ગુજરાતીઉત્પત્તિ ૧૬:૫
પછી સારાયે ઇબ્રામને કહ્યું, “મારી સાથે આ ખોટું થયું છે. મેં મારી દાસી તને આપી અને જયારે ખાતરી થઈ કે તે ગર્ભવતી થઈ છે ત્યારે તેની દ્રષ્ટિમાં હું તુચ્છ થઈ છું. મારી અને તારી વચ્ચે ઈશ્વર ન્યાય કરો.”
हिन्दीउत्पत्ति १६:५
तब सारै ने अब्राम से कहा, “जो मुझ पर उपद्रव हुआ वह तेरे ही सिर पर हो। मैंने तो अपनी दासी को तेरी पत्नी कर दिया; पर जब उसने जाना कि वह गर्भवती है, तब वह मुझे तुच्छ समझने लगी, इसलिए यहोवा मेरे और तेरे बीच में न्याय करे।”

In context

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.
