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.
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 [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.
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.
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.
Boe ma Abram neu sungguꞌ no Hagar, de nairu. Hagar bubꞌuluꞌ eni mairuꞌ ma, ana koao, de naloe 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!”
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 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 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 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.
Hagar nela losa nembe saraꞌae ma, LAMATUALAIN ate na esa mia sorga, hambu e deka no oe mataꞌ sia dalaꞌ mana nisiꞌ Sur.
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.”
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 The angel said, “Go back to your mistress and be under her authority [MTY]”.
De LAMATUALAIN ate na kokoe nae, “Taꞌo ia! Malole lenaꞌ baliꞌ misiꞌ nyora ma. Ana tao nggo taꞌo bee o, simboꞌ a.
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!”
Afiꞌ mumutau. Dei fo au tao tititi-nonosi ma ramaheta, losa atahori nda reken rala se sa.
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.
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 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].”
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 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 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 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.
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 So Hagar later gave birth to a son for Abram, and she gave to her son the name Ishmael.
Basa naa ma, Hagar baliꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Abram babꞌae e Ismael.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Abram’s son Ishmael.
Hagar bꞌonggi Ismael te, Abram too falu nulu nee ena.
