Kĩambĩrĩria 16
1 Na rĩrĩ, Sarai mũtumia wa Aburamu ndaamũciarĩire ciana. No nĩ aarĩ na mũirĩtu Mũmisiri wamũtungatagĩra wetagwo Hagari;
And Sarai, Abram's wife, hath not borne to him, and she hath an handmaid, an Egyptian, and her name [is] 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.
and Sarai saith unto Abram, 'Lo, I pray thee, Jehovah hath restrained me from bearing, go in, I pray thee, unto my handmaid; perhaps I am built up from her;' and Abram hearkeneth 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.
And Sarai, Abram's wife, taketh Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, at the end of the tenth year of Abram's dwelling in the land of Canaan, and giveth her to Abram her husband, to him for a wife,
4 Nake Aburamu agĩkoma na Hagari, nake akĩgĩa nda. Na rĩrĩa aamenyire atĩ nĩagĩĩte nda-rĩ, akĩambĩrĩria kũnyarara Sarai mwathi wake.
and he goeth in unto Hagar, and she conceiveth, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and her mistress is lightly esteemed 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.”
And Sarai saith unto Abram, 'My violence [is] for thee; I — I have given mine handmaid into thy bosom, and she seeth that she hath conceived, and I am lightly esteemed in her eyes; Jehovah doth judge between me and thee.'
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.
And Abram saith unto Sarai, 'Lo, thine handmaid [is] in thine hand, do to her that which is good in thine eyes;' and Sarai afflicted her, and she fleeth 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 a messenger of Jehovah findeth her by the fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in 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 saith, 'Hagar, Sarai's handmaid, whence hast thou come, and whither dost thou go?' and she saith, 'From the presence of Sarai, my mistress, I am fleeing.'
9 Ningĩ mũraika wa Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Cooka kũrĩ mũtumia ũcio mwathi waku na ũmwĩnyiihĩrie.”
And the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Turn back unto thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hands;'
10 Ningĩ mũraika agĩcooka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngaingĩhia njiaro ciaku ũndũ itagaatarĩka.”
and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Multiplying I multiply thy seed, and it is not numbered from multitude;'
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.
and the messenger of Jehovah saith to her, 'Behold thou [art] conceiving, and bearing a son, and hast called his name Ishmael, for Jehovah hath hearkened unto thine 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.”
and he is a wild-ass man, his hand against every one, and every one's hand against him — and before the face of all his brethren he dwelleth.'
13 Nake Hagari akĩhe Jehova ũcio wamwarĩirie rĩĩtwa rĩĩrĩ: “Wee nĩwe Ngai ũrĩa ũnyonaga,” nĩgũkorwo oigire atĩrĩ, “Rĩu niĩ ndĩkuona Ũrĩa ũnyonaga.”
And she calleth the name of Jehovah who is speaking unto her, 'Thou [art], O God, my beholder;' for she said, 'Even here have I looked behind my beholder?'
14 Nĩkĩo gĩthima kĩu gĩetirwo Biri-Lahai-Roi, na kĩrĩ o ho, kũu gatagatĩ ga Kadeshi na Beredi.
therefore hath one called the well, 'The well of the Living One, my beholder;' lo, between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Hagari agĩciarĩra Aburamu mwana wa kahĩĩ, nake Aburamu agĩtua kaana kau aaciarĩirwo Ishumaeli.
And Hagar beareth to Abram a son; and Abram calleth the name of his son, whom Hagar hath borne, Ishmael;
16 Aburamu aarĩ wa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩnana na ĩtandatũ rĩrĩa Hagari aamũciarĩire Ishumaeli.
and Abram [is] a son of eighty and six years in Hagar's bearing Ishmael to Abram.
