< Kĩambĩrĩria 16 >

1 Na rĩrĩ, Sarai mũtumia wa Aburamu ndaamũciarĩire ciana. No nĩ aarĩ na mũirĩtu Mũmisiri wamũtungatagĩra wetagwo Hagari;
Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no children, but she had an Egyptian servant whose name was Hagar.
2 tondũ ũcio Sarai akĩĩra Aburamu atĩrĩ, “Jehova nĩagirĩtie ngĩe na ciana. Thiĩ ũkome na ndungata yakwa ya mũirĩtu; hihi kwahoteka ngĩe na rũciaro nĩ ũndũ wake.” Nake Aburamu agĩĩtĩkania na ũrĩa Sarai oigire.
Sarai said to Abram, "Look now, God has prevented 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 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, thuutha wa Aburamu gũkorwo atũũrĩte Kaanani mĩaka ikũmi-rĩ, mũtumia wake Sarai akĩoya Hagari Mũmisiri ũrĩa warĩ ndungata yake ya mũirĩtu, akĩmũneana kũrĩ mũthuuriwe atuĩke mũtumia wake.
So 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 Nake Aburamu agĩkoma na Hagari, nake akĩgĩa nda. Na rĩrĩa aamenyire atĩ nĩagĩĩte nda-rĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũnyarara Sarai mwathi wake.
He slept with Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
5 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Sarai akĩĩra Aburamu atĩrĩ, “Ũũru ũyũ ũrathĩĩnia-rĩ, ũrogũcookerera arĩ we. Ndaneanire ndungata yakwa moko-inĩ maku, na rĩu tondũ nĩĩmenyete atĩ ĩrĩ na nda, no kũũnyarara. Jehova arotũtuithania niĩ nawe.”
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. God judge between me and you."
6 Aburamu akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndungata yaku ĩrĩ moko-inĩ maku. Ĩka nayo ũrĩa ũkuona kwagĩrĩire.” Nake Sarai akĩnyamaria Hagari mũno; nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hagari akĩmũũrĩra.
But Abram said to Sarai, "Look, your servant is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your sight." Sarai dealt harshly with her, so she fled from her presence.
7 Mũraika wa Jehova agĩkora Hagari hakuhĩ na handũ haatherũkaga maaĩ werũ-inĩ; gathima kau kaarĩ mũkĩra-inĩ wa njĩra ĩrĩa ya gũthiĩ Shuri.
And the angel of God found her by a spring of water in the desert, by the spring on the way to Shur.
8 Mũraika akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Hagari ndungata ya Sarai, uuma kũ na wathiĩ kũ?” Hagari akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kũũrĩra ndĩroorĩra Sarai ũrĩa mwathi wakwa.”
And he said, "Hagar, servant of Sarai, where did you come from, and where are you going?" And she said, "I am running away from the presence of my mistress Sarai."
9 Ningĩ mũraika wa Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Cooka kũrĩ mũtumia ũcio mwathi waku na ũmwĩnyiihĩrie.”
The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to her authority."
10 Ningĩ mũraika agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngaingĩhia njiaro ciaku ũndũ itagaatarĩka.”
The angel of the LORD said to her, "I will greatly multiply your descendants, so that they will be too numerous to count."
11 Mũraika wa Jehova ningĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Rĩu ũrĩ na nda, na nĩũgaciara kaana ga kahĩĩ, na ũgaagatua Ishumaeli. Nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩaiguĩte ũhoro wa mĩnyamaro yaku.
Then the angel of God said to her, "Look, you are with child, and will bear a son. You are to name him Ishmael, because God has heard your affliction.
12 Mũrũguo agaatuĩka wa mbũrũrũ ta ndigiri ya gĩthaka; guoko gwake gũgookagĩrĩra andũ othe, nao andũ othe mamũũkagĩrĩre: agaatũũra na ũthũ na ariũ a ithe othe.”
He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him. And he will live away from all of his brothers."
13 Nake Hagari akĩhe Jehova ũcio wamwarĩirie rĩĩtwa rĩĩrĩ: “Wee nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa ũnyonaga,” nĩgũkorwo oigire atĩrĩ, “Rĩu niĩ ndĩkuona Ũrĩa ũnyonaga.”
And she called his name, the one who spoke to her, "You are El Roi," for she said, "Here I have seen the one who sees me."
14 Nĩkĩo gĩthima kĩu gĩetirwo Biri-Lahai-Roi, na kĩrĩ o ho, kũu gatagatĩ ga Kadeshi na Beredi.
Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Look, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hagari agĩciarĩra Aburamu mwana wa kahĩĩ, nake Aburamu agĩtua kaana kau aaciarĩirwo Ishumaeli.
Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16 Aburamu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩnana na ĩtandatũ rĩrĩa Hagari aamũciarĩire Ishumaeli.
Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
