UGenesisi 26
1 Kwasekusiba khona indlala elizweni, ngaphandle kwendlala yakuqala eyayikhona ensukwini zikaAbrahama. UIsaka wasesiya kuAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti, eGerari.
HE wi no ma ia aina, he okoa ka wi mua i hiki mai ai i ka wa ia Aberahama. A hele aku la o Isaaka io Abimeleka la, i ke alii o ko Pilisetia ma Gerara.
2 INkosi yasibonakala kuye, yathi: Ungehleli eGibhithe, hlala elizweni engizakutshela lona;
Ikea aku la o Iehova e ia, i mai La, Mai hele oe ilalo i Aigupita, E noho iho ma ka aina a'u e hai aku ai ia oe:
3 hlala njengowezizwe kulelilizwe, futhi ngizakuba lawe ngikubusise; ngoba ngizanika wena lenzalo yakho wonke lamazwe, ngiqinise isifungo engasifunga kuAbrahama uyihlo.
E noho oe ma keia aina, a me oe pu no wau, a e hoopomaikai aku no wau ia oe: no ka mea, e haawi aku auanei au nou, a no kau poe mamo i keia mau aina a pau; a e hooko auanei au i ka hoohiki ana a'u i hoohiki ai i kou makuakane ia Aberahama.
4 Ngizakwandisa inzalo yakho njengenkanyezi zamazulu, ngizanika inzalo yakho lamazwe wonke; lenzalweni yakho zizabusiswa izizwe zonke zomhlaba;
A e hoonui aku au i kau poe mamo e like me na hoku o ka lani, a e haawi aku. no wau i keia mau aina a pau no kau poe mamo; a i kau mamo e hoopomaikaiia'i na lahuikanaka a pau o ka honua:
5 ngalokhu ukuthi uAbrahama walalela ilizwi lami, wagcina ukulaya kwami, imilayo yami, izimiso zami lemithetho yami.
No ka mea, i hoolohe mai no o Aberahama i ko'u leo, a i malama hoi i ka'u mau kauoha, i ka'u mau olelo, a me ko'u mau kanawai.
6 UIsaka wahlala-ke eGerari.
A noho iho la o Isaaka ma Gerara.
7 Amadoda aleyondawo asebuza ngomkakhe. Wasesithi: Ungudadewethu; ngoba wesaba ukuthi: Umkami. Hlezi amadoda aleyondawo angibulale ngenxa kaRebeka, ngoba wayekhangeleka kuhle.
Ninau mai la na kanaka o ia wahi ia ia no kana wahine; i aku la ia, O ko'u kaikuwahine no ia: no ka mea, makau iho la ia i ka i aku, Oia ka'u wahine; o pepehi mai na kanaka o ia wahi ia'u no Rebeka; no ka mea, he maikai ia ke nanaia'ku.
8 Kwasekusithi esehlale khona isikhathi eside, uAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti walunguza phansi ngewindi, wabona, khangela-ke, uIsaka wayedlala loRebeka umkakhe.
Ia ia i noho ai ma ia wahi a liuliu, nana mai la o Abimeleka o ke alii o ko Pilisetia, ma ka puka makani, ike mai la ia, aia hoi, o Isaaka e lealea ana me kana wahine, me Rebeka.
9 UAbhimeleki wasembiza uIsaka, wathi: Isibili, khangela, ungumkakho; utsho ngani ukuthi: Ungudadewethu? UIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ngoba ngathi, hlezi ngife ngenxa yakhe.
Hea mai la o Abimeleka ia Isaaka, i mai la, Aia hoi, he oiaio no, o kau wahine no ia; a pehea hoi oe i olelo mai ai, O ko'u kaikuwahine ia? I aku la o Isaaka ia ia, No ka mea, i iho la au, E make paha uanei au nona.
10 UAbhimeleki wasesithi: Kuyini lokhu okwenze kithi? Bekulula ukuthi omunye wabantu alale lomkakho; ubususibeka icala.
I mai la o Abimeleka, Heaha keia au i hana mai ai ia makou? Ina i moe wale paha kekahi o na kanaka me kau wahine, ina ua hooili mai oe i ka hala maluna o makou.
