< Jenesis 21 >
1 Onyenwe anyị jiri amara leta Sera dịka o kwuru na ọ ga-eme. Onyenwe anyị meere Sera ihe o kwere na nkwa.
And the Lord visited Sarrha, as he said, and the Lord did to Sarrha, as he spoke.
2 Sera tụụrụ ime, mụọra Ebraham nwa nwoke nʼoge o merela agadi. Ọ mụrụ ya nʼoge ahụ a kara aka Chineke kwere ya na nkwa.
And she conceived and bore to Abraam a son in old age, at the set time according as the Lord spoke to him.
3 Ebraham gụrụ nwantakịrị ahụ Sera mụụrụ ya aha, kpọọ ya Aịzik.
And Abraam called the name of his son that was born to him, whom Sarrha bore to him, Isaac.
4 Mgbe Aịzik nọrọ ụbọchị asatọ site nʼụbọchị a mụrụ ya, Ebraham biri ya ugwu dịka Chineke si nye ya nʼiwu.
And Abraam circumcised Isaac on the eighth day, as God commanded him.
5 Ebraham agbaala narị afọ mgbe a mụrụ Aịzik nwa ya nwoke.
And Abraam was a hundred years old when Isaac his son was born to him.
6 Nʼoge ahụ, Sera kwuru sị, “Chineke ewetarala m ọchị. Ndị niile nụrụ akụkọ a ga-esoro m chịa ọchị.”
And Sarrha said, The Lord has made laughter for me, for whoever shall hear shall rejoice with me.
7 O kwukwara sị, “Onye gaara agwa Ebraham sị ya na Sera ga-azụlite ụmụntakịrị. Ma otu ọ dị, amụtarala m ya nwa nwoke ugbu a o merela agadi.”
And she said, Who shall say to Abraam that Sarrha suckles a child? for I have born a child in my old age.
8 Nwata ahụ tokwara, ruo mgbe a kwụsịrị ya ara. Nʼụbọchị ahụ a kwụsịrị ya ara, Ebraham kpọrọ oriri.
And the child grew and was weaned, and Abraam made a great feast the day that his son Isaac was weaned.
9 Ma mgbe Sera hụrụ na nwa nwoke ahụ Hega onye Ijipt mụtaara Ebraham nọ na-akwa emo,
And Sarrha having seen the son of Agar the Egyptian who was born to Abraam, sporting with Isaac her son,
10 ọ gwara Ebraham okwu sị ya, “Chụpụ ohu nwanyị a na nwa ya. Nʼihi na nwa nwoke ohu nwanyị agaghị eso nwa m nwoke Aịzik keta oke nʼihe nketa.”
then she said to Abraam, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, for the son of this bondwoman shall not inherit with my son Isaac.
11 Okwu a wutere Ebraham nke ukwuu nʼihi na ihe banyere nwa ya nwoke Ishmel na-emetụ ya nʼobi.
But the word appeared very hard before Abraam concerning his son.
12 Ma Chineke gwara Ebraham sị, “Ekwela ka obi jọọ gị njọ nʼihi nwantakịrị a na ohu gị nwanyị. Gee ntị nʼihe ọbụla Sera gwara gị. Nʼihi na ọ bụ site nʼAịzik ka a ga-akpọ mkpụrụ gị aha.
But God said to Abraam, Let it not be hard before you concerning the child, and concerning the bondwoman; in all things whatever Sarrha shall say to you, hear her voice, for in Isaac shall your seed be called.
13 Aga m eme ka nwa gị nwoke nke ohu gị mụtara ghọọ mba dị ukwuu, nʼihi na mkpụrụ afọ gị ka ọ bụ.”
And moreover I will make the son of this bondwoman a great nation, because he is your seed.
14 Ebraham biliri nʼisi ụtụtụ echi ya, kwadoo ihe oriri na mmiri ọṅụṅụ nke dị nʼime karama akpụkpọ, bunye ha Hega. O bukwasịrị ha nʼubu Hega, zipụ ya na nwa ya nwoke. Hega si nʼebe ahụ pụọ wagharịa nʼime ọzara Bịasheba.
And Abraam rose up in the morning and took loaves and a skin of water, and gave [them] to Agar, and he put the child on her shoulder, and sent her away, and she having departed wandered in the wilderness near the well of the oath.
15 Mgbe mmiri dị na karama akpụkpọ ahụ gwụsịrị, o nibere nwantakịrị ahụ nʼokpuru otu osisi ọhịa.
And the water failed out of the skin, and she cast the child under a fir tree.
16 Hapụ ya gaa nọdụ ala nʼebe dịtụ anya, ihe dịka narị nzọ ụkwụ, nʼihi na o kwuru nʼobi ya sị, “Achọghị m ịhụ nwantakịrị nwoke a anya mgbe ọ na-anwụ.” Mgbe ọ nọdụrụ ebe ahụ, o bidoro ịkwa akwa.
And she departed and sat down opposite him at a distance, as it were a bow-shot, for she said, Surely I can’t see the death of my child: and she sat opposite him, and the child cried aloud and wept.
