1 Kisha Sarai mke wa Abram, alikuwa hajamzalia mtoto, lakini alikuwa na mtumishi wa kike, Mmisri ambaye jina lake aliitwa Hajiri.
Therfor Sarai, wijf of Abram, hadde not gendrid fre children; but sche hadde a seruauntesse of Egipt, Agar bi name, and seide to hir hosebonde, Lo!
2 Kwa hiyo Sarai akamwambia Abram, “Tazama, Yahwe hajanifanya mimi kuwa na watoto. Nenda na ulale na mtumishi wangu. Ili kwamba niweze kupata watoto kupitia yeye.” Abram akasikiliza sauti ya Sarai.
the Lord hath closid me, that Y schulde not bere child; entre thou to my seruauntesse, if in hap Y schal take children, nameli of hir. And whanne he assentide to hir preiynge, sche took Agar Egipcian,
3 Ilikuwa baada ya Abram kuishi miaka kumi katika nchi ya Kanaani ndipo Sarai, mke wa Abram, alimtoa Hajiri yule mmisri mtumishi wake kwa mume wake awe kama mke wake.
hir seruauntesse, after ten yeer aftir that thei begunne to enhabite in the lond of Chanaan, and sche yaf Agar wiif to hir hosebonde.
4 Kwa hiyo akawa na mahusiano na Hajiri, na akabeba mimba. Na alipoona kuwa amebeba mimba, akamdharau bibi yake.
And Abram entride to Agar; and Agar seiy that sche hadde conseyued, and sche dispiside hir ladi.
5 Kisha Sarai akamwambia Abram, “Jambo hili baya kwangu ni kwa sababu yako. Nilimtoa mtumishi wangu wa kike katika kumbatio lako. Na alipoona kuwa amebeba mimba, nilidharaulika machoni pake. Na sasa acha Yahwe aamuwe kati yangu na wewe.”
And Saray seide to Abram, Thou doist wickidli ayens me; I yaf my seruauntesse in to thi bosum, which seeth, that sche conseyuede, and dispisith me; the Lord deme betwixe me and thee.
6 Lakini Abram akamwambia Sarai, “Tazama, hapa, mtumishi wako yuko katika uwezo wako, fanya unachofikiri ni kizuri sana kwake.” Kwa hiyo Sarai akakabiliana naye kwa ukatili, na akatoroka.
And Abram answerde and seide to hir, Lo! thi seruauntesse is in thin hond; vse thou hir as `it likith. Therfor for Sarai turmentide hir, sche fledde awei.
7 Malaika wa Yahwe akamkuta karibu na chemichemi ya maji katika jangwa, chemichemi iliyo katika njia kuelekea Shuri.
And whanne the aungel of the Lord hadde founde hir bisidis a welle of watir in wildernesse, which welle is in the weie of Sur in deseert,
8 Akasema, Hajiri, mtumishi wa Sarai, umetoka wapi na unakwenda wapi?” Na akasema, ninamtoroka bibi yangu Sarai.”
he seide to hir, Fro whennus comest thou Agar, the seruauntesse of Sarai, and whidur goist thou? Which answerde, Y fle fro the face of Sarai my ladi.
9 Malaika wa Yahwe akamwambia, “Rudi kwa bibi yako, na unyenyekee chini ya mamlaka yake.”
And the aungel of the Lord seide to hir, Turne thou ayen to thi ladi, and be thou mekid vndur hir hondis.
10 Kisha Malaika wa Yahwe akamwambia, “Nitazidisha uzao wako maradufu, kiasi kwamba watakuwa wengi wasioweza kuhesabika.”
And eft he seide, Y multipliynge schal multiplie thi seed, and it schal not be noumbrid for multitude.
11 Malaika wa Yahwe pia akamwambia, “Tazama, wewe unamimba, na utazaa mtoto kiume, na utamwita jina lake Ishmaeli, kwasabab Yahwe amesikia mateso yako.
And aftirward he seide, Lo! thou hast conseyued, and thou schalt bere a sone, and thou schalt clepe his name Ismael, for the Lord hath herd thi turment;
12 Atakuwa punda mwitu wa mtu. Atakuwa adui dhidi ya kila mtu, na kila mtu atakuwa adui yake, na ataishi kando na ndugu zake wote.”
this schal be a wielde man; his hond schal be ayens alle men, and the hondis of alle men schulen be ayens him; and he schal sette tabernaclis euene ayens alle his britheren.
13 Kisha akamwita jina hili Yahwe aliye zungumza naye, “Wewe ni Mungu unionaye mimi,” kwa kuwa alisema, “je ninaendelea kweli kuona, hata baada ya kuwa ameniona?”
Forsothe Agar clepide the name of the Lord that spak to hir, Thou God that seiyest me; for sche seide, Forsothe here Y seiy the hynderere thingis of him that siy me.
14 Kwa hiyo kisima kiliitwa Beerlahairori; Tazama, kiko kati ya Kadeshi na Beredi.
Therfor sche clepide thilke pit, the pit of hym that lyueth and seeth me; thilk pit is bitwixe Cades and Barad.
15 Hajiri akamzalia Abram mwana wa kiume, na Abram akamwita mwanawe, ambaye Hajiri amemzaa jina, Ishmaeli.
And Agar childide a sone to Abram, which clepide his name Ismael.
16 Abram alikuwa na umri wa miaka themanini na sita wakati Hajiri alipomzaa Ishmaeli kwa Abram.
Abram was of `eiyti yeere and sixe, whanne Agar childide Ysmael to hym.
