創世記 16
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
夏甲與以實瑪利
16 亞伯蘭的妻子撒萊沒有生育,她有個婢女名叫夏甲,是埃及人。 2 撒萊對亞伯蘭說:「耶和華不讓我生育,請你與我的婢女同房,也許我可以藉著她生子立後。」亞伯蘭同意了撒萊的話。 3 於是,撒萊把埃及婢女夏甲給亞伯蘭做妾。那時亞伯蘭已經在迦南住了十年。 4 亞伯蘭與夏甲同房,她就懷了孕。夏甲知道自己懷了孕,就輕視女主人撒萊。 5 撒萊對亞伯蘭說:「我受氣都是因為你。我把婢女放在你懷裡,她仗著自己懷了孕就輕視我,願耶和華在你我之間主持公道。」 6 亞伯蘭對撒萊說:「婢女在你手中,隨你處置。」於是,撒萊苦待夏甲,夏甲就逃走了。
7 耶和華的天使在曠野中通往書珥之路的水泉旁找到了夏甲, 8 便問她:「撒萊的婢女夏甲,你從哪裡來?要到哪裡去?」她回答說:「我是從女主人撒萊那裡逃出來的。」 9 耶和華的天使對她說:「你要回到女主人那裡順服她。」 10 又說:「我必使你的後代多得不可勝數。」 11 接著又說:「你現在懷了孕,將來會生一個男孩,你要給他取名叫以實瑪利[a],因為耶和華已經聽見你痛苦的哀聲。 12 這孩子性情必像野驢,他要跟人作對,人也要跟他作對。他必與他所有的弟兄為敵。」 13 夏甲稱對她說話的耶和華為「看顧人的上帝」,她說:「我竟然在這裡看見了看顧我的上帝。」 14 因此,她稱加低斯和巴列之間的那口井為庇耳·拉海·萊[b]。
15 後來夏甲為亞伯蘭生了一個兒子,亞伯蘭給他取名叫以實瑪利。 16 夏甲生以實瑪利時,亞伯蘭八十六歲。

Sarai and Hagar
16 Now (A)Sarai, Abram’s wife, had borne him no children, and she had (B)an Egyptian servant-woman whose name was Hagar. 2 So Sarai said to Abram, “Now behold, Yahweh has shut my womb from bearing children. (C)Please go in to my servant-woman; perhaps I will [a]obtain children through her.” And Abram listened to the voice of Sarai. 3 And after Abram had [b]lived (D)ten years in the land of Canaan, Abram’s wife Sarai took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant-woman, and gave her to her husband Abram as his wife. 4 So he went in to Hagar, and she conceived. Then she saw that she had conceived, so her mistress became [c]contemptible in her sight. 5 And Sarai said to Abram, “(E)May the violence done to me be upon you. I gave my servant-woman into your [d]embrace, but she saw that she had conceived, so I became [e]contemptible in her [f]sight. (F)May Yahweh judge between [g]you and me.” 6 But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your servant-woman is in your [h]hand; do to her what is good in your [i]sight.” So Sarai afflicted her, and (G)she fled from her presence.
7 Now (H)the angel of Yahweh found her by a spring of water in the wilderness, by the spring on the way to (I)Shur. 8 And he said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant-woman, (J)where have you come from and where are you going?” And she said, “I am fleeing from the presence of my mistress Sarai.” 9 Then the angel of Yahweh said to her, “Return to your mistress and [j]humble yourself under her hands.” 10 Moreover, the (K)angel of Yahweh said to her, “(L)I will greatly multiply your seed so that [k]they will be too many to be counted.” 11 And the angel of Yahweh said to her further,
“Behold, you [l]are with child,
And you will bear a son;
And you shall call his name [m]Ishmael,
Because (M)Yahweh has heard your affliction.
12 And he will be a (N)wild donkey of a man,
His hand will be against everyone,
And everyone’s hand will be against him;
And he will dwell [n](O)in the face of all his brothers.”
13 Then she called the name of Yahweh who spoke to her, “[o]You are [p]a God who sees”; for she said, “(P)Have I even [q]remained alive here after seeing Him?” 14 Therefore the well was called [r]Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between (Q)Kadesh and Bered.
15 So Hagar bore Abram a son; and Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael. 16 Now Abram was (R)eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to [s]him.
