< UGenesisi 24 >

1 UAbrahama wayesemdala eselezinsuku ezinengi; leNkosi yayimbusisile kukho konke.
Pea naʻe motuʻa ʻa ʻEpalahame, pea lahi ʻaupito ʻa hono ngaahi ʻaho; pea naʻe tāpuaki ʻe Sihova ʻa ʻEpalahame ʻi he meʻa kotoa pē.
2 UAbrahama wasesithi encekwini yakhe, endala yendlu yakhe, ebusa phezu kwakho konke alakho: Ake ubeke isandla sakho ngaphansi kwethangazi lami,
Pea pehē ʻe ʻEpalahame ki ke motuʻa tamaioʻeiki ʻi hono fale, ʻaia naʻe pule ki heʻene meʻa kotoa pē, “ʻOku ou kole ke ke ai ho nima ʻi hoku lalo tenga:
3 ukuze ngikufungise ngeNkosi, uNkulunkulu wamazulu loNkulunkulu womhlaba, ukuthi kawuyikuyithathela indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani, engihlala phakathi kwawo;
He ko hoku loto, ke ke fuakava ʻia Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, pea ko e ʻOtua ʻo māmani, ke ʻoua naʻa ke fili ha uaifi ki hoku foha ʻi he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kakai Kēnani, ʻaia ʻoku ou ʻāunofo ki ai.
4 kodwa uzakuya elizweni lakithi lezihlotsheni zami, uyithathele umfazi indodana yami uIsaka.
Ka te ke ʻalu ki hoku fonua, ki hoku kāinga, mo ke fili mai ha uaifi ki hoku foha ko ʻAisake.”
5 Inceku yasisithi kuye: Mhlawumbe owesifazana angafuni ukungilandela kulelilizwe, ngingayibuyisela lokuyibuyisela yini indodana yakho elizweni owaphuma kulo?
Pea pehēange ʻe he tamaioʻeiki kiate ia, “Kapau ʻe ʻikai fie haʻu mo au ʻae fefine ki he fonua ni; ʻe fēfē, te u toe ʻave ho foha ki he fonua naʻa ke haʻu mei ai?”
6 UAbrahama wasesithi kuye: Qaphela ukuthi ungayibuyiseli khona indodana yami.
Pea talaange ʻe ʻEpalahame kiate ia, “Vakai, ʻoua ʻaupito naʻa ke toe ʻave hoku foha ki ai.
7 INkosi, uNkulunkulu wamazulu, eyangithatha endlini kababa lelizweni lokuzalwa kwami, eyakhuluma kimi, eyafunga kimi isithi: Ngizalinika inzalo yakho lelilizwe; yona izathuma ingilosi yayo phambi kwakho, ukuze uyithathele khona umfazi indodana yami.
Ko Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻoe langi, ʻaia naʻe ʻomi au mei he fale ʻo ʻeku tamai, mo e fonua ʻo hoku kāinga, pea naʻa ne lea kiate au mo ne fuakava kiate au, ʻo pehē, Te u foaki ki ho hako ʻae fonua ni: te ne fekau ʻene ʻāngelo ke muʻomuʻa ʻiate koe, pea te ke ʻomi mei ai ha uaifi ki hoku foha.
8 Kodwa uba owesifazana engafuni ukukulandela, uzakuba ukhululekile kulesisifungo sami; kuphela ungayibuyiseli indodana yami khona.
Pea kapau ʻe ʻikai loto ʻae fefine ke haʻu mo koe, te ke ʻataʻatā ai mei he ʻe ta fuakava ni: kaeʻoua naʻa ke toe ʻave hoku foha ki ai.”
9 Inceku yasibeka isandla sayo ngaphansi kwethangazi likaAbrahama inkosi yayo, yafunga kuye ngaloludaba.
Pea naʻe ai ʻe he tamaioʻeiki hono nima ki he lalo tenga ʻo hono ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, pea ne fuakava kiate ia, koeʻuhi ko e meʻa ni.
10 Njalo inceku yasithatha amakamela alitshumi kuwo amakamela enkosi yayo, yahamba, lakho konke okuhle kwenkosi yayo kwakusesandleni sayo, yasisukuma yaya eMesopotamiya emzini kaNahori.
