Genesis 16
1 Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, bore him no children. She had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.
Alò, Saraï, madanm Abram nan pa t bay li pitit. Li te gen yon sèvant Ejipsyen ki te rele Agar.
2 Sarai said to Abram, “See now, Yahweh has restrained 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.
Konsa, Saraï te di Abram: “Alò, gade byen, SENYÈ a te anpeche m fè pitit. Souple, al jwenn sèvant mwen an. Petèt mwen kapab vin gen pitit pa li menm.” Epi Abram te koute vwa a Saraï.
3 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.
Apre Abram te viv dis lane nan peyi Canaan, madanm Abram nan, Saraï te pran Agar, sèvant Ejipsyen li an, e te bay li a mari li Abram kòm madanm li.
4 He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.
Li te al jwenn Agar, li te vin ansent, epi lè l te wè ke li te ansent, mètrès li a te vin meprize nan zye li.
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. May Yahweh judge between me and you.”
Konsa, Saraï te di Abram: “Se ou ki gen tò nan bagay sa a. Mwen te bay sèvant mwen an pou li antre nan bra ou, e lè l te wè ke li te vin ansent, mwen te vin meprize nan zye li. Ke SENYÈ a jije antre ou menm avèk mwen.”
6 But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your maid is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your eyes.” Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.
Men Abram te di a Saraï: “Gade byen, sèvant ou anba pouvwa ou. Fè sa ke ou wè ki bon nan zye ou avèk li.” Pou sa, Saraï te rèd avèk li, e li te pran sove ale kite prezans li.
7 Yahweh’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.
Alò zanj lan te twouve li akote yon sous dlo nan savann nan, vè sous la nan wout chemen ki ale Schur la.
8 He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where did you come from? Where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.”
Li te di a Agar, sèvant Saraï a, “Kibò ou sòti, e kibò ou prale?” Epi li te di: “M ap sove ale kite prezans mètrès mwen an, Saraï.”
9 Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.”
Epi zanj SENYÈ a te di li: “Retounen bò kote mètrès ou, e soumèt ou anba otorite l.”
10 Yahweh’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”
Plis ke sa, zanj SENYÈ a te di li: “Mwen va miltipliye desandan ou yo anpil pou yo vin twòp pou konte.”
11 Yahweh’s angel said to her, “Behold, you are with child, and will bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because Yahweh has heard your affliction.
Zanj SENYÈ a te di li anplis: “Byen gade, ou ansent, e ou va fè yon fis. Epi ou va rele non li Ismaël ki vle di Bondye tande, akoz SENYÈ a te okipe afliksyon ou yo.
12 He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. He will live opposed to all of his brothers.”
Li va yon nonm tankou bourik mawon. Men li va kont tout moun, e men a tout moun va kont li. Epi li va viv yon jan ki kont tout frè li yo.”
13 She called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees,” for she said, “Have I even stayed alive after seeing him?”
Epi li te rele non SENYÈ a ki te pale avèk li: “Ou se yon Bondye ki wè a”, paske li te di: “Èske m ap vrèman rete vivan isit lè m fin wè Li”?
14 Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.
Pou sa, pwi a te rele Lachaï-roi. Gade byen, li la antre Kadès ak Bared.
15 Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.
Alò, Agar te fè yon fis pou Abram. E Abram te rele fis li a, ke Agar te fè a, Ismaël.
16 Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
Abram te gen katre-ven-sis ane lè Agar te fè Ismaël pou li a.
