< Kinohi 16 >
1 O SARAI ka wahine a Aberama, aole ia i hanau keiki nana: a ia ia kekahi kauwawahine no Aigupita, o Hagara kona inoa.
Now Sarai the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children; but having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
2 I mai la o Sarai ia Aberama, Aia hoi, ua pa wau ia Iehova; ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e komo ae oe iloko i ka'u kauwawahine, i loaa paha ia'u na keiki ma o na la. Hoolohe aku la o Aberama i ka leo o Sarai.
She said to her husband: Behold, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: go in unto my handmaid, it may be I may have children of her at least. And when he agreed to her request,
3 Lalau aku la o Sarai o ka wahine a Aberama ia Hagara i kana kauwawahine no Aigupita, i ka umi o ka makahiki a Aberama i noho ai ma ka aina o Kanaana, a haawi mai la ia ia i wahine na kana kane na Aberama.
She took Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, ten years after they first dwelt in the land of Chanaan, and gave her to her husband to wife.
4 Komo aku la ia iloko io Hagara la, a ko ae la ia: a ike iho la ia ua ko, ua hoowahawahaia kona hakuwahine imua o kona maka.
And he went in to her. But she, perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
5 I mai la o Sarai ia Aberama, Iluna iho ou ko'u hoinoia: ua haawi aku au i ka'u kauwawahine iloko o kou poli; a ike iho la ia, na ko oia, hoowahawahaia no au e ia: e hooponopono mai o Iehova mawaena o kaua.
And Sarai said to Abram: Thou dost unjustly with me: I gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and she perceiving herself to be with child, despiseth me. The Lord judge between me and thee.
6 I aku la o Aberama ia Sarai, Aia hoi, iloko no o kou lima kau kauwawahine, e hana aku oe ia ia e like me kou makemake. A hoopilikia aku la o Sarai ia ia, mahuka aku la ia mai kona alo aku.
And Abram made answer, and said to her: Behold thy handmaid is in thy own hand, use her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai afflicted her, she ran away.
7 A loaa oia i ka anela o Iehova ma ka punawai iloko o ka waonahele, ma ka punawai o ke alanui e hele ai i Sura.
And the angel of the Lord having found her, by a fountain of water in the wilderness, which is in the way to Sur in the desert,
8 I mai la ia, E Hagara, e ke kauwawahine a Sarai, no hea mai oe? e hele ana hoi oe ihea? I aku la kela, Ke mahuka aku nei au mai ke alo o ko'u hakuwahine, mai o Sarai aku.
He said to her: Agar, handmaid of Sarai, whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she answered: I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.
9 Olelo mai la ka anela o Iehova ia ia, E hoi hou oe i kou hakuwahine, a e noho iho oe malalo o kona mau lima.
And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
10 I mai la hoi ka anela o Iehova ia ia, E hoonui loa no wau i kau poe mamo, aole lakou e hiki ke heluia no ka lehulehu.
And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
11 I mai la hoi ka anela o Iehova ia ia, Aia hoi, ua hapai oe, a e hanau mai no oe i keikikane, a e kapa oe i kona inoa o Isemaela; no ka mea, ua lohe no o Iehova i kou popilikia.
And again: Behold, said he, thou art with child, and thou shalt bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Ismael, because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
12 E lilo auanei ia i kanaka hihiu, e ku e aku no kona lima i na kanaka a pau, a e ku e mai no hoi ka lima o na kanaka a pau ia ia: a e noho auanei no ia ma ke alo o kona poe hoahanau a pau.
He shall be a wild man: his hand will be against all men, and all men’s hands against him: and he shall pitch his tents over against all his brethren.
13 Kapa aku la ia i ka inoa o Iehova nana i olelo mai ia ia, O oe e ke Akua ka mea i ike mai ia'u: no ka mea, i iho la ia, Ua imi aku no anei au i ka Mea ike mai ia'u?
And she called the name of the Lord that spoke unto her: Thou the God who hast seen me. For she said: Verily here have I seen the hinder parts of him that seeth me.
14 Nolaila, ua kapaia ua punawai la, o Beeralahairoi: aia no ia mawaena o Kadesa a o Bereda.
Therefore she called that well, The well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Barad.
15 Hanau mai la o Hagara i keikikane na Aberama: kapa aku la o Aberama i ka inoa o kana keiki a Hagara i hanau ai, o Isemaela.
And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
16 He kanawalukumamaono na makahiki o Aberama, i ka wa a Hagara i hanau ai ia Isemaela na Aberama.
Abram was four score and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
