< Genesis 24 >
1 Tsopano Abrahamu anali atakalamba kwambiri, ndipo Yehova anamudalitsa mu zonse anachita.
Ibrahim noseti kendo hike noniangʼ, kendo Jehova Nyasaye nosegwedhe e yore duto.
2 Tsiku lina Abrahamu anawuza wantchito wake wamkulu amene ankayangʼanira zonse anali nazo, kuti “Ika dzanja lako pansi pa ntchafu yanga.
Nowacho ne jatichne maduongʼ mane rito gige ode duto niya, “Ket lweti e kind ema.
3 Ndikufuna kuti ulumbire pamaso pa Yehova, Mulungu wakumwamba ndi dziko lapansi, kuti sudzamupezera mwana wanga mkazi pakati pa atsikana Achikanaani a kuno kumene ndikukhala,
Adwaro mondo ikwongʼrina gi nying Jehova Nyasaye, Nyasach polo kod piny ni ok ibi yudone wuoda dhako koa kuom nyi Kanaan ma an jadak e kindgini,

to ibiro dhi thurwa kendo ir wedena mondo iyudne wuoda Isaka dhako.”
5 Wantchito uja anafunsa kuti, “Nanga atakhala kuti mkaziyo sakufuna kubwera nane kuno? Kodi ine ndingadzatenge mwana wanu ndi kubwerera naye ku dziko kumene munachokera?”
Jatichne nopenje niya, “Datim angʼo ka nyakono ok oyie biro koda e pinyni? Dadwok wuodi thuru kumane iayeno?”
6 Abrahamu anati, “Uwonetsetse kuti usadzabwerere naye mwana wanga kumeneko.
Ibrahim nowachone niya, “Nyaka ine ni ok idwoko wuoda kuno.
7 Yehova Mulungu wakumwamba amene ananditenga kwa makolo anga nanditulutsa mʼdziko lobadwira, ameneyo anayankhula nane molumbira kuti, ‘Kwa zidzukulu zako ndidzapereka dziko ili.’ Iyeyu adzatumiza mngelo wake kuti akutsogolere kumeneko kukapezera mwana wanga mkazi.
Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach polo mane ogola thurwa e dala wuora kendo nowuoyo koda kotimo koda singruok ni, ‘To ne nyikwayi nami pinyni’ kendo en owuon ema obiro oro malaikane nyimi mondo mi iyudne wuoda dhako kuno.
8 Ngati mkaziyo adzakana kubwerera nawe ndiye kuti udzakhala womasuka ku lumbiro langa. Koma usadzamutenge mwana wanga ndi kubwerera naye kumeneko.”
To ka nyakono ok dwar biro kodi, eka inibed thuolo kuom singruok ma atimo kodini. Ne mana ni ok idwoko wuoda kuno.”
9 Choncho wantchitoyo anayika dzanja lake pansi pa ntchafu ya mbuye wake Abrahamu nalumbira kwa iye kuti adzachitadi monga mwa mawu a Abrahamu.
Omiyo jatijeno noketo lwete e kind em ruodhe Ibrahim kendo notimo singruok kode e wachni.
10 Tsono wantchito uja anatengapo ngamira khumi mwa ngamira za mbuye wake pamodzi ndi zinthu zabwino za mitundumitundu. Ndipo ananyamuka kupita ku mzinda wa Nahori, mʼdziko la Mesopotamiya.
Eka jatijeno nokawo ngamia apar mag ruodhe, kod chiwo duto mabeyo mochako wuoth kodhi Aram-Naharaim (tiende ni, Mesopotamia) koluwo yo madhi dala matin mar Nahor.
11 Atafika, anagwaditsa pansi ngamira zija pafupi ndi chitsime chimene chinali kunja kwa mzinda uja. Awa anali madzulo ndithu, nthawi imene amayi amapita kukatunga madzi.
Noketo ngamia onindo piny machiegni gi soko but dala; ne en kar angʼich welo, seche mamon dhi umbo.
12 Ndipo wantchito uja anapemphera nati, “Haa, Yehova, Mulungu wa mbuye wanga Abrahamu, mulole kuti zinthu zindiyendere ine lero, ndipo muonetseni mbuye wanga Abrahamu kukoma mtima kwanu kosasinthika.
Eka nolemo niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Nyasach ruodha Ibrahim, gwedha kawuono, kendo nyis ngʼwononi ne ruodha Ibrahim.
13 Taonani ndayima pambali pa chitsimechi, ndipo atsikana a mu mzindawu akubwera kudzatunga madzi.
Ne, koro eri achungo e bath sokoni, kama nyi dalani biro umboe pi.
14 Ine ndipempha mtsikana wina kuti, ‘Chonde tula mtsuko wako kuti ndimweko madzi.’ Tsono iye akayankha kuti ‘Imwani,’ ndipo ndidzapatsanso ngamira zanu madziwo, ameneyo akhale mkazi amene mwasankhira mtumiki wanu Isake.” Zimenezi zikachitika, ndidzadziwa kuti mwaonetsadi kukoma mtima kwanu kosasinthika kwa mbuye wanga.
Mad timreni ka awachone nyako moro ni, ‘Asayi, yie dapigi piny mondo mi amodhie,’ kendo ka dowachna ni, ‘modhi kendo abiro chiwo pi ni ngamia-gi duto’ to en ema mondo obed nyako ma iseyierone Isaka jatichni. Kamano anangʼe ni isenyiso ngʼwononi ne ruodha.”
15 Asanatsirize kupemphera, anangoona Rebeka watulukira atasenza mtsuko wake pa phewa. Iyeyu anali mwana wa Betueli mwana wa Milika, mkazi wa Nahori mʼbale wake wa Abrahamu.
Kane pok otieko lemo, Rebeka notucho kotingʼo dapige e goke. Ne en nyar Bethuel wuod Milka, mane chi Nahor owadgi Ibrahim.
16 Mtsikanayo anali wokongola kwambiri, namwali amene sanadziwe mwamuna. Iye anatsikira ku chitsime nadzaza mtsuko nakweranso ku mtunda.
Nyakoni ne en jaber man-gi chia, mapok ongʼeyo dichwo! Nolor e soko, motwomo pi eka odwogo.
