1 Mũthenya ũmwe Jehova nĩ oimĩrĩire Iburahĩmu rĩrĩa aikarĩte mũromo-inĩ wa hema yake hakuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya mĩgandi ya Mamure, ihinda rĩa mĩaraho.
Awia ketee bi a Abraham te ne ntomadan a ɛwɔ Mamrɛ odum kwaeɛ ɛkwan ano no, Awurade yii ne ho adi bio kyerɛɛ no.
2 Na rĩrĩ, Iburahĩmu aatiira maitho-rĩ, akĩona andũ atatũ marũgamĩte o hakuhĩ nake. Rĩrĩa aamoonire, akĩhiũha akiuma mũromo-inĩ wa hema yake, agĩthiĩ kũmatũnga, na agĩturumithia ũthiũ wake thĩ.
Abraham maa nʼani so no, ɔhunuu sɛ mmarima baasa bi apue ne ntentenesoɔ. Ɔhunuu wɔn no, ɔtuu mmirika firii ne ntomadan no kwan ano kɔhyiaa wɔn, kotoo wɔn.
3 Akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathi wakwa, angĩkorwo nĩndetĩkĩrĩka maitho-inĩ maku, ndũkahĩtũke ndungata yaku.
Abraham kaa sɛ, “Me wura, sɛ manya adom wɔ wʼanim a, ntwa me a meyɛ wʼakoa ho nkɔ.
4 Reke tũũĩ tũnini tũrehwo, na inyuĩ inyuothe mwĩthambe magũrũ na mũhurũke kĩĩruru-inĩ kĩa mũtĩ ũyũ.
Momma wɔmfa nsuo bi mmrɛ mo nhohoro mo nan ase, na monhome wɔ nnua yi ase kakra.
5 Na niĩ thiĩ ndĩmũrehere kĩndũ gĩa kũrĩa, nĩgeetha mũcookwo nĩ hinya, kuona atĩ nĩmwagĩũka kwa ndungata yanyu, nĩguo mũcooke mwĩthiĩre.” Makĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega mũno, ĩka o ũguo woiga.”
Moaba mo akoa nkyɛn yi, momma mempɛ aduane kakra bi mma monka mo ano, na monnya ahoɔden nkɔ mo kwan.” Nnipa no penee so kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, yɛ deɛ wopɛ sɛ woyɛ.”
6 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Iburahĩmu akĩhiũha agĩthiĩ hema-inĩ kũrĩ Sara, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Oya ibaba ithatũ cia mũtu ũrĩa mũhinyu wega, ũũkande na ũruge mĩgate naihenya.”
Enti, Abraham de ahoɔherɛ kɔɔ ne yere Sara nkyɛn wɔ ntomadan no mu, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Ka wo ho fa asikyiresiam pa susukora mmiɛnsa, na fɔtɔ na fa to burodo.”
7 Ningĩ Iburahĩmu agĩtengʼera rũũru-inĩ, agĩthuura njaũ njega na njororo, akĩmĩnengera ndungata, nayo ĩkĩmĩthĩnja naihenya.
Afei, Abraham yɛɛ ntɛm kɔɔ nʼanantwibuo no mu, kɔkyeree nantwie ba a ɔyɛ na wadɔre sradeɛ de no maa ne ɔsomfoɔ, ma ɔde ahoɔherɛ yɛɛ ne ho adwuma.
8 Ningĩ Iburahĩmu akĩmarehera iria imata na iria rĩa mwĩtha, na nyama cia njaũ ĩyo yathĩnjĩtwo, agĩciiga hau mbere yao. Nake akĩrũgama hakuhĩ nao mũtĩ-inĩ rĩrĩa maarĩĩaga.
Afei, ɔfaa nufosuo ani sradeɛ ne nufosuo ne nantwie ba a ɔde anoa aduane no, de too nnipa baasa no ɛpono. Ɛberɛ a nnipa no gu so redidie no, na ɔgyina wɔn nkyɛn wɔ nnua no ase.
9 Maarĩkia kũrĩa makĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Sara mũtumia waku-rĩ, arĩ kũ?” Iburahĩmu akĩmacookeria atĩrĩ, “Arĩ kũũrĩa hema thĩinĩ.”
