UGenesisi 16

1 USarayi umka-Abhrama wayengamzalelanga bantwana. Kodwa wayelencekukazi yomGibhithe eyayithiwa nguHagari;

And Sarai [the] wife of Abram not she had borne children to him and [belonged] to her a maidservant Egyptian and name her [was] Hagar.

2 ngakho uSarayi wathi ku-Abhrama, “UThixo ungincitshile abantwana. Hamba, wembathe lencekukazi yami; mhlawumbe lami ngingaba lendlu ngaye.” U-Abhrama wavuma kulokho okwakutshiwo nguSarayi.

And she said Sarai to Abram here! please he has restrained me Yahweh from bearing children go please into maidservant my perhaps I will be built up (from her *LBH(a)*) and he listened Abram to [the] voice of Sarai.

3 Ngakho kwathi u-Abhrama esehlale eKhenani okweminyaka elitshumi, uSarayi umkakhe wathatha incekukazi yakhe yomGibhithe uHagari wamupha indoda yakhe ukuba ngumkayo.

And she took Sarai [the] wife of Abram Hagar the Egyptian maidservant her from [the] end of ten years of [the] dwelling of Abram in [the] land of Canaan and she gave her to Abram husband her of him to a wife.

4 U-Abhrama wambatha loHagari, wazithwala. Wathi esezibona esezithwele, waseqalisa ukweyisa inkosikazi yakhe.

And he went into Hagar and she conceived and she saw that she had conceived and she became insignificant mistress her in view her.

5 USarayi wasesithi ku-Abhrama, “Ngumlandu wakho ukuze ngihlupheke kangaka. Incekukazi yami ngayethula ezandleni zakho, kodwa ithi ngoba isisazi ukuthi isizithwele isingeyisa. Sengathi uThixo angahlulela phakathi kwami lawe.”

And she said Sarai to Abram injustice my [is] on you I I put maidservant my in bosom your and she has seen that she had conceived and I have become insignificant in view her may he judge Yahweh between me and between you.

6 U-Abhrama wathi, “Incekukazi yakho isezandleni zakho. Yenza lokho obona kufanele ngayo.” USarayi wasemphatha kubi uHagari; wacina embalekela.

And he said Abram to Sarai there! maidservant your [is] in hand your do to her the good in view your and she afflicted her Sarai and she fled from before her.

7 Ingilosi kaThixo yamfumana uHagari eduze komthombo enkangala; kwakungumthombo oseceleni kwendlela eya eShuri.

And he found her [the] angel of Yahweh at [the] spring of water in the wilderness at the spring on [the] way of Shur.

8 Yathi, “Hagari, ncekukazi kaSarayi, uvela ngaphi njalo uya ngaphi?” Waphendula wathi, “Ngibalekela inkosikazi yami, uSarayi.”

And he said O Hagar [the] maidservant of Sarai where? from this have you come and where? are you going and she said from before Sarai mistress my I [am] fleeing.

9 Ngakho ingilosi kaThixo yamtshela yathi, “Buyela enkosikazini yakho ufike uyilalele.”

And he said to her [the] angel of Yahweh return to mistress your and humble yourself under hands her.

10 Ingilosi kaThixo yengeza yathi, “Ngizakwandisa izizukulwane zakho zibe zinengi okungelakubalwa.”

And he said to her [the] angel of Yahweh certainly I will increase offspring your and not it will be counted from multitude.

11 Ingilosi kaThixo yaphinda yathi kuye: “Khathesi usuzithwele njalo uzabusiswa ngendodana. Kumele uyethe uthi ngu-Ishumayeli, ngoba uThixo usekuzwile ukukhala kwakho.

And he said to her [the] angel of Yahweh here you [are] pregnant and you will bear a son and you will call name his Ishmael for he has listened Yahweh to affliction your.

12 Uzakuba yindoda engubabhemi weganga; isandla sakhe sizaxabana labantu bonke lesandla somuntu wonke sixabane laye, njalo uzaphila ngenzondano labafowabo bonke.”

And he he will be a wild donkey of a man hand his [will be] on everyone and [the] hand of everyone [will be] on him and on [the] face of all brothers his he will dwell.

13 UThixo owakhuluma laye wamutha lelibizo elithi: “UnguNkulunkulu ongibonayo,” ngoba wathi, “Manje sengimbonile lowo ongibonayo.”

And she called [the] name of Yahweh who spoke to her you [are] a God of seeing for she said ¿ also here have I seen [the] back of [the] [one who] sees me.

14 Yikho-nje umthombo lowo wabizwa ngokuthi yiBheri-Lahayi-Royi; ulokhu usekhona, phakathi kweKhadeshi leBheredi.

There-fore someone called the well Beer Lahai Roi there! [it is] between Kadesh and between Bered.

15 Ngakho uHagari wazalela u-Abhrama indodana, u-Abhrama wamutha ibizo lokuthi ngu-Ishumayeli.

And she bore Hagar to Abram a son and he called Abram [the] name of son his whom she had borne Hagar Ishmael.

16 U-Abhrama wayeleminyaka yokuzalwa engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lesithupha lapho uHagari emzalela u-Ishumayeli.

And Abram [was] a son of eighty year[s] and six years when bore Hagar Ishmael to Abram.
