1 Hanki Aisaki'a ke higeno Jekopu'a egeno asomu ke hunenteno, hankavenentake ke asamino amanage hu'ne, Kagra mago Kenani vahe'mokizmi mofara ara e'origahane.
Ngakho u-Isaka wabiza uJakhobe wambusisa wamlaya wathi: “Ungathathi umfazi womKhenani.
2 Hanki otinka Padan-Aram moparega (Mesopotemia), Betuel nontega vuo. E'i negrerana nefa'e. Anantegati a'ka'a erisanana negrera nesaro Lebani mofanefinti mago mofa ara erio!
Hamba khathesi uye ePhadani Aramu, emzini kayihlomkhulu uBhethuweli. Thatha khona umfazi, emadodakazini kaLabhani, umnewabo kanyoko.
3 Ana'ma hanankeno'a Hankavenentake Anumzamo'a asomu huneganteno, kazeri hakare hugante'na tusi'a vahe fore hunka manigahane.
Sengathi uNkulunkulu uSomandla angakubusisa akuphe inzalo, andise ubunengi bayo lize libe yizizwe ezinengi.
4 Nagri'ma navesiana Anumzamo Abrahamu hunte'neaza huno kagri'ene, mofavreka'ane asomu hugantesnie. Ama vanoma nehana mopa, Anumzamo'a Abrahamu ami'nea mopa eri nafa'a kagra hugahane.
Sengathi angakupha wena kanye lezizukulwane zakho isibusiso leso esaphiwa u-Abhrahama, ukuze lilithathe ilizwe leli ohlezi kulo manje njengowezizweni, ilizwe uNkulunkulu alipha u-Abhrahama.”
5 Aisaki'a Jekopuna huntegeno Padan-Aram (Mesopotemia) Lebani nemofo Betueli Aramia ne'mofontega vu'ne. Rebeka'a Jekopune Isonena neznarera'e.
Ngakho u-Isaka wasemvalelisa uJakhobe, waya ePhadani Aramu, kuLabhani indodana kaBhethuweli umʼAramu, umnewabo kaRabheka, owayengunina kaJakhobe lo-Esawu.
6 Hagi Aisaki'ma Jekopuma asomu hunenteno Padan-aramuti a' erinogu huntegeno nevigeno hankavenentake ke asmino, kagra Kenani vahe'mokizmi mofa'nefintira ara e'oriogahane hiankea Iso'a antahine.
U-Esawu wezwa ukuthi u-Isaka wayembusisile uJakhobe njalo wamthumela ePhadani Aramu ukuthi ayothatha umfazi khona, lokuthi wathi embusisa wamlaya wathi, “Ungathathi umfazi ongumKhenani,”
7 Hagi Jekopu'ma nefane nerera kema erizafa huno Padan-Aram vu'nea zamofo kenena keno antahino hu'ne.
lokuthi uJakhobe wayebalalele uyise lonina wahamba waya ePhadani Aramu.
8 Iso'ma keana nefa Aisaki'a Kenani mofa'negura musena osu'ne.
U-Esawu wakunanzelela ukuthi abafazi bamaKhenani babeyisinengiso kuyise u-Isaka;
9 Ana higeno Iso'a Ismaelintega vuno a'nema zamante'nefi mago'ene a' omeri'ne. Ismaeli mofa agi'a Mahalati'e, Ismaeli'a Abrahamu nemofo'e. Mahalati'a Nebaioti nenunkna'e.
ngakho wasesiya ku-Ishumayeli wathatha uMahalathi, udadewabo kaNebhayothi, indodakazi ka-Ishumayeli indodana ka-Abhrahama, phezu kwabanye abafazi ayevele eselabo.
10 Hagi Jekopu'a Berseba atreno Harani kaziga vu'ne.
UJakhobe wasuka eBherishebha waqonda eHarani.
11 Nevigeno kantega zage ufreno hani ome higeno, have fita erinteno mase'ne.
Wafika kwenye indawo, wema lapho ukuthi alale khona ngoba ilanga laselitshonile. Wathatha ilitshe khona walenza umqamelo walala.
12 Anante mase'neno ava'nama keana, mago latamo'a mopareti agafa huteno anagamu monafinka mareri'negeno, Anumzamofo ankeromo'za ana latarera mareri'za tami'za nehazageno ke'ne.
