1 Abrahaam achii kaʼee Negeebitti godaanee Qaadeshii fi Shuuri gidduu jiraate. Innis yeroodhaaf Geraaraa keessa ture.
Abrahamu anachokako kumeneko napita ku Negevi ndipo anakakhala ku dziko la Gerari, limene lili pakati pa mzinda wa Kadesi ndi mzinda wa Suri. Anakhala ku Gerari kwa kanthawi,
2 Achittis Abrahaam, “Isheen obboleettii koo ti” jedhee waaʼee niitii isaa, waaʼee Saaraa dubbate. Abiimelek mootiin Geraaraas nama itti ergee Saaraa fudhate.
ndipo Abrahamu ankawawuza za Sara kuti, “Iyeyu ndi mlongo wanga.” Choncho Abimeleki, mfumu wa ku Gerari anamutenga Sara uja.
3 Waaqni immoo halkan abjuudhaan Abiimelekitti dhufee, “Kunoo sababii dubartii sana fuudhatteef ati nama duʼee dha; isheen dhirsa qabdiitii” jedheen.
Koma usiku, Mulungu anafika kwa Abimeleki kutulo nati, “Ufatu iwe chifukwa cha mkazi amene watengayu popeza ndi wokwatiwa.”
4 Abiimelek garuu isheetti hin dhiʼaanne ture; kanaafuu inni akkana jedhe; “Yaa Gooftaa ati saba qajeelaa balleessitaa?
Nthawi imeneyi nʼkuti Abimeleki asanamukhudze mkaziyo, kotero kuti anati, “Ambuye, kodi mudzawonongadi mtundu wolungama?
5 Inni mataan isaa, ‘Isheen obboleettii koo ti’ naan hin jennee? Isheenis akkasuma, ‘Inni obboleessa koo ti’ hin jennee? Anis sammuu qulqulluu fi harka qulqulluudhaan waan kana hojjedhe.”
Kodi Abrahamu sanandiwuze kuti iyeyu ndi mlongo wake? Ndiponso mkaziyu ankanena kuti Abrahamu ndi mlongo wake. Choncho ine pochita izi, ndinkachita moona mtima ndiponso mopanda chinyengo.”
6 Waaqni abjuu sana keessa akkana isaan jedhe; “Eeyyee! Ani akka ati sammuu qulqulluudhaan waan kana hojjette beeka; kanaafuu ani akka ati cubbuu natti hin hojjenneef si dhowween jira. Sababiin ani akka ati ishee bira geessu si hin dhiisiniifis kanuma.
Tsono kumaloto komweko Mulungu anati kwa iye, “Inde ndikudziwa kuti wachita izi moona mtima, ndipo Ine sindinafune kuti undichimwire. Nʼchifukwa chake sindinakulole kuti umukhudze.
7 Egaa amma niitii namichaa deebisiif; inni waan raajii taʼeef, Waaqa siif kadhata; atis ni jiraatta. Garuu yoo ishee deebisuu baatte, ati akka duutu, warri kan kee taʼan hundis akka duʼan dhugumaan beeki.”
Tsopano kabwezere mkaziyo kwa mwamuna wake. Iyeyu ndi mneneri, ndipo adzakupempherera kuti ukhale ndi moyo. Koma ukapanda kukamupereka, udziwiretu kuti udzafa pamodzi ndi onse a pa banja pako.”
8 Abiimelek guyyaa itti aanu ganama obboroon kaʼee qondaaltota isaa hunda walitti waamee waan taʼe hunda isaanitti hime; isaanis akka malee sodaatan.
Mmamawa mwake Abimeleki anayitanitsa akuluakulu ake onse, ndipo atawafotokozera zimene zinachitika, iwo aja anachita mantha kwambiri.
9 Abiimelekis Abrahaamin ofitti waamee akkana jedheen; “Ati maaliif akkana nu goote? Ani maal si goonaan ati cubbuu guddaa akkanaa anaa fi mootummaa kootti fidde? Ati waan namni hin hojjenne anatti hojjette.”
