Genesisy 16

1 Ary Saray, vadin’ i Abrama, tsy mba niteraka; ary izy nanana mpanompovavy Egyptiana, Hagara no anarany.

Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no sons. And she had a handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.

2 Ary hoy Saray tamin’ i Abrama: Indro, efa tsy nanome zanaka ahy Jehovah; masìna ianao, mivadia amin’ ny mpanompovaviko; angamba hahazo zaza aminy aho. Dia neken’ i Abrama ny tenin’ i Saray.

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 Ary rehefa nonina folo taona teo amin’ ny tany Kanana Abrama, dia nalain’ i Saray, vadin’ i Abrama, Hagara Egyptiana mpanompovaviny, ka nomeny an’ i Abrama vadiny mba hovadiny.

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 Dia nivady tamin’ i Hagara izy, ka nanan’ anaka ravehivavy; ary rehefa hitany fa efa manan’ anaka izy, dia nataony toy ny tsinontsinona ny tompovaviny.

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 Ary hoy Saray tamin’ i Abrama: Hanody anao anie ny fahoriako; fa efa nomeko ho andefimandrinao ny mpanompovaviko, ary nony hitany fa efa manan’ anaka izy, dia nataony toy ny tsinontsinona aho; Jehovah anie hitsara ahy sy ianao.

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 Ary hoy Abrama tamin’ i Saray: Indro, eo an-tananao ihany ny mpanompovavinao; ataovy aminy izay sitraponao. Ary raha nampahorin’ i Saray Hagara, dia nandositra ny tavany izy.

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 Ary Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah nahita azy teo anilan’ ny loharano anankiray tany an-efitra, dia teo anilan’ ilay loharano eo amin’ ny lalana mankany Sora.

And the agent of Jehovah found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.

8 Ary hoy Izy: Ry Hagara, andevovavin’ i Saray, avy taiza ianao? Ary hankaiza? Ary hoy izy; Mandositra ny tavan’ i Saray tompovaviko aho.

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 Ary hoy Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah taminy: Miverena any amin’ ny tompovavinao ka miareta izay ataony aminao.

And the agent of Jehovah said to her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.

10 Ary hoy koa Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah taminy: Hataoko maro indrindra ny taranakao, ka tsy ho azo isaina izy noho ny hamaroany.

And the agent of Jehovah said to her, I will greatly multiply thy seed, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.

11 Ary hoy indray Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah taminy: Indro, manan’ anaka ianao ka hiteraka zazalahy, ary ny anarany hataonao hoe Isimaela, satria efa nihaino ny fahorianao Jehovah.

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 Ary izy ho lehilahy toy ny boriki-dia; ny tànany hamely ny olona rehetra, ary ny tanan’ ny olona rehetra kosa hamely azy; ary honina eo tandrifin’ ny rahalahiny rehetra izy.

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 Ary Hagara nanao ny anaran’ i Jehovah, Izay niteny taminy hoe: Hianao no Andriamanitra Izay mahita; fa hoy izy: Tsy teto va no mbola velona aho aorian’ ny fahitana?

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 Izany no nanaovana ny lavaka fantsakana hoe: Bera-lahai-roy; indro, eo anelanelan’ i Kadesy sy Bareda izany.

Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

15 Ary Hagara dia niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Abrama; ary ny anaran’ ny zanany izay naterany dia nataon’ i Abrama hoe Isimaela.

And Hagar bore Abram a son. And Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

16 Ary efa enina amby valo-polo taona Abrama, raha Hagara niteraka an’ Isimaela taminy.

And Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
