< Farawa 17 >
1 Sa’ad da Abram ya yi shekaru 99, sai Ubangiji ya bayyana a gare shi ya ce, ni “Ni ne Allah Maɗaukaki, ka yi tafiya a gabana ka kuma zama marar abin zargi.
Pea ʻi he hivangofulu ma hiva taʻu ʻoe motuʻa ʻo ʻEpalame naʻe hā mai ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpalame, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko au, ko e ʻOtua Māfimafi; ke ke ʻeveʻeva ʻi hoku ʻao, pea ke haohaoa.
2 Zan tabbatar da alkawarina tsakanina da kai, zan kuma ƙara zuriyarka ta yi yawa.”
Pea te u fai ʻa ʻeku fuakava ʻiate koe mo au, pea te u fakatokolahi ʻaupito koe.”
3 Abram ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, Allah kuma ya ce masa,
Pea tō foʻohifo ʻa ʻEpalame ki he kelekele pea folofola ʻae ʻOtua kiate ia, ʻo pehē;
4 “Gare ni kam, wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai, za ka zama mahaifin al’ummai masu yawa.
“Ko au eni, Vakai, ʻoku ʻiate koe ʻeku fuakava, pea te ke hoko ko e tamai ki he ngaahi puleʻanga lahi;
5 Ba za a ƙara kiranka Abram ba; sunanka zai zama Ibrahim, gama na mai da kai uban al’ummai masu yawa.
Pea ʻe ʻikai toe ui ho hingoa ko ʻEpalame, ka ko ʻEpalahame ho hingoa, he kuo u ngaohi koe “ko e tamai ki he ngaahi puleʻanga lahi.”
6 Zan sa ka azurta sosai, zan yi al’ummai daga cikinka, sarakuna kuma za su fito daga cikinka,
Pea te u ngaohi koe ke ke tupu ʻo tokolahi ʻaupito, pea te u ngaohi ʻae ngaahi puleʻanga lahi ʻiate koe, pea ʻe tupu ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻiate koe.
7 zan kafa alkawarina kamar madawwamin alkawari tsakanina da kai da kuma zuriyarka bayanka har tsararraki masu zuwa, in zama Allahnka da kuma Allahn zuriyarka a bayanka.
Pea te u fakamaau ʻeku fuakava kiate koe, mo ho hako ʻe tupu ʻiate koe ʻamui, ʻi heʻenau ngaahi toʻutangata, ko e fuakava taʻengata, ke u ʻiate koe, ko e ʻOtua, pea ki ho hako ki mui ʻiate koe.
8 Dukan ƙasar Kan’ana inda kake baƙo a yanzu, zan ba da ita a matsayin madawwamiyar mallaka gare ka da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, zan kuma zama Allahnsu.”
Pea te u foaki kiate koe, pea mo ho hako ʻe hoko mo koe, ʻae fonua ʻoku ke ʻāunofo ki ai, ʻio ʻae fonua kotoa pē ʻo Kēnani, ko e tofiʻa taʻengata; pea teu ʻiate kinautolu ko honau ʻOtua.”
9 Sa’an nan Allah ya ce wa Ibrahim. “Kai fa, sai ka kiyaye alkawarina, kai da zuriyarka bayanka, har tsararraki masu zuwa.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kia ʻEpalahame, “Ko ia te ke tauhi ai ʻeku fuakava, ʻa koe mo ho hako ʻe hoko mo koe ʻi honau ngaahi toʻutangata.
10 Wannan shi ne alkawarina da kai da kuma zuriyarka a bayanka, alkawarin da za ka kiyaye ke nan. Kowane namiji a cikinku kuwa za a yi masa kaciya.
Ko eni ʻa ʻeku fuakava, ʻaia te mou tauhi, kiate au mo kimoutolu mo ho hako ʻe tupu ʻamui ʻiate koe; E kamu ʻae tamasiʻi tangata kotoa pē ʻoku ʻiate kimoutolu.
11 Za ku yi kaciya, za tă kuma zama alamar alkawari tsakanina da kai.
Pea te mou kamu ʻae kili ʻo homou potu; pea ko e fakaʻilonga ia ʻoe fuakava kiate au mo kimoutolu.
12 Daga yanzu duk namijin da aka haifa a cikinku za a yi masa kaciya a rana ta takwas har dukan zamananku, ko haifaffen gida ne, ko sayayye da kuɗi daga kowane baƙo wanda ba na zuriyarku ba.
Pea ko ia ʻiate kimoutolu ʻoku ʻaho valu hono motuʻa ʻe kamu ia, ʻae tama tangata kotoa pē ʻi homou ngaahi toʻutangata, ko ia kuo fanauʻi ho fale, mo ia ʻoku ʻikai ʻi hoʻo fānau, ka kuo fakatauʻaki hoʻo koloa mei he muli.
13 Ko haifaffe a gidanka ko an sayo da kuɗi, dole a yi musu kaciya. Alkawarina cikin jikinku zai kasance madawwamin alkawari.
Ko ia ʻe tupu ʻi ho fale, mo ia kuo fakatauʻaki hoʻo koloa ke ke kamu ia; pea ʻe ʻi homou sino ʻeku fuakava, ko e fuakava taʻengata ia.
14 Kowane namijin da ba a yi masa kaciya a jiki ba, za a fid da shi daga cikin mutanensa; domin ya karya alkawarina.”
Pea ko e tamasiʻi taʻekamu, ʻe motuhi ʻae laumālie ko ia mei hono kakai; he kuo ne siʻaki ʻeku fuakava.”