Pea naʻe fili mai ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ʻae kāmeli ʻe hongofulu ʻi he fanga kāmeli ʻa ʻene ʻeiki, pea ʻalu; he naʻe ʻiate ia ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē ʻa ʻene ʻeiki, pea tuʻu hake ia ʻo ʻalu ki Mesopōtemia, ki he kolo ʻo Nehoa.
11 Yasiguqisa amakamela ngaphandle komuzi emthonjeni wamanzi ngesikhathi santambama, ngesikhathi sokuphuma kwabakhi bamanzi besifazana.
Pea naʻa ne fakatūʻulutui ʻene fanga kāmeli ʻi he tuaʻā kolo ʻi he veʻe vaikeli, ʻi he feituʻulaʻā efiafi, ʻio, ʻi he feituʻulaʻā ʻoku ʻalu ai ʻae kau fefine ke utu vai.
12 Yasisithi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wenkosi yami uAbrahama, ake ungiphumelelise lamuhla, uyenzele umusa inkosi yami uAbrahama.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “E Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakamonūʻia au he ʻaho ni, pea ke fakahā hoʻo ʻofa ki heʻeku ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame.
13 Khangela, ngimi emthonjeni wamanzi, kuphuma amadodakazi amadoda omuzi ukukha amanzi.
Vakai, ʻoku ou tuʻu ʻi heni, ʻi he veʻe vaikeli; pea ʻe haʻu ʻae ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kakai ʻoe kolo ke utu vai.
14 Njalo kuzakuthi intombazana engizakuthi kuyo: Ake ukhothamise imbiza yakho ukuze nginathe, ibisisithi: Natha, lamakamela akho ngizawanathisa; yiyo oyimisele inceku yakho uIsaka; ngalokho-ke ngizakwazi ukuthi uyenzele umusa inkosi yami.
Tuku ke hoko ʻo pehē, ke ʻilonga ʻae taʻahine, ʻaia te u pehē ki ai, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku hifo hoʻo hina, ke u inu; pea te ne pehē mai, Inu, pea te u fakainu hoʻo fanga kāmeli foki;’ ko ia ia kuo ke fili maʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ko ʻAisake: pea te u ʻilo ai kuo ke fakahā ʻae ʻofa ki heʻeku ʻeiki.”
15 Kwasekusithi ingakaqedi ukukhuluma, khangela-ke, uRebeka waphuma, owazalelwa uBethuweli indodana kaMilka, umkaNahori umfowabo kaAbrahama, njalo elembiza ehlombe lakhe.
Pea naʻe hoko, ʻo pehē, ʻi he teʻeki ai ʻosi ʻene lea, vakai naʻe haʻu mo ʻene hina vai ʻi hono uma, ʻa Lepeka ʻaia naʻe tupu ia Petueli, ko e tama ʻa Milika, ko e uaifi ʻo Nehoa, ko e taʻokete ʻo ʻEpalahame.
16 Njalo inkazana yayikhangeleka kuhle kakhulu, intombi emsulwa, okungelandoda eyaziyo; yasisehlela emthonjeni, yagcwalisa imbiza yayo, yenyuka.
Pea naʻe hoihoifua ʻae taʻahine ke sio ki ai, pea ko e tāupoʻou ia, he naʻe teʻeki ʻiloʻi ia ʻe ha tangata; pea ne ʻalu hifo ia ki he vai, ʻo fakafonu ʻene hina pea toe ʻalu hake.
17 Inceku yasigijima ukuyihlangabeza yathi: Ake unginathise amanzi amalutshwana embizeni yakho.
Pea lele ʻae tamaioʻeiki ke fakafetaulaki kiate ia, ʻo ne pehē kiate ia: “ʻOku ou kole ke u inu ha vai siʻi ʻi hoʻo hina.”
18 Yasisithi: Natha, nkosi yami. Yaphangisa yehlisela imbiza yayo esandleni sayo, yayinathisa.
Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Ko ʻeku ʻeiki ke ke inu;” pea fakatoʻotoʻo ia ʻo tuku hifo ʻae hina ki hono nima, ʻo ne fakainu ia.
