1Σάρα δὲ ἡ γυνὴ Ἅβραμ οὐκ ἔτικτεν αὐτῷ· ἦν δὲ αὐτῇ παιδίσκη Αἰγυπτία, ᾗ ὄνομα Ἄγαρ.
1Now Sarai the wife of Abram, had brought forth no children; but having a handmaid, an Egyptian, named Agar,
2Εἶπε δὲ Σάρα πρὸς Ἅβραμ, ἰδοὺ συνέκλεισέ με Κύριος τοῦ μὴ τίκτειν· εἴσελθε οὖν πρὸς τὴν παιδίσκην μου, ἵνα τεκνοποιήσωμαι ἐξ αὐτῆς· ὑπήκουσελ δὲ Ἅβραμ τῆς φωνῆς Σάρας.
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,
3Καὶ λαβοῦσα Σάρα ἡ γυνὴ Ἅβραμ Ἄγαρ τὴν Αἰγυπτίαν τὴν ἑαυτῆς παιδίσκην, μετὰ δέκα ἔτη τοῦ οἰκῆσαι Ἅβραμ ἐν γῇ Χαναὰν, ἔδωκεν αὐτὴν τῷ Ἅβραμ ἀνδρὶ αὐτῆς αὐτῷ γυναῖκα.
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.
4Καὶ εἰσῆλθε πρὸς Ἄγαρ, καὶ συνέλαβε· καὶ εἶδεν ὅτι ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχει, καὶ ἠτιμάσθη ἡ κυρία ἐναντίον αὐτῆς.
4And he went in to her. But she, perceiving that she was with child, despised her mistress.
5Εἶπε δὲ Σάρα πρὸς Ἅβραμ, ἀδικοῦμαι ἐκ σοῦ· ἐγὼ δέδωκα τὴν παιδίσκην μου εἰς τὸν κόλπον σου, ἰδοῦσα δὲ ὅτι ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχει, ἠτιμάσθην ἐναντίον αὐτῆς. κρίναι ὁ Θεὸς ἀνὰ μέσον ἐμοῦ καὶ σου.
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.
6Εἶπε δὲ Ἅβραμ πρὸς Σάραν, ἰδοὺ ἡ παιδίσκη σου ἐν ταῖς χερσί σου, χρῶ αὐτῇ ὡς ἄν σοι ἀρεστὸν ᾖ. καὶ ἐκάκωσεν αὐτὴν Σάρα, καὶ ἀπέδρα ἀπὸ προσώπου αὐτῆς.
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.
7Εὗρε δὲ αὐτὴν ἄγγελος Κυρίου ἐπὶ τῆς πηγῆς τοῦ ὕδατος ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ, ἐπὶ τῆς πηγῆς ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ Σούρ.
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,
8Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου, Ἄγαρ παιδίσκη Σάρας, πόθεν ἔρχῃ; καὶ ποῦ πορεύῃ; καὶ εἶπεν· ἀπὸ προσώπου Σάρας τῆς κυρίας μου ἐγὼ ἀποδιδράσκω.
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.
9Εἶπε δὲ αὐτῇ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου, ἀποστράφηθι πρὸς τὴν κυρίαν σου, καὶ ταπεινώθητι ὑπὸ τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῆς.
9And the angel of the Lord said to her: Return to thy mistress, and humble thyself under her hand.
10Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου, πληθύνων πληθυνῶ τὸ σπέρμα σου, καὶ οὐκ ἀριθμηθήσεται ὑπὸ τοῦ πλήθους.
10And again he said: I will multiply thy seed exceedingly, and it shall not be numbered for multitude.
11Καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ ὁ ἄγγελος Κυρίου, ἰδοὺ σὺ ἐν γαστρὶ ἔχεις, καὶ τέξῃ υἱὸν, καὶ καλέσεις τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Ἰσμαὴλ, ὅτι ἐπήκουσε Κύριος τῇ ταπεινώσει σου.
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.
12Οὗτος ἔσται ἄγροικος ἄνθρωπος· αἱ χεῖρες αὐτοῦ ἐπὶ πάντας, καὶ αἱ χεῖρες πάντων ἐπʼ αὐτόν· καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον πάντων τῶν ἀδελφῶν αὐτοῦ κατοικήσει.
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.
13Καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα Κυρίου τοῦ λαλοῦντος πρὸς αὐτὴν, σὺ ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ἐτιδών με· ὅτι εἶπε, καὶ γὰρ ἐνώπιον εἶδον ὀφθέντα μοι.
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.
14Ἕνεκεν τούτου ἐκάλεσε τὸ φρέαρ, φρέαρ οὗ ἐνώπιον εἶδον· ἰδοὺ ἀνὰ μέσον Κάδης καὶ ἀνὰ μέσον Βαράδ.
14Therefore she called that well, The well of him that liveth and seeth me. The same is between Cades and Barad.
15Καὶ ἔτεκεν Ἄγαρ τῷ Ἅβραμ υἱὸν, καὶ ἐκάλεσεν Ἅβραμ τὸ ὄνομα τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ, ὃν ἔτεκεν αὐτῷ Ἄγαρ, Ἰσμαήλ.
15And Agar brought forth a son to Abram: who called his name Ismael.
16Ἅβραμ δὲ ἦν ἐτῶν ὀγδοηκονταὲξ, ἡνίκα ἔτεκεν Ἄγαρ τῷ Ἅβραμ τὸν Ἰσμαήλ.
16Abram was four score and six years old when Agar brought him forth Ismael.
