Jenesis 20

1 Abrahamu'a maka feno zama'a enerino kumara atreno, Negev kaziga vuno Gerar umani'ne. Ana kumara Kadesine, Surine amu'nompi me'ne.

Now Abraham journeyed from there to the region of the Negev and settled between Kadesh and Shur. While he was staying in Gerar,

2 Hagi Abrahamu'a nenaro Serankura amanage huno zamasmine, Ama nensaro mani'ne. Higeno Gerari kumate kini ne' Abimeleki'ma ana nanekema nentahino'a, eri'za vahe'a huzmantege'za Serana ome avre'za eme ami'naze.

Abraham said of his wife Sarah, “She is my sister.” So Abimelech king of Gerar had Sarah brought to him.

3 Hianagi ana kenagera Anumzamo'a ava'nafi Abimelekina amanage huno eme asmi'ne, Antahio vereti a' avre'za eme kami'nazankinka frigahane.

One night, however, God came to Abimelech in a dream and told him, “You are as good as dead because of the woman you have taken, for she is a married woman.”

4 Higeno Abimeleki'a Sera'enema omase'negu huno amanage hu'ne. Ra Anumzamoka mago ke'a omane'nesia vahera knare amane kuma'ane naga'anena zamahe fanane hugahano?

Now Abimelech had not gone near her, so he replied, “Lord, would You destroy a nation even though it is innocent?

5 Abrahamu'a agra nasmino, ama ara nensaro'e nehigeno, Sera'a Abrahamunkura nagra nesarone huno hu'ne. E'ina hu'negu Serama avre'za eme nenamizage'na nagra nagu'areti'ene antahi antahini'areti'ene fatgo avu'ava hu'noe hu'na nagesa antahi'noe.

Didn’t Abraham tell me, ‘She is my sister’? And she herself said, ‘He is my brother.’ I have done this in the integrity of my heart and the innocence of my hands.”

6 Higeno Anumzamo'a ava'nafina amanage huno Abimelekina asami'ne, Tamage hane, Nagra antahi'noe, kagra fatgo antahintahi antahinenka, anazana hu'nane. E'ina hu'nanke'na Nagra kase hugantogenka Serana avako osu'nane. E'igu kefozana osu'nane.

Then God said to Abimelech in the dream, “Yes, I know that you did this with a clear conscience, and so I have kept you from sinning against Me. That is why I did not let you touch her.

7 Hianagi ama a'mofo neve'a kasnampa ne' mani'neanki, huntegeno neve hirega vino. Nevanigeno negeno kagrama fri'zankura nunamu huno kza hino. Hanki hunte'nankeno ovaniana, kagrane maka'a naga kanena frigahaze.

Now return the man’s wife, for he is a prophet; he will pray for you and you will live. But if you do not restore her, be aware that you will surely die—you and all who belong to you.”

8 Nanterame Abimeleki'a maka kva vahera ke hige'za eme atru hazageno, Anumzamo'ma ava'nafima asami'nea nanekea huama huno zamasmi'ne. Nezamasmige'za nentahi'za, tusi'za hu'za zamagogogu hu'naze.

Early the next morning Abimelech got up and summoned all his servants; and when he described to them all that had happened, the men were terrified.

9 Abimeleki'a ke higeno Abrahamu'a egeno amanage huno antahige'ne. Kagra naza hurante'nane? Nagra kagrira mago'a kumira hugante'nogenka amanahu havizana kumani'ane vahe'nianena hurantano? Amanahu avu'avazama hanana, fatgo osu avu'ava hane.

Then Abimelech called Abraham and asked, “What have you done to us? How have I sinned against you, that you have brought such tremendous guilt upon me and my kingdom? You have done things to me that should not be done.”

10 Nehuno Abimeleki'a amanage huno Abrahamuna asami'ne. Kagra nankna antahintahi hunka amanahu'zana hu'nane?

Abimelech also asked Abraham, “What prompted you to do such a thing?”

11 Higeno Abrahamu'a kenona amanage hu'ne, Na'ankure nagra amanage hu'na nagesa antahi'noe, ama kumapina Anumzamofonkura koro nosazanki'za, zamagra a'ni'areku hu'za nahe nefri'za a'nia erigahaze nehu'na anara hu'noe.

Abraham replied, “I thought to myself, ‘Surely there is no fear of God in this place. They will kill me on account of my wife.’

12 Hanki ami ara nenfa mofa nensaro mani'ne. Ana hu'neanagi nenrera mofa omani'negu huno a'ni'a mani'ne.

Besides, she really is my sister, the daughter of my father—though not the daughter of my mother—and she became my wife.

13 Hanki Anumzamo'ma hunantege'na nenfa noma netre'na amanage hu'na Serana asami'noe, hakare'a kaziga vanu'ana so'e kavukva hunantenka nensaro'e hunka huo hu'na asami'noe.

So when God had me journey from my father’s house, I said to Sarah, ‘This is how you can show your loyalty to me: Wherever we go, say of me, “He is my brother.”’”

14 Anante Abimeleki'a sipisipine, bulimakaone, kazokazo eri'za vahera vene a'ene Abrahamuna avrenemino, nenaro Seranena avreno eme ami'ne.

So Abimelech brought sheep and cattle, menservants and maidservants, and he gave them to Abraham and restored his wife Sarah to him.

15 Abimeleki'a amanage hu'ne, Ko! Ama maka nagri mopa me'neanki, kavesinirera amne umanio.

And Abimelech said, “Look, my land is before you. Settle wherever you please.”

16 Nehuno Serana amanage huno asami'ne. Kagri'ma kagazema eri kami'nogu hu'na negasro Abrahamuna ama mizana 1tauseni'a silva zagoa mika negazage'na amue. E'ina nehanuge'za mika vahe'mo'za nege'za, nagrikura havi zana osu'ne hu'za hugahaze.

And he said to Sarah, “See, I am giving your brother a thousand pieces of silver. It is your vindication before all who are with you; you are completely cleared.”

17 Anage hutegeno Abrahamu'a Anumzamofontega nunamu higeno Anumzamo'a Abimelekine, nenarone, kazokzo eri'za mofanene, a'nenea zamazeri soe hige'za mofavre kasente'naze.

Then Abraham prayed to God, and God healed Abimelech and his wife and his maidservants, so that they could again bear children—

18 Na'ankure Abrahamu nenaro Seranteku huno Ra Anumzamo'a Abimeleki naga'mofo a'nea zamarimpa erigi'neane.

for on account of Abraham’s wife Sarah, the LORD had completely closed all the wombs in Abimelech’s household.
