VULGATAKING JAMES BIBLE
1 Igitur Sarai, uxor Abram, non genuerat liberos : sed habens ancillam ægyptiam nomine Agar,1 Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
2 dixit marito suo : Ecce, conclusit me Dominus, ne parerem. Ingredere ad ancillam meam, si forte saltem ex illa suscipiam filios. Cumque ille acquiesceret deprecanti,2 And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.
3 tulit Agar ægyptiam ancillam suam post annos decem quam habitare c?perant in terra Chanaan : et dedit eam viro suo uxorem.3 And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.
4 Qui ingressus est ad eam. At illa concepisse se videns, despexit dominam suam.4 And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
5 Dixitque Sarai ad Abram : Inique agis contra me : ego dedi ancillam meam in sinum tuum, quæ videns quod conceperit, despectui me habet : judicet Dominus inter me et te.5 And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.
6 Cui respondens Abram : Ecce, ait, ancilla tua in manu tua est, utere ea ut libet. Affligente igitur eam Sarai, fugam iniit.6 But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thy hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.
7 Cumque invenisset eam angelus Domini juxta fontem aquæ in solitudine, qui est in via Sur in deserto,7 And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.
8 dixit ad illam : Agar ancilla Sarai, unde venis ? et quo vadis ? Quæ respondit : A facie Sarai dominæ meæ ego fugio.8 And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.
9 Dixitque ei angelus Domini : Revertere ad dominam tuam, et humiliare sub manu illius.9 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.
10 Et rursum : Multiplicans, inquit, multiplicabo semen tuum, et non numerabitur præ multitudine.10 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.
11 Ac deinceps : Ecce, ait, concepisti, et paries filium : vocabisque nomen ejus Ismaël, eo quod audierit Dominus afflictionem tuam.11 And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child, and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.
12 Hic erit ferus homo : manus ejus contra omnes, et manus omnium contra eum : et e regione universorum fratrum suorum figet tabernacula.12 And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.
13 Vocavit autem nomen Domini qui loquebatur ad eam : Tu Deus qui vidisti me. Dixit enim : Profecto hic vidi posteriora videntis me.13 And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?
14 Propterea appellavit puteum illum Puteum viventis et videntis me. Ipse est inter Cades et Barad.14 Wherefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
15 Peperitque Agar Abræ filium : qui vocavit nomen ejus Ismaël.15 And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael.
16 Octoginta et sex annorum erat Abram quando peperit ei Agar Ismaëlem.16 And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.
