UGenesisi 21
1 INkosi yasimhambela uSara njengokukhuluma kwayo, njalo iNkosi yenza kuSara njengoba yayitshilo.
The lorde visyted Sara as he had sayde and dyd vnto her acordynge as he had spoken.
2 USara wasethatha isisu, wamzalela indodana uAbrahama ebudaleni bakhe, ngesikhathi esimisiweyo uNkulunkulu abesitshilo kuye.
And Sara was with childe and bare Abraha a sonne in his olde age euen the same season which the LORde had appoynted.
3 UAbrahama wasesitha ibizo lendodana yakhe, eyazalelwa yena, uSara amzalela yona, wathi nguIsaka.
And Abraham called his sonnes name that was borne vnto him which Sara bare him Isaac:
4 UAbrahama wasesoka uIsaka indodana yakhe isilensuku eziyisificaminwembili, njengoba uNkulunkulu wamlaya.
and Abra circucysed Isaac his sone whe he was. viij. dayes olde as God commaunded him
5 Njalo uAbrahama wayeleminyaka elikhulu lapho ezalelwa uIsaka indodana yakhe.
And Abraha was an hundred yere olde when his sonne Isaac was borne vnto him.
6 USara wasesithi: UNkulunkulu ungenzele uhleko, wonke ozwayo uzahleka lami.
And Sara sayde: God hath made me a laughinge stocke: for all yt heare will laugh at me
7 Wathi futhi: Ngubani obengatsho kuAbrahama ukuthi: USara uzamunyisa abantwana? Ngoba ngimzalele indodana ebudaleni bakhe.
She sayde also: who wolde haue sayde vnto Abraham that Sara shulde haue geuen childern sucke or yt I shulde haue borne him a sonne in his olde age:
8 Umntwana wakhula, walunyulwa. UAbrahama wasesenza idili elikhulu mhla uIsaka elunyulwa.
The childe grewe and was wened and Abraham made a great feast the same daye that Isaac was wened.
9 USara wasebona indodana kaHagari umGibhithekazi ayeyizalele uAbrahama ikloloda.
Sara sawe the sonne of Hagar the Egiptian which she had borne vnto Abraham a mockynge.
10 Ngakho wathi kuAbrahama: Xotsha lesisigqilikazi lendodana yaso; ngoba indodana yalesisigqilikazi kayiyikudla ilifa kanye lendodana yami, kanye loIsaka.
Then she sayde vnto Abraham: put awaye this bondemayde and hyr sonne: for the sonne of this bondwoman shall not be heyre with my sonne Isaac:
11 Lalelilizwi laba libi kakhulu emehlweni kaAbrahama, ngenxa yendodana yakhe.
But the wordes semed verey greavous in Abrahams syghte because of his sonne.
12 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kuAbrahama: Kakungabi kubi emehlweni akho, ngenxa yomfana langenxa yesigqilikazi sakho; konke uSara azakutsho kuwe, lalela ilizwi lakhe, ngoba kuIsaka inzalo yakho izabizwa.
Than the LORde sayde vnto Abraham: let it not be greavous vnto the because of the ladd and of thy bondmayde: But in all that Sara hath saide vnto the heare hir voyce for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
13 Kodwa lendodana yesigqilikazi ngizayenza ibe yisizwe, ngoba iyinzalo yakho.
Moreouer of the sonne of the Bondwoman will I make a nation because he is thy seed.
14 Ngakho uAbrahama wavuka ekuseni kakhulu, wathatha isinkwa lesigxingi samanzi, wakunika uHagari, ekubeka emahlombe akhe, lomntwana, wamyekela wahamba. Wasehamba wazula enkangala iBherishebha.
And Abraham rose vp early in the mornyng and toke brede and a bottell with water and gaue it vnto Hagar puttynge it on hir shulders wyth the lad also and sent her awaye. And she departed and wadred vpp and doune in the wyldernes of Berseba.
15 Amanzi esephelile esigxingini waphosela umntwana phansi kwesinye sezihlahlakazana.
When the water was spent that was in the botell she cast the lad vnder a bush
16 Wasehamba wahlala phansi maqondana laye, esuka kuye khatshanyana, okungaba yikutshoka ngedandili; ngoba wathi: Kangingaboni ukufa komntwana. Wahlala maqondana laye, waphakamisa ilizwi lakhe wakhala inyembezi.
and went and satt her out of syghte a great waye as it were a bowshote off: For she sayde: I will not se the lad dye. And she satt doune out of syghte and lyfte vp hyr voyce and wepte.
