Genesis 16

1 Sarai, mutan kial Abram, el tiana isus tulik nu sel Abram. Tusruktu oasr mutan kulansap lal, mutan fusr Egypt se pangpang Hagar.

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

2 Ouinge Sarai el fahk nu sel Abram, “LEUM GOD El tia lela in oasr tulik nutik. Kom ku tia tari ona yurin mutan kulansap luk? Sahp el ac ku in aolyula oswela sie tulik ah.” Abram el insese nu ke ma Sarai el fahk nu sel.

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 Ke ma inge Sarai el eisalang Hagar nu sel Abram tuh elan mutan kulansap kial. (Ma se inge sikyak tukun Abram el muta yac singoul in acn Canaan.)

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 Abram el ona yorol Hagar, ac el pitutuyak. Ke Hagar el etauk lah el pitutu, el inse fulatak ac kwaselak Sarai.

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 Sarai el fahk nu sel Abram, “Kom pa pwanang Hagar el srungayu uh. Nga tuh sifacna eisalot nu sum, tuh tukunna el konauk lah el pitutu ah, el nuna kwaseyu na. Lela LEUM GOD Elan aksuwosye lah su kac pwaye se uh — kom ku nga!”

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 Abram el topuk ac fahk, “Lungse na lom. Kom na pa nununkal an. Oru na ma kom lungse oru nu sel an.” Ouinge Sarai el oru arulana upa nu sel Hagar, pwanang Hagar el kaingla.

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 Lipufan lun LEUM GOD el sonol Hagar sisken sie unon in kof yen mwesis inkanek nu Shur

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 ac fahk, “Hagar, mutan kulansap lal Sarai, kom tuku oya me, ac kom ac som nu ya?” Ac Hagar el fahk, “Nga kaingla liki mutan kacto luk.”

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 Na lipufan sac fahk, “Folokla nu yorol ac kulansap na nu sel.”

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

10 Na lipufan sac sifilpa fahk, “Nga ac fah arulana akpusye fwilin tulik nutum, ac wangin sie mwet ac ku in oakalosla.

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

11 Kom ac fah oswela wen se, ac kom fah sang inel Ishmael, mweyen LEUM GOD El lipsrala pusren tung ac asor lom.

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 Tusruktu wen nutum el ac fah moul oana donkey lemnak soko. El ac fah lain mwet nukewa, ac mwet nukewa ac fah lainul. El ac fah muta srengla liki sou lal nukewa.

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 Hagar el siyuk sel sifacna, “Ku pwayena lah ngan liye God ac moul na in srumun kac?” Ouinge el pangon LEUM GOD su sramsram nu sel “Sie God Su Liye.”

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 Pa inge sripa se oru mwet uh pangon lufin kof se inmasrlon Kadesh ac Bered, “Lufin Kof Lun El Su Moul Ac Liyeyu.”

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

15 Hagar el oswela wen se nu sel Abram, ac Abram el sang inel Ishmael.

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

16 Abram el yac oalngoul onkosr ke pacl sac.

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