Genesis 15
1 Zitatha izi, Yehova anayankhula ndi Abramu mʼmasomphenya nati: “Usaope Abramu. Ine ndili ngati chishango chokutchinjiriza. Mphotho yako idzakhala yayikulu.”
Eyinom akyi no, Awurade kasa kyerɛɛ Abram wɔ anisoadehu mu se, “Abram, nsuro. Meyɛ wo nkatabo. Meyɛ wo kyɛfa a ɛsom bo.”
2 Koma Abramu anati, “Haa! Ambuye Yehova, mukhoza kundipatsa chiyani popeza ndikanali wopanda mwana ndipo amene adzatenge chuma changa ndi Eliezara wa ku Damasiko?
Abram nso buae se, “Awurade Nyankopɔn, dɛn na wode bɛma me wɔ bere a minni ɔba. Onipa a obedi mʼade no yɛ Damaskoni Elieser?”
3 Inu simunandipatse ana kotero kuti wantchito wa ku nyumba kwanga ndiye amene adzalowe mʼmalo mwanga.”
Na Abram toaa so se, “Wommaa me mma nti, akoa a wɔwoo no wɔ me fi no na obedi mʼade.”
4 Yehova anayankhula naye nati: “Munthu uyu sadzalowa mʼmalo mwako, koma mwana wako weniweni wamwamuna, wobereka wekha ndiye adzalowe mʼmalo mwako.”
Na Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram se, “Saa ɔbarima yi renni wʼade da, gye wʼankasa wo yafunumma.”
5 Yehova anapita naye Abramu panja nati, “Tayangʼana kumwambaku, ndipo chifukwa cha chimenechi uwerenge nyenyezi ngati ungathe kuziwerenga.” Ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Ndi mmene adzakhalire ana ako ndi zidzukulu zako.”
Onyankopɔn de Abram kɔɔ afikyiri, na ɔka kyerɛɛ no se, “Ma wʼani so hwɛ soro na hwɛ sɛ wubetumi akan soro nsoromma ana.” Afei, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Abram se, “Saa ara na wʼasefo bɛdɔɔso nen.”
6 Abramu anakhulupirira Yehova, ndipo ichi chinamuchititsa kukhala wolungama.
Abram gyee asɛm a Awurade kae no dii. Ne saa nti, Awurade buu no onipa trenee.
7 Ndipo anamuwuza kuti, “Ine ndine Yehova amene ndinakuchotsa iwe ku mzinda wa Uri wa ku Akaldeya kuti ndikupatse dziko ili kuti likhale lako.”
Awurade Nyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Abram bio se, “Mene Awurade a mede wo fi Ur a ɛwɔ Kaldeafo asase so bae sɛ mede saa asase yi rema wo sɛ wʼagyapade.”
8 Koma Abramu anati, “Haa! Ambuye Yehova, kodi ndingadziwe bwanji kuti lidzakhaladi langa?”
Nanso Abram kae se, “Ɔsorosoro Awurade, ɛbɛyɛ dɛn na mehu sɛ asase no bɛyɛ me dea?”
9 Kotero Yehova anati kwa iye, “Kanditengere kamsoti kangʼombe ka zaka zitatu, kamsoti ka mbuzi ka zaka zitatu, ndi nkhosa yayimuna ya zaka zitatu pamodzi ndi nkhunda ndi kamwana ka njiwa.”
Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram se, “Fa nantwi ba a wadi mfe abiɛsa, abirekyibere a wadi mfe abiɛsa, Odwennini a wadi mfe abiɛsa, agyenkuku ne aborɔnoma ba brɛ me.”
10 Abramu anabweretsadi zonsezi nadula chilichonse pakati nʼkuzindandalika, chidutswa chilichonse kuyangʼanana ndi chinzake; koma njiwa ndi nkhunda sanazidule pakati.
Abram de eyinom nyinaa brɛɛ Onyankopɔn, paapae wɔn mu abien abien, na ɔde afaafa no kyerɛkyerɛɛ anim, de guguu hɔ. Na nnomaa no de, wampaapae wɔn mu.
11 Pamene miphamba inabwera kuti itole nyama ija, Abramu anayipirikitsa.
Na apete besisii mmoa no afunu so no, Abram pam wɔn.
12 Pamene dzuwa limalowa Abramu anagona tulo tofa nato ndipo mdima wandiweyani ndi wochititsa mantha unamuphimba.
Bere a owia rekɔtɔ no, Abram daa hatee, na sum kabii a ɛyɛ hu tɔɔ ne so.
13 Tsono Yehova anati kwa iye, “Uyenera kudziwa mosakayika kuti zidzukulu zako zidzakhala alendo mʼdziko lachilendo ndipo zidzakhala akapolo ndi kuzunzidwa zaka 400.
Afei, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram se, “Gye di sɛ wʼasefo bɛyɛ ahɔho wɔ asase a ɛnyɛ wɔn dea so. Wɔbɛyɛ nkoa wɔ ɔman no mu, asom, na wɔayɛ wɔn ayayade mfe ahannan.
14 Koma ndidzalanga dziko limene zidzukulu zako zidzagwireko ukapolo ndipo pambuyo pake iwo adzatulukamo ndi chuma chambiri.
Nanso mɛtwe saa ɔman a wʼasefo bɛsom wɔn no aso, na ɛno akyi no, wobefi ɔman a wɔsom mu no mu aba sɛ adefo.
15 Komabe iweyo udzamwalira mu mtendere ndi kuyikidwa mʼmanda utakalamba bwino.
Wo de, wubewu asomdwoe mu. Wubenyin akyɛ yiye ansa na woawu.
16 Patapita mibado inayi, adzukulu ako adzabwereranso kuno popeza tchimo la Aamori silinafike pachimake kuti alangidwe.”
Nanso awo ntoatoaso a ɛto so anan no mu, wʼasefo bɛsan aba saa ɔman yi mu bio. Efisɛ saa bere yi, Amorifo a wɔte saa asase yi so nnɛ yi bɔne a wɔyɛ no nnya nnuu nea wɔtwe wɔn aso ma ɛyɛ yiye ɛ.”
17 Dzuwa litalowa ndipo mdima utagwa, panaoneka mʼphika wofuka nthunzi ya moto ndi sakali yoyaka ndipo zinadutsa pakati pa zidutswa za nyama zija.
Na ɛbaa sɛ owia kɔtɔe, na sum durui no, Abram huu ogyaframa bi sɛ ɛrefi wusiw ne ogyatɛn a ɛredɛw bɛfaa mmoa a wɔakum wɔn no afunu afaafa no ntam.
18 Pa tsiku limenelo, Yehova anachita pangano ndi Abramu nati, “Ndikulonjeza kuti ndidzapereka dziko ili kwa zidzukulu zako, kuchokera ku mtsinje wa ku Igupto mpaka ku mtsinje waukulu wa Yufurate.
Saa da no ara, Awurade ne Abram yɛɛ apam, kae se, “Mede saa asase a efi Misraim asubɔnten no ho, de kosi asubɔnten kɛse Eufrate ho bɛma wo ne wʼasefo.
19 Ndidzakupatsani dziko la Akeni, Akenizi, Akadimoni,
Saa ara nso na mede Kenifo, Kenesifo, Kadmonifo,
20 Ahiti, Aperezi, Arefaimu,
Hetifo, Perisifo, Refaimfo,
21 Aamori, Akanaani, Agirigasi ndi Ayebusi.”
Amorifo, Kanaanfo, Girgasifo ne Yebusifo nsase nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefo no.”
