Farawa 22
1 Bayan abubuwan nan suka faru, sai Allah ya gwada Ibrahim. Ya ce masa, “Ibrahim!” Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
Emva kwesikhathi esithile uNkulunkulu walinga u-Abhrahama. Wathi kuye, “Abhrahama!” Waphendula wathi, “Ngilapha.”
2 Sai Allah ya ce, “Ka ɗauki ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka Ishaku, wanda kake ƙauna, ka tafi yankin Moriya, ka miƙa shi hadaya ta ƙonawa a can a kan ɗaya daga cikin duwatsun da zan nuna maka.”
UNkulunkulu wasesithi, “Thatha indodana yakho, indodana yakho eyiyo yodwa, u-Isaka, omthandayo, uye emangweni waseMoriya. Khonapho menze umhlatshelo abe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa phezu kwenye yezintaba engizakutshengisa yona.”
3 Kashegari da sassafe, Ibrahim ya tashi ya ɗaura wa jakinsa sirdi. Ya ɗauki bayinsa biyu, da ɗansa Ishaku. Bayan ya faskare isashen itace saboda hadaya ta ƙonawa sai ya kama hanya zuwa wurin da Allah ya faɗa masa.
Kusisa ekuseni kakhulu u-Abhrahama wavuka wabopha ubabhemi wakhe. Wahamba lezinceku zakhe ezimbili kanye lendodana yakhe u-Isaka. Kwathi esegamule inkuni ezaneleyo zomnikelo wokutshiswa, waqhubeka waya kuleyondawo uNkulunkulu ayemtshele yona.
4 A rana ta uku Ibrahim ya ɗaga ido sai ya ga wurin daga nesa.
Ngelanga lesithathu u-Abhrahama wakhangela, wayibona leyondawo kude le.
5 Ibrahim ya ce wa bayinsa, “Ku tsaya a nan da jakin, ni da yaron kuwa mu haura can. Za mu yi sujada sa’an nan mu komo wurinku.”
Wathi ezincekwini zakhe, “Hlalani lapha lobabhemi, mina lomfana sisake siye laphayana. Sizakuthi singakhonza sibuye kini.”
6 Ibrahim ya ɗauki itace saboda hadaya ta ƙonawa ya ɗora wa ɗansa Ishaku, shi kuwa ya riƙe wuƙa da wutar. Yayinda su biyun suke tafiya,
U-Abhrahama wathatha inkuni zomnikelo wokutshiswa wazithwalisa umntanakhe u-Isaka, yena ngokwakhe waphatha umlilo lengqamu. Kwathi belokhu beqhubeka bobabili,
7 sai Ishaku ya yi tambaya, ya ce wa mahaifinsa Ibrahim, “Baba?” Ibrahim ya ce masa, “Na’am ɗana!” Ishaku ya ce, “Ga dai wuta, ga kuma itace, amma ina ɗan ragon hadaya ta ƙonawa?”
u-Isaka wakhuluma wambuza uyise u-Abhrahama wathi, “Baba?” U-Abhrahama wasabela wathi, “Yebo, ndodana yami!” U-Isaka wathi, “Umlilo lenkuni nanku kukhona, kodwa iwundlu lomnikelo wokutshiswa lingaphi?”
8 Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ɗana, Allah kansa zai tanada ɗan ragon hadayar ƙonawa.” Sai su biyu suka ci gaba da tafiya.
U-Abhrahama waphendula wathi, “Ndodana yami, uNkulunkulu ngokwakhe uzasipha iwundlu lomnikelo wokutshiswa.” Baqhubeka bobabili bahamba.
9 Sa’ad da suka isa wurin da Allah ya faɗa masa, sai Ibrahim ya gina bagade a can, ya kuma shisshirya itacen a kai. Ya ɗaura ɗansa Ishaku, ya kwantar da shi a kan itacen, a bisa bagaden.
Sebefikile endaweni uNkulunkulu amtshela yona, u-Abhrahama wakha i-Alithari khonapho walungisa inkuni phezu kwalo. Wabopha indodana yakhe u-Isaka wayilalisa e-alithareni phezu kwenkuni.
10 Sa’an nan Ibrahim ya miƙa hannunsa ya ɗauki wuƙar don yă yanka ɗansa.
Waseselula isandla sakhe ethatha ingqamu ukuba abulale indodana yakhe.
11 Amma mala’ikan Ubangiji ya kira shi daga sama ya ce, “Ibrahim, Ibrahim!” Sai Ibrahim ya amsa ya ce, “Ga ni.”
Kodwa ingilosi kaThixo yamemeza isezulwini yathi, “Abhrahama! Abhrahama!” Waphendula wathi, “Ngilapha.”