17 Wantchito uja anathamanga kukakumana naye nati, “Chonde patseko madzi pangʼono a mu mtsuko wakowo kuti ndimwe.”
Jatich Ibrahim noringo kadhi romone mi owachone niya, “Akwayi, yie imiyae pi mondo amodhi.”
18 Mtsikanayo anati, “Imwani mbuye wanga.” Ndipo mofulumira anatsitsa mtsuko uja nawuyika mʼmanja ndi kumupatsa kuti amwe.
Eka nowacho niya, “Modhi, ruodha” kendo mapiyo nono noloro dapi e lwete momiye pi omodho.
19 Atatha kupereka madzi akumwa kwa mlendo uja, mtsikanayo anati, “Ndikatungiranso ngamira madzi kuti zimwe mpaka zitakwana.”
Bangʼ kane osemiye pi modho, nowachone niya, “Abiro dhi umbo pi ne ngamia magi bende, nyaka gitiek modho.”
20 Choncho anafulumira kukhuthula madzi a mu mtsuko aja momwera ziweto, nathamanga kubwerera ku chitsime kukatunga madzi ena, ndipo anatunga okwanira ngamira zake zonse.
Omiyo noloko pi mapiyo nono e besen, moringo odok e soko omo pi kendo noomo moromo ngamiagego duto.
21 Modekha, munthu uja anayangʼanitsitsa kwambiri mtsikana uja kuti adziwedi ngati Yehova anamutsogolera pa ulendo wake uja kapena ayi.
Jatich Ibrahim nolingʼ thi ma ok owuoyo, karange lingʼ-lingʼ mondo one ane ka Jehova Nyasaye osegwedho wuodhe.
22 Ngamira zija zitatha kumwa, mlendo uja anatulutsa chipini chagolide cholemera theka la sekeli ndi zibangiri zagolide ziwiri zolemera masekeli 100.
Kane ngamia-go osetieko modho, ngʼatno nogolo tere mar um mar dhahabu ma pekne romo achiel kuom apar mar kilo kod bangli ariyo mag dhahabu mapekgi oromo nus kilo.
23 Kenaka anafunsa namwaliyo kuti, “Chonde tandiwuza, kodi ndiwe mwana wa yani? Ndipo kodi malo alipo kwanu woti ife nʼkugona?”
Eka nopenje niya, “In nyar ngʼa? Yie inyisa bende dwayudie kar nindo dalau?”
24 Anamuyankha kuti, “Ine ndine mwana wa Betueli, mwana amene Milika anaberekera Nahori.”
Nodwoke niya, “An nyar Bethuel, ma wuod Nahor gi Milka.”
25 Ndipo anapitiriza kunena kuti, “Chakudya chodyetsa nyamazi chilipo kwathu ndipo malo woti mugone aliponso.”
Kendo nomedo wacho niya, “Wan kod lum kod chiemb ngamia mangʼeny kaachiel gi ot ma unyalo nindoe.”
26 Kenaka munthuyo anawerama pansi napembedza Yehova,
Ngʼatno nopodho auma molamo Jehova Nyasaye,
27 nati, “Alemekezeke Yehova, Mulungu wa mbuye wanga Abrahamu, amene waonetsa kukoma mtima kwake kosasintha ndi kukhulupirika kwake kwa mbuye wanga. Yehova wanditsogolera pa ulendo wanga mpaka ndafika ku nyumba kwa abale ake a mbuye wanga.”
kowacho niya, “Duongʼ odogne Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach ruodha Ibrahim, ma ok oseweyo nyiso adierane gi ngʼwonone ne ruodha. To an, Jehova Nyasaye osetelona e wuoth nyaka e od wede ruodha.”
28 Mtsikana uja anathamanga nakafotokozera zimenezi anthu a kwa amayi ake.
Nyakono noringo modhi onyiso joodgi duto gik mane osetimorene.
29 Tsono Rebeka anali ndi mlongo wake dzina lake Labani.
Rebeka ne nigi owadgi miluongo ni Laban, kendo Laban noringo matek ka dhi ir ngʼatno mane ni e sokono.
30 Iyeyu atangoona chipini pa mphuno ndi zibangiri pa mikono ya mlongo wake komanso kumva zimene mlendo uja ananena kwa Rebekayo, anathamangira kwa mlendo uja, ndipo anamupeza atangoyima ndi ngamira zake pafupi ndi chitsime.
Kane Laban oseneno tere e um nyamin kod bangli ka ni e lwet nyamin kendo kane owinjo gima Rebeka wacho ni ngʼatno onyise, Laban nodhi ir ngʼatno moyude ka ochungʼ e bath ngamia-go machiegni gi soko.
31 Iye anati, “Tiyeni kwathu, ndinu munthu amene Yehova wamudalitsa. Bwanji mwangoyimirira panja pano? Ine ndakukonzerani malo ogona inu ndi ngamira zanu.”
Laban nowachone niya, “Bi, in ngʼama Jehova Nyasaye ogwedho. Angʼo ma omiyo ichungʼ oko ka? Aseikoni ot kendo nitie kar ngamia bende.”
32 Choncho munthu uja analowa mʼnyumba. Labani anatsitsa katundu anali pa ngamira uja. Kenaka anazipatsa ngamira zija chakudya, ndiponso anapereka madzi wosamba mapazi kwa mlendo uja ndi anthu ena onse.
Kuom mano ngʼatno nodonjo e ot kendo misike mane ngamia otingʼo nogol kuomgi. Nomigi lum kod chiembgi mi nokelo pi ne jatich Ibrahim kod joge mondo olwokgo tiendegi.
33 Chakudya chitabwera mlendo uja anati, “Sindidya mpaka nditakuwuzani zimene ndadzera kuno.” Labani anati, “Yankhulani.”
Eka nokel chiemo ne jatich Ibrahim to nowachonegi niya, “Ok abi chiemo kapok anyisou gima onego awachnu.” Laban nowachone niya, “Kara nyiswa.”
34 Motero iye anati, “Ine ndine wantchito wa Abrahamu.
Kuom mano nowacho niya, “An jatich Ibrahim.
35 Yehova wadalitsa mbuye wanga kwambiri, ndiponso walemera. Wamupatsa nkhosa ndi ngʼombe, siliva ndi golide, antchito aamuna ndi antchito aakazi, komanso ngamira ndi abulu.