Nnipa no bisaa Abraham sɛ, “Wo yere Sara wɔ he?” Abraham buaa wɔn sɛ, “Ɔwɔ ntomadan no mu.”
10 Nake Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ti-itherũ nĩngooka kũrĩ we rĩngĩ hĩndĩ o ta ĩno mwaka ũyũ ũroka, na Sara mũtumia waku nĩagaciara kaana ga kahĩĩ.” Nake Sara nĩathikagĩrĩria arĩ hau mũromo-inĩ wa hema ĩrĩa yarĩ thuutha wa Iburahĩmu.
Afei, Awurade kaa sɛ, “Deɛ ɛbɛyɛ biara, afe sɛsɛɛ mɛba wo nkyɛn, na mɛba no, na wo yere Sara awo ɔbabarima.” Saa ɛberɛ no, na Sara gyina ntomadan no ɛpono akyiri, retie nkɔmmɔ no.
11 Na rĩrĩ, Iburahĩmu na Sara maarĩ akũrũ na magatindĩka mĩaka yao ma, nake Sara akahĩtũkia mĩaka ya gũciara.
Na Abraham ne Sara nyinaa anyinyini yie a wɔn mfeɛ akɔ animu koraa enti, na Sara awoɔ apa ho.
12 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Sara agĩĩthekera, akĩĩyũria atĩrĩ, “Thuutha wa gũkũra ũũ-rĩ, na mwathi wakwa nĩ mũkũrũ-rĩ, no ngĩgĩe na gĩkeno kĩu?”
Sara tee asɛm no, ɔseree ne tirim, kaa sɛ, “Manya awie aberewabɔ, na me kunu nso abɔ akɔkoraa yi, ɛbɛyɛ sɛn na manya saa anigyedeɛ yi?”
13 Nake Jehova akĩũria Iburahĩmu atĩrĩ, “Nĩ kĩĩ gĩatũma Sara atheke na eyũrie, ‘Ti-itherũ no ngĩe na mwana ndĩ mũkũrũ ũguo?’
Enti, Awurade bisaa Abraham sɛ, “Adɛn enti na Sara sere bisaa sɛ, ‘Ampa ara sɛ manyini aduru seyie yi, mɛtumi awo ba?’
14 Kaĩ kũrĩ ũndũ ũngĩrema Jehova? Mwaka ũyũ ũroka-rĩ, nĩngacooka ihinda rĩrĩa rĩamũre, nake Sara nĩagaciara kaana ga kahĩĩ.”
Biribi boro Awurade ahoɔden so sɛ ɔbɛyɛ? Afe sɛsɛɛ a mɛsane aba sɛdeɛ mahyɛ wo ho bɔ no, na wo yere Sara awo ɔbabarima.”
15 Sara agĩĩtigĩra mũno, nĩ ũndũ ũcio akĩheenania, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndinatheka.” Nowe Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ma nĩwatheka.”
Na Sara suro enti, ɔtwaa atorɔ sɛ, “Mansere.” Nanso, Onyankopɔn kaa sɛ, “Ɛyɛ nokorɛ turodoo sɛ wosereeɛ.”
16 Rĩrĩa andũ acio mookĩrire mathiĩ-rĩ, makĩerekera na Sodomu, nake Iburahĩmu agĩtwarana nao amoimagarie.
Mmarima no kraa sɛ wɔrekɔ no, wɔde wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Sodom. Abraham kɔgyaa wɔn kwan.
17 Hĩndĩ ĩyo Jehova akĩĩyũria atĩrĩ, “No hithe Iburahĩmu ũrĩa ndĩrenda gwĩka?
Afei, Awurade kaa sɛ, “Adeɛ a mabɔ me tirim sɛ mɛyɛ no, memfa nsie Abraham anaa?
18 Ti-itherũ Iburahĩmu nĩagatuĩka rũrĩrĩ rũnene na rwa hinya, na ndũrĩrĩ ciothe cia thĩ nĩikarathimwo nĩ ũndũ wake.
Ɛyɛ nokorɛ turodoo sɛ Abraham bɛyɛ ɔman kɛseɛ a ɛwɔ tumi. Na ɛnam Abraham so na wɔbɛhyira amanaman a ɛwɔ asase so nyinaa.
