kaniyang lingkod na taga-Ehipto, sa kaniyang asawa bilang asawa.

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

Kaya nagkaroon siya ng kaugnayan kay Agar, at nabuntis siya. At nang makita niyang nabuntis siya, tiningnan niya ng may pag-aalipusta ang kaniyang among babae.

5 And Sarai said to Abram, My wrong be on you: I have given my maid into your bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and you.

Pagkatapos sinabi ni Sarai kay Abram, “Ang kamaliang ito sa akin ay dahil sa iyo. Ibinigay ko ang aking babaeng lingkod sa iyong mga bisig, at nang makita niyang siya ay nabuntis, hinamak niya ako sa kaniyang paningin. Hayaan mong si Yahweh ang humatol sa pagitan natin.

6 But Abram said to Sarai, Behold, your maid is in your hand; do to her as it pleases you. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.

Pero sinabi ni Abram kay Sarai, “Tingnan mo, nasa iyong kapangyarihan ang iyong babaeng lingkod, gawin mo sa kaniya ang iniisip mong pinakamabuti.” Kaya pinagmalupitan siya ni Sarai, at siya ay tumakas mula sa kaniya.

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

Ang anghel ni Yahweh ay nakita siya sa isang bukal ng tubig sa ilang, ang bukal na matatagpuan sa daan patungong Shur.

8 And he said, Hagar, Sarai’s maid, from where came you? and where will you go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.

Sinabi niya, “Agar, alipin ni Sarai, saan ka nanggaling at saan ka pupunta?” Sinabi niya, “Tumakas ako mula sa aking among babae na si Sarai”.

9 And the angel of the LORD said to her, Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.

Sinabi sa kaniya ng anghel ni Yahweh, “Bumalik ka sa iyong among babae, at sumailalim ka sa kaniyang kapangyarihan”.

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

Pagkatapos sinabi ng anghel ni Yahweh sa kaniya, “Labis kong pararamihin ang iyong mga kaapu-apuhan para maging napakarami nila para bilangin.

11 And the angel of the LORD said to her, Behold, you are with child and shall bear a son, and shall call his name Ishmael; because the LORD has heard your affliction.

Sinabi rin sa kaniya ng anghel ni Yahweh, “Tingnan mo, ikaw ay buntis, at manganganak ka ng isang anak na lalaki, at pangangalanan mo siyang Ismael, dahil narinig ni Yahweh ang iyong paghihirap”.

12 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 brothers.

Siya ay magiging isang lalaking mistulang mabangis na asno. Magiging kalaban siya ng bawat tao at bawat tao ay magiging kalaban niya at mamumuhay siyang hiwalay sa kaniyang mga kapatid.

13 And she called the name of the LORD that spoke to her, You God see me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that sees me?

Pagkatapos binigay niya ang pangalang ito kay Yahweh na nangusap sa kaniya, “Ikaw ang Diyos na nakakakita sa akin,” dahil sinabi niya, “Talaga bang patuloy akong makakakita, kahit na pagkatapos niya akong nakita?”

14 Why the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

Dahil dito tinawag na Beerlahairoi ang balon; masdan, naroon ito sa pagitan ng Kades at Bered.

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

Nanganak si Agar ng anak na lalaki ni Abram, at pinangalanan ni Abram ang kaniyang anak, na isinilang ni Agar, na Ismael.

16 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.

Si Abram ay walumpu't-anim na taong gulang nang isilang ni Agar si Ismael para kay Abram.
