Pirmā Mozus 16

1 Un Sāraī, Ābrama sieva, tam nedzemdēja, un tai bija kalpone no Ēģiptes, Hāgare vārdā.

Up to that time, Abram’s wife Sarai had not given birth to any children for Abram. But she had a female slave from Egypt, whose name was Hagar.

2 Un Sāraī sacīja uz Ābramu: redzi, Tas Kungs man ir liedzis dzemdēt, ej jel pie manas kalpones, vai es caur viņu nemantotu dzimumu. Un Ābrams klausīja Sāraī balsij.

[So one day] Sarai said to Abram, “Listen to me! Yahweh has not allowed me to become pregnant. So (sleep with/have sex with) [EUP] my slave Hagar. Perhaps she will bear children whom I can consider to be mine.” Abram agreed to do what Sarai said.

3 Tad Sāraī, Ābrama sieva, ņēma Hāgari, to Ēģiptieti, savu kalponi, kad Ābrams desmit gadus bija dzīvojis Kanaāna zemē, un deva to par sievu Ābramam, savam vīram.

So Abram (slept with/had sex with) Hagar, his wife Sarai’s slave from Egypt. This happened ten years after they went to live in Canaan [land]. Sarai gave Hagar to her husband to be his secondary wife.

4 Un viņš gāja pie Hāgares, un tā tapa grūta. Kad nu tā redzēja, ka bija grūta, tad viņas valdniece bija nicināta viņas acīs.

He (slept with/had sex with) [EUP] Hagar and she became pregnant. When she realized that she was pregnant, she began to despise her mistress Sarai.

5 Tad Sāraī sacīja uz Ābramu: tu dari nepareizi; savu kalponi es esmu devusi tavā klēpī, un nu viņa redz sevi grūtu esam, un es esmu nicināta viņas acīs; Tas Kungs lai tiesā starp mani un tevi.

Then Sarai said to Abram, “It is your fault! I put my servant into your arms, so that you could sleep with her [EUP]. Now she realizes that she is pregnant, and she despises me. I think Yahweh will punish you for doing this to me!”

6 Un Ābrams sacīja uz Sāraī: redzi, tava kalpone ir tavā rokā, dari tai, kā tev patīk.

So Abram said to Sarai, “[You listen to me]! She is your servant, so act towards her in the way you consider best.” Then Sarai started to mistreat her, so she ran away from Sarai.

7 Un Sāraī to pārmācīja, un tā aizbēga no viņas; un Tā Kunga eņģelis to atrada pie ūdens akas tuksnesī, pie tās akas uz Šuras ceļa.

An angel of Yahweh found her as she was near a spring of water in the desert. It was the spring that was alongside the road to Shur.

8 Un tas sacīja: Hāgare, Sāraī kalpone, no kurienes tu nāci un uz kurieni tu ej? Un tā sacīja: es bēgu no savas valdnieces Sāraī.

He said to her, “Hagar, slave of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” She replied, “I have run away from Sarai, my mistress.”

9 Tad Tā Kunga eņģelis tai sacīja: griezies atpakaļ pie savas valdnieces un pazemojies apakš viņas rokas.

The angel said, “Go back to your mistress and be under her authority [MTY]”.

10 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis uz to sacīja: Es vairodams vairošu tavu dzimumu, un to neskaitīs liela pulka dēļ.

The angel also said to her, “I will enable you to bear so many descendants that no one will be able to count them!”

11 Un Tā Kunga eņģelis uz to sacīja: redzi, tu esi grūta un dzemdēsi dēlu; nosauc viņa vārdu Ismaēls, tāpēc ka Tas Kungs tavas bēdas paklausījis.

The angel also said to her, “[Listen to this!] You are pregnant. You will give birth to a son. You must name him Ishmael, [which means ‘God hears]’, because Yahweh has heard you crying because you feel so miserable.

12 Un tas būs cilvēks kā meža ēzelis; viņa roka būs pret ikkatru, un ikkatra roka pret viņu, un viņš dzīvos visu savu brāļu priekšā.

But your son will be as uncontrollable as a wild donkey [MET]. He will oppose everyone, and everyone will oppose him [MTY]. He will live far away from his relatives [SYN].”

13 Un tā nosauca Tā Kunga vārdu, kas ar viņu bija runājis: Tu esi tas stiprais Dievs, kas mani redz; jo tā sacīja: vai es šeit gan neesmu pakaļ skatījusies Tam, kas mani uzlūkojis?

Then Hagar realized that the angel was really Yahweh, so she said to herself, “(It is difficult to believe that I have really seen the back of Yahweh, the one who sees me!/Have I really seen the back of Yahweh, the one who sees me?)” [RHQ] So she called him ‘Yahweh, the one who sees me’.

14 Tāpēc to aku sauc par Beer Lekai-Roī (tas ir: par dzīvā aku, kas mani uzlūko); redzi, tā ir starp Kādešu un Baredu.

That is why people call the well there ‘Beer-Lahai-Roi’, [which means, ‘The well of the living one who sees us’!] It is still there, between Kadesh and Bered.

15 Un Hāgare dzemdēja Ābramam dēlu, un Ābrams nosauca savu dēlu, ko Hāgare tam bija dzemdējusi, par Ismaēli.

So Hagar later gave birth to a son for Abram, and she gave to her son the name Ishmael.

16 Un Ābrams bija astoņdesmit un sešus gadus vecs, kad Hāgare viņam Ismaēli dzemdēja.

Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Abram’s son Ishmael.
