Genesis 16
1 igitur Sarai uxor Abram non genuerat liberos sed habens ancillam aegyptiam nomine Agar
Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no sons. And she had a handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
2 dixit marito suo ecce conclusit me Dominus ne parerem ingredere ad ancillam meam si forte saltem ex illa suscipiam filios cumque ille adquiesceret deprecanti
And Sarai said to Abram, Behold now, Jehovah has restrained me from bearing. Go in, I pray thee, to my handmaid. It may be that I will obtain sons by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
3 tulit Agar Aegyptiam ancillam suam post annos decem quam habitare coeperant in terra Chanaan et dedit eam viro suo uxorem
And Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.
4 qui ingressus est ad eam at illa concepisse se videns despexit dominam suam
And he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. And when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
5 dixitque Sarai ad Abram inique agis contra me ego dedi ancillam meam in sinum tuum quae videns quod conceperit despectui me habet iudicet Dominus inter me et te
And Sarai said to Abram, My wrong be upon thee. I gave my handmaid into they bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes. Jehovah judge between me and thee.
6 cui respondens Abram ecce ait ancilla tua in manu tua est utere ea ut libet adfligente igitur eam Sarai fugam iniit
But Abram said to Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand, do to her that which is good in thine eyes. And Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.
7 cumque invenisset illam angelus Domini iuxta fontem aquae in solitudine qui est in via Sur
And the agent of Jehovah found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
8 dixit ad eam Agar ancilla Sarai unde venis et quo vadis quae respondit a facie Sarai dominae meae ego fugio
And he said, Hagar, Sarai's handmaid, from where have thou come? And where are thou going? And she said, I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.
9 dixitque ei angelus Domini revertere ad dominam tuam et humiliare sub manibus ipsius
And the agent of Jehovah said to her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.
10 et rursum multiplicans inquit multiplicabo semen tuum et non numerabitur prae multitudine
And the agent of Jehovah said to her, I will greatly multiply thy seed, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
11 ac deinceps ecce ait concepisti et paries filium vocabisque nomen eius Ismahel eo quod audierit Dominus adflictionem tuam
And the agent of Jehovah said to her, Behold, thou are with child, and shall bear a son, and thou shall call his name Ishmael, because Jehovah has heard thy affliction.
12 hic erit ferus homo manus eius contra omnes et manus omnium contra eum et e regione universorum fratrum suorum figet tabernacula
And he will be a wild donkey among men, his hand against every man, and every man's hand against him, and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brothers.
13 vocavit autem nomen Domini qui loquebatur ad eam Tu Deus qui vidisti me dixit enim profecto hic vidi posteriora videntis me
And she called the name of Jehovah who spoke to her, Thou are a God who sees, for she said, Have I even here looked behind him who sees me?
14 propterea appellavit puteum illum puteum Viventis et videntis me ipse est inter Cades et Barad
Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 peperitque Abrae filium qui vocavit nomen eius Ismahel
And Hagar bore Abram a son. And Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16 octoginta et sex annorum erat quando peperit ei Agar Ismahelem
And Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
