< Genesis 21 >
1 And the Lord visited Sarrha, as he said, and the Lord did to Sarrha, as he spoke.
Yawe atalisaki bolamu na Ye epai ya Sara ndenge kaka alobaki mpe akokisaki elaka oyo apesaki ye.
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 azwaki zemi mpe abotelaki Abrayami mwana na kimobange na ye kaka na tango oyo Nzambe alakaki ye.
3 And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.
Abrayami apesaki na mwana oyo Sara abotelaki ye kombo « Izaki. »
4 And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.
Abrayami akatisaki Izaki ngenga tango akokisaki mikolo mwambe ya mbotama, ndenge Nzambe atindaki ye.
5 And Abraam was a hundred years old when Isaac his son was born to him.
Abrayami azalaki na mibu nkama moko ya mbotama tango mwana na ye, Izaki, abotamaki.
6 And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.
Sara alobaki: « Nzambe apesi ngai libaku ya koseka; mpe moto nyonso oyo akoyoka sango oyo akoseka elongo na ngai. »
7 And she said, Who shall say to Abraam that Sarrha suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.
Abakisaki: « Nani akokaki koloba na Abrayami ete Sara akomelisa bana mabele? Pamba te naboteli ye mwana na kimobange na ye. »
8 And the child grew and was weaned, and Abraam made a great feast the day that his son Isaac was weaned.
Mwana akolaki mpe Sara akataki kopesa ye mabele. Mokolo bakataki kopesa Izaki mabele, Abrayami asalisaki feti monene.
9 And Sarrha having seen the son of Agar the Egyptian who was born to Abraam, sporting with Isaac her son,
Kasi tango Sara amonaki ete Isimaeli, mwana oyo Agari, moto ya Ejipito, abotelaki Abrayami, azali koseka;
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.
ayebisaki Abrayami: « Bengana mwasi mowumbu oyo elongo na mwana na ye ya mobali, pamba te mwana ya mwasi mowumbu oyo, akoki te kokabola libula elongo na Izaki, mwana na ngai ya mobali. »
11 But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son.
Tango Abrayami ayokaki bongo, esalaki ye pasi makasi na motema mpo na mwana na ye.
12 But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before you concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatever Sarrha shall say to you, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall your seed be called.
Kasi Nzambe ayebisaki Abrayami: « Tika koyoka pasi na motema mpo na mwana na yo ya mobali mpe mwasi mowumbu na yo. Yoka nyonso oyo Sara azali koyebisa yo, pamba te ezali na nzela ya Izaki nde okozwa bakitani.
13 And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is your seed.
Nakokomisa mpe mwana mobali ya mwasi mowumbu na yo ekolo, pamba te ye mpe azali makila na yo. »
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.
Na tongo makasi ya mokolo oyo elandaki, Abrayami azwaki lipa mpe mbeki ya mayi; apesaki yango na Agari. Atiaki yango likolo ya lipeka na ye, apesaki ye mwana mpe abenganaki ye. Agari akendeki mpe atambolaki bipai na bipai na esobe ya Beri-Sheba.
15 And the water failed out of the skin, and she cast the child under a fir tree.
Tango mayi oyo ezalaki na mbeki esilaki, Agari asundolaki mwana na se ya nzete moko ya moke.
16 And she departed and sat down opposite him at a distance, as it were a bow-shot, for she said, Surely I can’t see the death of my child: and she sat opposite him, and the child cried aloud and wept.
Akendeki kovanda na monkama ya bametele, pamba te alobaki: « Nalingi te komona kufa ya mwana na ngai. » Lokola avandaki mosika ya mwana, atombolaki mongongo mpe alelaki.
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.
Nzambe ayokaki mongongo ya mwana, mpe Anjelu na Nzambe abengaki Agari wuta na likolo. Ayebisaki ye: « Agari, likambo nini? Kobanga te, pamba te Nzambe ayoki mongongo ya mwana wuta na esika oyo otikaki ye.
18 Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in your hand, for I will make him a great nation.
Telema, tombola mwana mpe zwa ye na loboko na yo, pamba te nakokomisa ye ekolo monene. »
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.
Nzambe afungolaki ye miso, mpe amonaki libulu ya mayi. Akendeki kotondisa mbeki mpe amelisaki mwana.
20 And God was with the child, and he grew and lived in the wilderness, and became an archer.
Nzambe azalaki elongo na mwana. Akolaki, avandaki kati na esobe mpe akomaki mobomi nyama na tolotolo.
21 And he lived in the wilderness, and his mother took him a wife out of Pharan of Egypt.
Wana azalaki kovanda kati na esobe ya Parani, mama na ye azwelaki ye mwasi ya mokili ya Ejipito.
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 you in all things, whatever you may do.
Kaka na tango yango, Abimeleki mpe Pikoli, mokonzi ya mampinga na ye, bakendeki kokutana na Abrayami; mpe Abimeleki alobaki na Abrayami: — Nzambe azali kolongisa yo na makambo nyonso oyo ozali kosala.
23 Now therefore swear to me by God that you will not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with you you shall deal with me, and with the land in which you have sojourned.
Bongo sik’oyo, lapa ndayi awa na Kombo ya Nzambe ete okokosa ngai te, bana na ngai te, mpe bakoko na ngai te; kasi okosalela ngai bolamu elongo na mboka oyo epai wapi ozali kovanda lokola mopaya, ndenge ngai nasaleli yo.
24 And Abraam said, I will swear.
Abrayami azongisaki: — Nalapi ndayi!
25 And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
Bongo Abrayami alobelaki Abimeleki na tina na libulu ya mayi oyo basali ya Abimeleki babotolaki na makasi.
26 And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to you, neither did you tell it me, neither heard I it but only today.
Abimeleki azongisaki: — Nayebi te nani asalaki bongo. Oyebisaki ngai likambo moko te na tina na yango, mpe nayoki yango kaka lelo.
27 And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
Abrayami azwaki bameme, bantaba, bangombe, mpe apesaki yango na Abimeleki; bongo bango mibale basalaki boyokani.
28 And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
Abrayami atiaki pembeni bana meme sambo oyo azwaki kati na etonga.
29 And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which you have set alone?
Abimeleki atunaki Abrayami: — Bana meme sambo oyo otie pembeni elakisi nini?
30 And Abraam said, You shall receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
Azongisaki: — Ndima bana meme sambo oyo ewuti na maboko na ngai lokola litatoli ete ngai nde natimolaki libulu yango.
31 Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
Yango wana babengaki esika yango Beri-Sheba, pamba te na esika yango nde bango mibale balapaki ndayi.
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.
Sima na bango kosala boyokani kuna na Beri-Sheba, Abimeleki mpe Pikoli, mokonzi ya mampinga na ye, bazongaki na mokili ya Filisitia.
33 And Abraam planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
Abrayami alonaki nzete ya tamarisi na Beri-Sheba mpe abelelaki Yawe, Nzambe ya bileko na bileko.
34 And Abraam sojourned in the land of the Phylistines many days.
Abrayami avandaki lisusu tango molayi na mokili ya Filisitia.
