創世記 16

1 アブラムの妻サライ子女を生ざりき彼に一人の侍女ありしがエジプト人にして其名をハガルと曰り

Now Sarai, Abram's wife, had given him no children; and she had a servant, a woman of Egypt whose name was Hagar.

2 サライ、アブラムに言けるは視よヱホバわが子を生むことを禁めたまひければ請ふ我が侍女の所に入れ我彼よりして子女を得ることあらんとアブラム、サライの言を聽いれたり

And Sarai said to Abram, See, the Lord has not let me have children; go in to my servant, for I may get a family through her. And Abram did as Sarai said.

3 アブラムの妻サライ其侍女なるエジプト人ハガルを取て之を其夫アブラムに與へて妻となさしめたり是はアブラムがカナンの地に十年住みたる後なりき

So after Abram had been living for ten years in the land of Canaan, Sarai took Hagar, her Egyptian servant, and gave her to Abram for his wife.

4 是においてアブラム、ハガルの所に入るハガル遂に孕みければ己の孕めるを見て其女主を藐視たり

And he went in to Hagar and she became with child, and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for her master's wife.

5 サライ、アブラムに言けるはわが蒙れる害は汝に歸すべし我わが侍女を汝の懷に與へたるに彼己の孕るを見て我を藐視ぐ願はヱホバ我と汝の間の事を鞫きたまへ

And Sarai said to Abram, May my wrong be on you: I gave you my servant for your wife and when she saw that she was with child, she no longer had any respect for me: may the Lord be judge between you and me.

6 アブラム、サライに言けるは視よ汝の侍女は汝の手の中にあり汝の目に善と見ゆる所を彼に爲すべしサライ乃ち彼を苦めければ彼サライの面を避て逃たり

And Abram said, The woman is in your power; do with her whatever seems good to you. And Sarai was cruel to her, so that she went running away from her.

7 ヱホバの使者曠野の泉の旁即ちシユルの路にある泉の旁にて彼に遭ひて

And an angel of the Lord came to her by a fountain of water in the waste land, by the fountain on the way to Shur.

8 言けるはサライの侍女ハガルよ汝何處より來れるや又何處に往や彼言けるは我は女主サライの面をさけて逃るなり

And he said, Hagar, Sarai's servant, where have you come from and where are you going? And she said, I am running away from Sarai, my master's wife.

9 ヱホバの使者彼に言けるは汝の女主の許に返り身を其手に任すべし

And the angel said to her, Go back, and put yourself under her authority.

10 ヱホバの使者又彼に言ひけるは我大に汝の子孫を増し其數を衆多して數ふることあたはざらしめん

And the angel of the Lord said, Your seed will be greatly increased so that it may not be numbered.

11 ヱホバの使者又彼に言けるは汝孕めり男子を生まん其名をイシマエル(神聽知)と名くべしヱホバ汝の艱難を聽知したまへばなり

And the angel of the Lord said, See, you are with child and will give birth to a son, to whom you will give the name Ishmael, because the ears of the Lord were open to your sorrow.

12 彼は野驢馬の如き人とならん其手は諸の人に敵し諸の人の手はこれに敵すべし彼は其諸の兄弟の東に住んと

And he will be like a mountain ass among men; his hand will be against every man and every man's hand against him, and he will keep his place against all his brothers.

13 ハガル己に諭したまへるヱホバの名をアタエルロイ(汝は見たまふ神なり)とよべり彼いふ我視たる後尚生るやと

And to the Lord who was talking with her she gave this name, You are a God who is seen; for she said, Have I not even here in the waste land had a vision of God and am still living?

14 是をもて其井はベエルラハイロイ(我を見る活る者の井)と呼ばる是はカデシとベレデの間にあり

So that fountain was named, Fountain of Life and Vision: it is between Kadesh and Bered.

15 ハガル、アブラムの男子を生めりアブラム、ハガルの生める其子の名をイシマエルと名づけたり

And Hagar gave birth to a child, the son of Abram, to whom Abram gave the name of Ishmael.

16 ハガル、イシマエルをアブラムに生める時アブラムは八十六歳なりき

Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar gave birth to Ishmael.
