Uumama 16
1 Saaraan niitiin Abraam ijoollee isaaf hin deenye turte. Garuu isheen garbittii Aggaar jedhamtu tokko qabdi turte; Aggaaris nama biyya Gibxi turte;
Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, bore him no children. She had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
2 Saaraanis Abraamiin, “Kunoo Waaqayyo ijoollee na dhowwateera. Dhaqiitii garbittii koo wajjin ciisi; tarii ani karaa isheetiin ijoollee nan argadhan taʼaatii” jette. Abraamis waan Sooraan jette fudhate.
Sarai said to Abram, “See now, Yahweh has restrained me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her.” Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
3 Erga Abraam waggaa kudhan Kanaʼaan keessa jiraatee booddee niitiin isaa Saaraan garbittii ishee Aggaar kan nama biyya Gibxi turte sana fuutee akka isheen niitii isaa taatuuf dhirsa isheetiif kennite.
Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.
4 Abraamis Aggaar wajjin ciise; isheenis ni ulfoofte. Yommuu akka ulfoofte of irratti beektetti giiftii ishee tuffachuu jalqabde.
He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
5 Saaraan immoo Abraamiin, “Miidhaa na mudate kanatti situ gaafatama. Garbittii koo anattu bobaa kee jala siif galche; amma garuu isheen akka ulfoofte of irratti beeknaan na tuffatte. Egaa Waaqayyo sii fi ana gidduutti murtii haa kennu” jette.
Sarai said to Abram, “This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. May Yahweh judge between me and you.”
6 Abraamis, “Garbittiin kee keessa harkuma kee jirti; waanuma feete ishee godhi” jedheen. Saaraanis akka malee ishee cunqursite; kanaafuu Aggaar fuula ishee duraa sokkite.
But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your maid is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your eyes.” Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.
7 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo gammoojjii keessatti, burqaa bishaanii tokko biratti Aggaarin arge; burqaan bishaanii sunis karaa Shuuritti geessu irra ture.
Yahweh’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.
8 Ergamaan sunis, “Yaa Aggaar, garbittii Saaraa, ati eessaa dhufte? Eessa dhaquutti jirta?” jedhe. Isheenis, “Giiftii koo Saaraa baqachuuttin jira” jetteen.
He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where did you come from? Where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.”
9 Kana irratti ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun, “Gara giiftii keetiitti deebiʼi; gad of qabiitii isheef buli” jedheen.
Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.”
10 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sunis itti dabalee, “Ani sanyii kee akka malee nan baayʼisa; sababii baayʼina isaatiifis namni tokko iyyuu lakkaaʼuu hin dandaʼu” jedhe.
Yahweh’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”
11 Ergamaan Waaqayyoo sun amma illee akkana isheen jedhe; “Kunoo ati ulfoofteerta; ilmas ni deessa. Maqaa isaas Ishmaaʼeel jedhii moggaasi; Waaqayyo dhiphachuu kee dhagaʼeeraatii.
Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Behold, you are with child, and will bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because Yahweh has heard your affliction.
12 Inni nama akka harree diidaa taʼa; harki isaa nama hunda irratti kaʼa; harki nama hundaas isa irratti kaʼa; obboloota isaa hundaanis jibbamaa jiraata.”
He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. He will live opposed to all of his brothers.”
13 Isheenis maqaa Waaqayyo isheetti dubbate sanaa, “Elrooʼii” jettee waamte. Isheen, “Ani dhugumaan Isa na argu sana argeera” jetteertiitii.
She called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees,” for she said, “Have I even stayed alive after seeing him?”
14 Sababiin boolli bishaanii sun, “Beʼeer Lahaayirooʼii” jedhameefis kanuma. Innis hamma harʼaatti illee Qaadeshii fi Bereed gidduu jira.
Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Aggaaris Abraamiif ilma deesse; Abraamis ilma isheen deesse sana Ishmaaʼeel jedhee moggaase.
Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
16 Yeroo Aggaar Ishmaaʼeelin isaaf deessetti Abraam nama waggaa saddeettamii jaʼaa ture.
Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
