< Farawa 16 >

1 To, Saira, matar Abram, ba tă haifa masa’ya’ya ba. Amma tana da wata baiwa mutuniyar Masar mai suna Hagar,
Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had given him no children; and she had a servant, a woman of Egypt whose name was Hagar.
2 saboda haka sai ta ce wa Abram, “Ubangiji ya hana mini haihuwar’ya’ya. Tafi ka kwana da baiwata; wataƙila in sami iyali ta wurinta.” Abram kuwa ya yarda da abin da Saira ta faɗa.
And Sarai said to Abram, See, the Lord has not let me have children; go in to my servant, for I may get a family through her. And Abram did as Sarai said.
3 Saboda haka bayan Abram ya yi zama a Kan’ana shekaru goma, Saira matarsa ta ɗauki Hagar baiwarta ta ba wa mijinta tă zama matarsa.
So after Abram had been living for ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian servant, and gave her to Abram for his wife.
4 Abram kuwa ya kwana da Hagar, ta kuma yi ciki. Sa’ad da Hagar ta gane tana da ciki, sai ta fara rena uwargijiyarta.
And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.
5 Sai Saira ta ce wa Abram, “Kai ne da alhakin wahalan nan da nake sha. Na sa baiwata a hannunka, yanzu da ta sani tana da ciki, sai ta fara rena ni. Bari Ubangiji yă shari’anta tsakanina da kai.”
And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me.
6 Abram ya ce, “Baiwarki tana a hannunki? Ki yi da ita yadda kika ga ya fi kyau.” Sai Saira ta wulaƙanta Hagar; saboda haka ta gudu daga gare ta.
And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her.
7 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya sami Hagar kusa da maɓulɓula a jeji, ita ce maɓulɓular da take gefen hanya zuwa Shur.
And an angel of the Lord came to her by a fountain of water in the waste land, by the fountain on the way to Shur.
8 Ya kuma ce mata, “Hagar, baiwar Saira, daga ina kika fito, kuma ina za ki?” Ta amsa ta ce, “Ina gudu ne daga wurin uwargijiyata Saira.”
And he said, Hagar, Sarai's servant, where have you come from and where are you going? And she said, I am running away from Sarai, my master's wife.
9 Sai mala’ikan Ubangiji ya ce mata, “Koma wurin uwargijiyarki Saira, ki yi mata biyayya.”
And the angel said to her, Go back, and put yourself under her authority.
10 Mala’ikan ya ƙara da cewa, “Zan ƙara zuriyarki har su yi yawan da ba wanda zai iya lasafta su.”
And the angel of the Lord said, Your seed will be greatly increased so that it may not be numbered.
11 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya kuma ce mata, “Ga shi kina da ciki za ki kuwa haifi ɗa. Za ki ba shi suna Ishmayel, gama Ubangiji ya ga wahalarki.
And the angel of the Lord said, See, you are with child and will give birth to a son, to whom you will give the name Ishmael, because the ears of the Lord were open to your sorrow.
12 Zai zama mutum mai halin jakin jeji. Hannunsa zai yi gāba da kowa, hannun kowa kuma zai yi gāba da shi. Zai yi zama gāba ga dukan’yan’uwansa.”
And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.
13 Sai ta ba wa Ubangiji wanda ya yi magana da ita, wannan suna. “Kai Allah ne wanda yake ganina,” gama ta ce, “Yanzu na ga wanda yake ganina.”
And to the Lord who was talking with her she gave this name, You are a God who is seen; for she said, Have I not even here in the waste land had a vision of God and am still living?
14 Shi ya sa ake kira rijiyar Beyer-Lahai-Royi tana nan har yanzu, tsakanin Kadesh da Bered.
So that fountain was named, Fountain of Life and Vision: it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Haka fa Hagar ta haifa wa Abram ɗa, Abram kuwa ya ba da suna Ishmayel ga ɗan da ta haifa.
And Hagar gave birth to a child, the son of Abram, to whom Abram gave the name of Ishmael.
16 Abram yana da shekaru 86 sa’ad da Hagar ta haifa masa Ishmayel.
Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.
