¹² Amma Irikoy ne Ibrahim se: «Woone ma si ciya bine saray hari ni se, arwaso da ni koŋŋa sabbay se. Hay kulu kaŋ Saharatu ga ci ni se, kala ni ma maa a sanno se, zama Isaka gaa no ni banda ga fun.

¹²And God said unto Abraham, Let it not be grievous in thy sight because of the lad, and because of thy handmaid. In all that Sarah saith unto thee, hearken unto her voice. For in Isaac shall thy seed be called.

¹⁴Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it to Hagar, putting it on her shoulder; and gave her the child, and sent her away. She departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beersheba.

¹⁴ Ibrahim binde biya ka tun ka buuru nda hari humbur fo sambu k'i no Hajaratu se. A n'a sarku a se jasa gaa ka izo no a se k'a sallama. Nga mo dira, kal a te boŋdaray. A soobay ka bar-bare Beyer-Seba ganjo ra.

¹⁴And Abraham rose up early in the morning, and took bread and a bottle of water, and gave it unto Hagar, putting it on her shoulder, and [gave her] the child, and sent her away. And she departed, and wandered in the wilderness of Beer-sheba.

¹⁵The water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

¹⁵ Haro kaŋ go humburo ra binde ban, kal a na arwaso jisi tuuri fo cire.

¹⁵And the water in the bottle was spent, and she cast the child under one of the shrubs.

¹⁶She went and sat down opposite him, a good way off, about a bow shot away. For she said, “Don’t let me see the death of the child.” She sat over against him, and lifted up her voice, and wept.

¹⁶ A koy ka goro a jine nangu mooro, danga hangaw hayyaŋ mooray cine fo me. Zama a ne: «Ay ma si di arwaso buuyaŋo.» A goro a jine ka nga jinde sambu ka hẽ.

¹⁷God heard the voice of the boy. The angel of God called to Hagar out of the sky, and said to her, “What ails you, Hagar? Don’t be afraid. For God has heard the voice of the boy where he is.

¹⁷ Kala Irikoy maa arwaso jinda. Irikoy malayka jinda fun beena ra ka Hajaratu ce ka ne: «Ifo ka du nin, ya nin Hajaratu? Ma si humburu, zama Irikoy maa arwaso jinda nango kaŋ a go.

¹⁷And God heard the voice of the lad. And the angel of God called to Hagar out of heaven, and said unto her, What aileth thee, Hagar? Fear not. For God hath heard the voice of the lad where he is.

¹⁸ Ma tun ka koociya sambu k'a gaay ni kambe ra, zama ay g'a ciya dumi bambata.»

¹⁸Arise, lift up the lad, and hold him in thy hand. For I will make him a great nation.

¹⁹God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. She went, filled the bottle with water, and gave the boy drink.

¹⁹ Kala Irikoy n'a moy feeri, a di hari day fo mo. A koy ka humburo toonandi nda hari ka no koociya se, nga mo haŋ.

¹⁹And God opened her eyes, and she saw a well of water. And she went, and filled the bottle with water, and gave the lad drink.

²⁰ Irikoy go arwaso banda mo koyne. A soobay ka beeri. A goro ganjo ra ka te gaw.

²⁰And God was with the lad, and he grew. And he dwelt in the wilderness, and became, as he grew up, an archer.

²¹ A goro Paran ganjo ra. Nyaŋo mo na wande sambu a se Misira laabo ra.

²¹And he dwelt in the wilderness of Paran. And his mother took him a wife out of the land of Egypt.

²²It happened at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his army spoke to Abraham, saying, “God is with you in all that you do.

²² A go no mo, alwaato din ra, kaŋ Abimelek da nga wongu koyo Fikol salaŋ da Ibrahim. I ne: «Irikoy go ni banda hay kulu kaŋ ni ga te ra.

²²And it came to pass at that time, that Abimelech and Phicol the captain of his host spake unto Abraham, saying, God is with thee in all that thou doest.

²³Now, therefore, swear to me here by God that you will not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son’s son. But according to the kindness that I have done to you, you shall do to me, and to the land in which you have lived as a foreigner.”