17 Ma Chineke nụrụ ịkwa akwa nwantakịrị nwoke ahụ. Mmụọ ozi Chineke sikwa na mbara eluigwe kpọọ Hega oku sị ya, “Hega, gịnị na-eme gị? Atụla egwu, nʼihi na Chineke anụla olu akwa nwantakịrị ahụ nʼebe ahụ o dina.
And God heard the voice of the child from the place where he was, and an angel of God called Agar out of heaven, and said to her, What is it, Agar? fear not, for God has heard the voice of the child from the place where he is.
18 Gaa kulite nwantakịrị ahụ kasịe ya obi, nʼihi na aga m eme ya ka ọ ghọọ mba dị ukwuu.”
Rise up, and take the child, and hold him in your hand, for I will make him a great nation.
19 Mgbe ahụ, Chineke meghere anya ya, mee ka ọ hụ olulu mmiri dị nʼebe ahụ. Ọ gara kujuo karama akpụkpọ ahụ mmiri, ma nye nwantakịrị ahụ mmiri ka ọ ṅụọ.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of springing water; and she went and filled the skin with water, and gave the child drink.
20 Chineke nọnyeere nwantakịrị ahụ mgbe ọ na-eto. O biri nʼọzara ahụ ghọọ onye na-agba àkụ nke ọma.
And God was with the child, and he grew and lived in the wilderness, and became an archer.
21 Mgbe o bi nʼọzara Paran, nne ya chọtaara ya nwunye site nʼIjipt.
And he lived in the wilderness, and his mother took him a wife out of Pharan of Egypt.
22 Nʼoge a, Abimelek na Fikọl onyeisi ndị agha ya, bịakwutere Ebraham sị ya, “Chineke nọnyeere gị nʼihe niile ị na-eme.
And it came to pass at that time that Abimelech spoke, and Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the chief captain of his host, to Abraam, saying, God is with you in all things, whatever you may do.
23 Ugbu a, ṅụọra m iyi nʼaha Chineke na ị gaghị aghọgbu m maọbụ ghọgbuo ụmụ m, maọbụ ụmụ ụmụ m. Gosi m nʼobodo a i bi nʼime ya dịka onye ọbịa ụdị obiọma m gosiri gị.”
Now therefore swear to me by God that you will not injure me, nor my seed, nor my name, but according to the righteousness which I have performed with you you shall deal with me, and with the land in which you have sojourned.
24 Ebraham zara sị ya, “Ọ dị mma, aga m aṅụrụ gị iyi.”
And Abraam said, I will swear.
25 Mgbe ahụ, Ebraham kọsaara Abimelek ihe banyere olulu mmiri nke ndị na-ejere ya ozi ji anya ike nara ndị na-ejere Ebraham ozi.
And Abraam reproved Abimelech because of the wells of water, which the servants of Abimelech took away.
26 Abimelek zara sị, “Amaghị m onye mere ihe dị otu a. Ị gwaghị m na ihe dị otu a mere, anụghị m ya ma ọ bụghị naanị taa.”
And Abimelech said to him, I know not who has done this thing to you, neither did you tell it me, neither heard I it but only today.
27 Mgbe ahụ, Ebraham kpụpụtara atụrụ, na ehi, nye Abimelek. Ha abụọ gbara ndụ nkwekọrịta.
And Abraam took sheep and calves, and gave them to Abimelech, and both made a covenant.
28 Mgbe Ebraham sitere nʼigwe atụrụ ya wepụta nne atụrụ asaa nupu ha ka ha nọpụ iche,
And Abraam set seven ewe-lambs by themselves.
29 Abimelek jụrụ Ebraham sị ya, “Gịnị ka i ji nne atụrụ asaa ndị a ị họpụtara iche eme?”
And Abimelech said to Abraam, What are these seven ewe-lambs which you have set alone?
30 Ebraham zara sị, “Nabata ụmụ atụrụ asaa ndị a dịka ihe akaebe na-egosi na ọ bụ m gwuru olulu mmiri a.”
And Abraam said, You shall receive the seven ewe-lambs of me, that they may be for me as a witness, that I dug this well.
31 Ya mere, e bidoro ịkpọ ebe ahụ Bịasheba, nʼihi na nʼebe ahụ ka mmadụ abụọ a nọ ṅụrịtaara onwe ha iyi.
Therefore he named the name of that place, The Well of the Oath, for there they both swore.
32 Mgbe ha gbachara ndụ nkwekọrịta na Bịasheba, Abimelek na Fikọl onyeisi agha ya laghachiri azụ nʼala ndị Filistia.
And they made a covenant at the well of the oath. And there rose up Abimelech, Ochozath his friend, and Phichol the commander-in-chief of his army, and they returned to the land of the Phylistines.
33 Ebraham kụrụ osisi tamarisk na Bịasheba. Ebe ahụ ka ọ nọ kpọkuo aha Onyenwe anyị, Chineke ebighị ebi.
And Abraam planted a field at the well of the oath, and called there on the name of the Lord, the everlasting God.
34 Ebraham bigidere nʼala ndị Filistia ogologo oge.
And Abraam sojourned in the land of the Phylistines many days.
