Génesis 16

La Bible Crampon 1923

1Saraï, femme d'Abram, ne lui avait pas donné d'enfants ; et elle avait une servante égyptienne, nommée Agar.

2Saraï dit à Abram : " Voici que Yahweh m'a rendue stérile ; viens, je te prie, vers ma servante ; peut-être aurai-je d'elle des fils. " Abram écouta la voix de Saraï.

3Saraï, femme d'Abram, prit donc Agar l'Egyptienne, sa servante, après qu'Abram eut habité dix années dans le pays de Chanaan, et elle la donna à Abram, son mari, pour être sa femme.

4Il alla vers Agar, et elle conçut ; et quand elle vit qu'elle avait conçu, elle regarda sa maîtresse avec mépris.

5Saraï dit à Abram : " L'outrage qui m'est fait tombe sur toi. J'ai mis ma servante dans ton sein et, quand elle a vu qu'elle avait conçu, elle m'a regardée avec mépris. Que Yahweh juge entre moi et toi ! "

6Abram répondit à Saraï : " Voici, ta servante est sous ta puissance ; agis à son égard comme bon te semblera. " Alors Saraï la maltraita, et Agar s'enfuit de devant elle.

7L'ange de Yahweh la trouva près d'une source d'eau dans le désert, près de la source qui est sur le chemin de Sur.

8Il dit : " Agar, servante de Saraï, d'où viens-tu et où vas-tu ? " Elle répondit : " Je fuis loin de Saraï, ma maîtresse. "

9L'ange de Yahweh lui dit : " Retourne vers ta maîtresse et humilie-toi sous sa main. "

10L'ange de Yahweh ajouta : " Je multiplierai extrêmement ta postérité ; on ne pourra la compter, tant elle sera nombreuse. "

11L'ange de Yahweh lui dit encore : " Voici que tu es enceinte, et tu enfanteras un fils, et tu lui donneras le nom d'Ismaël, parce que Yahweh a entendu ton affliction.

12Ce sera un âne sauvage que cet homme ; sa main sera contre tous, et la main de tous sera contre lui, et il habitera en face de tous ses frères. "

13Agar donna à Yahweh qui lui avait parlé le nom de Atta-El-Roï car elle avait dit : " Ai-je donc ici même vu le Dieu qui me voyait ? "

14C'est pourquoi on a appelé ce puits le puits Lachaï-Roï. Il est situé entre Cadès et Barad.

15Agar enfanta un fils à Abram, et Abram donna le nom d'Ismaël au fils qu'Agar avait mis au monde.

16Abram était âgé de quatre-vingt-six ans lorsqu'Agar enfanta Ismaël à Abram.

Reina-Valera 1909

1Y SARAI, mujer de Abram, no le paría: y ella tenía una sierva egipcia, que se llamaba Agar.

2Dijo, pues, Sarai á Abram: Ya ves que Jehová me ha hecho estéril: ruégote que entres á mi sierva; quizá tendré hijos de ella. Y atendió Abram al dicho de Sarai.

3Y Sarai, mujer de Abram, tomó á Agar su sierva egipcia, al cabo de diez años que había habitado Abram en la tierra de Canaán, y dióla á Abram su marido por mujer.

4Y él cohabitó con Agar, la cual concibió: y cuando vió que había concebido, miraba con desprecio á su señora.

5Entonces Sarai dijo á Abram: Mi afrenta sea sobre ti: yo puse mi sierva en tu seno, y viéndose embarazada, me mira con desprecio; juzgue Jehová entre mí y ti.

6Y respondió Abram á Sarai: He ahí tu sierva en tu mano, haz con ella lo que bien te pareciere. Y como Sarai la afligiese, huyóse de su presencia.

7Y hallóla el ángel de Jehová junto á una fuente de agua en el desierto, junto á la fuente que está en el camino del Sur.

8Y le dijo: Agar, sierva de Sarai, ¿de dónde vienes tú, y á dónde vas? Y ella respondió: Huyo de delante de Sarai, mi señora.

9Y díjole el ángel de Jehová: Vuélvete á tu señora, y ponte sumisa bajo de su mano.

10Díjole también el ángel de Jehová: Multiplicaré tanto tu linaje, que no será contado á causa de la muchedumbre.

11Díjole aún el ángel de Jehová: He aquí que has concebido, y parirás un hijo, y llamarás su nombre Ismael, porque oído ha Jehová tu aflicción.

12Y él será hombre fiero; su mano contra todos, y las manos de todos contra él, y delante de todos sus hermanos habitará.

13Entonces llamó el nombre de Jehová que con ella hablaba: Tú eres el Dios de la vista; porque dijo: ¿No he visto también aquí al que me ve?

14Por lo cual llamó al pozo, Pozo del Viviente que me ve. He aquí está entre Cades y Bered.

15Y parió Agar á Abram un hijo, y llamó Abram el nombre de su hijo que le parió Agar, Ismael.

16Y era Abram de edad de ochenta y seis años, cuando parió Agar á Ismael.

King James Version

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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?

14Wherefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi; behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

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

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

World English Bible

1Now Sarai, Abram’s wife, bore him no children. She had a servant, an Egyptian, whose name was Hagar.

2Sarai said to Abram, “See now, the LORD has restrained me from bearing. Please go in to my servant. It may be that I will obtain children by her.” Abram listened to the voice of Sarai.

3Sarai, Abram’s wife, took Hagar the Egyptian, her servant, after Abram had lived ten years in the land of Canaan, and gave her to Abram her husband to be his wife.

4He went in to Hagar, and she conceived. When she saw that she had conceived, her mistress was despised in her eyes.

5Sarai said to Abram, “This wrong is your fault. I gave my servant into your bosom, and when she saw that she had conceived, she despised me. May the LORD judge between me and you.”

6But Abram said to Sarai, “Behold, your maid is in your hand. Do to her whatever is good in your eyes.” Sarai dealt harshly with her, and she fled from her face.

7The LORD’s angel found her by a fountain of water in the wilderness, by the fountain on the way to Shur.

8He said, “Hagar, Sarai’s servant, where did you come from? Where are you going?” She said, “I am fleeing from the face of my mistress Sarai.”

9The LORD’s angel said to her, “Return to your mistress, and submit yourself under her hands.”

10The LORD’s angel said to her, “I will greatly multiply your offspring, that they will not be counted for multitude.”

11The LORD’s angel said to her, “Behold, you are with child, and will bear a son. You shall call his name Ishmael, because the LORD has heard your affliction.

12He will be like a wild donkey among men. His hand will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. He will live opposed to all of his brothers.”

13She called the name of the LORD who spoke to her, “You are a God who sees,” for she said, “Have I even stayed alive after seeing him?”

14Therefore the well was called Beer Lahai Roi. Behold, it is between Kadesh and Bered.

15Hagar bore a son for Abram. Abram called the name of his son, whom Hagar bore, Ishmael.

16Abram was eighty-six years old when Hagar bore Ishmael to Abram.
