Genesis 16
1 Up to that time, Abram’s wife Sarai had not given birth to any children for Abram. But she had a female slave from Egypt, whose name was Hagar.
Sarai, mutan kial Abram, el tiana isus tulik nu sel Abram. Tusruktu oasr mutan kulansap lal, mutan fusr Egypt se pangpang Hagar.
2 [So one day] Sarai said to Abram, “Listen to me! Yahweh has not allowed me to become pregnant. So (sleep with/have sex with) [EUP] my slave Hagar. Perhaps she will bear children whom I can consider to be mine.” Abram agreed to do what Sarai said.
Ouinge Sarai el fahk nu sel Abram, “LEUM GOD El tia lela in oasr tulik nutik. Kom ku tia tari ona yurin mutan kulansap luk? Sahp el ac ku in aolyula oswela sie tulik ah.” Abram el insese nu ke ma Sarai el fahk nu sel.
3 So Abram (slept with/had sex with) Hagar, his wife Sarai’s slave from Egypt. This happened ten years after they went to live in Canaan [land]. Sarai gave Hagar to her husband to be his secondary wife.
Ke ma inge Sarai el eisalang Hagar nu sel Abram tuh elan mutan kulansap kial. (Ma se inge sikyak tukun Abram el muta yac singoul in acn Canaan.)
4 He (slept with/had sex with) [EUP] Hagar and she became pregnant. When she realized that she was pregnant, she began to despise her mistress Sarai.
Abram el ona yorol Hagar, ac el pitutuyak. Ke Hagar el etauk lah el pitutu, el inse fulatak ac kwaselak Sarai.
5 Then Sarai said to Abram, “It is your fault! I put my servant into your arms, so that you could sleep with her [EUP]. Now she realizes that she is pregnant, and she despises me. I think Yahweh will punish you for doing this to me!”
Sarai el fahk nu sel Abram, “Kom pa pwanang Hagar el srungayu uh. Nga tuh sifacna eisalot nu sum, tuh tukunna el konauk lah el pitutu ah, el nuna kwaseyu na. Lela LEUM GOD Elan aksuwosye lah su kac pwaye se uh — kom ku nga!”
6 So Abram said to Sarai, “[You listen to me]! She is your servant, so act towards her in the way you consider best.” Then Sarai started to mistreat her, so she ran away from Sarai.
Abram el topuk ac fahk, “Lungse na lom. Kom na pa nununkal an. Oru na ma kom lungse oru nu sel an.” Ouinge Sarai el oru arulana upa nu sel Hagar, pwanang Hagar el kaingla.
7 An angel of Yahweh found her as she was near a spring of water in the desert. It was the spring that was alongside the road to Shur.
Lipufan lun LEUM GOD el sonol Hagar sisken sie unon in kof yen mwesis inkanek nu Shur
8 He said to her, “Hagar, slave of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She replied, “I have run away from Sarai, my mistress.”
ac fahk, “Hagar, mutan kulansap lal Sarai, kom tuku oya me, ac kom ac som nu ya?” Ac Hagar el fahk, “Nga kaingla liki mutan kacto luk.”
9 The angel said, “Go back to your mistress and be under her authority [MTY]”.
Na lipufan sac fahk, “Folokla nu yorol ac kulansap na nu sel.”
10 The angel also said to her, “I will enable you to bear so many descendants that no one will be able to count them!”
Na lipufan sac sifilpa fahk, “Nga ac fah arulana akpusye fwilin tulik nutum, ac wangin sie mwet ac ku in oakalosla.
11 The angel also said to her, “[Listen to this!] You are pregnant. You will give birth to a son. You must name him Ishmael, [which means ‘God hears]’, because Yahweh has heard you crying because you feel so miserable.
Kom ac fah oswela wen se, ac kom fah sang inel Ishmael, mweyen LEUM GOD El lipsrala pusren tung ac asor lom.
12 But your son will be as uncontrollable as a wild donkey [MET]. He will oppose everyone, and everyone will oppose him [MTY]. He will live far away from his relatives [SYN].”
Tusruktu wen nutum el ac fah moul oana donkey lemnak soko. El ac fah lain mwet nukewa, ac mwet nukewa ac fah lainul. El ac fah muta srengla liki sou lal nukewa.
13 Then Hagar realized that the angel was really Yahweh, so she said to herself, “(It is difficult to believe that I have really seen the back of Yahweh, the one who sees me!/Have I really seen the back of Yahweh, the one who sees me?)” [RHQ] So she called him ‘Yahweh, the one who sees me’.
Hagar el siyuk sel sifacna, “Ku pwayena lah ngan liye God ac moul na in srumun kac?” Ouinge el pangon LEUM GOD su sramsram nu sel “Sie God Su Liye.”
14 That is why people call the well there ‘Beer-Lahai-Roi’, [which means, ‘The well of the living one who sees us’!] It is still there, between Kadesh and Bered.
Pa inge sripa se oru mwet uh pangon lufin kof se inmasrlon Kadesh ac Bered, “Lufin Kof Lun El Su Moul Ac Liyeyu.”
15 So Hagar later gave birth to a son for Abram, and she gave to her son the name Ishmael.
Hagar el oswela wen se nu sel Abram, ac Abram el sang inel Ishmael.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Abram’s son Ishmael.
Abram el yac oalngoul onkosr ke pacl sac.
