Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Now Sarai the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children; but having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
1亚伯兰 的妻子 撒莱 不给他生儿女。 撒莱 有一个使女，名叫 夏甲 ，是 埃及 人。
2She said to her husband: Behold, the Lord hath restrained me from bearing: go in unto my handmaid, it may be I may have children of her at least. And when he agreed to her request,
2撒莱 对 亚伯兰 说：「耶和华使我不能生育。求你和我的使女同房，或者我可以因她得孩子。」 亚伯兰 听从了 撒莱 的话。
3She took Agar the Egyptian her handmaid, ten years after they first dwelt in the land of Chanaan, and gave her to her husband to wife.
3于是 亚伯兰 的妻子 撒莱 将使女 埃及 人 夏甲 给了丈夫为妾；那时 亚伯兰 在 迦南 已经住了十年。
4And he went in to her. But she, perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
4亚伯兰 与 夏甲 同房， 夏甲 就怀了孕；她见自己有孕，就小看她的主母。
5And Sarai said to Abram: Thou dost unjustly with me: I gave my handmaid into thy bosom, and she perceiving herself to be with child, despiseth me. The Lord judge between me and thee.
5撒莱 对 亚伯兰 说：「我因你受屈。我将我的使女放在你怀中，她见自己有了孕，就小看我。愿耶和华在你我中间判断。」
6And Abram made answer, and said to her: Behold thy handmaid is in thy own hand, use her as it pleaseth thee. And when Sarai afflicted her, she ran away.
6亚伯兰 对 撒莱 说：「使女在你手下，你可以随意待她。」 撒莱 苦待她，她就从 撒莱 面前逃走了。
7And the angel of the Lord having found her, by a fountain of water in the wilderness, which is in the way to Sur in the desert,
7耶和华的使者在旷野 书珥 路上的水泉旁遇见她，
8He said to her: Agar, handmaid of Sarai, whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she answered: I flee from the face of Sarai, my mistress.
8对她说：「 撒莱 的使女 夏甲 ，你从哪里来？要往哪里去？」 夏甲 说：「我从我的主母 撒莱 面前逃出来。」
9And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
9耶和华的使者对她说：「你回到你主母那里，服在她手下」；
10And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
10又说：「我必使你的后裔极其繁多，甚至不可胜数」；
11And again: Behold, said he, thou art with child, and thou shalt bring forth a son: and thou shalt call his name Ismael, because the Lord hath heard thy affliction.
11并说：「你如今怀孕要生一个儿子，可以给他起名叫 以实玛利 ，因为耶和华听见了你的苦情。
12He shall be a wild man: his hand will be against all men, and all men’s hands against him: and he shall pitch his tents over against all his brethren.
12他为人必像野驴。他的手要攻打人，人的手也要攻打他；他必住在众弟兄的东边。」
13And she called the name of the Lord that spoke unto her: Thou the God who hast seen me. For she said: Verily here have I seen the hinder parts of him that seeth me.
13夏甲 就称那对她说话的耶和华为「看顾人的 神」。因而说：「在这里我也看见那看顾我的吗？」
14Therefore she called that well, The well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Barad.
14所以这井名叫 庇耳·拉海·莱 。这井正在 加低斯 和 巴列 中间。
15And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
15后来 夏甲 给 亚伯兰 生了一个儿子； 亚伯兰 给他起名叫 以实玛利 。
16Abram was four score and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
16夏甲 给 亚伯兰 生 以实玛利 的时候， 亚伯兰 年八十六岁。
