Genesis 21
1 The Lord came to help Sarah as he'd said he would. The Lord did for Sarah what he'd promised.
Zvino Jehovha akaitira Sara nyasha sezvaakanga areva, uye Jehovha akaitira Sara zvaakanga avimbisa.
2 She became pregnant and had a son for Abraham when he was old, at the exact time God said she would.
Sara akava nemimba uye akaberekera Abhurahama mwanakomana munguva yokukwegura kwake, panguva chaiyo yakanga yavimbiswa naMwari.
3 Abraham named their son Isaac.
Abhurahama akatumidza mwanakomana waakaberekerwa naSara zita rokuti Isaka.
4 Abraham circumcised him when Isaac was eight days old, following God's command.
Mwanakomana wake Isaka paakanga ava namazuva masere okuberekwa, Abhurahama akamudzingisa, sezvaakanga arayirwa naMwari.
5 Abraham was 100 when Isaac was born.
Abhurahama akanga ava namakore okuberekwa zana paakaberekerwa mwanakomana wake Isaka.
6 Sarah declared, “God has made me laugh, and all those who hear about this will laugh with me.”
Sara akati, “Mwari andivigira kuseka, uye vose vachanzwa nezvazvo vachaseka neni.”
7 She also said, “Would anyone have announced to Abraham that Sarah was going to have children to nurse? But now I have had a son for Abraham even when he was old!”
Uye akatizve, “Ndianiko aizoti kuna Abhurahama, Sara achazorera vana? Asi ndamuberekera mwanakomana panguva yokukwegura kwake.”
8 The baby grew up, and on the day Isaac was weaned Abraham held a large feast.
Mwana akakura uye akarumurwa, uye pazuva rakarumurwa Isaka, Abhurahama akaita mutambo mukuru.
9 But Sarah noticed that Ishmael, Hagar the Egyptian's son she'd had for Abraham, was making fun of Isaac.
Asi Sara akaona mwanakomana akanga aberekerwa Abhurahama naHagari muIjipita achiseka,
10 So she went to Abraham and told him, “You have to get rid of this slave woman and this son of hers! A slave woman's son is not going to be one of your heirs and inherit together with my son Isaac!”
ndokubva ati kuna Abhurahama, “Dzinga mukadzi murandakadzi uyo nomwanakomana wake, nokuti mwanakomana womurandakadzi uyo haangatongogovani nhaka nomwanakomana wangu Isaka.”
11 Abraham felt very bad about it because Ishmael was his son.
Nyaya iyi yakatambudza Abhurahama zvikuru kwazvo nokuti yaiva nechokuita nomwanakomana wake.
12 But God told Abraham, “Don't feel bad about the boy and the slave woman. Do whatever Sarah tells you, because it's through Isaac that your descendants will be counted.
Asi Mwari akati kwaari, “Usanyanya kutambudzika hako pamusoro pomukomana uye napamusoro pomurandakadzi wako. Teerera zvaunoudzwa naSara, nokuti muna Isaka ndimo muchaverengerwa vana vako.
13 Don't worry—I will also make the son of the slave woman into a nation because he's your son.”
Ndichaitawo rudzi kubudikidza nomwanakomana womurandakadzi, nokuti naiyewo mwana wako.”
14 Abraham got up early the next morning. He packed up some food and a skin of water which he gave to Hagar, putting them on her shoulder. Then he sent her and the boy away. She left and wandered through the Desert of Beersheba.
Mangwanani akatevera, Abhurahama akatora zvokudya neguchu redehwe rine mvura akazvipa kuna Hagari. Akazviisa pamapfudzi ake ipapo akamuendesa pamwe chete nomukomana. Akaenda uye akadzungaira ari mugwenga reBheerishebha.
15 When the water ran out, she left the boy under one of the bushes.
Mvura yaiva muguchu redehwe yakati yapera, akaisa mukomana pasi pegwenzi.
16 She went and sat down some way off, a few hundred yards away, saying, “I can't bear to watch my son die!” As she sat down she burst into tears.
Ipapo akabvapo akandogara pedyo naipapo, nhambwe inenge ingasvika museve, nokuti akafunga mumwoyo make akati, “Handingatariri mukomana achifa.” Uye agere pedyo ipapo akatanga kuchema.
