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, bore him no children, but she had an Egyptian servant 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

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.

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 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.

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

He slept with Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

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

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."

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

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.

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 the angel of God found her by a spring of water in the desert, by the spring 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, 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."

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

The angel of the LORD said to her, "Return to your mistress, and submit yourself to 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

The angel of the LORD said to her, "I will greatly multiply your descendants, so that they will be too numerous to count."

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

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.

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

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."

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 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."

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

Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Look, 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

Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, 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 bore Ishmael to Abram.
