1 Mose 16
1 Saa ɛberɛ yi, na Sarai nwoo ɔba mmaa Abram. Na ɔwɔ Misraimni abaawa bi a wɔfrɛ no Hagar;
USarayi umkaAbrama wayengamzaleli-ke abantwana; wayelencekukazi umGibhithekazi, lebizo layo linguHagari.
2 enti Sarai ka kyerɛɛ Abram sɛ, “Wo ara wonim sɛ Awurade ama mayɛ obonini; manwo ɔba! Mesrɛ wo, kɔ na wo ne mʼabaawa Hagar nkɔda; ebia ɛnam ne so na manya mma.” Abram penee asɛm a Sarai ka kyerɛɛ no no so.
USarayi wasesithi kuAbrama: Khangela-ke, iNkosi ingivalile ukuze ngingazali; ake ungene encekukazini yami, mhlawumbe ngingakhiwa ngayo. UAbrama waselalela ilizwi likaSarayi.
3 Abram tenaa Kanaan asase so mfeɛ edu akyiri no, ne yere Sarai de Misraimni abaawa Hagar no kɔmaa ne kunu no sɛ, ɔnware no.
Ngakho uSarayi umkaAbrama wamthatha uHagari umGibhithe, incekukazi yakhe, ekupheleni kweminyaka elitshumi uAbrama esehlale elizweni leKhanani, wasemnika uAbrama indoda yakhe ukuthi abe ngumkakhe.
4 Abram ne Hagar daeɛ, na ɔnyinsɛneeɛ. Ɛberɛ a Hagar hunuu sɛ wanyinsɛn no, ɔhyɛɛ aseɛ buu nʼawuraa Sarai animtia.
Wasengena kuHagari, wasethatha isisu. Esebonile ukuthi uzithwele, inkosikazi yakhe yasideleleka emehlweni akhe.
5 Enti Sarai ka kyerɛɛ Abram sɛ, “Saa ɔhaw a aba me so yi nyinaa firi wo! Mede mʼabaawa maa wo; afei a wahunu sɛ wanyinsɛn no enti, ɔtiatia mʼanim. Awurade mmu me ne wo ntam atɛn.”
USarayi wasesithi kuAbrama: Ububi bami buphezu kwakho. Mina nginike incekukazi yami esifubeni sakho, ithe isibonile ukuthi izithwele, ngiyadeleleka emehlweni ayo. INkosi kayahlulele phakathi kwami lawe.
6 Nanso, Abram ka kyerɛɛ Sarai sɛ, “Ɔyɛ wʼabaawa. Deɛ wopɛ sɛ wode yɛ no biara, fa yɛ no.” Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, Sarai tanee nʼabaawa Hagar ani, ma ɔdwane firii ne nkyɛn.
UAbrama wasesithi kuSarayi: Khangela, incekukazi yakho isesandleni sakho. Yenza kuyo lokho okuhle emehlweni akho. USarayi waseyiphatha kubi, yasibaleka ebusweni bakhe.
7 Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ hunuu Hagar wɔ nsuo aniwa bi ho wɔ ɛserɛ no so. Na saa nsuo aniwa no da ɛkwan a ɛkɔ kuro bi a wɔfrɛ no Sur no nkyɛn.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasiyifica emthonjeni wamanzi enkangala, emthonjeni endleleni eya eShuri.
8 Ɔbɔfoɔ no bisaa Hagar sɛ, “Sarai abaawa Hagar, wofiri he, na worekɔ he?” Hagar buaa no sɛ, “Meredwane afiri mʼawuraa Sarai nkyɛn.”
Yasisithi: Hagari, ncekukazi kaSarayi, uvela ngaphi, uya ngaphi? Yasisithi: Ngibalekela ubuso bukaSarayi inkosikazi yami.
9 Na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Hagar sɛ, “Sane kɔ wʼawuraa no nkyɛn, na kɔbrɛ wo ho ase ma no.”
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuyo: Buyela enkosikazini yakho, ubusuzehlisela ngaphansi kwezandla zayo.
10 Ɔbɔfoɔ no ka kaa ho sɛ, “Mɛma wʼase afɛe a, wɔkan a, ɛnyɛ yie.”
Ingilosi yeNkosi yathi kuyo futhi: Ngizakwandisa kakhulu inzalo yakho ukuze ingabalwa ngenxa yobunengi.
11 Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no sane ka kyerɛɛ Hagar sɛ, “Woanyinsɛn, na wobɛwo ɔbabarima. Wobɛto no edin Ismael, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade ate wʼamanehunu.
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuyo: Khangela, uzithwele, futhi uzazala indodana, njalo uzayitha ibizo layo uthi nguIshmayeli, ngoba iNkosi izwile ukuhlupheka kwakho.
12 Ɔbɛyɛ sɛ ɛserɛ so afunumu. Ɔbɛtia nnipa nyinaa, na nnipa nyinaa nso bɛtia no; atutupɛ so na ɔne ne nuanom bɛtena.”
Yona-ke izakuba ngumuntu ongubabhemi ongathambanga, isandla sayo simelane labo bonke, lesandla sabo bonke simelane layo; izahlala phambi kobuso babafowabo bonke.
13 Yei akyiri ɔde edin foforɔ maa Awurade. Ɔkaa sɛ, “Mahunu Deɛ ɔhunu me.” Ɛno enti, ɔde edin El-Roi a aseɛ ne “Onyankopɔn a ɔhunu me” no, too no.
Waseyitha iNkosi eyakhuluma laye ibizo lokuthi: Wena Nkulunkulu wokubona. Ngoba wathi: Lapha lami ngimkhangele yini ongibonayo?
14 Ɛno enti na wɔfrɛ nsuo aniwa no sɛ Beer-Lahai-Roi a aseɛ ne “Onyankopɔn Teasefoɔ a ɔhunu me abura.” Ɛda Kades ne Bered ntam bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
Ngakho umthombo wabizwa ngokuthi iBeri-Lahayi-Royi; khangela, uphakathi kweKadeshi leBeredi.
15 Enti Hagar woo ɔbabarima maa Abram. Abram too abɔfra no edin Ismael.
UHagari wasemzalela uAbrama indodana; uAbrama wasesitha ibizo lendodana yakhe, uHagari ayizalayo, wathi nguIshmayeli.
16 Hagar woo Ismael no, na Abram adi mfeɛ aduɔwɔtwe nsia.
Njalo uAbrama wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisificaminwembili lesithupha mhla uHagari emzalela uAbrama uIshmayeli.
