Genesis 16
1 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, bore him no children. She had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
Og Sarai, Abrams Hustru, fødte ham ikke Børn; men hun havde en ægyptisk Pige, og hendes Navn var Hagar.
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.
Og Sarai sagde til Abram: Se nu, Herren har tillukket mig, at jeg kan ikke føde; kære, gak til min Pige, maaske jeg kunde bygges ved hende; og Abram lød Sarais Røst.
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.
Saa tog Sarai, Abrams Hustru, Hagar, sin ægyptiske Pige, efter Udløbet af de ti Aar, Abram havde boet i Kanaans Land, og hun gav Abram sin Mand hende til hans Hustru.
4 He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
Og han gik til Hagar, og hun undfik; der hun saa, at hun havde undfanget, da blev hendes Frue ringeagtet af hende.
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.”
Da sagde Sarai til Abram: Den Uret sker mig formedelst dig; jeg har givet min Pige i din Favn, og hun ser, at hun har undfanget, og jeg er ringeagtet af hende; Herren skal dømme imellem mig og imellem dig.
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.
Da sagde Abram til Sarai: Se, din Pige er i din Haand, gør med hende, som dig godt synes; og Sarai ydmygede hende, saa flyede hun fra hendes Aasyn.
7 The LORD’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.
Men Herrens Engel fandt hende ved en Vandkilde i Ørken, ved den Kilde paa Vejen til 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.”
Og han sagde: Hagar, Sarai' Pige, hvorfra kommer du, og hvorhen gaar du? og hun sagde: Jeg flyr fra min Frue Sarai' Aasyn.
9 The LORD’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.”
Og Herrens Engel sagde til hende: Gak tilbage til din Frue, og ydmyg dig under hendes Hænder.
10 The LORD’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”
Og Herrens Engel sagde til hende: Jeg vil gøre dit Afkom meget mangfoldigt, og det skal ikke tælles for Mangfoldighed.
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.
Og Herrens Engel sagde fremdeles til hende: Se, du er frugtsommelig og skal føde en Søn, og du skal kalde hans Navn Ismael, fordi Herren har hørt din Modgang.
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.”
Og han skal blive et vildt Menneske, hans Haand skal være imod hver, og hvers Haand imod ham, og han skal bo Østen for alle sine Brødre.
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?”
Og hun kaldte Herrens Navn, som talede med hende: „Du mit Syns Gud‟; thi hun sagde: Mon jeg her ser efter mit Syn?
14 Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
Derfor kaldte man den Kilde: Beer Lakai Roi; se, den er imellem Kades og Bered.
15 Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
Og Hagar fødte Abram en Søn, og Abram kaldte sin Søns Navn, som Hagar fødte, Ismael.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
Og Abram var seks Aar og firsindstyve Aar gammel, der Hagar fødte Abram Ismael.
