< Genesis 21 >

1 Now the LORD attended to Sarah as He had said, and the LORD did for Sarah what He had promised.
Ary Jehovah namangy an’ i Saraha araka ilay efa nolazainy, ary dia nataon’ i Jehovah tamin’ i Saraha araka ilay efa noteneniny.
2 So Sarah conceived and bore a son to Abraham in his old age, at the very time God had promised.
Dia nanan’ anaka Saraha ka niteraka zazalahy tamin’ i Abrahama, rehefa antitra izy, tamin’ ny fotoana izay efa nolazain’ Andriamanitra taminy.
3 And Abraham gave the name Isaac to the son Sarah bore to him.
Ary ny anaran’ ny zanany izay teraka, ilay naterak’ i Saraha taminy dia nataon’ i Abrahama hoe Isaka.
4 When his son Isaac was eight days old, Abraham circumcised him, as God had commanded him.
Dia noforan’ i Abrahama Isaka zanany, rehefa teraka havaloana izy, araka izay efa nandidian’ Andriamanitra azy.
5 Abraham was a hundred years old when his son Isaac was born to him.
Ary efa zato taona Abrahama, raha niteraka an’ i Isaka zanany izy.
6 Then Sarah said, “God has made me laugh, and everyone who hears of this will laugh with me.”
Ary hoy Saraha: Efa nampihomehezin’ Andriamanitra aho; izay rehetra mandre dia hiara-mihomehy amiko.
7 She added, “Who would have told Abraham that Sarah would nurse children? Yet I have borne him a son in his old age.”
Ary hoy koa izy: Nampoizin’ iza akory moa no hilaza amin’ i Abrahama fa hampinono zaza Saraha? kanjo efa niteraka zazalahy taminy aho, rehefa antitra izy.
8 So the child grew and was weaned, and Abraham held a great feast on the day Isaac was weaned.
Ary rehefa lehibe ny zaza, dia notazana; ary Abrahama nanao fanasana lehibe tamin’ ny andro nanotazana an’ Isaka.
9 But Sarah saw that the son whom Hagar the Egyptian had borne to Abraham was mocking her son,
Ary Saraha nahita fa nihomehy ny zanak’ i Hagara Egyptiana, izay efa naterany tamin’ i Abrahama.
10 and she said to Abraham, “Expel the slave woman and her son, for the slave woman’s son will never share in the inheritance with my son Isaac!”
Dia hoy izy tamin’ i Abrahama: Roahy io andevovavy io sy ny zanany; fa ny zanak’ io andevovavy io tsy hiray lova amin’ ny zanako, dia amin’ Isaka.
11 Now this matter distressed Abraham greatly because it concerned his son Ishmael.
Fa ratsy teo imason’ i Abrahama indrindra izany teny izany noho ny amin’ ny zanany.
12 But God said to Abraham, “Do not be distressed about the boy and your maidservant. Listen to everything that Sarah tells you, for through Isaac your offspring will be reckoned.
Ary hoy Andriamanitra tamin’ i Abrahama: Aoka tsy ho ratsy eo imasonao ny amin’ ny zaza sy ny andevovavinao; fa izay rehetra lazain’ i Saraha aminao, dia ekeo ny teniny, fa avy amin’ Isaka no hantsoina izay taranaka ho anao.
13 But I will also make a nation of the slave woman’s son, because he is your offspring.”
Nefa ny zanaky ny andevovavy kosa dia hataoko ho firenena, satria terakao ihany izy.
14 Early in the morning, Abraham got up, took bread and a skin of water, put them on Hagar’s shoulders, and sent her away with the boy. She left and wandered in the Wilderness of Beersheba.
Dia nifoha maraina koa Abrahama ka naka mofo sy siny hoditra iray feno rano, ary nomeny an’ i Hagara ka napetrany teo an-tsorony ary natolony azy koa ny zaza, dia nampandehaniny izy mianaka; ary lasa nandeha izy ka nirenireny tany an-efitr’ i Beri-sheba.
15 When the water in the skin was gone, she left the boy under one of the bushes.
Ary rehefa lany ny rano tao amin’ ny siny hoditra, dia nariany teo am-pototry ny hazo kely anankiray ny zaza.
16 Then she went off and sat down nearby, about a bowshot away, for she said, “I cannot bear to watch the boy die!” And as she sat nearby, she lifted up her voice and wept.
Dia lasa izy ka nipetraka terỳ lavidavitra tandrifiny, tokony ho tra-tsipìka; fa hoy izy: Aza mba ho hitako anie izay hahafatesan’ ny zaza. Ary nipetraka tandrifiny izy, dia nanandratra ny feony nitomany.