Kenaka Abimeleki anayitana Abrahamu ndipo anati, “Kodi wachita chiyani? Ndakulakwira chiyani kuti undibweretsere ine pamodzi ndi anthu anga chilango chachikulu chotere? Wandichitira zinthu zimene sizinayenera kuchitika.”
10 Abiimelekis “Ati maaliif waan kana hojjette?” jedhee Abrahaamin gaafate.
Ndipo Abrahamu anafunsa Abimeleki kuti, “Chifukwa chiyani wachita zimenezi?”
11 Abrahaam immoo akkana jedhee deebise; “Ani, ‘Biyya kana keessa dhugumaan Waaqa sodaachuun hin jiru; isaan sababii niitii kootiif jedhanii na ajjeesu’ jedheen yaadee ture.
Abrahamu anayankha nati, “Ndinkaganiza kuti kuno kulibiretu munthu woopa Mulungu. Ndiye ndimati mwina adzandipha chifukwa cha mkazi wanga.
12 Taʼus isheen dhugumaan obboleettii koo ti; yoo haadha koo irraa dhalachuu baatte iyyuu isheen intaluma abbaa koo ti; isheenis niitii koo taate.
Komabe kunena zoona, iyeyu ndi mlongo wangadi, mwana wamkazi wa abambo anga ngakhale kuti si ife a mayi mmodzi. Tsono akhoza kukhala mkazi wanga.
13 Anis yeroo Waaqni mana abbaa kootii na baase sana isheedhaan, ‘Haalli ati ittiin jaalala naaf qabdu mulʼiftu kanaa dha; lafa nu dhaqnu hundumaatti, “Inni obboleessa koo ti” jedhiitii waaʼee koo dubbadhun’ jedhe.”
Ndiye pamene Mulungu anati ndichoke ku nyumba ya abambo anga, ndinawuza mkazi wangayu kuti, ‘Kuti uwonetse kuti ndiwe mkazi wokoma mtima, uziwuza anthu kulikonse kumene tingapite kuti ndine mlongo wako.’”
14 Abiimelek ergasii hoolaa fi loon, garboota dhiiraa fi nadheenii fidee Abrahaamiif kenne; niitii isaa Saaraas ni deebiseef.
Tsono Abimeleki anapereka nkhosa, ngʼombe ndi antchito aamuna ndi aakazi kwa Abrahamu. Ndipo anamubwezeranso Abrahamu Sara, mkazi wake.
15 Abiimelekis, “Kunoo biyyi koo fuula kee dura jira; idduma feete jiraadhu” jedheen.
Tsono Abimeleki anati kwa Abrahamu, “Dziko langa ndi limene ukulionali; ukhale paliponse pamene ufuna.”
16 Saaraadhaanis, “Kunoo ani meetii saqilii kuma tokko obboleessa keetiifin kenna. Kunis akka dhugaa qabaachuun kee fuula warra si wajjin jiranii duratti beekamuuf; ati guutumaan guutuutti dhugaa argatteerta” jedhe.
Ndipo kwa Sara, iye anati, “Ndikumupatsa mlongo wakoyu makilogalamu khumi ndi awiri a siliva kutsimikiza kuti iwe ndi wosalakwa pamaso pa onse amene ali ndi iwe; ulibedi mlandu.”
17 Abrahaamis Waaqa kadhate; Waaqni immoo Abiimelek, niitii isaatii fi garboota isaa dubartoota fayyise; isaanis ijoollee godhatan.
Tsono Abrahamu anapemphera kwa Mulungu ndipo Mulunguyo anachiritsa Abimeleki, mkazi wake pamodzi ndi adzakazi ake kuti athenso kubereka ana.
18 Waaqayyo sababii niitii Abrahaam sababii Saaraatiif jedhee gadameessa dubartoota mana Abiimelek jiraatanii hunda cufee tureetii.
Paja Yehova nʼkuti atatseka akazi onse a mʼbanja la Abimeleki kuti asabereke ana chifukwa cha Sara, mkazi wa Abrahamu.
