Genesis 16
1 But Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children, —she had, however, an Egyptian handmaid, whose name was Hagar.
Sarayi, mwasi ya Abrami, abotelaki ye mwana te. Nzokande azalaki na mosali moko ya mwasi, moto ya Ejipito; kombo na ye « Agari. »
2 So then Sarai said unto Abram Behold, I pray thee, Yahweh hath restrained me, from bearing, go in I pray thee unto, my handmaid, peradventure I may be built up from, her, And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
Sarayi alobaki na Abrami: — Yawe apesi ngai mabota te. Kende, sangisa nzoto na mosali na ngai ya mwasi, tango mosusu nakotonga libota na nzela na ye. Abrami ayokaki maloba ya Sarayi.
3 So Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian. her handmaid, at the end of ten years of Abram’s dwelling in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband, to be to him as a wife.
Sima na mibu zomi, wana Abrami avandaki na Kanana, mwasi na ye Sarayi apesaki ye Agari, mosali na ye ya mwasi, moto ya Ejipito, mpo ete azala mwasi na ye.
4 And he went in unto Hagar and she conceived, —and when she saw that she had conceived, lightly esteemed, was her lady, in her eyes.
Abrami asangisaki nzoto na Agari, mpe Agari akomaki na zemi. Tango Agari asosolaki ete akomi na zemi, akomaki kotiola Sarayi, nkolo na ye.
5 Then said Sarai unto Abram: My wrong, is, on thee! I, gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and when she seeth that she hath conceived, then am I lightly esteemed in her eyes Yahweh judge betwixt me and her.
Boye, Sarayi alobaki na Abrami: — Ezali mpo na yo nde ngai nazali komona pasi ya boye; napesaki mosali na ngai ya mwasi na maboko na yo. Mpe sik’oyo lokola amoni ete azali na zemi, akomi kotiola ngai. Tika ete Yawe akata likambo kati na ngai mpe yo.
6 And Abram said unto Sarai, Lo! thy handmaid, is in thy hand, do to her what is good in thine eyes. So Sarai humbled her, and she fled from her face.
Abrami alobaki: — Mosali na yo azali na maboko na yo. Sala epai na ye nyonso oyo omoni malamu. Boye, Sarayi akomaki konyokola Agari mpe Agari akimaki mosika na ye.
7 And the messenger of Yahweh found her by the fountain of water in the desert, —by the fountain in the way to Shur.
Anjelu ya Yawe amonaki Agari na esobe, pene ya etima oyo ezali na nzela ya Shuri.
8 So he said Hagar! handmaid of Sarai! Whence hast thou come, and whither wouldst thou go? And she said, From the face of Sarai, my lady, am, I, fleeing.
Atunaki ye: — Agari, mosali ya Sarayi, owuti wapi mpe ozali kokende wapi? Azongisaki: — Nazali kokima mosika ya Sarayi, nkolo na ngai.
9 And the messenger of Yahweh said to her, Return unto thy lady, —and humble thyself under her hands.
Anjelu ya Yawe alobaki na ye: — Zonga epai ya nkolo na yo mpe mikitisa liboso na ye.
10 And the messenger of Yahweh said to her, I will, greatly multiply, thy seed—so that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
Anjelu ya Yawe alobaki na ye lisusu: — Nakokomisa bakitani na yo ebele penza mpe moto moko te akokoka kotanga bango.
11 And the messenger of Yahweh said to her, Behold thee! with child, and about bearing a son—and thou shalt call his name Ishmael ["God hearkeneth"] for Yahweh hath hearkened unto thy humiliation.
Alobaki na ye lisusu: — Ozali na zemi mpe okobota mwana mobali, okopesa ye kombo « Isimaeli, » pamba te Yawe ayoki yo, kati na mawa na yo.
12 But, he, will be a wild ass of a man, his hand, against every one, and every one’s hand against him—yet, in presence of all his brethren, shall he have his habitation.
Akozala lokola ane ya zamba. Loboko na ye ekobundisa moto nyonso, mpe loboko ya moto nyonso ekobundisa ye; akovanda esika moko te na bandeko na ye.
13 And she called the name of Yahweh, who had spoken unto her, Thou GOD of vision! For she said. Do I even here, retain my vision after a vision?
Agari amitunaki: « Boni, namoni solo Nzambe oyo azali komona ngai? » Boye, Agari apesaki Yawe oyo asololaki na ye Kombo « Ata-Eli-Royi, » oyo elakisi: Nzambe oyo azali komona ngai.
14 On this account, is the well called, the well of the life of vision, lo! it is between Kadesh and Bered.
Yango wana babengaka libulu ya mayi yango Beri Lakai-Royi. Libulu ya mayi yango ezali na kati-kati ya Kadeshi mpe Beredi.
15 So Hagar bare to Abram a son, —and Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bare, Ishmael.
Boye, Agari abotelaki Abrami mwana mobali mpe Abrami apesaki ye kombo « Isimaeli. »
16 Now, Abram, was eighty—six years old, —when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.
Abrami azalaki na mibu tuku mwambe na motoba ya mbotama tango Agari abotelaki ye Isimaeli.