17 Then God heard the voice of the boy, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven, “What is wrong, Hagar? Do not be afraid, for God has heard the voice of the boy where he lies.
Ary ren’ Andriamanitra ny feon’ ny zaza, dia niantso an’ i Hagara Ilay Anjelin’ Andriamanitra tany an-danitra ka nanao taminy hoe: Inona izato manjo anao, ry Hagara? Aza matahotra, fa efa ren’ Andriamanitra ny feon’ ny zaza eo amin’ ny itoerany.
18 Get up, lift up the boy, and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.”
Mitsangana, areno ny zaza, ka tantano; fa hataoko firenena lehibe izy.
19 Then God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
Dia nampahiratin’ Andriamanitra ny mason’ i Hagara, ka nahita lavaka fantsakana izy; ary lasa izy, dia nameno rano ny siny hoditra ka nampisotro rano ny zaza.
20 And God was with the boy, and he grew up and settled in the wilderness and became a great archer.
Ary nomban’ Andriamanitra ny zaza, dia nitombo izy; ary nonina tany an-efitra izy ka nony efa lehibe dia tonga mpandefa tsipìka.
21 And while he was dwelling in the Wilderness of Paran, his mother got a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
Ary nonina tany an-efitra Parana izy ka nakan’ ny reniny vady avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta izy.
22 At that time Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army said to Abraham, “God is with you in all that you do.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany Abimeleka sy Pikola, komandin’ ny miaramilany, dia niteny tamin’ i Abrahama ka nanao hoe: Omban’ Andriamanitra ianao amin’ izay rehetra ataonao;
23 Now, therefore, swear to me here before God that you will not deal falsely with me or my children or descendants. Show to me and to the country in which you reside the same kindness that I have shown to you.”
koa ankehitriny ianiano amin’ Andriamanitra aho fa tsy hamitaka ahy na ny zanako na ny taranako ianao; fa araka ny soa izay efa nataoko taminao no mba ataovy amiko sy amin’ ny tany izay ivahinianao.
24 And Abraham replied, “I swear it.”
Ary hoy Abrahama: Hianiana ihany aho.
25 But when Abraham complained to Abimelech about a well that Abimelech’s servants had seized,
Ary Abrahama nananatra an’ i Abimeleka noho ny lavaka fantsakana anankiray izay efa nalain’ ny mpanompon’ i Abimeleka an-keriny
26 Abimelech replied, “I do not know who has done this. You did not tell me, so I have not heard about it until today.”
Dia hoy Abimeleka: Tsy fantatro izay nanao izany; fa ianao tsy mbola nanambara tamiko, ary izaho koa tsy mba nahare, raha tsy vao izao.
27 So Abraham brought sheep and cattle and gave them to Abimelech, and the two men made a covenant.
Ary Abrahama naka ondry aman’ osy sy omby, ka nomeny an’ i Abimeleka; dia nanao fanekena izy roa lahy.
28 Abraham separated seven ewe lambs from the flock,
Ary Abrahama nanokana ondrivavikely fito navahana tamin’ ny ondry.
29 and Abimelech asked him, “Why have you set apart these seven ewe lambs?”
Ary hoy Abimeleka tamin’ i Abrahama: Hatao inona ireo ondrivavy kely fito natokanao ireo?
30 He replied, “You are to accept the seven ewe lambs from my hand as my witness that I dug this well.”
Ary hoy izy: Mba horaisinao avy amin’ ny tanako ireo ondrivavy kely fito ireo ho vavolombelona amiko fa izaho nihady io lavaka fantsakana io.
31 So that place was called Beersheba, because it was there that the two of them swore an oath.
Izany no nanaovana io tany io hoe Beri-sheba; satria teo no nianianan’ izy roa lahy.
32 After they had made the covenant at Beersheba, Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army got up and returned to the land of the Philistines.
Dia nanao fanekena tany Beri-sheba izy; ary dia niainga Abimeleka sy Pikola, komandin’ ny miaramilany, ka niverina ho any amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina.
33 And Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and there he called upon the name of the LORD, the Eternal God.
Dia namboly hazo tamariska tany Beri-sheba Abrahama ka tao no niantsoany ny anaran’ i Jehovah, dia Andriamanitra Mandrakizay.
34 And Abraham resided in the land of the Philistines for a long time.
Ary Abrahama nivahiny elaela ihany tany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Filistina.
