Genesis 16
1 Now Sarai, Abram's wife, bore him no children, but she had an Egyptian servant whose name was Hagar.
Igitur Sarai, uxor Abram, non genuerat liberos: sed habens ancillam Ægyptiam nomine Agar,
2 Sarai said to Abram, "Look now, God has prevented me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her." Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.
dixit marito suo: Ecce, conclusit me Dominus, ne parerem: ingredere ad ancillam meam, si forte saltem ex illa suscipiam filios. Cumque ille acquiesceret deprecanti,
3 So Sarai, Abram's wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.
tulit Agar Ægyptiam ancillam suam post annos decem quam habitare cœperant in terra Chanaan: et dedit eam viro suo uxorem.
4 He slept with Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
Qui ingressus est ad eam. At illa concepisse se videns, despexit dominam suam.
5 Sarai said to Abram, "This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. God judge between me and you."
Dixitque Sarai ad Abram: Inique agis contra me: ego dedi ancillam meam in sinum tuum, quæ videns quod conceperit, despectui me habet. Iudicet Dominus inter me, et te.
6 But Abram said to Sarai, "Look, your servant is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your sight." Sarai dealt harshly with her, so she fled from her presence.
Cui respondens Abram: Ecce, ait, ancilla tua in manu tua est, utere ea ut libet. Affligente igitur eam Sarai, fugam iniit.
7 And the angel of God found her by a spring of water in the desert, by the spring on the way to Shur.
Cumque invenisset eam Angelus Domini iuxta fontem aquæ in solitudine, qui est in via Sur in deserto,
8 And he said, "Hagar, servant of Sarai, where did you come from, and where are you going?" And she said, "I am running away from the presence of my mistress Sarai."
dixit ad illam: Agar ancilla Sarai, unde venis? et quo vadis? Quæ respondit: A facie Sarai dominæ meæ ego fugio.
9 The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to her authority."
Dixitque ei Angelus Domini: Revertere ad dominam tuam, et humiliare sub manu illius.
10 The angel of the LORD said to her, "I will greatly multiply your descendants, so that they will be too numerous to count."
Et rursum: Multiplicans, inquit, multiplicabo semen tuum, et non numerabitur præ multitudine.
11 Then the angel of God said to her, "Look, you are with child, and will bear a son. You are to name him Ishmael, because God has heard your affliction.
Ac deinceps: Ecce, ait, concepisti, et paries filium: vocabisque nomen eius Ismael, eo quod audierit Dominus afflictionem tuam.
12 He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him. And he will live away from all of his brothers."
Hic erit ferus homo: manus eius contra omnes, et manus omnium contra eum: et e regione universorum fratrum suorum figet tabernacula.
13 And she called his name, the one who spoke to her, "You are El Roi," for she said, "Here I have seen the one who sees me."
Vocavit autem nomen Domini qui loquebatur ad eam: Tu Deus qui vidisti me. Dixit enim: Profecto hic vidi posteriora videntis me.
14 Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Look, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
Propterea appellavit puteum illum, Puteum viventis et videntis me. Ipse est inter Cades et Barad.
15 Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
Peperitque Agar Abræ filium: qui vocavit nomen eius Ismael.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
Octoginta et sex annorum erat Abram quando peperit ei Agar Ismaelem.