19 Nĩgũkorwo nĩndĩmũthuurĩte nĩgeetha onagĩrĩrie ciana ciake, na nyũmba yake, na arĩa magooka thuutha wake, kũrũmagia mĩthiĩre ya Jehova na ũndũ wa gwĩkaga ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire, na kĩhooto, nĩgeetha Jehova akaahingĩria Iburahĩmu ũrĩa aamwĩrĩire.”
Ɛfiri sɛ, mapa Abraham sɛ ɔbɛkyerɛkyerɛ ne mma ne ne fiefoɔ Awurade kwan. Na wɔayɛ ade pa ne ade tenenee a ɛsɔ Awurade ani. Sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a Awurade bɔ a ɔhyɛɛ Abraham no bɛba mu.”
20 Ningĩ Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mũkayo wĩgiĩ Sodomu na Gomora nĩ mũnene mũno, naguo wĩhia wao nĩ mũũru mũno.
Afei, Awurade kaa sɛ, “Mate nnebɔne a ɛyɛ duru a ɛrekɔ so wɔ Sodom ne Gomora no.
21 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio niĩ nĩngũikũrũka thiĩ nyone kana ũũru ũrĩa mekĩte nĩũigana ikaya rĩrĩa rĩnginyĩire. Na aakorwo tiguo-rĩ, nĩngũmenya ũrĩa ngwĩka.”
Mɛkɔ hɔ makɔhwɛ sɛ, deɛ wɔyɛ no yɛ bɔne a ɛyɛ duru, sɛdeɛ mate no anaa. Sɛ ɛnte saa nso a, mɛhunu.”
22 Nĩ ũndũ ũcio andũ acio makiuma hau magĩthiĩ merekeire Sodomu, no Iburahĩmu agĩtigwo arũgamĩte mbere ya Jehova.
Na mmarima baasa no mu baanu danee wɔn ani kyerɛɛ Sodom. Nanso, Abraham deɛ, na ɔda so gyina Awurade anim.
23 Nake Iburahĩmu agĩkuhĩrĩria Jehova akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Andũ arĩa athingu ũkũmaniinanĩria hamwe na arĩa aaganu?
Afei, Abraham twe bɛn Onyankopɔn bisaa no sɛ, “Wobɛsɛe nnipa tenenee ne nnipa bɔnefoɔ nyinaa afra anaa?
24 Ĩ kũngĩkorwo kũrĩ na andũ mĩrongo ĩtano athingu itũũra-inĩ rĩu inene? Ti-itherũ no ũrĩniine na ndũrĩhonokie nĩ ũndũ wa andũ acio mĩrongo ĩtano athingu marĩ kuo?
Na sɛ nnipa tenenee aduonum wɔ kuro no mu a wobɛsɛe kuro no a worenhwɛ saa nnipa tenenee aduonum no ho nnyae kuro no sɛeɛ?
25 Ũroaga gwĩka ũndũ ta ũcio, wa kũũraganĩria arĩa athingu hamwe na arĩa aaganu, arĩa athingu na arĩa aaganu ũmataranĩrie ũndũ ũmwe. Ũroaga gwĩka ũndũ ta ũcio! Mũtuanĩri ciira wa thĩ yothe-rĩ, githĩ ndagĩrĩirwo nĩ gwĩka ũrĩa kwagĩrĩire?”
Ɛmpare wo sɛ wobɛyɛ saa, sɛ wobɛkum nnipa tenenee ne nnipa bɔnefoɔ afra, de asotwe korɔ no ara bɛma nnipa tenenee ne nnipa bɔnefoɔ. Ɛmpare wo! Deɛ ɔbu asase nyinaa atɛn no remmu atɛntenenee anaa?”
26 Nake Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ingĩkora andũ mĩrongo ĩtano athingu kũu itũũra rĩu inene rĩa Sodomu-rĩ, nĩngũhonokia kũndũ kũu guothe nĩ ũndũ wao.”
Na Awurade kaa sɛ, “Sɛ mehunu nnipa tenenee aduonum wɔ Sodom kuro no mu a, wɔn enti, merensɛe kuro no.”