19 Isiqedile ukuyinathisa yathi: Ngizakhelela lamakamela akho aze aqede ukunatha.
Pea hili ʻene fakainu ia, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Te u utu ki hoʻo fanga kāmeli foki ke ʻoua ke nau fiu.”
20 Yasiphangisa yathululela isigxingi sayo emkolweni wokunathela, yabuya yagijimela emthonjeni ukuyakukha, yakhelelela amakamela ayo wonke.
Pea fakatoʻotoʻo ia, pea lingi ʻae vai mei he hina ki he tukuʻanga vai, pea toe lele ki he vai ke utu, pea naʻa ne utu ki heʻene fanga kāmeli kotoa pē.
21 Indoda yasiyikhangelisisa ithule ukuze yazi ukuthi iNkosi iyiphumelelisile indlela yayo kumbe hatshi.
Pea naʻe ofo ʻae tangata kiate ia, kae fakalongo pe, ko ʻene vakai pe kuo fakamonūʻia ʻe Sihova hono fononga pe ʻikai.
22 Kwasekusithi amakamela eseqedile ukunatha, indoda yasithatha icici legolide, osisindo salo sasiyingxenye yeshekeli, lamasongo amabili ezandleni zayo, isisindo sawo saba ngamashekeli alitshumi egolide.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi he hili ʻae inu ʻae fanga kāmeli, naʻe toʻo ʻe he tangata ʻae hau koula, ko e vaheua ʻoe sikeli siliva hono mamafa, pea mo e lelu koula ʻe ua ki hono nima, ko e sikeli ʻe hongofulu hono mamafa.
23 Yasisithi: Uyindodakazi kabani? Ake utsho. Kukhona indawo yethu yini endlini kayihlo ukuthi silale?
Pea ne pehē, “Ko e ʻofefine ʻohai koe? ʻOku ou kole ke ke tala mai, pe ʻoku ʻataʻatā ʻae ʻapi ʻo hoʻo tamai ke mau ʻapitanga ai.”
24 Yasisithi kuyo: Ngiyindodakazi kaBethuweli indodana kaMilka owayizalela uNahori.
Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko e ʻofefine au ʻo Petueli ko e tama ʻa Milika, ʻaia naʻa ne fāʻeleʻi kia Nehoa.”
25 Yathi kuyo futhi: Silakho konke amahlanga lokudla kwezinyamazana okunengi, lendawo yokulala.
Pea ne pehē foki kiate ia, “ʻOku mau maʻu ʻae mohuku mo e meʻakai lahi pea ʻoku ʻataʻatā homau ʻapi ke [mou ]ʻapitanga ki ai.”
26 Indoda yasikhothama, yakhonza iNkosi,
Pea tulolo hifo ʻae tangata hono ʻulu, pea hū ia kia Sihova.
27 yasisithi: Ibusisiwe iNkosi, uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami uAbrahama, engayekelanga umusa wayo lobuqotho bayo enkosini yami; mina-ke, ngisendleleni, iNkosi ingikhokhelele endlini yabafowabo benkosi yami.
‌ʻO ne pehē, “ʻOku monūʻia ʻa Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, ʻaia ʻoku ʻikai te ne fakamasiva ʻeku ʻeiki ʻi heʻene ʻaloʻofa mo ʻene moʻoni; naʻaku ʻi he hala, pea kuo tataki au ʻe Sihova ki he fale ʻoe kāinga ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki.”
28 Intombi yasigijima, yazisa abendlu kanina ngalezizinto.
Pea naʻe lele ʻae taʻahine, ʻo fakahā ki he fale ʻo ʻene faʻē, ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni.
29 Njalo uRebeka wayelomnewabo obizo lakhe lalinguLabani; uLabani wasegijimela phandle endodeni emthonjeni.
Pea naʻe ʻi ai ʻae tuongaʻane ʻo Lepeka ko Lepani hono hingoa; pea lele kituʻa ʻa Lepani ki he tangata, ʻi he vaikeli.
30 Kwasekusithi esebonile icici lamasongo ezandleni zikadadewabo, esezwile amazwi kaRebeka udadewabo okuthi: Itsho njalo indoda kimi; wasesiya endodeni, khangela-ke, yayimi ngasemakameleni emthonjeni.
