Genesis 21
1 And the Lord visited Sara, as he had promised: and fulfilled what he had spoken.
Seyè a fè Sara favè, jan l' te di l' la. Li fè sa l' te pwomèt li a rive vre.
2 And she conceived and bore a son in her old age, at the time that God had foretold her.
Sara vin ansent. Atout li te fin vye granmoun lan, li fè yon pitit gason pou Abraram, nan dat Bondye te di l' la.
3 And Abraham called the name of his son, whom Sara bore him, Isaac.
Abraram rele pitit gason Sara te fè pou li a Izarak.
4 And he circumcised him the eighth day, as God had commanded him,
Ti gason an te gen wit jou lè Abraram sikonsi l', jan Bondye te ba li lòd la.
5 When he was a hundred years old: for at this age of his father was Isaac born.
Abraram te gen santan sou tèt li lè Izarak, pitit li a, te fèt.
6 And Sara said: God hath made a laughter for me: whosoever shall hear of it will laugh with me.
Sara di konsa. Bondye fè m' bagay ki fè m' ri. tout moun ki tande sa pral ri avè m' tou.
7 And again she said: Who would believe that Abraham should hear that Sara gave suck to a son, whom she bore to him in his old age.
Apre sa, li di ankò: -Ki moun ki ta di Abraram yon jou Sara gen pou bay timoun tete? Men, atout li fin vye a, mwen fè yon pitit gason pou li.
8 And the child grew and was weaned: and Abraham made a great feast on the day of his weaning.
Ti gason an grandi, li sevre. Jou yo sevre l' la, Abraram fè yon gwo fèt.
9 And when Sara had seen the son of Agar the Egyptian playing with Isaac her son, she said to Abraham:
Yon jou Izmayèl, pitit Aga, fanm peyi Lejip la te fè pou Abraram lan t'ap jwe ak Izarak, pitit Sara a. Sara wè sa.
10 Cast out this bondwoman, and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with my son Isaac.
Li di Abraram konsa: -Mete sèvant la deyò ansanm ak tout pitit li a, paske pitit sèvant sa a pa gen dwa eritye ak Izarak, pitit mwen an.
11 Abraham took this grievously for his son.
Pawòl sa a te fè Abraram lapenn anpil, paske Izmayèl te pitit li tou.
12 And God said to him: Let it not seem grievous to thee for the boy, and for thy bondwoman: in all that Sara hath said to thee, hearken to her voice: for in Isaac shall thy seed be called.
Men, Bondye di Abraram konsa-Ou pa bezwen pran lapenn pou ti gason an ak pou Aga, sèvant ou a. Ou mèt fè tout sa Sara di ou fè a, paske se Izarak ki pral ba ou pitit pitit mwen pwomèt ou yo.
13 But I will make the son also of the bondwoman a great nation, because he is thy seed.
M'ap bay pitit sèvant lan anpil pitit pitit. M'ap fè l' tounen yon nasyon, paske se pitit ou li ye tou.
14 So Abraham rose up in the morning, and taking bread and a bottle of water, put it upon her shoulder, and delivered the boy, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Bersabee.
Nan denmen Abraram leve bonè, li pran pen ak yon sak an po bèt plen dlo, li bay Aga. Li ede l' mete yo sou tèt li. Li ba li pitit la, li fè l' ale kite kay la. Aga pati, li mache, li mache, jouk li pèdi nan dezè Bècheba a.
15 And when the water in the bottle was spent, she cast the boy under one of the trees that were there.
Lè dlo nan sak la fini, li kite pitit la anba yon touf raje.
16 And she went her way, and sat over against him a great way off as far as a bow can carry, for she said: I will not see the boy die: and sitting over against, she lifted up her voice and wept.
li ale, li chita pi devan, yon bon ti distans, li di nan kè l' -Mwen pa ka rete ap gade pitit mwen an ap mouri konsa. Pandan li chita konsa, pitit la pran rele.
17 And God heard the voice of the boy: and an angel of God called to Agar from heaven, saying: What art thou doing, Agar? fear not: for God hath heard the voice of the boy, from the place wherein he is.