15 Allah ya kuma ce wa Ibrahim, “Game da Saira matarka kuwa, ba za ka ƙara kiranta Saira ba, sunanta zai zama Saratu.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe he ʻOtua kia ʻEpalahame, “Pea koeʻuhi ko Selai ko ho uaifi, ʻe ʻikai te ke ui hono hingoa ko Selai, ka ko Sela hono hingoa.
16 Zan sa mata albarka, ban da haka ma, zan ba ka ɗa ta wurinta, zan sa mata albarka, za tă kuwa zama mahaifiyar al’ummai; sarakunan mutane za su fito daga gare ta.”
Pea te u tāpuaki ia, ʻo tuku kiate koe ʻae foha ʻiate ia; ʻio, te u tāpuaki ia, pea ʻe hoko ia, ko e faʻē ki he ngaahi puleʻanga; ʻe tupu ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi tuʻi ʻoe kakai.”
17 Ibrahim ya rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa, ya yi dariya, ya ce wa kansa, “Za a haifi ɗa wa mutum mai shekaru ɗari? Saratu za tă haifi ɗa tana da shekaru tasa’in?”
Pea tō foʻohifo ai ʻa ʻEpalahame ki he kelekele pea kata, ʻo ne pehē ʻi hono loto, “E tupu ha tama ʻiate ia ʻoku teau taʻu hono motuʻa? Pea ʻe feitama ʻa Sela, ʻaia ʻoku hivangofulu hono taʻu?
18 Ibrahim ya kuma ce wa Allah, “Me zai hana a dai bar Ishmayel kawai yă gāji alkawarin nan da ka yi mini.”
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻEpalahame ki he ʻOtua, ʻofa ke moʻui ʻa ʻIsimeʻeli ʻi ho ʻao.”
19 Sai Allah ya ce, “Duk da haka dai, matarka Saratu za tă haifi maka ɗa; za ka kuma kira shi Ishaku. A kansa zan tabbatar da madawwamin alkawarina, da kuma ga zuriyarsa da za su zo bayansa.
Pea pehē ʻe he ʻOtua, “Ko e moʻoni ʻe fanauʻi ʻe ho uaifi ko Sela, ha tama kiate koe; pea te ke ui hono hingoa ko ʻAisake: pea te u fakamaau ʻeku fuakava kiate ia, ko e fuakava taʻengata pea mo hono hako ʻe hoko mo ia.
20 Game da Ishmayel kuwa, na ji ka. Tabbatacce zan albarkace shi, zan sa yă azurta, zai kuma ƙaru ƙwarai. Zai zama mahaifin masu mulki goma sha biyu, zan kuma maishe shi babban al’umma!
Pea koeʻuhi ko ʻIsimeʻeli, kuo u fanongo kiate koe; “Vakai, kuo u tāpuaki ia, pea te u ngaohi ke tokolahi ʻaupito ia; te ne fakatupu ʻae ʻeiki ʻe toko hongofulu ma toko ua, pea te u ngaohi ia ko e puleʻanga lahi.
21 Amma dai zan kafa alkawarina da Ishaku wanda Saratu za tă haifa maka war haka shekara mai zuwa.”
Ka ko ʻeku fuakava te u fakamaau ia kia ʻAisake, ʻaia ʻe fanauʻi ʻe Sela kiate koe, ʻi he kuonga totonu ʻi he taʻu ʻe hoko mai ni.”
22 Da ya gama magana da Ibrahim, sai Allah ya tashi daga gare shi.
Pea ngata ai ʻene lea kiate ia, pea hāʻele hake ʻae ʻOtua meia ʻEpalahame.
23 A wannan rana, Ibrahim ya ɗauki ɗansa Ishmayel da dukan waɗanda aka haifa cikin gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗinsa, ya kuwa yi wa kowane namiji a cikin gidansa kaciya kamar yadda Allah ya faɗa masa.
Pea ʻave ʻe ʻEpalahame hono foha ko ʻIsimeʻeli, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fāʻele ʻi hono fale, mo kinautolu kotoa pē naʻe fakatauʻaki ʻene koloa: ʻae tama tangata kotoa pē ʻi he fale ʻo ʻEpalahame; ʻo ne kamu ʻakinautolu ʻi he ʻaho ko ia, ʻo hangē ko ia naʻe folofolaʻaki ʻe he ʻOtua kiate ia.
24 Ibrahim yana da shekara tasa’in da tara sa’ad da aka yi masa kaciya,
Pea naʻe hivangofulu ma hiva taʻu ʻae motuʻa ʻo ʻEpalahame, ʻi hono kamu.
25 Ishmayel ɗansa kuma yana da shekara goma sha uku.
Pea naʻe hongofulu ma tolu taʻu hono foha ko ʻIsimeʻeli, ʻi he kamu ʻae kili ʻo hono potu.
26 Aka yi wa Ibrahim da ɗansa Ishmayel kaciya a rana ɗaya.
ʻI he ʻaho pe taha ko ia naʻe kamu ai ʻa ʻEpalahame mo hono foha ko ʻIsimeʻeli,
27 Aka yi wa kowane namiji a gidan Ibrahim kaciya, da waɗanda aka haifa a gidansa, da waɗanda aka sayo da kuɗi daga baƙo.
Pea mo e tangata kotoa pē ʻo hono fale, naʻe tupu ʻi hono fale, pe fakatauʻaki ʻene koloa mei he muli, naʻa nau kamu kotoa pē mo ia.