Pea naʻe hoko ʻo pehē, ʻi heʻene mamata ki he hau, mo e lelu ʻi he nima ʻo hono tuofefine, pea mo ʻene fanongo ki he ngaahi lea ʻa Lepeka ko hono tuofefine, ʻo pehē, naʻe lea pehē mai ʻae tangata kiate au; pea haʻu leva ia ki he tangata; pea vakai naʻe tuʻu ia ʻo ofi ki he fanga kāmeli ʻi he veʻe vaikeli.
31 Wasesithi: Ngena wena obusisiweyo weNkosi; umeleni ngaphandle? Ngoba mina sengilungisile indlu lendawo yamakamela.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Haʻu ki heni, ʻa koe ko e monūʻia ʻo Sihova; ko e hā ʻoku ke kei tuʻu ai ʻi tuaʻā? He kuo ʻosi ʻeku teu ʻae fale, mo e potu ki he fanga kāmeli.
32 Indoda yasisiza endlini, yakhulula amakamela; wasenika amakamela amahlanga lokudla kwenyamazana, lamanzi okugeza inyawo zayo lenyawo zamadoda ayelayo.
Pea naʻe hū ʻae tangata ki he fale; pea ne vete ʻae fanga kāmeli, pea ne ʻatu ʻae mohuku mo e meʻakai ki he fanga kāmeli, mo e vai ke fufulu ai hono vaʻe mo e vaʻe ʻoe kau tangata naʻe ʻiate ia.
33 Kwasekubekwa ukudla phambi kwayo; kodwa yathi: Kangiyikudla ngize ngikhulume indaba zami. Wasesithi: Khuluma.
Pea naʻe tuku ʻi hono ʻao ʻae meʻakai: ka naʻe pehē ʻe ia, “E ʻikai te u kai, kaeʻoua muʻa ke u fakahā ʻeku fekau,” pea ne pehē, “Ke ke lea.”
34 Yasisithi: Ngiyinceku kaAbrahama.
Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “Ko e tamaioʻeiki au ʻa ʻEpalahame,
35 Futhi iNkosi iyibusisile kakhulu inkosi yami, yaze yaba nkulu. Yayinika izimvu lezinkomo, lesiliva legolide, lezinceku lezincekukazi, lamakamela labobabhemi.
Pea kuo tāpuaki lahi ʻe Sihova ʻeku ʻeiki; pea kuo hoko ia ʻo lahi: pea kuo ne foaki kiate ia ʻae fanga sipi, mo fanga manu, mo e siliva, mo e koula, mo e kau tamaioʻeiki mo e kau kaunanga, mo e fanga kāmeli, mo e fanga ʻasi.
36 Njalo uSara inkosikazi yenkosi yami uyizalele inkosi yami indodana emva kokuba esemdala; yasiyinika konke elakho.
Pea ko Sela, ko e uaifi ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki naʻa ne fanauʻi ki heʻeku ʻeiki ʻae tama heʻene motuʻa; pea kuo ne tuku ʻa ʻene meʻa kotoa pē kiate ia.
37 Inkosi yami yasingifungisa isithi: Ungayithatheli indodana yami umfazi kumadodakazi amaKhanani, engihlala elizweni lawo;
Pea naʻe fekau ʻe heʻeku ʻeiki kiate au ke u fuakava, ʻo pehē, ‘E ʻikai te ke fili ha uaifi ki hoku foha mei he ngaahi ʻofefine ʻoe kakai Kēnani, ʻaia ʻoku ʻonautolu ʻae fonua ʻoku ou nofo ai;’
38 kodwa uzakuya endlini kababa lezihlotsheni zami, ubusuyithathela indodana yami umfazi.
Ka ke ʻalu ki he fale ʻo ʻeku tamai mo hoku kāinga, ʻo ʻomi mei ai ha uaifi ki hoku foha.
39 Ngasengisithi enkosini yami: Mhlawumbe owesifazana kayikungilandela.
Pea naʻaku pehē ki heʻeku ʻeiki, ‘Ka e fēfē ʻoka ʻikai fie haʻu ʻae fefine mo au?’