Bondye tande rèl pitit la. Zanj Bondye a rete nan syèl la, li pale ak Aga, li di l' konsa-Sa ou genyen, Aga? Ou pa bezwen pè. Kote Bondye ye a, li tande rèl ti pitit la.
18 Arise, take up the boy, and hold him by the hand: for I will make him a great nation.
Leve non, pran ti pitit la, kenbe l'. M'ap fè pitit pitit li yo tounen yon gwo nasyon.
19 And God opened her eyes: and she saw a well of water, and went and filled the bottle, and gave the boy to drink.
Bondye louvri je Aga. Aga wè yon pi. li ale, li plen sak an po a dlo. Li bay ti pitit la bwè dlo kont kò l'.
20 And God was with him: and he grew, and dwelt in the wilderness, and became a young man, an archer.
Bondye te avèk ti pitit la. Li grandi, li rete nan dezè a. Li te rive konn tire flèch nan banza ak anpil ladrès.
21 And he dwelt in the wilderness of Pharan, and his mother took a wife for him out of the land of Egypt.
Se nan dezè Paran li te rete. Manman l' te chwazi yon madanm pou li nan jenn fi peyi Lejip yo.
22 At the same time Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army said to Abraham: God is with thee in all that thou dost.
Lè sa a, Abimelèk ale ansanm avek Pikòl, kòmandan lame li a, li pale ak Abraram. Li di l' konsa-Bondye avè ou nan tout sa w'ap fè.
23 Swear therefore by God, that thou wilt not hurt me, nor my posterity, nor my stock: but according to the kindness that I have done to thee, thou shalt do to me, and to the land wherein thou hast lived a stranger.
Koulye a, fè sèman, isit la menm, devan Bondye, ou p'ap janm twonpe ni mwen menm, ni pitit mwen yo, ni pitit pitit mwen yo. Mwen te aji byen avè ou. Pwomèt w'ap aji byen avè m' tou, epi w'ap sèvi byen ak tout moun nan peyi kote ou rete a.
24 And Abraham said: I will swear.
Abraram reponn. -M' fè sèman.
25 And he reproved Abimelech for a well of water, which his servants had taken away by force.
Men Abraram te fè Abimelèk repwòch pou yon pi li domestik Abimelèk yo te pran pa fòs.
26 And Abimelech answered: I knew not who did this thing: and thou didst not tell me, and I heard not of it till today.
Abimelèk di l' -Mwen pa konnen ki moun ki fè sa. Ni tou, ou pa t' janm di m' anyen sou sa. Se koulye a m'ap tande koze a.
27 And Abraham took sheep and oxen and gave them to Abimelech: and both of them made a league.
Abraram pran kèk mouton ak kèk bèf li bay Abimelèk. Konsa, yo pase kontra yonn ak lòt.
28 And Abraham set apart seven ewe lambs of the flock.
Abraram pran sèt mouton nan bann mouton l' yo, li mete yo sou kote.
29 And Abimelech said to him: What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set apart?
Abimelèk mande l' -Poukisa ou mete sèt mouton sa yo sou kote.
30 But he said: Thou shalt take seven ewe lambs at my hand: that they may be a testimony for me, that I dug this well.
Abraram reponn li-Asepte sèt mouton sa yo. Si ou asepte yo, sa vle di ou rekonèt devan tout moun se mwen menm ki te fouye pi a.
31 Therefore that place was called Bersabee: because there both of them did swear.
Se poutèt sa yo rele anplasman an Bècheba, paske se la menm yo te sèmante yonn bay lòt.
32 And they made a league for the well of oath.
Se Bècheba yo te pase kontra yonn ak lòt. Apre sa, Abimelèk leve, li tounen nan peyi moun Filisti yo, ansanm ak Pikòl, kòmandan lame li a.
33 And Abimelech, and Phicol the general of his army arose and returned to the land of the Palestines. But Abraham planted a grove in Bersabee, and there called upon the name of the Lord God eternal.
Se la Bècheba Abraram plante yon pye tonmaren. Lèfini li fè sèvis pou Seyè a, Bondye ki la pou tout tan an.
34 And he was a sojourner in the land of the Palestines many days.
Apre sa, Abraram rete kèk lanne ankò nan peyi Filisti a.
