1 Sara anakhala ndi moyo zaka 127.
Sara dii mfeɛ ɔha aduonu nson.
2 Anamwalirira ku Kiriyati-Araba, kumeneku ndi ku Hebroni, mʼdziko la Kanaani, ndipo Abrahamu anapita kukakhuza maliro a Sara, namulirira.
Ɔwuu wɔ Kiriat-Arba a ɛno ara ne Hebron a ɛwɔ Kanaan asase so. Abraham kɔgyam ne yere Sara, suu no wɔ hɔ.
3 Kenaka Abrahamu ananyamuka pamene panali mtembo wa mkazi wakepo kupita kukayankhula ndi anthu a ku Hiti. Ndipo anati,
Abraham gyaa ne yere Sara amu no hɔ, kɔɔ Hetifoɔ mpanimfoɔ nkyɛn, kɔsrɛɛ wɔn sɛ,
4 “Ine ndine mlendo wongoyendayenda kwanu kuno. Bwanji mundigulitse malo woti akhale manda kuti ndiyikepo thupi la mkazi wanga.”
“Meyɛ ɔhɔhoɔ ne mamfrani a mete mo mu. Mesrɛ mo, montɔn mo asase yi bi mma me, na mensie me yere wɔ so.”
5 Anthu a ku Hiti aja anamuyankha Abrahamu kuti,
Hetifoɔ no buaa Abraham sɛ,
6 “Tatimverani mbuye wathu, inu ndinu mwana wa mfumu wamkulu pakati pathu. Chonde ikani thupi la mkazi wanu mʼmanda aliwonse amene mungafune. Palibe mmodzi wa ife amene adzakukanizani manda ake kuti musayike mkazi wanu.”
“Owura, yɛsrɛ wo, tie asɛm a yɛrebɛka yi. Woyɛ Onyankopɔn ɔsomfoɔ kɛseɛ wɔ yɛn mu. Yɛn boda biara a ɛsɔ wʼani a wopɛ sɛ wosie wo yere wɔ hɔ no, yɛma wo ho kwan, kɔsie no. Yɛn mu biara remfa ne boda nkame wo.”
7 Tsono Abrahamu anayimirira naweramira anthu a dziko la Hiti aja
Ɛhɔ ara, Abraham sɔre bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ Hetifoɔ no anim,
8 nati, “Ngati mwaloladi kuti ndiyike mkazi wanga kuno, ndiye ndimvereni. Mundipemphere kwa Efroni mwana wa Zohari
ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ moapene so sɛ mensie mʼamu no wɔ ha deɛ a, mepa mo kyɛw, monsrɛ Efron a ɔyɛ Sohar babarima no mma me,
9 kuti andigulitse phanga la Makipela, limene lili kumapeto kwa munda wake. Mumupemphe kuti andigulitse pamtengo wake ndithu inu mukuona kuti akhale manda.”
na ɔntɔn Makpela ɔboda a ɛwɔ nʼafuo ano no mma me. Monka nkyerɛ no na ɔntɔn no sɛdeɛ ne boɔ die pɛpɛɛpɛ mma me, na mede hɔ ayɛ me ne mʼabusuafoɔ amusieeɛ.”
10 Pamenepo nʼkuti Efroni Mhiti ali pomwepo pakati pa anthuwo amene anabwera ku chipata cha mzindawo. Ndipo onse akumva anamuyankha Abrahamu
Saa ɛberɛ no na Hetini Efron a ɔte ne manfoɔ mu no buaa Abraham maa ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔahyia wɔ kuro no ɛpono ano nyinaa tee sɛ,
11 nati, “Ayi mbuye wanga tandimverani, ine ndikukupatsani mundawo ndiponso phanga limene lili mʼmenemo. Ndikukupatsani malowa pamaso pa anthu a mtundu wanga. Chonde ikani mtembo wamkazi wanu.”
“Dabi, me wura, tie me! Mede afuo no ne ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no kyɛ wo. Megyina me manfoɔ anim, na mede kyɛ wo. Kɔsie wʼamu no wɔ hɔ.”
12 Apo Abrahamu anaweramanso mwaulemu pamaso pa anthu a mʼdzikolo
Bio Abraham de obuo ne anidie bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ ɔmanfoɔ no anim,
13 ndipo anthu onse akumva Abrahamu anati kwa Efroni, “Ngati kungatheke, chonde ndimvereni. Ine ndichita kugula mundawu. Landirani ndalama za mundawu kuti ine ndiyike mkazi wanga mʼmenemo.”
ka kyerɛɛ Efron maa wɔn a wɔahyia wɔ hɔ no nyinaa tee asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no sɛ, “Mesrɛ mo, ɔmanfoɔ, monyɛ aso mma me. Momma mentua asase no ka. Mompene so mma me, na mennya ɛkwan nkɔsie mʼamu no.”
14 Koma Efroni anamuyankha Abrahamu nati,
Efron buaa Abraham sɛ,
15 “Mundimvere mbuye wanga; mundawo mtengo wake ndi masekeli asiliva okwana 400. Koma zimenezo nʼchiyani pakati pa ine ndi inu? Ikani mtembo wa mkazi wanu.”
“Me wura, tie me! Asase no boɔ yɛ dwetɛ kilogram ɛnan ne fa. Yɛnyɛ nnipa baako anaa? Meregye saa sika yi ayɛ ɛdeɛn? Kɔsie wʼamu no!”
16 Abrahamu anavomera mtengo umene ananena Efroni Ahiti onse akumva ndipo anamuwerengera masekeli asiliva okwana 400 monga mwa mtengo wa ndalama umene amalonda a nthawi imeneyo ankagwiritsa ntchito.
Abraham penee Efron asɛm no so. Ɔkarii dwetɛ kilogram ɛnan ne fa a ɛyɛ asase no boɔ de maa Efron. Saa ara na na adwadifoɔ tɔn asase wɔ Hetifoɔ ɔman mu, na Hetifoɔ mpanimfoɔ no dii dwumadie no ho adanseɛ.
17 Choncho munda wa Efroni wa ku Makipela umene unali kufupi ndi Mamre, kuphatikiza munda, phanga linali mʼmenemo pamodzi ndi mitengo yonse ya mʼmundamo, zinaperekedwa
Enti, wɔde Efron asase a ɛwɔ Makpela a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ, a ɛyɛ afuo no, ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no, nnua a ɛwɔ afuo no mu ne nʼahyeɛ so nyinaa maa
18 kwa Abrahamu ngati chuma chake pamaso pa anthu onse a ku Hiti amene anabwera ku chipata cha mzindawo.
Abraham sɛ nʼagyapadeɛ. Yei nyinaa sii wɔ Hetifoɔ no ne wɔn a wɔbaa kuro no ɛpono no ano nyinaa anim.
19 Zitatha izi, Abrahamu anayika mkazi wake Sara mʼphanga la mʼmunda wa ku Makipela, kufupi ndi ku Mamre (kumene ndi ku Hebroni) mʼdziko la Kanaani.
Afei, Abraham siee ne yere Sara wɔ ɔboda a ɛwɔ Makpela afuo a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ a ɛno ara ne Hebron a ɛwɔ Kanaan asase so no mu.
20 Choncho Ahiti anapereka munda pamodzi ndi phanga la mʼmenemo kwa Abrahamu kuti akhale manda.
Enti, Hetifoɔ no yɛɛ nhyehyɛeɛ de afuo no ne ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no maa Abraham sɛ, nʼagyapadeɛ ne nʼamusieeɛ.