40 Yasisithi kimi: INkosi, engihamba phambi kwayo, izathuma ingilosi yayo lawe, izaphumelelisa indlela yakho, njalo uzayithathela indodana yami umfazi ezihlotsheni zami lendlini kababa.
Pea pehē mai ʻe ia kiate au, ‘Ko Sihova ʻaia ʻoku ou ʻalu ʻi hono ʻao, te ne fekau ʻene ʻāngelo ke ʻalu mo koe ʻo fakamonūʻia hoʻo ʻalu; pea te ke ʻomi ha uaifi ki hoku foha mei hoku kāinga mo e fale ʻo ʻeku tamai:
41 Emva kwalokho uzakhululeka esifungweni sami uba uye ezihlotsheni zami njalo uba bengakuniki yena, uzakhululeka-ke esifungweni sami.
Pea te ke ʻataʻatā mei heʻeku fuakava ni, ʻoka ke ka hoko ki hoku kāinga, pea kapau ʻe ʻikai te nau tuku ha tokotaha kiate koe, pea te ke ʻataʻatā mei he ʻe tā fuakava ni.’
42 Kuthe ngifika emthonjeni lamuhla, ngathi: Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wenkosi yami uAbrahama, uba-ke uphumelelisa indlela yami, engihamba ngayo;
Pea naʻaku haʻu he ʻaho ni ki he vaikeli pea u pehē, ‘E Sihova ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, kapau ʻoku ke fakamonūʻia hoku hala, ʻaia ʻoku ou ʻalu ai:
43 khangela, ngimi emthonjeni wamanzi; njalo kakuthi intombi ezaphuma ukukha lengizakuthi kuyo: Ake unginathise amanzi amalutshwana esigxingini sakho;
Vakai ʻoku ou tuʻu ʻi he veʻe vaikeli pea te u pehē, ʻoka haʻu ha taʻahine ke utu vai, te u pehē kiate ia, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, tuku mai ha vai siʻi ʻi hoʻo hina ke u inu:’
44 ibisisithi kimi: Natha lawe, futhi ngizakhelelela lamakamela akho; kayibe nguye owesifazana iNkosi emmisele indodana yenkosi yami.
Pea kapau te ne pehē mai kiate au, ‘Inu koe, pea te u utu ha vai ki hoʻo fanga kāmeli foki,’ ʻofa ko e fefine ko ia kuo fili ʻe Sihova ki he foha ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki.
45 Ngingakaqedi ukukhuluma enhliziyweni yami, khangela-ke, uRebeka waphuma lesigxingi sisehlombe lakhe; wehlela emthonjeni, wakha. Ngasengisithi kuye: Akunginathise.
Pea naʻe teʻeki ai ʻosi ʻeku lea ʻi hoku loto, mo ʻene hoko mai ʻa Lepeka mo ʻene hina ʻi hono uma: pea hifo ia ki he vai, ʻo utu, pea ne u pehē kiate ia, ‘ʻOku ou kole kiate koe tuku mai ke u inu.’
46 Wasephangisa, wethula isigxingi kuye wathi: Natha, futhi ngizanathisa lamakamela akho. Ngasenginatha, wasenathisa lamakamela.
Pea naʻe fakatoʻotoʻo ia ʻo tuku hifo ʻene hina mei hono uma, ʻo ne pehē, ‘Inu, pea te u fakainu hoʻo fanga kāmeli foki; pea u inu, pea naʻa ne fakainu ʻae fanga kāmeli foki.
47 Ngasengimbuza ngathi: Uyindodakazi kabani? Wasesithi: Indodakazi kaBethuweli, indodana kaNahori uMilka amzalela yona; ngasengifaka icici emakhaleni akhe lamasongo ezandleni zakhe.
Pea naʻaku fehuʻi kiate ia ʻo pehē, ‘Ko e ʻofefine ʻohai koe?’ Pea pehē ʻe ia, ‘Ko e ʻofefine ʻo Petueli, ko e foha ʻo Nehoa ʻaia naʻe fanauʻi ʻe Milika kiate ia: pea naʻaku ai ʻae hau ki hono mata, mo e lelu ki hono nima.’
