< Genesis 16 >

1 And Sara the wife of Abram bore him no children; and she had an Egyptian maid, whose name was Agar.
Saaraan niitiin Abraam ijoollee isaaf hin deenye turte. Garuu isheen garbittii Aggaar jedhamtu tokko qabdi turte; Aggaaris nama biyya Gibxi turte;
2 And Sara said to Abram, Behold, the Lord has restrained me from bearing, go therefore in to my maid, that I may get children for myself through her. And Abram listened to the voice of Sara.
Saaraanis Abraamiin, “Kunoo Waaqayyo ijoollee na dhowwateera. Dhaqiitii garbittii koo wajjin ciisi; tarii ani karaa isheetiin ijoollee nan argadhan taʼaatii” jette. Abraamis waan Sooraan jette fudhate.
3 So Sara the wife of Abram having taken Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Chanaan, gave her to Abram her husband as a wife to him.
Erga Abraam waggaa kudhan Kanaʼaan keessa jiraatee booddee niitiin isaa Saaraan garbittii ishee Aggaar kan nama biyya Gibxi turte sana fuutee akka isheen niitii isaa taatuuf dhirsa isheetiif kennite.
4 And he went in to Agar, and she conceived, and saw that she was with child, and her mistress was dishonored before her.
Abraamis Aggaar wajjin ciise; isheenis ni ulfoofte. Yommuu akka ulfoofte of irratti beektetti giiftii ishee tuffachuu jalqabde.
5 And Sara said to Abram, I am injured by you; I gave my handmaid into your bosom, and when I saw that she was with child, I was dishonored before her. The Lord judge between me and you.
Saaraan immoo Abraamiin, “Miidhaa na mudate kanatti situ gaafatama. Garbittii koo anattu bobaa kee jala siif galche; amma garuu isheen akka ulfoofte of irratti beeknaan na tuffatte. Egaa Waaqayyo sii fi ana gidduutti murtii haa kennu” jette.
6 And Abram said to Sara, Behold your handmaid is in your hands, use her as it may seem good to you. And Sara afflicted her, and she fled from her face.
Abraamis, “Garbittiin kee keessa harkuma kee jirti; waanuma feete ishee godhi” jedheen. Saaraanis akka malee ishee cunqursite; kanaafuu Aggaar fuula ishee duraa sokkite.
7 And an angel of the Lord found her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Sur.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo gammoojjii keessatti, burqaa bishaanii tokko biratti Aggaarin arge; burqaan bishaanii sunis karaa Shuuritti geessu irra ture.
8 And the angel of the Lord said to her, Agar, Sara's maid, whence come you, and wither go you? and she said, I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sara.
Ergamaan sunis, “Yaa Aggaar, garbittii Saaraa, ati eessaa dhufte? Eessa dhaquutti jirta?” jedhe. Isheenis, “Giiftii koo Saaraa baqachuuttin jira” jetteen.
9 And the angel of the Lord said to her, Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.
Kana irratti ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun, “Gara giiftii keetiitti deebiʼi; gad of qabiitii isheef buli” jedheen.
10 And the angel of the Lord said to her, I will surely multiply your seed, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis itti dabalee, “Ani sanyii kee akka malee nan baayʼisa; sababii baayʼina isaatiifis namni tokko iyyuu lakkaaʼuu hin dandaʼu” jedhe.
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 Ismael, for the Lord has listened to your humiliation.
Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun amma illee akkana isheen jedhe; “Kunoo ati ulfoofteerta; ilmas ni deessa. Maqaa isaas Ishmaaʼeel jedhii moggaasi; Waaqayyo dhiphachuu kee dhagaʼeeraatii.
12 He shall be a wild man, his hands against all, and the hands of all against him, and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
Inni nama akka harree diidaa taʼa; harki isaa nama hunda irratti kaʼa; harki nama hundaas isa irratti kaʼa; obboloota isaa hundaanis jibbamaa jiraata.”
13 And she called the name of the Lord God who spoke to her, You are God who see me; for she said, For I have openly seen him that appeared to me.
Isheenis maqaa Waaqayyo isheetti dubbate sanaa, “Elrooʼii” jettee waamte. Isheen, “Ani dhugumaan Isa na argu sana argeera” jetteertiitii.
14 Therefore she called the well, The well of him whom I have openly seen; behold it is between Cades and Barad.
Sababiin boolli bishaanii sun, “Beʼeer Lahaayirooʼii” jedhameefis kanuma. Innis hamma harʼaatti illee Qaadeshii fi Bereed gidduu jira.
15 And Agar bore a son to Abram; and Abram called the name of his son which Agar bore to him, Ismael.
Aggaaris Abraamiif ilma deesse; Abraamis ilma isheen deesse sana Ishmaaʼeel jedhee moggaase.
16 And Abram was eighty-six years old, when Agar bore Ismael to Abram.
Yeroo Aggaar Ishmaaʼeelin isaaf deessetti Abraam nama waggaa saddeettamii jaʼaa ture.
