Kenehi 21
1 Na ka tirohia mai a Hara e Ihowa, ka peratia me tana i korero ai, a rite tonu ki tana kupu ta Ihowa i mea ai ki a Hara.
Now, Yahweh, visited Sarah, as he had said, —And Yahweh did for Sarah as he had spoken.
2 Na ka hapu a Hara, a ka whanau he tama ma Aperahama i tona koroheketanga i te wa ano i whakaritea e te Atua ki a ia.
So, Sarah, conceived and bare, to Abraham, a son, for his old age, at the set time, of which God had spoken with him.
3 Na ka huaina e Aperahama te ingoa o tana tama i whanau nei mana, i whanau mai nei i a Hara, ko Ihaka.
And Abraham called the name of his son that was born to him, whom, Sarah, bare to him, Isaac.
4 A, ka waru ona ra, ka kotia e Aperahama a Ihaka, tana tama, ka peratia me ta te Atua i whakahau ai ki a ia.
And Abraham circumcised Isaac his son, when eight days old, —as God commanded him.
5 A kotahi rua nga tau o Aperahama i te whanautanga o tana tama, o Ihaka.
Now Abraham was a hundred years old, —when Isaac his son was born to him.
6 Na ka mea a Hara, Kua meinga ahau e te Atua kia kata; a ka kata tahi matou ko nga tangata e rongo mai ana.
And Sarah said, A laughing, hath God made for me, —Everyone that heareth will laugh with me.
7 A i mea ano ia, Ko wai o mua hei mea ki a Aperahama, tera e whakangote tamariki a Hara? kua whanau nei i ahau he tama mana, i a ia kua koroheketia.
And she said—Who would have announced to Abraham, Sarah hath suckled children? yet have I borne a son, for his old age!
8 Na ka tupu te tamaiti ra, a ka whakamutua tana kai u: na ka tukua e Aperahama tetahi hakari nui i te ra i whakamutua ai te ngote u a Ihaka.
And the child grew, and was weaned, —and Abraham made a great banquet, on the day of the weaning of Isaac.
9 A ka kite a Hara i te tama a Hakara, a te wahine o Ihipa, i whanau nei i a raua ko Aperahama, e kata whakahawea ana.
And Sarah saw the son of Hagar the Egyptian woman whom she had borne to Abraham laughing!
10 Na ka mea ia ki a Aperahama, Peia atu tenei pononga me tana tama: e kore rawa te tama a tenei wahine pononga e tu tahi me taku tama, me Ihaka, i nga whakarerenga iho.
So she said to Abraham, Cast out this bondwoman and her son, —for the son of this bondwoman must not inherit with my son with Isaac.
11 A ko taua mea he he rawa ki te titiro a Aperahama, ko tana tama hoki ia.
And the word was very grievous in the eyes of Abraham, —on account of his son.
12 Ka mea te Atua ki a Aperahama, Kei kino tena ki tau titiro, kaua e whakaaro ki te tamaiti raua ko tau pononga wahine; engari i nga mea katoa i korero ai a Hara ki a koe, whakarongo atu ki tona reo; kei a Ihaka hoki te karangatanga mo tou uri.
And God said unto Abraham Let it not be grievous in thine eyes concerning the boy and concerning thy bondwoman, In all that Sarah may say unto thee, hearken to her voice, —For in Isaac, shall there be called to thee—a seed.
13 Na, ko te tama a te pononga wahine, ka meinga ia e ahau hei iwi, no te mea he uri ia nou.
Yet even the son of the bondwoman, will I appoint to become, a nation, because thy seed, he is.
14 Na ka maranga wawe a Aperahama i te ata, ka mau ki tetahi taro, ki tetahi taha wai, a hoatu ana e ia ki a Hakara, whakawaha ana ki tona pokohiwi, me te tamaiti hoki, a tonoa atu ana: na ka haere ia, ka kopikopiko i te koraha o Peerehepa.
So Abraham rose up early in the morning—and took bread and a skin of water and gave unto hagar, —putting them on her shoulder and the child, and sent her forth, —so she went her way and wandered, in the desert of Beer-sheba.
15 A kau pau te wai i roto i te taha, na whakarerea iho e ia te tamaiti i raro i tetahi rakau iti.
And the water out of the skin was spent, —so she cast the child under one of the shrubs;
16 Na ka haere ia, a ka noho mai i tawhiti, me te anga nui mai ano ki a ia, he pera te matara me te taunga pere: i mea hoki ia, Kei kite ahau i te matenga o te tamaiti. Na ka noho ia me te aronui mai ki a ia, a ka puaki tona reo, ka tangi.
and went and sat her down over against him at a distance like as of such as draw the bow, for she said Let me not look upon the death of the child, —So she sat down over against him, and the boy lifted up his voice, and wept
17 A i rongo te Atua ki te reo o te tamaiti: a ka karanga mai te anahera a te Atua ki a Hakara i runga i te rangi, ka mea ki a ia, He aha kei a koe, e Hakara? kaua e wehi; kua rongo hoki te Atua ki te reo o te tamaiti i a ia e takoto na.
