1 واما ساراي امرأة ابرام فلم تلد له. وكانت لها جارية مصرية اسمها هاجر. | 1 Now Sarai, the wife of Abram, had not conceived children. But, having an Egyptian handmaid named Hagar, |
2 فقالت ساراي لابرام هوذا الرب قد امسكني عن الولادة. ادخل على جاريتي. لعلي أرزق منها بنين. فسمع ابرام لقول ساراي. | 2 she said to her husband: “Behold, the Lord has closed me, lest I give birth. Enter to my handmaid, so that perhaps I may receive sons of her at least.” And when he agreed to her supplication, |
3 فاخذت ساراي امرأة ابرام هاجر المصرية جاريتها من بعد عشر سنين لاقامة ابرام في ارض كنعان واعطتها لابرام رجلها زوجة له. | 3 she took Hagar the Egyptian, her handmaid, ten years after they began to live in the land of Canaan, and she gave her to her husband as a wife. |
4 فدخل على هاجر فحبلت. ولما رأت انها حبلت صغرت مولاتها في عينيها. | 4 And he entered to her. But when she saw that she had conceived, she despised her mistress. |
5 فقالت ساراي لابرام ظلمي عليك. انا دفعت جاريتي الى حضنك. فلما رأت انها حبلت صغرت في عينيها. يقضي الرب بيني وبينك. | 5 And Sarai said to Abram: “You have acted unfairly against me. I gave my handmaid into your bosom, who, when she saw that she had conceived, held me in contempt. May the Lord judge between me and you.” |
6 فقال ابرام لساراي هوذا جاريتك في يدك. افعلي بها ما يحسن في عينيك. فاذلّتها ساراي. فهربت من وجهها | 6 Abram responded to her by saying, “Behold, your handmaid is in your hand to treat as it pleases you.” And so, when Sarai afflicted her, she took flight. |
7 فوجدها ملاك الرب على عين الماء في البرية. على العين التي في طريق شور. | 7 And when the Angel of the Lord had found her, near the fountain of water in the wilderness, which is on the way to Shur in the desert, |
8 وقال يا هاجر جارية ساراي من اين أتيت والى اين تذهبين. فقالت انا هاربة من وجه مولاتي ساراي. | 8 he said to her: “Hagar, handmaid of Sarai, where have you come from? And where will you go?” And she answered, “I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.” |
9 فقال لها ملاك الرب ارجعي الى مولاتك واخضعي تحت يديها. | 9 And the Angel of the Lord said to her, “Return to your mistress, and humble yourself under her hand.” |
10 وقال لها ملاك الرب تكثيرا اكثر نسلك فلا يعد من الكثرة. | 10 And again he said, “I will multiply your offspring continuously, and they will not be numbered because of their multitude.” |
11 وقال لها ملاك الرب ها انت حبلى فتلدين ابنا. وتدعين اسمه اسماعيل لان الرب قد سمع لمذلّتك. | 11 But thereafter he said: “Behold, you have conceived, and you will give birth to a son. And you shall call his name Ishmael, because the Lord has heard your affliction. |
12 وانه يكون انسانا وحشيّا. يده على كل واحد ويد كل واحد عليه. وامام جميع اخوته يسكن. | 12 He will be a wild man. His hand will be against all, and all hands will be against him. And he will pitch his tents away from the region of all his brothers.” |
13 فدعت اسم الرب الذي تكلم معها انت ايل رئي. لانها قالت أههنا ايضا رأيت بعد رؤية. | 13 Then she called upon the name of the Lord who had spoken to her: “You are the God who has seen me.” For she said, “Certainly, here I have seen the back of the one who sees me.” |
14 لذلك دعيت البئر بئر لحي رئي. ها هي بين قادش وبارد | 14 Because of this, she called that well: ‘The well of the one who lives and who sees me.’ The same is between Kadesh and Bered. |
15 فولدت هاجر لابرام ابنا. ودعا ابرام اسم ابنه الذي ولدته هاجر اسماعيل. | 15 And Hagar gave birth to a son for Abram, who called his name Ishmael. |
16 وكان ابرام ابن ست وثمانين سنة لما ولدت هاجر اسماعيل لابرام | 16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael for him. |