17 God heard the boy's cries, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and asked her, “What's the matter, Hagar? Don't be afraid! God has heard the boy crying from where he is.
Mwari akanzwa mukomana achichema, uye mutumwa waMwari akadana Hagari kubva kudenga akati kwaari, “Zvaita seiko Hagari? Usatya; Mwari anzwa kuchema kwomukomana paakavata apo.
18 Get up, go over and help the boy up, and encourage him, for I will make him into a great nation.”
Simudza mukomana umubate noruoko, nokuti ndichamuita rudzi rukuru.”
19 God opened her eyes and she saw a well nearby. She went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink.
Ipapo Mwari akasvinudza meso ake uye akaona tsime remvura. Saka akaenda akandozadza guchu nemvura ndokubva apa mukomana kuti anwe.
20 God blessed Ishmael and he grew up, living in the desert. He became a skilled archer.
Mwari akava nomukomana pakukura kwake. Akagara mugwenga akazova munhu aipfura nouta.
21 He lived in the Desert of Paran. His mother chose a wife for him from the land of Egypt.
Paakanga achigara mugwenga reParani, mai vake vakamutsvakira mukadzi aibva kuIjipiti.
22 Around this time Abimelech came with Phicol, the commander of his army, to see Abraham. “God blesses you in everything you do,” Abimelech said.
Panguva iyoyo Abhimereki naPikori mukuru wamauto ake, akati kuna Abhurahama, “Mwari anewe pazvinhu zvose zvaunoita.
23 “So swear to me right here and now that you won't betray me, my children, or my descendants. In the same way I've proved I'm trustworthy to you, do the same to me and my country where you're currently living.”
Zvino ndipikire pano pamberi paMwari kuti hauzondinyengeri ini, kana vana vangu kana zvizvarwa zvangu. Ndiitirei tsitsi ini nenyika yaugere mairi somutorwa, kuti sezvandakakuitira tsitsi uchaita zvimwe chetezvo newewo.”
24 “I so swear,” Abraham replied.
Abhurahama akati, “Ndinopika.”
25 Then Abraham raised an issue with Abimelech of a well that Abimelech's servants had taken by force.
Ipapo Abhurahama akamhanʼara kuna Abhimereki pamusoro petsime remvura rakanga ratorwa navaranda vaAbhimereki.
26 “I don't know who did this, and you didn't mention it before. I haven't heard anything about it until today,” Abimelech responded.
Asi Abhimereki akati, “Handizivi akaita izvozvo. Iwe hauna kundiudza, uye ndatozvinzwa izvozvo nhasi chaiye.”
27 Then Abraham gave Abimelech some of his sheep and cattle, and the two of them made an agreement.
Saka Abhurahama akauya namakwai nemombe akazvipa kuna Abhimereki, uye varume vaviri ava vakaita sungano.
28 Abraham also separated out seven female lambs from the flock.
Abhurahama akatsaura sheche nomwe dzamakwayana kubva kuboka,
29 “What are these seven female lambs for that you've separated from the flock?” Abimelech asked.
uye Abhimereki akabvunza Abhurahama akati, “Sheche dzamakwai idzi dzawatsaura dzinoreveiko?”
30 “I'm giving you these seven female lambs in return for your admission that I dug this well,” Abraham replied.
Akapindura achiti, “Gamuchira makwayana manomwe aya kubva muruoko rwangu sechapupu chokuti ndini ndakachera tsime iri.”
31 That's why he called the place Beersheba, because the two of them swore and oath to each other.
Saka nzvimbo iyo yakanzi Bheerishebha, nokuti varume vaviri ava vakapika mhiko ipapo.
32 After making the agreement at Beersheba, Abimelech and Phicol the commander of his army left and went home to the country of the Philistines.
Mushure mokuitwa kwesungano paBheerishebha, Abhimereki naPikori mukuru wamauto ake vakadzokera kunyika yavaFiristia.
33 Abraham planted a tamarisk tree in Beersheba and there he worshiped the Lord, the Eternal God.
Abhurahama akadyara muti womutamarisiki muBheerishebha, uye ipapo akadana kuzita raJehovha, Mwari Wokusingaperi.
34 Abraham lived in the country of the Philistines for a long time.
Uye Abhurahama akagara munyika yavaFiristia kwenguva refu.