²³ Sohõ binde, kala ni ma ze ay se da Irikoy, nango wo ra, ka ne ni si fafagay goy te ay, wala ay izey, wala ay haamey se. Amma ni ga booriyaŋ cabe in da laabo kaŋ ra ni zumbu se, mate kaŋ ay jin ka cabe ni se.»

²³Now therefore swear unto me here by God that thou wilt not deal falsely with me, nor with my son, nor with my son's son. But according to the kindness that I have done unto thee, thou shalt do unto me, and to the land wherein thou hast sojourned.

²⁴Abraham said, “I will swear.”

²⁴ Ibrahim ne: «Ay ga ze.»

²⁴And Abraham said, I will swear.

²⁵Abraham complained to Abimelech because of a water well, which Abimelech’s servants had violently taken away.

²⁵ Amma Ibrahim deeni Abimelek gaa day fo kaŋ Abimelek bannyey kom sabbay se.

²⁵And Abraham reproved Abimelech because of the well of water, which Abimelech's servants had violently taken away.

²⁶Abimelech said, “I don’t know who has done this thing. You didn’t tell me, neither did I hear of it, until today.”

²⁶ Abimelek mo ne: «Ay ya, mana bay boro kaŋ na haya din te, ni mana ci ay se mo. Ay mana maa r'a mo, kala hunkuna.»

²⁶And Abimelech said, I know not who hath done this thing. Neither didst thou tell me, neither yet heard I of it, but to-day.

²⁷Abraham took sheep and cattle, and gave them to Abimelech. Those two made a covenant.

²⁷ Ibrahim binde na feejiyaŋ da hawyaŋ sambu ka no Abimelek se. I boro hinka sappe mo.

²⁷And Abraham took sheep and oxen, and gave them unto Abimelech. And they two made a covenant.

²⁸Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

²⁸ Woodin banda Ibrahim na feeji zan iyye kaa nga kuro ra.

²⁸And Abraham set seven ewe lambs of the flock by themselves.

²⁹Abimelech said to Abraham, “What do these seven ewe lambs which you have set by themselves mean?”

²⁹ Abimelek ne Ibrahim se: «Ifo no feeji zan iyya din kaŋ yaŋ ni fay waani?»

²⁹And Abimelech said unto Abraham, What mean these seven ewe lambs which thou hast set by themselves?

³⁰He said, “You shall take these seven ewe lambs from my hand, that it may be a witness to me, that I have dug this well.”

³⁰ A ne: «Feeji zan iyya din, ni g'i ta ay kambe ra no. I ma ciya seeda ay se kaŋ ay no ka dayo wo fansi.»

³⁰And he said, These seven ewe lambs shalt thou take of my hand, that it may be a witness unto me, that I have digged this well.

³¹Therefore he called that place Beersheba, Beersheba can mean “well of the oath” or “well of seven.” because they both swore there.

³¹ A na nango wo maa daŋ Beyer-Seba, _kaŋ a feerijo ga ti Zeyaŋ Dayo|_, zama noodin no i boro hinka kulu ze care se.

³¹Wherefore he called that place Beer-sheba. Because there they sware both of them.

³²So they made a covenant at Beersheba. Abimelech rose up with Phicol, the captain of his army, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

³² Yaadin binde no i sappe d'a Beyer-Seba. A go mo, Abimelek tun noodin, nga nda nga wongu marga koyo Fikol. I ye Filistancey laabu.

³²So they made a covenant at Beer-sheba. And Abimelech rose up, and Phicol the captain of his host, and they returned into the land of the Philistines.

³³Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba, and called there on the name of Yahweh, the Everlasting God.

³³ Ibrahim mo na boosay tuuri nyayaŋ tilam Beyer-Seba ra. Noodin mo a ce Rabbi maa boŋ ka ne a se Irikoy Duumikoy.

³³And [Abraham] planted a tamarisk tree in Beer-sheba, and called there on the name of Jehovah, the Everlasting God.
