UGenesisi 26
1 Kwasekusiba khona indlala elizweni, ngaphandle kwendlala yakuqala eyayikhona ensukwini zikaAbrahama. UIsaka wasesiya kuAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti, eGerari.
Afei, ɛkɔm kɛseɛ bi baa asase no so. Saa ɛkɔm kɛseɛ no sene deɛ ɛbaa Abraham berɛ so no. Ɛno enti, Isak tu kɔtenaa Gerar a ɛyɛ Filistifoɔ ɔhene Abimelek kuro mu.
2 INkosi yasibonakala kuye, yathi: Ungehleli eGibhithe, hlala elizweni engizakutshela lona;
Ɛhɔ na Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ Isak, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Nkɔ Misraim, na mmom, tena asase a mɛkyerɛ wo no so.
3 hlala njengowezizwe kulelilizwe, futhi ngizakuba lawe ngikubusise; ngoba ngizanika wena lenzalo yakho wonke lamazwe, ngiqinise isifungo engasifunga kuAbrahama uyihlo.
Tena asase yi so kakra, ɛfiri sɛ, mede saa asase no nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefoɔ, na mede asi ɛbɔ a mehyɛɛ wʼagya Abraham no so dua.
4 Ngizakwandisa inzalo yakho njengenkanyezi zamazulu, ngizanika inzalo yakho lamazwe wonke; lenzalweni yakho zizabusiswa izizwe zonke zomhlaba;
Mɛma wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso te sɛ nsoromma a ɛwɔ soro, na mede saa nsase yi nyinaa ama wɔn. Ɛnam wʼasefoɔ so na wɔbɛhyira ewiase aman ahodoɔ nyinaa.
5 ngalokhu ukuthi uAbrahama walalela ilizwi lami, wagcina ukulaya kwami, imilayo yami, izimiso zami lemithetho yami.
Ɛfiri sɛ, Abraham tiee me nne, dii me nsɛm, mʼahyɛdeɛ ne me mmara nyinaa so.”
6 UIsaka wahlala-ke eGerari.
Enti, Isak tenaa Gerar.
7 Amadoda aleyondawo asebuza ngomkakhe. Wasesithi: Ungudadewethu; ngoba wesaba ukuthi: Umkami. Hlezi amadoda aleyondawo angibulale ngenxa kaRebeka, ngoba wayekhangeleka kuhle.
Ɛberɛ a Gerar mmarima bisaa Isak yere Rebeka ho asɛm no, ɔkaa sɛ, “Ɔyɛ me nuabaa.” Ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔsuro sɛ ɔbɛka sɛ, “Ɔyɛ me yere.” Ɔkaa saa asɛm yi, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔsusu sɛ, ɛsiane ne yere Rebeka ahoɔfɛ enti, anhwɛ a, na kurom hɔ mmarima akum no.
8 Kwasekusithi esehlale khona isikhathi eside, uAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti walunguza phansi ngewindi, wabona, khangela-ke, uIsaka wayedlala loRebeka umkakhe.
Isak tenaa hɔ kyɛɛ kakra no, ɛda bi, Filistifoɔ ɔhene Abimelek gyina ne mpomma mu na ɔhunuu sɛ Isak regoro ne yere Rebeka ho.
9 UAbhimeleki wasembiza uIsaka, wathi: Isibili, khangela, ungumkakho; utsho ngani ukuthi: Ungudadewethu? UIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ngoba ngathi, hlezi ngife ngenxa yakhe.
Ɛno enti, Abimelek soma ma wɔkɔfrɛɛ Isak. Isak baeɛ no, ɔbisaa no sɛ, “Ɔbaa no yɛ wo yere ankasa. Adɛn enti na woka sɛ, ‘Ɔyɛ me nuabaa?’” Isak buaa no sɛ, “Mesusuu sɛ, sɛ meka sɛ ɔyɛ me yere a, ne enti, ebia, na wɔakum me.”
10 UAbhimeleki wasesithi: Kuyini lokhu okwenze kithi? Bekulula ukuthi omunye wabantu alale lomkakho; ubususibeka icala.
Ɛnna ɔhene Abimelek kaa sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn asɛm na wo ne yɛn adi yi? Nokorɛ a woamma anna adi enti, anka obi bɛtumi afa wo yere no, na wode mmusuo aba yɛn so.”
11 UAbhimeleki waselaya wonke umuntu, esithi: Othinta lindoda lomkayo uzabulawa isibili.
Ɛno enti, Abimelek bɔɔ ne manfoɔ no kɔkɔ sɛ, “Obiara a ɔde ne nsa bɛka saa ɔbarima yi, anaa ne yere no, ɛkwan biara so, wɔbɛkum no.”
