Genesis 16

1 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, bore him no children. She had a servant, an Egyptian, 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 Sarai said to Abram, “See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her.” Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.

3 Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.

4 He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

Boe ma Abram neu sungguꞌ no Hagar, de nairu. Hagar bubꞌuluꞌ eni mairuꞌ ma, ana koao, de naloe Sarai.

5 Sarai said to Abram, “This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. May the LORD judge 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 But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your maid is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your eyes.” Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.

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 The LORD’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on 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 He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where did you come from? Where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.”

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 LORD’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit 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 The LORD’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”

Afiꞌ mumutau. Dei fo au tao tititi-nonosi ma ramaheta, losa atahori nda reken rala se sa.

11 The LORD’s angel said to her, “Behold, you are with child, and will bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because the LORD has heard 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 He will be like a wild donkey amongst men. His hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. He will live opposed to all of his brothers.”

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 She called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees,” for she said, “Have I even stayed alive after seeing him?”

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 the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is 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 Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

Basa naa ma, Hagar baliꞌ, de bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Abram babꞌae e Ismael.

16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.

Hagar bꞌonggi Ismael te, Abram too falu nulu nee ena.