48 Ngasengikhothama, ngakhonza iNkosi, ngabusisa iNkosi uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami uAbrahama, engikhokhele endleleni elungileyo ukuthi indodakazi yomfowabo wenkosi yami ngiyithathele indodana yayo.
Pea punou hifo hoku mata ʻo hū mo e fakafetaʻi kia Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻo ʻeku ʻeiki ko ʻEpalahame, ʻaia naʻe tataki au ʻi he hala totonu ke ʻave ʻae ʻofefine ʻoe tokoua ʻa ʻeku ʻeiki ki hono foha.
49 Khathesi-ke uba lizayenzela inkosi yami umusa lobuqotho, ngitshelani; uba-ke kungenjalo, ngitshelani, ukuze ngiphendukele ngakwesokunene loba ngakwesokhohlo.
Pea ko eni, kapau te mou fai ʻofa mo totonu, ki heʻeku ʻeiki, tala mai, pea ka ʻikai, tala mai, koeʻuhi ke u afe ki he nima toʻomataʻu, pe ki he toʻohema.”
50 Khona oLabani loBethuweli baphendula, bathi: Le into ivela eNkosini; kasilakutsho lutho kuwe, olubi kumbe oluhle.
Pea lea ʻa Lepani mo Petueli, ʻo pehēange, “ʻOku haʻu ʻae meʻa ni meia Sihova; pea ʻoku ʻikai te ma faʻa lea ʻaki kiate koe ʻae kovi pe ko e lelei;
51 Khangela, uRebeka uphambi kwakho; mthathe uhambe, ukuze abe ngumkandodana yenkosi yakho, njengoba iNkosi ikhulumile.
Vakai, ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻa Lepeka, toʻo ia, pea ʻalu, pea ke hoko ia ko e uaifi ki he foha ʻo hoʻo ʻeiki, ʻo hangē ko e folofola ʻa Sihova.”
52 Kwasekusithi inceku kaAbrahama isizwile amazwi abo yakhothamela emhlabathini phambi kweNkosi.
Pea ʻi he fanongo ʻae tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻEpalahame ki he ngaahi lea ni, naʻe hū ia kia Sihova, ʻo ne punou ki he kelekele;
53 Inceku yasikhupha imiceciso yesiliva, lemiceciso yegolide, lezembatho, yakunika uRebeka, yabanika lomnewabo lonina impahla eziligugu.
Pea toʻo ʻe he tamaioʻeiki ʻae ngaahi teunga siliva, mo e ngaahi teunga koula, mo e ngaahi kofu, ʻo ne foaki ia kia Lepeka; pea ne foaki ʻae ngaahi meʻa mahuʻinga ki hono tuongaʻane, mo ʻene faʻē.
54 Basebesidla banatha, yona lamadoda ayelayo, balala; bavuka ekuseni, yasisithi: Ngiyekelani ngiye enkosini yami.
Pea naʻa nau kai mo inu, ko ia mo e kau tangata naʻe ʻiate ia, pea nau mohe ʻi he pō ko ia: pea nau tuʻu hake ʻi he pongipongi, pea naʻa ne pehē, “Tuku au ke u ʻalu ki heʻeku ʻeiki.”
55 Kodwa umnewabo lonina bathi: Kayihlale lathi intombazana izinsuku loba ezilitshumi, emva kwalokho ihambe.
Pea pehēange ʻe hono tuongaʻane mo ʻene faʻē, “Tuku muʻa ke mau nonofo mo e taʻahine ʻi he ʻaho niʻihi, ʻae ʻaho ʻe hongofulu nai; pea hili ia ʻe toki ʻalu atu.”
56 Yasisithi kubo: Lingangibambeleli, lokhu iNkosi iphumelelisile indlela yami; ngiyekelani ngihambe ukuze ngiye enkosini yami.
Pea pehēange ʻe ia kiate kinaua, “ʻOua te mo taʻofi au, he kuo fakamonūʻia ʻe Sihova hoku hala: tuku au ke u ʻalu ki heʻeku ʻeiki.”
57 Basebesithi: Asiyibize intombi, sizwe emlonyeni wayo.
Pea naʻa na pehē, “Te ma ui ʻae taʻahine ʻo fehuʻi mei hono ngutu.”