“Nodwoke ni, ‘Jehova Nyasaye, ma asebedo ka awuotho e nyime biro ori gi malaikane kendo obiro gwedho wuodhi, mondo mi iyudne wuoda nyako moa kuom anywolana kendo e od wuora.

Eka jatich Ibrahim nogolo gik moko mag dhahabu kod mag fedha kod lewni mi nomiyogi Rebeka; kendo nochiwo mich ma nengogi tek ne owadgi kod min-gi.

To owad gi Rebeka kod min-gi nodwoke niya, “We nyakoni odongʼ kodwa kuom ndalo apar kata moloyo kanyo; eka udhi.”
56 Koma iye anawawuza kuti, “Chonde musandichedwetse. Yehova wandithandiza kale pa ulendo wanga. Mundilole ndibwerere kwa mbuye wanga.”
To jatich Ibrahim nowachonegi niya, “Kik ugengʼna, to weyauru adog ir ruodha, nikech Jehova Nyasaye osegwedho wuodha.”
57 Koma iwo anati, “Bwanji timuyitane mtsikanayo ndipo timufunse ngati afuna kupita nanu panopa.”
Eka negiwacho niya, “We waluong nyako mondo wapenje kuom wachni.”

Kuom mano negiluongo Rebeka kendo gipenje niya, “Inyalo dhi gi ngʼatni?” Rebeka nodwokogi niya, “Abiro dhi.”

Kendo negigwedho Rebeka kagiwachone niya, “Nyathiwa, bed min ji gana gi gana; mad nyikwayi medre ma kaw mier madongo mag wasikgi.”
61 Kenaka Rebeka ndi antchito ake ananyamuka kukakwera ngamira zawo ndipo anapita naye pamodzi munthu uja. Choncho wantchito uja anatenga Rebeka nʼkumapita.
