¹Now Sarai Abram's wife bare him no children: and she had an handmaid, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.

¹[Ny nahaterahan'Isimaela] Ary Saray, vadin'i Abrama, tsy mba niteraka; ary izy nanana mpanompovavy Egyptiana, Hagara no anarany.

²And Sarai said unto Abram, Behold now, the LORD hath restrained me from bearing: I pray thee, go in unto my maid; it may be that I may obtain children by her. And Abram hearkened to the voice of Sarai.

²Ary hoy Saray tamin'i Abrama: Indro, efa tsy nanome zanaka ahy Jehovah; masìna ianao, mivadia amin'ny mpanompovaviko; angamba hahazo zaza aminy aho. Dia neken'i Abrama ny tenin'i Saray.

³And Sarai Abram's wife took Hagar her maid the Egyptian, after Abram had dwelt ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to her husband Abram to be his wife.

³Ary rehefa nonina folo taona teo amin'ny tany Kanana Abrama, dia nalain'i Saray, vadin'i Abrama, Hagara Egyptiana mpanompovaviny, ka nomeny an'i Abrama vadiny mba hovadiny.

⁴And he went in unto Hagar, and she conceived: and when she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

⁴Dia nivady tamin'i Hagara izy, ka nanan'anaka ravehivavy; ary rehefa hitany fa efa manan'anaka izy, dia nataony toy ny tsinontsinona ny tompovaviny.

⁵And Sarai said unto Abram, My wrong be upon thee: I have given my maid into thy bosom; and when she saw that she had conceived, I was despised in her eyes: the LORD judge between me and thee.

⁵Ary hoy Saray tamin'i Abrama: Hanody anao anie ny fahoriako; fa efa nomeko ho andefimandrinao ny mpanompovaviko, ary nony hitany fa efa manan'anaka izy, dia na­taony toy ny tsinontsinona aho; Jehovah anie hitsara ahy sy ianao.

⁶But Abram said unto Sarai, Behold, thy maid is in thine hand; do to her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai dealt hardly with her, she fled from her face.

⁶Ary hoy Abrama tamin'i Saray: Indro, eo an-tananao ihany ny mpanompovavinao; ataovy aminy izay sitraponao. Ary raha nampahorin'i Saray Hagara, dia nandositra ny tavany izy.

⁷And the angel of the LORD found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain in the way to Shur.

⁷Ary Ilay Anjelin'i Jehovah nahita azy teo anilan'ny loharano anankiray tany an-efitra, dia teo anilan'ilay loharano eo amin'ny lalana mankany Sora.

⁸And he said, Hagar, Sarai's maid, whence camest thou? and whither wilt thou go? And she said, I flee from the face of my mistress Sarai.

⁸Ary hoy Izy: Ry Hagara, andevovavin'i Saray, avy taiza ianao? Ary hankaiza? Ary hoy izy; Mandositra ny tavan'i Saray tompovaviko aho.

⁹And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Return to thy mistress, and submit thyself under her hands.

⁹Ary hoy Ilay Anjelin'i Jehovah taminy: Miverena any amin'ny tompovavinao ka miareta izay ataony aminao.

¹⁰And the angel of the LORD said unto her, I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, that it shall not be numbered for multitude.

¹⁰Ary hoy koa Ilay Anjelin'i Jehovah taminy: Hataoko maro indrindra ny taranakao, ka tsy ho azo isaina izy noho ny hamaroany.

¹¹And the angel of the LORD said unto her, Behold, thou art with child and shalt bear a son, and shalt call his name Ishmael; because the LORD hath heard thy affliction.

¹¹Ary hoy indray Ilay Anjelin'i Jehovah taminy: Indro, manan'anaka ianao ka hiteraka zazalahy, ary ny anarany hataonao hoe Isimaela, satria efa nihaino ny fahorianao Jehovah.

¹²And he will be a wild man; his hand will be against every man, and every man's hand against him; and he shall dwell in the presence of all his brethren.

¹²Ary izy ho lehilahy toy ny boriki-dia; ny tànany hamely ny olona rehetra, ary ny tanan'ny olona rehetra kosa hamely azy; ary honina eo tandrifin'ny rahalahiny rehetra izy.

¹³And she called the name of the LORD that spake unto her, Thou God seest me: for she said, Have I also here looked after him that seeth me?

¹³Ary Hagara nanao ny anaran'i Jehovah, Izay niteny taminy hoe: Hianao no Andriamanitra Izay mahita; fa hoy izy: Tsy teto va no mbola velona aho aorian'ny fahitana?

¹⁴Wherefore the well was called Beerlahairoi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

¹⁴Izany no nanaovana ny lavaka fantsakana hoe: Bera-lahai-roy; indro, eo anelanelan'i Kadesy sy Bareda izany.

¹⁵And Hagar bare Abram a son: and Abram called his son's name, which Hagar bare, Ishmael.

¹⁵Ary Hagara dia niteraka zazalahy tamin'i Abrama; ary ny anaran'ny zanany izay naterany dia nataon'i Abrama hoe Isimaela.Ary efa enina amby valo-polo taona Abrama, raha Hagara niteraka an'Isimaela taminy.

¹⁶And Abram was fourscore and six years old, when Hagar bare Ishmael to Abram.

¹⁶Ary efa enina amby valo-polo taona Abrama, raha Hagara niteraka an'Isimaela taminy.
