< Genesis 16 >

1 And Sarai, Abram’s wife, has not borne to him, and she has a handmaid, an Egyptian, and her name [is] Hagar;
Leleꞌ naa, Abram baliꞌ mia Masir, de leo sia Kanaꞌan too sanahulu ena. Sao na Sarai, nda feꞌe ma anaꞌ sa. Te Sarai ma ate inaꞌ mia Masir, naran Hagar. Lao esa ma, Sarai ola-olaꞌ no Abram nae, “Aꞌa! LAMATUALAIN babata mamana ana ngga ena. De malole lenaꞌ, muu sungguꞌ mo ate ngga Hagar, fo ana bꞌonggi fee au.” Abram tungga sao na oꞌola na boe. De Sarai fee Hagar dadꞌi Abram sao muri na.
2 and Sarai says to Abram, “Now behold, YHWH has restrained me from bearing, please go in to my handmaid; perhaps I am built up from her”; and Abram listens to the voice of Sarai.
3 And Sarai, Abram’s wife, takes Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, at the end of the tenth year of Abram’s dwelling in the land of Canaan, and gives her to her husband Abram—to him for a wife,
4 and he goes in to Hagar, and she conceives, and she sees that she has conceived, and her mistress is lightly esteemed in her eyes.
Boe ma Abram neu sungguꞌ no Hagar, de nairu. Hagar bubꞌuluꞌ eni mairuꞌ ma, ana koao, de naloe Sarai.
5 And Sarai says to Abram, “My violence [is] for you; I have given my handmaid into your bosom, and she sees that she has conceived, and I am lightly esteemed in her eyes; YHWH judges between me and you.”
Boe ma Sarai olaꞌ no Abram nae, “Au mana fee ate naa fo dadꞌi sao muri ma. Te ana bubꞌuluꞌ eni mairuꞌ, ma naloe-nadꞌae au. Ia, ho sala ma! Hela fo LAMATUALAIN naꞌetuꞌ hita ruꞌa nggita dedꞌea na. Dei fo ho bubꞌuluꞌ!”
6 And Abram says to Sarai, “Behold, your handmaid [is] in your hand, do to her that which is good in your eyes”; and Sarai afflicted her, and she flees from her presence.
Abram nataa nae, “Taꞌo ia! Ho ia, sao ulu ngga. Eni, sao muriꞌ a. Dadꞌi muꞌena koasa neu e. Mae tao saa mbali e, siaꞌ a nggo!” Boe ma Sarai tao suka-ranggaꞌ e, losa ana nela.
7 And the Messenger of YHWH finds her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way [to] Shur,
Hagar nela losa nembe saraꞌae ma, LAMATUALAIN ate na esa mia sorga, hambu e deka no oe mataꞌ sia dalaꞌ mana nisiꞌ Sur.
8 and He says, “Hagar, Sarai’s handmaid, from where have you come, and to where do you go?” And she says, “From the presence of Sarai, my mistress, I am fleeing.”
Ana nae, “We! Hagar, Sarai ate na! Taꞌo bee de ho sia ia? Mia bee uma ma mae bee muu?” Nataa nae, “Au lao hela nyora ngga.”
9 And the Messenger of YHWH says to her, “Return to your mistress, and humble yourself under her hands”;
De LAMATUALAIN ate na kokoe nae, “Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ baliꞌ misiꞌ nyora ma. Ana tao nggo taꞌo bee o, simboꞌ a.
10 and the Messenger of YHWH says to her, “Multiplying I multiply your seed, and it is not numbered from multitude”;
Afiꞌ mumutau. Dei fo au tao tititi-nonosi ma ramaheta, losa atahori nda reken rala se sa.
11 and the Messenger of YHWH says to her, “Behold you [are] conceiving, and bearing a son, and have called his name Ishmael, for YHWH has listened to your affliction;
Ho mairuꞌ ena, de nda dooꞌ sa te, bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Musi babꞌae e Ismael (lii na naeꞌ a onaꞌ dedꞌea feaꞌ esa sosoa na ‘Lamatuaꞌ rena’), huu LAMATUALAIN rena haradꞌoi ma.
12 and he is a wild-donkey man, his hand against everyone, and everyone’s hand against him—and before the face of all his brothers he dwells.”
Anaꞌ naa naꞌamoko nema, nasodꞌa naꞌadꞌoodꞌoꞌ no bobꞌonggi nara. Huu ana onaꞌ ndara fui e, nda rena parendaꞌ sa. Ana labꞌan sudꞌi a se. Ma basa atahori labꞌan baliꞌ e.”
13 And she calls the Name of YHWH who is speaking to her, “You [are], O God, my beholder”; for she said, “Even here have I looked behind my beholder?”
Hagar rena nala ma, ana olaꞌ sia rala na nae, “Au ita LAMATUALAIN, mana mete-seꞌu ma nanea au.” De ana noꞌe Lamatualain, no naraꞌ “Lamatualain mana fadꞌuli au.”
14 Therefore has one called the well, “The well of the Living One, my beholder”; behold, between Kadesh and Bered.
Naa de, atahori babꞌae oe mataꞌ naa, naran, Beer Lahai Roi. Sosoa na oi, “Oe mataꞌ mia Mana masodꞌaꞌ, ma Mana mete-seꞌu au.” Oe mataꞌ naa, sia kambo Kades no kambo Beret taladꞌa na. Oe mataꞌ naa feꞌe sia, losa faiꞌ ia.
15 And Hagar bears a son to Abram; and Abram calls the name of his son, whom Hagar has borne, Ishmael;
Basa naa ma, Hagar baliꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Abram babꞌae e Ismael.
16 and Abram [is] a son of eighty-six years in Hagar’s bearing Ishmael to Abram.
Hagar bꞌonggi Ismael te, Abram too falu nulu nee ena.