11 UAbhimeleki waselaya wonke umuntu, esithi: Othinta lindoda lomkayo uzabulawa isibili.
Kauoha aku o Abimeleka i na kanaka a pau, i ka i ana, O ka mea hoopa aku i keia kanaka, a i kana wahine paha, he oiaio e make ia.
12 UIsaka wasehlanyela kulelolizwe, wathola ngalowomnyaka okuphindwe kalikhulu; iNkosi yasimbusisa.
Lulu hua iho la o Isaaka ma ia aina, a loaa pahaneri mai la ia ia ia makahiki: a hoopomaikai mai la o Iehova ia ia.
13 Lowomuntu waba mkhulu, waqhubeqhubeka waba mkhulu waze waba mkhulu kakhulu.
Lilo ae la ua kanaka la i mea nui, mahuahua ae la ia, ulu ae la, a lilo i kanaka nui loa:
14 Njalo wayelemfuyo yezimvu lemfuyo yezinkomo lenceku ezinengi; ngakho amaFilisti aba lomhawu ngaye.
No ka mea, nana na hipa, a me na bipi, a me na kanaka he nui loa: a huahuwa mai la ko Pilisetia ia ia.
15 Lemithombo yonke izinceku zikayise ezaziyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, amaFilisti ayeyivalile, ayigcwalisa ngenhlabathi.
A o na punawai a pau i eliia e na kauwa a kona makuakane, i ka wa ia Aberahama, huna ae la ko Pilisetia ia mau mea i ka hoopiha i ka lepo.
16 UAbhimeleki wasesithi kuIsaka: Suka kithi, ngoba ulamandla kakhulu kulathi.
Olelo mai la o Abimeleka ia Isaaka, E hele aku oe mai o makou aku, no ka mea, ua nui loa aku kau, i ka makou.
17 UIsaka wasesuka lapho, wamisa inkamba esigodini seGerari, wahlala khona.
Hele aku la o Isaaka, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ma ke awawa o Gerara, a noho iho la ilaila.
18 UIsaka wabuya waphanda imithombo yamanzi ababeyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, ngoba amaFilisti ayeyivalile emva kokufa kukaAbrahama. Wayibiza amabizo ngamabizo uyise ayewabizile.
Eli hou iho la o Isaaka i na luawai a lakou i eli iho ai i ka wa ia Aberahama o kona makuakane; no ka mea, ua huna iho ko Pilisetia ia mau mea mahope o ka make ana o Aberahama: a kapa iho la ia i ko lakou mau inoa, ma na inoa a kona makuakane i kapa iho ai.
19 Izinceku zikaIsaka zasezigebha esihotsheni, zathola khona umthombo wamanzi agobhozayo.
Eli iho la na kanwa a Isaaka ma ke awawa, a loaa iho la ka punawai ilaila, he wai mau.
20 Njalo abelusi beGerari babangisana labelusi bakaIsaka, besithi: Amanzi ngawethu. Ngakho wabiza ibizo lomthombo iEseki, ngoba baphikisana laye.
Hakaka mai la na kahu bipi no Gerara me na kahu bipi o Isaaka, i ka i ana mai, No makou ia wai: a kapa iho la ia i ka inoa o ua luawai la, o Eseka, no ko lakou hakaka ana mai me ia.
21 Zasezigebha omunye umthombo, lalowo-ke bawubanga. Wasebiza ibizo lawo iSitina.
Eli iho la hoi lakou i ka luawai hou, a hakaka mai no hoi lakou no ia mea: a kapa iho la oia i kona inoa, o Sitena.
22 Waseqhubeka wasuka lapho, wagebha omunye umthombo, kodwa lowo kabawubanganga. Wasewubiza ibizo lawo iRehobothi, wathi: Ngoba iNkosi isisenzele indawo, futhi sizakuba lesithelo elizweni.
Neenee aku la ia mai ia wahi aku, a eli iho la i ka luawai hou; aole no lakou i hakaka mai no ia mea: a kapa iho la oia i kona inoa, o i Rehobota: i iho la ia, ano hoi, ua haawi mai o Iehova i kahi akea no kakou; a e hoohua auanei kakou ma ka aina.
23 Wasesenyuka lapho waya eBherishebha.
A mahope aku, pii aku la ia malaila aku a Beereseba.
