Mose 1 16
1 Vi aɖeke menɔ Sarai kple Abram si o. Ke Egipte nyɔnudɔla aɖe nɔ Sarai si. Eŋkɔe nye Hagar.
Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had not borne any children for him, but she had a female servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
2 Ale Sarai gblɔ na Abram be, “Yehowa te vim. Yi nàdɔ nye kosi gbɔ, ɖewohĩ mado ƒome to edzi.” Abram lɔ̃ ɖe nya si Sarai gblɔ la dzi.
So Sarai said to Abram, “See, Yahweh has kept me from having children. Go sleep with my servant. It may be that I will have children by her.” Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
3 Ale esi Abram nɔ Kanaan ƒe ewo megbe la, srɔ̃a, Sarai, tsɔ eƒe Egipte kosi, Hagar na srɔ̃ŋutsua be wòanye srɔ̃a.
It was after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan that Sarai, Abram's wife, gave Hagar, her Egyptian servant, to her husband as a wife.
4 Ale Abram dɔ Hagar gbɔ, eye wòfɔ fu. Esi Hagar kpɔ be yefɔ fu la, dadagbɔgbɔ aɖe va ɖo eme, eye megabua eƒe aƒenɔ Sarai o.
So he had relations with Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, she looked with contempt on her mistress.
5 Le esia ta Sarai gblɔ na Abram be, “Wò vodadae na be nye kosi la doa vlom, togbɔ be nye ŋutɔe tsɔe na wò hã. Yehowa nadrɔ̃ ʋɔnu le nye kpli wò dome.”
Then Sarai said to Abram, “This wrong on me is because of you. I gave my servant woman into your embrace, and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes. Let Yahweh judge between me and you.”
6 Abram ɖo eŋu be, “Meɖe mɔ na wò be nàhe to na kosi la ale si nèbu be edze.” Ale Sarai wɔ funyafunya Hagar ale gbegbe be wòsi dzo.
But Abram said to Sarai, “See here, your servant woman is in your power, do to her what you think best.” So Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her.
7 Yehowa ƒe dɔla aɖe kpɔe wòtsi tsitre ɖe vudo aɖe to le Sur mɔ dzi.
The angel of Yahweh found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, the spring that is on the way to Shur.
8 Ale wòbiae be, “Hagar, Sarai ƒe kosi, afi ka nètso, eye afi ka yim nèle?” Hagar ɖo eŋu be, “Sisim mele le nye aƒenɔ nu.”
He said, “Hagar, Sarai's servant, where did you come from and where are you going?” Then she said, “I am fleeing from my mistress Sarai.”
9 Yehowa ƒe dɔla la yi edzi gblɔ nɛ be, “Trɔ nàyi wò aƒenɔ gbɔ, eye nàbɔbɔ ɖokuiwò nɛ,
The angel of Yahweh said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to her authority.”
10 elabena mana dukɔ gã aɖe nado tso mewò.
Then the angel of Yahweh said to her, “I will greatly multiply your descendants, so that they will be too numerous to count.”
11 Fifia, èfɔ fu; àdzi ŋutsuvi. Na ŋkɔe be Ismael, si gɔmee nye, ‘Mawu see,’ elabena Yehowa se wò konyifafa.
The angel of Yahweh also said to her, “Behold, you are pregnant and will bear a son, and you will call his name Ishmael, because Yahweh has heard your affliction.
12 Viwò sia anye vi dzeaglã aɖe, eye wòawɔ nu glalaglalã abe tedzi dzeaglã ene! Atsi tsitre ɖe ame sia ame ŋu, eye nenema ke ame sia ame hã atsi tsitre ɖe eŋu. Ke hã la, anɔ teƒe ɖeka kple nɔvia bubuawo.”
He will be a wild donkey of a man. He will be hostile against every man, and every man will be hostile to him, and he will live apart from all his brothers.”
13 Hagar bia eɖokui be, “Ɖe mekpɔ Mawu ŋkume kple ŋkume hafi gale agbe be maƒo nu tso eŋua?” Eya ta eyɔ Yehowa ame si ƒo nu kpli la be, “Mawu si kpɔa nu.”
Then she gave this name to Yahweh who spoke to her, “You are the God who sees me,” for she said, “Do I really continue to see, even after he has seen me?”
14 Emegbe la, wona ŋkɔ vudo ma be Beer Lahai Roi si gɔmee nye, “Ame si le agbe, eye wòkpɔm la ƒe vudo.” Ele Kades kple Bered dome.
Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Hagar dzi ŋutsuvi na Abram, eye Abram na ŋkɔe be Ismael.
Hagar gave birth to Abram's son, and Abram named his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16 Abram xɔ ƒe blaenyi-vɔ-ade esi Hagar dzi Ismael nɛ.
Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
