2 N’afiira e Kiriyasuwalaba, ye Kebbulooni, mu nsi ya Kanani. Saala bwe yafa Ibulayimu n’ayingira okumukungubagira n’amukaabira.
Ɔwuu wɔ Kiriat-Arba a ɛno ara ne Hebron a ɛwɔ Kanaan asase so. Abraham kɔgyam ne yere Sara, suu no wɔ hɔ.
3 Oluvannyuma Ibulayimu n’ava awali omulambo gwe n’agenda eri Abakiiti n’abagamba nti,

4 “Ndi mugenyi era omutambuze mu mmwe, munfunire ekifo aw’okuziika, ndyoke nziikewo omuntu wange anve ku maaso.”
“Meyɛ ɔhɔhoɔ ne mamfrani a mete mo mu. Mesrɛ mo, montɔn mo asase yi bi mma me, na mensie me yere wɔ so.”
5 Abakiiti ne baddamu Ibulayimu nti,
Hetifoɔ no buaa Abraham sɛ,
6 “Tuwulirize mukama waffe. Laba, oli muntu mukulu wakati mu ffe. Ziika mukazi wo mu emu ku ntaana zaffe gy’oneeroboza. Tewali n’omu mu ffe anaakuuma ntaana ye, oba okukuziyiza okuziika omuntu wo.”

7 Ibulayimu n’agolokoka n’avuunama eri Abakiiti, bannannyini nsi.
Ɛhɔ ara, Abraham sɔre bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ Hetifoɔ no anim,
8 N’abagamba nti, “Obanga munzikirizza mu mwoyo mulungi okuziika omuntu wange, mumpulirize. Kale munneegayiririre Efulooni mutabani wa Zokali,
ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Sɛ moapene so sɛ mensie mʼamu no wɔ ha deɛ a, mepa mo kyɛw, monsrɛ Efron a ɔyɛ Sohar babarima no mma me,
9 anguze empuku ey’e Makupeera, gy’alina, eri ku nkomerero y’ennimiro ye. Agingulize mu maaso gammwe, mmusasule omuwendo gwayo gwonna, efuuke ekifo kyange eky’okuziikangamu mu mmwe.”
na ɔntɔn Makpela ɔboda a ɛwɔ nʼafuo ano no mma me. Monka nkyerɛ no na ɔntɔn no sɛdeɛ ne boɔ die pɛpɛɛpɛ mma me, na mede hɔ ayɛ me ne mʼabusuafoɔ amusieeɛ.”
10 Mu kiseera ekyo Efulooni yali atudde awo wakati mu Bakiiti. Efulooni, Omukiiti n’addamu Ibulayimu nga Abakiiti bonna abaaliwo mu mulyango gw’ekibuga nga bawulira nti,
Saa ɛberɛ no na Hetini Efron a ɔte ne manfoɔ mu no buaa Abraham maa ne nkurɔfoɔ a wɔahyia wɔ kuro no ɛpono ano nyinaa tee sɛ,
11 “Nedda mukama wange. Mpuliriza. Nkuwadde ennimiro n’empuku erimu, ng’abantu bange balaba, ziika omuntu wo.”
“Dabi, me wura, tie me! Mede afuo no ne ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no kyɛ wo. Megyina me manfoɔ anim, na mede kyɛ wo. Kɔsie wʼamu no wɔ hɔ.”
12 Awo Ibulayimu n’avuunama mu maaso gaabwe bonna.
Bio Abraham de obuo ne anidie bɔɔ ne mu ase wɔ ɔmanfoɔ no anim,
13 N’agamba Efulooni, bonna nga bawulira nti, “Obanga okkirizza, nkusaba nsasule omuwendo gw’ennimiro gwonna ndyoke nziikewo mukazi wange.”
ka kyerɛɛ Efron maa wɔn a wɔahyia wɔ hɔ no nyinaa tee asɛm a ɔkaeɛ no sɛ, “Mesrɛ mo, ɔmanfoɔ, monyɛ aso mma me. Momma mentua asase no ka. Mompene so mma me, na mennya ɛkwan nkɔsie mʼamu no.”
14 Efulooni n’addamu Ibulayimu nti,
Efron buaa Abraham sɛ,
15 “Mpuliriza mukama wange, ennimiro esaana ebitundu by’effeeza ebikumi bina. Kale ekyo ki eri ab’omukwano? Twala ennimiro oziikemu abafu bo.”
“Me wura, tie me! Asase no boɔ yɛ dwetɛ kilogram ɛnan ne fa. Yɛnyɛ nnipa baako anaa? Meregye saa sika yi ayɛ ɛdeɛn? Kɔsie wʼamu no!”
16 Ne bakkiriziganya, Ibulayimu kwe kusasula Efulooni ensimbi ze bakkirizaganya nga Abakiiti bonna balaba.
Abraham penee Efron asɛm no so. Ɔkarii dwetɛ kilogram ɛnan ne fa a ɛyɛ asase no boɔ de maa Efron. Saa ara na na adwadifoɔ tɔn asase wɔ Hetifoɔ ɔman mu, na Hetifoɔ mpanimfoɔ no dii dwumadie no ho adanseɛ.
17 Olwo ennimiro ya Efulooni mu Makupeera, eyali ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba olwa Mamule, ennimiro awamu n’empuku eyalimu, n’emiti gyonna egyali mu nnimiro ekitundu kyonna ne bifuuka bya
Enti, wɔde Efron asase a ɛwɔ Makpela a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ, a ɛyɛ afuo no, ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no, nnua a ɛwɔ afuo no mu ne nʼahyeɛ so nyinaa maa
18 Ibulayimu nga Abakiiti bonna abaafuluma mu mulyango gw’ekibuga balaba.
Abraham sɛ nʼagyapadeɛ. Yei nyinaa sii wɔ Hetifoɔ no ne wɔn a wɔbaa kuro no ɛpono no ano nyinaa anim.
19 Oluvannyuma Ibulayimu n’aziika Saala mukazi we mu mpuku mu nnimiro ya Makupeera ku luuyi olw’ebuvanjuba bwa Mamule, ye Kebbulooni, mu nsi ya Kanani.
Afei, Abraham siee ne yere Sara wɔ ɔboda a ɛwɔ Makpela afuo a ɛbɛn Mamrɛ a ɛno ara ne Hebron a ɛwɔ Kanaan asase so no mu.
20 Abakiiti ne bakwasa Ibulayimu ennimiro awamu n’empuku yaamu mu butongole okubeera obutaka bwe okuziikangamu abantu be.
Enti, Hetifoɔ no yɛɛ nhyehyɛeɛ de afuo no ne ɔboda a ɛwɔ mu no maa Abraham sɛ, nʼagyapadeɛ ne nʼamusieeɛ.