12 UIsaka wasehlanyela kulelolizwe, wathola ngalowomnyaka okuphindwe kalikhulu; iNkosi yasimbusisa.
Saa afe no ara Yakob dɔɔ afuo. Na Awurade hyiraa nʼadwumadeɛ so. Ne nnɔbaeɛ baa bebree.
13 Lowomuntu waba mkhulu, waqhubeqhubeka waba mkhulu waze waba mkhulu kakhulu.
Isak yɛɛ ɔdefoɔ. Nʼahonya kɔɔ so dɔɔso, ma ɔdii taamu.
14 Njalo wayelemfuyo yezimvu lemfuyo yezinkomo lenceku ezinengi; ngakho amaFilisti aba lomhawu ngaye.
Ɔnyaa nnwan, anantwie, ne asomfoɔ bebree, ma ɛyɛɛ saa maa Filistifoɔ no ani beree no yie. Saa anibereɛ yi enti, Filistifoɔ no de dɔteɛ kɔsisii
15 Lemithombo yonke izinceku zikayise ezaziyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, amaFilisti ayeyivalile, ayigcwalisa ngenhlabathi.
abura ahodoɔ a nʼagya Abraham maa ne nkoa tutuu wɔ ne berɛ so no nyinaa ano.
16 UAbhimeleki wasesithi kuIsaka: Suka kithi, ngoba ulamandla kakhulu kulathi.
Ɛbaa saa no, ɔhene Abimelek ka kyerɛɛ Isak sɛ, “Tu firi yɛn asase so, ɛfiri sɛ, wʼahonya dodoɔ aka yɛn ahyɛ.”
17 UIsaka wasesuka lapho, wamisa inkamba esigodini seGerari, wahlala khona.
Isak tu firii Gerar kuro no mu, kɔɔ Gerar subɔnhwa mu de hɔ kɔyɛɛ nʼatenaeɛ.
18 UIsaka wabuya waphanda imithombo yamanzi ababeyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, ngoba amaFilisti ayeyivalile emva kokufa kukaAbrahama. Wayibiza amabizo ngamabizo uyise ayewabizile.
Enti, Isak maa ne nkoa sane tutuu mmura a nʼagya Abraham maa ne nkoa tutuiɛ a ne wuo akyiri no, Filistifoɔ no sisii ne nyinaa no. Ɔsane de edin korɔ no ara a nʼagya Abraham de totoo mmura no totoo no bio.
19 Izinceku zikaIsaka zasezigebha esihotsheni, zathola khona umthombo wamanzi agobhozayo.
Isak nkoa no tuu abura foforɔ bi wɔ Gerar subɔnhwa no mu, kɔtoo nsuo a ɛyɛ korɔgyenn.
20 Njalo abelusi beGerari babangisana labelusi bakaIsaka, besithi: Amanzi ngawethu. Ngakho wabiza ibizo lomthombo iEseki, ngoba baphikisana laye.
Nanso, Gerar nnwanhwɛfoɔ ne Isak nnwanhwɛfoɔ gyee abura no ho akyinnyeɛ. Gerar nnwanhwɛfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Abura yi yɛ yɛn dea.” Yei maa Isak too saa abura no edin Esek, a aseɛ kyerɛ akyinnyegyeɛ abura.
21 Zasezigebha omunye umthombo, lalowo-ke bawubanga. Wasebiza ibizo lawo iSitina.
Isak nkoa no sane tuu abura foforɔ, nanso Gerar nnwanhwɛfoɔ no sane ne wɔn kasakasaa ɛno nso so. Yei maa Isak sane too saa abura no nso edin Sitna, a aseɛ kyerɛ Aperedie.
22 Waseqhubeka wasuka lapho, wagebha omunye umthombo, kodwa lowo kabawubanganga. Wasewubiza ibizo lawo iRehobothi, wathi: Ngoba iNkosi isisenzele indawo, futhi sizakuba lesithelo elizweni.
Isak gyaa saa abura no hɔ kɔtuu abura foforɔ. Afei, nnipa a wɔne no te hɔ no gyaee no haw a obiara ne no ankasa so bio. Yei maa Isak too saa abura yi edin Rehobot a aseɛ ne “Afei deɛ Awurade abɔ yɛn atenaseɛ na yɛbɛnya yɛn ho wɔ asase yi so.”
23 Wasesenyuka lapho waya eBherishebha.
Isak tu firii hɔ kɔɔ Beer-Seba.