58 Basebembiza uRebeka, bathi kuye: Uzahamba lalindoda yini? Wasesithi: Ngizahamba.
Pea naʻa na ui ʻa Lepeka, ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Te ke ʻalu mo e tangata ni?” Pea pehēange ʻe ia, “Te u ʻalu.”
59 Basebemyekela ehamba uRebeka udadewabo lomlizane wakhe, lenceku kaAbrahama lamadoda ayo.
Pea naʻa nau tuku ʻa Lepeka ko honau tuofefine ke ne ʻalu mo hono fefine tauhi, mo e tamaioʻeiki ʻa ʻEpalahame, mo ʻene kau tangata.
60 Basebembusisa uRebeka, bathi kuye: Wena dadewethu, woba zinkulungwane zezigidi, lenzalo yakho ibe ngumnikazi wesango labayizondayo!
Pea naʻa nau tāpuaki ʻa Lepeka ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Ko homau tuofefine koe, ʻofa ke ke hoko koe ko e faʻē ʻoe ngaahi toko afe taʻefaʻalaua, pea ke maʻu ʻe ho hako ʻae matapā ʻonautolu ʻoku fehiʻa kiate koe.”
61 URebeka wasesukuma lamantombazana akhe, bagada amakamela, balandela indoda; inceku yasimthatha uRebeka, yahamba.
Pea naʻe tuʻu hake ʻa Lepeka mo hono kau fefine, pea nau heka ʻi he fanga kāmeli ʻo muimui ki he tangata; pea ʻave ʻa Lepeka ʻe he tamaioʻeiki, pea fononga ʻi hono hala.
62 UIsaka wasefika lapho abavelela khona emthonjeni iLahayi-Royi, njalo wayehlala elizweni leningizimu.
Ka naʻe haʻu ʻa ʻAisake ʻi he hala mei he vai ko Lehai-Loʻai; he naʻa ne nofo ʻi he potu tonga.
63 UIsaka wasephuma ukuyazindla ensimini sekuntambama; waphakamisa amehlo akhe wabona, khangela-ke, amakamela ayesiza.
Pea ʻalu atu ʻa ʻAisake ki he ngoue ʻi he efiafi, ke ne lotu; pea ne hanga hake hono mata ʻo sio, pea vakai ʻoku haʻu ʻae fanga kāmeli.
64 LoRebeka waphakamisa amehlo akhe; esembonile uIsaka waziwisa ekamelweni.
Pea hanga hake ʻe Lepeka hono mata, pea ʻi heʻene mamata kia ʻAisake, naʻe ʻalu hifo ia mei he kāmeli.
65 Wasesithi encekwini: Ngubani lindoda ehamba emasimini ukusihlangabeza? Inceku yasisithi: Yinkosi yami. Wasethatha isimbombozo, wazigubuzela.
He kuo ʻosi ʻene fehuʻi ki he tamaioʻeiki, ʻo pehē, ‘Ko hai ʻae tangata ko ia ʻoku haʻu ʻi he ngoue ke fakafetaulaki mai kiate kitautolu?” Pea naʻe pehēange ʻe he tamaioʻeiki, “Ko ʻeku ʻeiki ia: ko ia naʻa ne toʻo ai ʻae pulupulu, ʻo fakapulou ʻaki ia.”
66 Inceku yasilandisa kuIsaka zonke indaba ezenzileyo.
Pea naʻe fakamatala ʻe he tamaioʻeiki kia ʻAisake ʻae ngaahi meʻa kotoa pē naʻa ne fai.
67 UIsaka wasemngenisa ethenteni likaSara unina, wamthatha uRebeka, waba ngumkakhe, wamthanda. UIsaka waseduduzwa emva kokufa kukanina.
Pea naʻe ʻomi ia ʻe ʻAisake ki he fale fehikitaki ʻo ʻene faʻē ko Sela, pea ne maʻu ʻa Lepeka, pea hoko ia ko hono uaifi: pea ʻofa ia kiate ia; pea naʻe fiemālie ʻa ʻAisake ʻi he hili ange [ʻae pekia ]o ʻene faʻē.