24 INkosi yasibonakala kuye ngalobobusuku yathi: NginguNkulunkulu kaAbrahama uyihlo. Ungesabi ngoba ngilawe, ngizakubusisa ngiyandise inzalo yakho ngenxa kaAbrahama inceku yami.
Ikea ae la o Iehova e ia ia po iho, i mai la, Owau no ke Akua o Aberahama o kou makuakane: mai makau oe, owau no me oe, a e hoopomaikai no au ia oe a e hoonui hoi i kau poe mamo no ka'u kauwa, no Aberahama.
25 Wasesakha khona ilathi, wabiza ebizweni leNkosi, wamisa khona ithente lakhe, lenceku zikaIsaka zagebha khona umthombo.
Hana iho la ia i kuahu malaila, a kahea aku la ia i ka inoa o Iehova, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ilaila: ilaila hoi na kauwa a Isaaka i eli iho ai i ka luawai.
26 UAbhimeleki wasesiya kuye evela eGerari loAhuzathi umngane wakhe loFikoli induna yebutho lakhe.
Alaila, hele mai la io na la o Abimeleka mai Gerara mai, oia me Ahuzata kekahi hoalauna ona, a me Pikola ka luna koa o kona poe kaua.
27 UIsaka wasesithi kubo: Lizeleni kimi, lokhu liyangizonda, lingixotshile kini?
I aku la o Isaaka ia lakou, Heaha ka oukou i hele mai ai io'u nei, no ka mea, ke inaina mai nei oukou ia'u, a ua hookuke mai nei oukou ia'u mai o oukou aku.
28 Basebesithi: Sesibonile lokubona ukuthi iNkosi ilawe. Ngakho sathi: Ake kube khona isifungo phakathi kwethu, phakathi kwethu lawe, asenze isivumelwano lawe,
Olelo mai la lakou, Ua ike io makou, aia no o Iehova me oe: olelo ae la makou, I hoohiki ana mawaena o kakou, o makou nei, a on la, a e hoopaa makou i berita me oe;
29 sokuthi ungasenzeli okubi, njengoba singakuthintanga, njengoba sikwenzele okuhle kuphela, sakuyekela wahamba ngokuthula; wena khathesi ungobusisiweyo weNkosi.
I hana ino ole mai oe ia makou, me makou i hoopa ole aku ai ia oe, o ka maikai wale no ka makou i hana aku ai ia oe, a ua hoihoi aku ia oe me ka maluhia: o oe io no ka mea i hoopomaikaiia e Iehova.
30 Wasebenzela idili, basebesidla banatha.
Hana iho la ia i ahaaina na lakou, ai iho la lakou a inu hoi.
31 Basebevuka ekuseni kakhulu, bafungisana omunye komunye; uIsaka wasebayekela bahamba, basuka kuye ngokuthula.
Ala ae la lakou i kakahiaka nui, a hoohiki iho la laua, i kekahi i kekahi: hookuu aku la o Isaaka ia lakou, a hoi hou aku la lakou mai ona aku la me ke kuikahi.
32 Kwasekusithi ngalolosuku izinceku zikaIsaka zafika, zambikela mayelana lomthombo ezaziwugebhile, zathi kuye: Sithole amanzi.
Ia la hookahi no, hele mai la na kauwa a Isaaka, a hai mai la ia ia no ka luawai a lakou i eli iho ai, i mai la ia ia, Ua loaa ia makou ka wai.
33 Wawubiza ngokuthi yiShebha; ngakho ibizo lomuzi liyiBherishebha kuze kube lamuhla.
Kapa iho la oia ia wahi, o Seba: nolaila, o Beereseba ka inoa o ia kulanakauhale a hiki i keia la.
34 Kwasekusithi uEsawu eseleminyaka engamatshumi amane wathatha umfazi uJudithi indodakazi kaBeri umHethi, loBasemathi indodakazi kaEloni umHethi.
Hookahi kanaha na makahiki o Esau ia ia i lawe ai ia Iehudita ke kaikamahine a Beeri no ka Heta, a me Basemata ke kaikamahine a Elona no ka Heta, i mau wahine nana:
35 Lalaba baba lusizi lwawo umoya kuIsaka loRebeka.
He mau mea ehaeha laua no ka naau o Isaaka a me Rebeka.