24 INkosi yasibonakala kuye ngalobobusuku yathi: NginguNkulunkulu kaAbrahama uyihlo. Ungesabi ngoba ngilawe, ngizakubusisa ngiyandise inzalo yakho ngenxa kaAbrahama inceku yami.
Anadwo no, Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no, ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Mene wʼagya, Abraham Onyankopɔn. Nsuro, ɛfiri sɛ, me ne wo na ɛwɔ hɔ. Ɛbɔ a mahyɛ mʼakoa Abraham enti, mɛhyira wo, na mama wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso, na wɔayɛ ɔman kɛseɛ.”
25 Wasesakha khona ilathi, wabiza ebizweni leNkosi, wamisa khona ithente lakhe, lenceku zikaIsaka zagebha khona umthombo.
Isak sii afɔrebukyia, somm Awurade wɔ hɔ. Ɔsii ntomadan, tenaa hɔ, na ne nkoa nso tuu abura maa no.
26 UAbhimeleki wasesiya kuye evela eGerari loAhuzathi umngane wakhe loFikoli induna yebutho lakhe.
Ɛda bi, ɔhene Abimelek ne ne fotufoɔ Ahusad ne ne sahene Pikol firi Gerar bɛsraa Isak.
27 UIsaka wasesithi kubo: Lizeleni kimi, lokhu liyangizonda, lingixotshile kini?
Isak bisaa wɔn sɛ, “Adɛn enti na mo a na mo ne me nka, na mopamoo me firii mo nkyɛn aba me ha ɛnnɛ sɛ morebɛsra me?”
28 Basebesithi: Sesibonile lokubona ukuthi iNkosi ilawe. Ngakho sathi: Ake kube khona isifungo phakathi kwethu, phakathi kwethu lawe, asenze isivumelwano lawe,
Wɔbuaa no sɛ, “Yɛhunu pefee sɛ Awurade wɔ wʼafa enti, yɛasi gyinaeɛ sɛ, yɛne wo bɛyɛ apam. Apam no bɛda wo ne yɛn ntam. Pene so, na yɛne wo nyɛ saa apam no,
29 sokuthi ungasenzeli okubi, njengoba singakuthintanga, njengoba sikwenzele okuhle kuphela, sakuyekela wahamba ngokuthula; wena khathesi ungobusisiweyo weNkosi.
Ka yɛn ntam sɛ, worenha yɛn, sɛdeɛ yɛn nso, yɛanha wo no. Yɛne wo tenaa yie. Yɛgyaa wo kwan asomdwoeɛ mu. Afei, hwɛ sɛdeɛ Awurade ahyira wo.”
30 Wasebenzela idili, basebesidla banatha.
Isak too wɔn ɛpono, na wɔdidi nomeeɛ de twɛn apam a wɔne no rebɛyɛ no.
31 Basebevuka ekuseni kakhulu, bafungisana omunye komunye; uIsaka wasebayekela bahamba, basuka kuye ngokuthula.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpa no, Isak ne mmarima no kekaa wɔn ho wɔn ho ntam, de sii wɔn apam a wɔayɛ no so dua. Afei, Isak gyaa wɔn kwan, ma wɔkɔɔ asomdwoeɛ mu.
32 Kwasekusithi ngalolosuku izinceku zikaIsaka zafika, zambikela mayelana lomthombo ezaziwugebhile, zathi kuye: Sithole amanzi.
Ɛda no ara, Isak asomfoɔ bɛkaa abura a na wɔretu no ho asɛm kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Yɛato nsuo.”
33 Wawubiza ngokuthi yiShebha; ngakho ibizo lomuzi liyiBherishebha kuze kube lamuhla.
Isak too abura no edin Seba, a aseɛ kyerɛ sɛ “Ntanka abura.” Kuro a akyire no wɔkyekyeree wɔ hɔ no, wɔtoo hɔ edin Beer-Seba a ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ, wɔda so frɛ hɔ saa ara.
34 Kwasekusithi uEsawu eseleminyaka engamatshumi amane wathatha umfazi uJudithi indodakazi kaBeri umHethi, loBasemathi indodakazi kaEloni umHethi.
Esau dii mfeɛ aduanan no, ɔwaree ababaawa bi a na wɔfrɛ no Yudit. Na nʼagya yɛ Hetini bi a ne din de Beeri. Esau sane waree Basmat a nʼagya yɛ Hetini bi a ne din de Elon.
35 Lalaba baba lusizi lwawo umoya kuIsaka loRebeka.
Nanso, Isak ne Rebeka bo annwo saa awadeɛ no so.