17 UNkulunkulu wasesizwa ilizwi lomfana. Yasimemeza ingilosi kaNkulunkulu kuHagari isemazulwini, yathi kuye: Ulani, Hagari? Ungesabi, ngoba uNkulunkulu ulizwile ilizwi lomfana lapho akhona.
And God herde the voyce of the childe. And the angell of God called Hagar out of heaven and sayde vnto her: What ayleth the Hagar? Feare not for God hath herde the voyce of the childe where he lyeth.
18 Sukuma, uphakamise umfana, umbambe ngesandla sakho; ngoba ngizamenza abe yisizwe esikhulu.
Aryse and lyfte vp the lad and take hym in thy hande for I will make off him a greate people.
19 UNkulunkulu wasevula amehlo akhe, njalo wabona umthombo wamanzi; wahamba, wagcwalisa isigxingi ngamanzi, wamnathisa umfana.
And God opened hir eyes and she sawe a well of water. And she went and fylled the bottell with water and gaue the boye drynke.
20 Njalo uNkulunkulu waba lomfana, wakhula, wahlala enkangala, waba ngumtshoki.
And God was wyth the lad and he grewe and dweld in the wildernesse and became an archer.
21 Wahlala enkangala iParani; unina wasemthathela umfazi elizweni leGibhithe.
And he dweld in the wyldernesse of Pharan. And hys mother gott him a wyfe out of the land of Egypte.
22 Kwasekusithi ngalesosikhathi uAbhimeleki loFikoli, induna yebutho yakhe, wakhuluma kuAbrahama wathi: UNkulunkulu ulawe kukho konke okwenzayo.
And it chaunced the same season that Abimelech and Phicoll his chefe captayne spake vnto Abraham saynge: God is wyth the in all that thou doist.
23 Ngakho-ke funga kimi lapha ngoNkulunkulu ukuthi kawuyikungikhohlisa mina kumbe indodana yami kumbe izizukulwana zami; njengomusa engikwenzele wona, yenza kimi, lelizweni ohlala kilo njengowemzini.
Now therfore swere vnto me even here by God that thou wylt not hurt me nor my childern nor my childerns childern. But that thou shalt deale with me and the contre where thou art a straunger acordynge vnto the kyndnesse that I haue shewed the.
24 UAbrahama wasesithi: Mina ngizafunga.
Then sayde Abraham: I wyll swere.
25 Kodwa uAbrahama wamsola uAbhimeleki ngenxa yomthombo wamanzi ebeziwuphangile izinceku zikaAbhimeleki.
And Abraham rebuked Abimelech for a well of water which Abimelech servauntes had taken awaye.
26 UAbhimeleki wasesithi: Angazi owenze le into; njalo lawe kawungitshelanga, futhi lami kangizwanga ngakho, ngaphandle kwalamuhla.
And Abimelech answered I wyst not who dyd it: Also thou toldest me not nether herde I of it but this daye.
27 UAbrahama wasethatha izimvu lenkomo, wazinika uAbhimeleki; njalo bobabili benza isivumelwano.
And Abraham toke shepe and oxen and gaue them vnto Abimelech. And they made both of them a bonde together.
28 UAbrahama wabeka amawundlukazi omhlambi ayisikhombisa wodwa.
And Abraham sett vij. lambes by them selues.
29 UAbhimeleki wasesithi kuAbrahama: Ayini lapha lamawundlukazi ayisikhombisa owabeke wodwa?
And Abimelech sayde vnto Abraham: what meane these. vij. lamdes which thou hast sett by them selues.
30 Wasesithi: Ngoba uzakwemukela esandleni sami amawundlukazi ayisikhombisa, ukuze abe yibufakazi kimi bokuthi lumthombo ngiwugebhile.
And he answered: vij. lambes shalt thou take of my hande that it maye be a wytnesse vnto me that I haue dygged this well:
31 Ngakho wabiza leyondawo ngokuthi yiBherishebha, ngoba lapho bafunga bobabili.
Wherfore the place is called Berseba because they sware both of them.
32 Ngakho benza isivumelwano eBherishebha. UAbhimeleki wasesukuma, loFikoli induna yebutho lakhe, babuyela elizweni lamaFilisti.
Thus made they a bonde to gether at Berseba. Than Abimelech and Phicoll his chefe captayne rose vp and turned agayne vnto the lande of the Philistines.
33 Wasehlanyela isihlahla setamarisiki eBherishebha wabiza khona ibizo leNkosi, uNkulunkulu olaphakade.
And Abraham planted a wodd in Berseba and called there on the name of the LORde the everlastynge God:
34 UAbrahama wasehlala njengowezizwe elizweni lamaFilisti insuku ezinengi.
and dwelt in the Phelistinlade alonge season