And God heard the voice of the boy, and a messenger of God called unto Hagar out of the heavens; and said to her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Do not fear, for God hath hearkened unto the voice of the boy where he is.
18 Whakatika, hapainga ake te tamaiti, puritia hoki ki tou ringa; no te mea ka meinga ia e ahau hei iwi nui.
Arise lift up the boy, and hold him up with thy hand, —for, a great nation, will I make him.
19 Na ka whakatirohia e te Atua ona kanohi, a ka kite ia i tetahi puna wai: na ka haere ia, ka whakaki i te taha ki te wai, a whakainumia ana te tamaiti.
And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water, —and went and filled the skin with water, and gave drink unto the boy
20 A i noho te Atua ki te tamaiti, a ka tupu ia; i noho ia i te koraha, a ka mohio ki te kopere.
And it came to pass that God was with the boy, and he grew, —and dwelt in the desert, and he became as he grew up, an archer,
21 Na ka noho ia ki te koraha o Parana: a ka tikina atu e tona whaea he wahine mana i te whenua o Ihipa.
And he dwelt in the desert of Paran, —and his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.
22 A i taua wa ano ka korero a Apimereke raua ko Pikora, ko te rangatira o tana ope, ki a Aperahama, ka mea, Na kei a koe te Atua i nga mea katoa e mea ai koe:
And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech, with Phicol chieftain of his host, spake unto Abraham, saying, —God, is with thee in all that, thou art doing.
23 Tena oatitia mai te Atua ki ahau, e kore koe e teka ki ahau, ki taku tama, ki te tama ranei a taku tama; engari ka rite ki te aroha i whakaputaina e ahau ki a koe tau mahi ki ahau, ki te whenua ano hoki i noho nei koe.
Now, therefore, swear to me by God, here, that thou wilt not deal falsely by me, nor by mine offspring, nor by my descendants, —according to the lovingkindness wherewith I have dealt with thee, shalt thou deal with me, and with the land wherein thou hast sojourned.
24 Na ka mea a Aperahama, Ka oati ahau.
And Abraham said, I, will swear.
25 Na ka whakawa a Aperahama i a Apimereke mo tetahi puna wai i murua e nga tangata a Apimereke.
But Abraham reproved Abimelech, —on account of the well of water, which the servants of Abimelech had seized.
26 Na ka mea a Apimereke, Kahore ahau e mohio na wai ranei tenei mahi: kihai hoki koe i korero mai ki ahau, a kihai ahau i rongo, no tenei ra tonu.
And Abimelech said, I know not, who hath done this thing, —nor hast even thou, ever told me, nor have even I, ever heard, save to-day.
27 Na ka tikina e Aperahama he hipi, he kau, ka hoatu ki a Apimereke; na ka whakarite kawenata raua.
And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave to Abimelech, —and they two solemnised a covenant
28 Na ka wehea e Aperahama ki tahaki e whitu nga reme uha o nga hipi.
So then Abraham set seven young sheep of the flock by them-selves,
29 A ka mea a Apimereke ki a Aperahama, He aha te tikanga o enei reme uha e whitu i wehea nei e koe ki tahaki?
And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What, then mean these seven young sheep here, which thou hast set by themselves?
30 Ka mea ia, Ko enei reme uha e whitu me tango e koe i toku ringa, kia ai enei mea hei whakaatu maku, naku i keri tenei poka.
And he said, The seven young sheep, shalt thou take at my hand, —that they may serve as my witness, that I digged this well.
31 Na reira i huaina ai e ia taua wahi ko Peerehepa; no raua hoki oati ki reira.
On this account, was the name of that place called Beer-sheba ["oath well"], —because there, had they two sworn.
32 Heoi whakaritea ana e raua te kawenata i Peerehepa: a ka whakatika a Apimereke raua ko Pikora, ko te rangatira o tana ope, a hoki ana ki te whenua o nga Pirihitini.
And when they had solemnised a covenant in Beer-sheba, —then arose Abimelech, with Phicol chief of his host, and returned unto the land of the Philistines.
33 Na ka whakatokia e Aperahama he rakau, he tamarihi, ki Peerehepa, a ka karanga i reira ki te ingoa o Ihowa, o te Atua ora tonu.
Then planted he a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, —and called there on the name of Yahweh the age-abiding GOD.
34 A ka noho a Aperahama ki te whenua o nga Pirihitini mo nga ra maha.
So Abraham sojourned in the land of the Philistines many days.