Wehlelwa liphupho wabona ilele ligxile phansi emhlabeni, isiqongo salo sifinyelela ezulwini, kwathi izingilosi zikaNkulunkulu zabe ziqansa zisehla kulo.
13 Ana huno nezmagegeno Ra Anumzamo'a anante otino mani'neno anage huno asami'ne, Nagra negageho Abrahamune, negafa Aisakine Anumzane, Menima mase'nana mopa kagri'ene, kagehe'ine tamigahue.
Laphaya ngaphezu kwalo kwakumi uThixo esithi: “nginguThixo, uNkulunkulu kayihlo u-Abhrahama loNkulunkulu ka-Isaka. Ngizakupha wena kanye lezizukulwane zakho ilizwe leli olele kulo.
14 Kagripinti'ma fore'ma hanaza vahe'mo'za kasepankna hu'za fore huhakare hu'za manigahaze. Zage fre kazigane, zage hanati kazigane, ruga raga agentega vu'za e'za hu'za mani titipa hu'za manigahaze. Kagri'ene kagehe'impinti ama mopafi vahe'mo'za asomura erigahaze.
Izizukulwane zakho zizakuba njengothuli lomhlabathi, njalo lizaqhela liye entshonalanga lasempumalanga, enyakatho laseningizimu. Bonke abantu bomhlaba bazabusiswa ngenxa yakho lenzalo yakho.
15 Hanki antahio, Nagra kagrane mani'nena inantego vanoma hananana kva hunegante'na, ete kavre'na ama ana mopare egahue. Ana nehu'na Nagra onkatre'na, huvempama hugante'noa kea eri knare huvagaregahue.
Ngilawe njalo ngizakulinda loba ungaze uye ngaphi, njalo ngizakubuyisa kulelilizwe. Kangizukukudela ngize ngikwenze lokho engikuthembise khona.”
16 Higeno Jekopu'a avu'ma masenereti otino anage hu'ne, Tamage huno Ra Anumzamo'a amafi mani'negena nagra ontahi'noane.
UJakhobe wathi evuka ebuthongweni bakhe wacabanga wathi, “Ngeqiniso uThixo ukhona kule indawo, kodwa bengingakunanzeleli.”
17 Agra amanogu nehuno amanage hu'ne. Ama mopa ruzahu hu'nea mopare e'noe! Ra Anumzamo mani'nea nompi e'noankino, ama mona kafa me'ne.
Wesaba wathi, “Yeka ukwesabeka kwale indawo ehloniphekayo! Ngempela iyindlu kaNkulunkulu; leli lisango lasezulwini.”
18 Jekopu'a nanterame otino, fita aruno mase'nea havea erisga huno retru renteteno, masve tagino agofetu frenteno eri ruotge hunte'ne.
Kusisa ekuseni kakhulu uJakhobe walithatha ilitshe ayelele eliqamele walimisa laba yinsika wathela amafutha phezu kwalo.
19 Agra ana kumakura Beteli'e huno agia antemi'ne. Korapara ana kumamofo agi'a Lusie huno me'neane.
Indawo leyo wayibiza wathi yiBhetheli, ikanti idolobho lakhona lalithiwa yiLuzi.
20 Jekopu'a amanage huno huvempa hu'ne, Afete kama nevanugeno Anumzamo'ma nagrane nevuno nagu'vazino ne'za ni'ane kukena'ni'ane nazama nehanigeno,
Ngakho uJakhobe wenza isifungo wathi, “Nxa uNkulunkulu ezakuba lami angilondoloze kuloluhambo engikulo, angiphe ukudla lezigqoko,
21 mago knazamo navate'ma omesanige'na, nafa'nimofo kumate ete rukrahe hu'na uhanatisu'na, Ra Anumzana nagri Anumzane hu'na hugahue.
ngibuyele emzini kababa ngiphilile, lapho uThixo uzakuba nguNkulunkulu wami
22 Ama havema eri retruroana, Anumzamofo no mesie. Mika'zama Anumzamo'ma namisifintira 10ni'ma hania kevua refko hu'na Anumzamofo amitere hugahue.
njalo lelitshe leli engilenze insika lizakuba yindlu kaNkulunkulu, njalo kuzakuthi konke onginika khona ngizakunika wena okwetshumi.”