27 Ningĩ Iburahĩmu akĩaria rĩngĩ, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Rĩu tondũ nĩngĩĩũmĩrĩirie nginya ndaaria na Mwathani, o na gũtuĩka ndĩ o rũkũngũ na mũhu-rĩ, atĩrĩ,
Na Abraham bisaa sɛ, “Afei, me a meyɛ nsõ ne dɔteɛ a mensɛ hwee, nanso masi me bo ne Awurade akasa yi,
28 ĩ hangĩaga andũ atano a acio mĩrongo ĩtano athingu? Nĩ ũngĩniina itũũra rĩu inene rĩothe nĩ ũndũ wa kwaga acio atano?” Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ingĩkora andũ mĩrongo ĩna na atano kuo, ndikũrĩniina.”
sɛ ɛba sɛ nnipa tenenee no dodoɔ yɛ aduanan enum nso ɛ? Esiane saa nnipa enum a wɔafiri nnipa tenenee aduonum no so ama aka nnipa tenenee aduanan enum no enti, wobɛsɛe kuro mu no nyinaa anaa?” Onyankopɔn buaa sɛ, “Sɛ mehunu nnipa tenenee aduanan enum wɔ kuro no mu a, merensɛe no.”
29 O rĩngĩ Iburahĩmu akĩmwarĩria akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Ĩ ũngĩkora andũ mĩrongo ĩna tu kuo?” Nake akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa acio mĩrongo ĩna-rĩ, ndikũrĩniina.”
Abraham toaa nʼadebisa no so sɛ, “Sɛ ɛba sɛ, nnipa tenenee aduanan pɛ na wɔwɔ kuro no mu ɛ?” Na Awurade buaa Abraham sɛ, “Nnipa tenenee aduanan no enti, merensɛe kuro no.”
30 Ningĩ Iburahĩmu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani aroaga kũrakara, no areke njarie. Ĩ ũngĩkora andũ mĩrongo ĩtatũ kuo?” Nake akĩmũcookeria atĩrĩ, “Ndikũrĩniina ingĩkora andũ mĩrongo ĩtatũ kuo.”
Abraham kɔɔ so srɛɛ bio sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, Awurade, mma wo bo mfu me, ma menkasa. Sɛ ɛba sɛ nnipa tenenee aduasa na wɔwɔ kuro no mu nso ɛ?” Awurade buaa sɛ, “Sɛ mehunu nnipa tenenee aduasa a, merensɛe kuro no.”
31 Iburahĩmu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Rĩu tondũ nĩngĩĩũmĩrĩirie nginya ndaaria na Mwathani-rĩ, ĩ kũngĩoneka o andũ mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ kuo?” Nake Jehova akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa acio mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, ndikũrĩniina.”
Afei, Abraham bisaa sɛ, “Masi me bo ne Awurade akasa yi, ɛba sɛ nnipa tenenee aduonu pɛ na wɔwɔ kuro no mu ɛ?” Onyankopɔn buaa sɛ, “Saa nnipa tenenee aduonu no enti, merensɛe kuro no.”
32 Ningĩ akiuga atĩrĩ, “Mwathani aroaga kũrakara no areke njarie rĩngĩ rĩmwe. Ĩ kũngĩoneka o andũ ikũmi kuo?” Nake Jehova agĩcookia, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩ ũndũ wa acio ikũmi-rĩ, ndikũrĩniina.”
Abraham kɔɔ so bisaa sɛ, “Ao, Awurade, mma wo bo mfu me; ma memmisa mʼasɛm baako pɛ a ɛtwa toɔ. Sɛ ɛba sɛ, nnipa tenenee edu na wɔwɔ kuro no mu nso ɛ?” Awurade buaa sɛ, “Saa nnipa tenenee edu no enti, merensɛe kuro no.”
33 Rĩrĩa Jehova aarĩkirie kwaria na Iburahĩmu, agĩĩthiĩra, nake Iburahĩmu agĩcooka mũciĩ.
Ɛberɛ a Awurade ne Abraham kasa wieeɛ no, ɔgyaa Abraham hɔ kɔeɛ. Abraham nso sane kɔɔ nʼatenaeɛm.
