Genesis 16
1 Therfor Sarai, wijf of Abram, hadde not gendrid fre children; but sche hadde a seruauntesse of Egipt, Agar bi name, and seide to hir hosebonde, Lo!
Basi Sarai, mkewe Abramu, alikuwa hajamzalia watoto. Lakini alikuwa na mtumishi wa kike Mmisri jina lake Hagari,
2 the Lord hath closid me, that Y schulde not bere child; entre thou to my seruauntesse, if in hap Y schal take children, nameli of hir. And whanne he assentide to hir preiynge, sche took Agar Egipcian,
hivyo Sarai akamwambia Abramu, “Bwana amenizuilia kupata watoto. Nenda, ukakutane kimwili na mtumishi wangu wa kike, huenda nitaweza kupata watoto kupitia kwake.” Abramu akakubaliana na lile Sarai alilosema.
3 hir seruauntesse, after ten yeer aftir that thei begunne to enhabite in the lond of Chanaan, and sche yaf Agar wiif to hir hosebonde.
Hivyo baada ya Abramu kuishi katika nchi ya Kanaani miaka kumi, Sarai akamchukua mtumishi wake wa kike wa Kimisri, Hagari na kumpa mumewe awe mke wake.
4 And Abram entride to Agar; and Agar seiy that sche hadde conseyued, and sche dispiside hir ladi.
Akakutana kimwili na Hagari, naye akapata mimba. Hagari alipojua kuwa ana mimba, alianza kumdharau Sarai.
5 And Saray seide to Abram, Thou doist wickidli ayens me; I yaf my seruauntesse in to thi bosum, which seeth, that sche conseyuede, and dispisith me; the Lord deme betwixe me and thee.
Ndipo Sarai akamwambia Abramu, “Unawajibika na manyanyaso ninayoyapata. Nilimweka mtumishi wangu mikononi mwako, sasa kwa vile anajua kwamba ana mimba, ananidharau mimi. Bwana na aamue kati yako na mimi.”
6 And Abram answerde and seide to hir, Lo! thi seruauntesse is in thin hond; vse thou hir as `it likith. Therfor for Sarai turmentide hir, sche fledde awei.
Abramu akamwambia, “Mtumishi wako yuko mikononi mwako. Mtendee lolote unalofikiri ni bora zaidi.” Ndipo Sarai akamtesa Hagari, hivyo akamtoroka.
7 And whanne the aungel of the Lord hadde founde hir bisidis a welle of watir in wildernesse, which welle is in the weie of Sur in deseert,
Malaika wa Bwana akamkuta Hagari karibu na chemchemi huko jangwani; ilikuwa chemchemi ile iliyokuwa kando ya barabara iendayo Shuri.
8 he seide to hir, Fro whennus comest thou Agar, the seruauntesse of Sarai, and whidur goist thou? Which answerde, Y fle fro the face of Sarai my ladi.
Malaika akamwambia, “Hagari, mtumishi wa Sarai, umetokea wapi, na unakwenda wapi?” Akamjibu, “Ninamkimbia bibi yangu Sarai.”
9 And the aungel of the Lord seide to hir, Turne thou ayen to thi ladi, and be thou mekid vndur hir hondis.
Ndipo malaika wa Bwana akamwambia, “Rudi kwa bibi yako ukajishushe chini yake.”
10 And eft he seide, Y multipliynge schal multiplie thi seed, and it schal not be noumbrid for multitude.
Malaika akaendelea akasema, “Nitazidisha wazao wako, hivi kwamba watakuwa wengi mno wasiohesabika.”
11 And aftirward he seide, Lo! thou hast conseyued, and thou schalt bere a sone, and thou schalt clepe his name Ismael, for the Lord hath herd thi turment;
Pia malaika wa Bwana akamwambia: “Wewe sasa una mimba nawe utamzaa mwana. Utamwita jina lake Ishmaeli, kwa sababu Bwana amesikia juu ya huzuni yako.
12 this schal be a wielde man; his hond schal be ayens alle men, and the hondis of alle men schulen be ayens him; and he schal sette tabernaclis euene ayens alle his britheren.
Atakuwa punda-mwitu katikati ya wanadamu, mkono wake utakuwa dhidi ya kila mtu na mkono wa kila mtu dhidi yake, naye ataishi kwa uhasama na ndugu zake wote.”
13 Forsothe Agar clepide the name of the Lord that spak to hir, Thou God that seiyest me; for sche seide, Forsothe here Y seiy the hynderere thingis of him that siy me.
Hagari akampa Bwana aliyezungumza naye jina hili: “Wewe ndiwe Mungu unionaye mimi,” kwa maana alisema, “Sasa nimemwona yeye anayeniona mimi.”
14 Therfor sche clepide thilke pit, the pit of hym that lyueth and seeth me; thilk pit is bitwixe Cades and Barad.
Ndiyo sababu kisima kile kikaitwa Beer-Lahai-Roi, ambacho bado kipo huko hata leo kati ya Kadeshi na Beredi.
15 And Agar childide a sone to Abram, which clepide his name Ismael.
Hivyo Hagari akamzalia Abramu mwana, naye Abramu akamwita huyo mwana Hagari aliyemzalia, Ishmaeli.
16 Abram was of `eiyti yeere and sixe, whanne Agar childide Ysmael to hym.
Abramu alikuwa na umri wa miaka themanini na sita wakati Hagari alipomzalia Ishmaeli.