12 Mala’ikan ya ce, “Kada ka yi wa yaron nan rauni. Kada kuma ka ji masa ciwo. Yanzu na san cewa kana tsoron Allah, gama ba ka hana ni ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka ba.”
Yathi, “Ungamthinti ngesandla sakho umfana. Ungenzi lutho kuye. Khathesi sengisazi ukuthi uyamesaba uNkulunkulu, ngoba kawuyigodlanga indodana yakho eyiyo yodwa.”
13 Ibrahim ya ɗaga ido, ya duba, sai ya ga rago da ƙahoninsa a kafe a wani ɗan kurmi. Sai Ibrahim ya tafi ya kamo ragon ya miƙa shi hadaya ta ƙonawa a maimakon ɗansa.
U-Abhrahama wathi uyakhangela wabona inqama esixukwini ibanjwe ngempondo zayo. Waya khona wayithatha inqama wenza umhlatshelo womnikelo wokutshiswa esikhundleni sendodana yakhe.
14 Ibrahim kuwa ya ba wa wurin suna, Ubangiji Zai Tanada. Gama kamar yadda ake ce har yă zuwa yau, “A bisan dutsen Ubangiji, za a tanada.”
Yikho u-Abhrahama wabiza indawo leyo ngokuthi uThixo Uzakupha. Kuze kube lamuhla kuthiwa, “Entabeni kaThixo kuzaphiwa.”
15 Mala’ikan Ubangiji ya kira Ibrahim daga sama sau na biyu
Ingilosi kaThixo yabiza u-Abhrahama isezulwini ngokwesibili
16 ya ce, “Na rantse da kaina, in ji Ubangiji, domin ka yi wannan, ba ka kuwa hana ni ɗanka, makaɗaicin ɗanka ba,
yathi, “Ngifunga ngami uqobo, kutsho uThixo, ukuthi ngenxa yokuthi ukwenzile lokhu, kawaze wayigodla indodana yakho eyiyo yodwa,
17 tabbatacce zan albarkace ka, zan kuma sa zuriyarka su yi yawa kamar taurari a sararin sama, kamar kuma yashi a bakin teku. Zuriyarka za su mallaki biranen abokan gābansu,
ngempela ngizakubusisa ngenze izizukulwane zakho zibe zinengi njengezinkanyezi emkhathini lanjengetshebetshebe okhunjini lolwandle. Izizukulwane zakho zizawathatha amadolobho ezitha zazo,
18 ta wurin zuriyarka kuma dukan al’umman duniya za su sami albarka, domin ka yi mini biyayya.”
kuthi ngenzalo yakho zonke izizwe zomhlaba zizabusiswa, ngoba ungilalele.”
19 Sa’an nan Ibrahim ya koma wurin bayinsa, suka kuma kama hanya tare zuwa Beyersheba. Ibrahim kuwa ya yi zamansa a Beyersheba.
Emva kwalokho u-Abhrahama wabuyela ezincekwini zakhe, basebehamba bonke eBherishebha. U-Abhrahama wahlala eBherishebha.
20 Bayan wani ɗan lokaci, sai aka faɗa wa Ibrahim cewa, “Ga shi, Milka ita ma ta haifa wa Nahor ɗan’uwanka,’ya’ya maza;
Emva kwesikhathi esithile u-Abhrahama watshelwa ukuthi, “UMilikha laye uselabantwana; sewazalela umfowenu uNahori amadodana:
21 ɗan fari shi ne Uz, ɗan’uwansa kuma Buz, Kemuwel (shi ne mahaifin Aram),
u-Uzi izibulo, uBhuzi umfowabo, uKhemuweli (uyise ka-Aramu),
22 Kesed, Hazo, Fildash; Yidlaf, da kuma Betuwel.”
uKhesedi, uHazo, uPhilidashi, uJidilafu loBhethuweli.”
23 Betuwel ya haifi Rebeka. Milka ta haifa wa Nahor ɗan’uwan Ibrahim waɗannan’ya’ya maza takwas.
UBhethuweli wazala uRabheka. UMilikha wazala amadodana la ayisificaminwembili loNahori umfowabo ka-Abhrahama.
24 Ban da haka ma, ƙwarƙwararsa, mai suna Reyuma, ta haifa masa’ya’ya maza, Teba, Gaham, Tahash da kuma Ma’aka.
Umfazi wakhe omncane owayethiwa nguRewuma laye wayelamadodana la: uThebha, uGahamu, uThahashi kanye loMahakha.
