6 Ndichakuita kuti uve navana vazhinji; ndichaita ndudzi kubva mauri, uye madzimambo achabva pauri.
Nagra kazeri ra hanena kagripinti hakare'a kokankoka vahera fore nehanageno, kini vahe'enena fore hugahaze.
7 Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu sesungano isingaperi pakati pangu newe uye nezvizvarwa zvako zvinotevera kumarudzi achauya, kuti ndive Mwari wako naMwari wezvizvarwa zvako zvinotevera.

8 Nyika yose yeKenani, mauri mutorwa zvino, ndichaipa kwauri nokusingaperi kuti ive yako nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera; uye ini ndichava Mwari wavo.”
Kagri'ene, kagehe'ine, henkama fore hanamokizmine kragama emanina Kenani mopa tamivaneroe. Ana mopamo'a tamagriza seno mevava nehina, Nagra zamagri Anumza manigahue.
9 Ipapo Mwari akati kuna Abhurahama, “Kana uriwe, unofanira kuchengeta sungano yangu, iwe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera kumarudzi achauya.
Hagi Anumzamo'a mago'ene amanage huno Abrahamuna asami'ne, Kagrane mofavrezaga ka'ane, kase anante anante hanamozanena huvempa keni'a amage anteho.
10 Iyi ndiyo sungano yangu newe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera, sungano yaunofanira kuchengeta: Munhurume wose ari pakati penyu anofanira kudzingiswa.
Nagranema huhagerafi'nonku amanahu hugahaze, ne' mofavretmia mika zamagozamofo amega anoma'a taga hutregahaze. Henkama fore hu' anante anante'ma hu'za vanaza vahe'mo'zanena ana zanke hugahaze.
11 Munofanira kudzingiswa, uye ichi chichava chiratidzo chesungano pakati pangu newe.
Abrahamuga, Nagrane huhagerafi'noa zamofo avame'zama mesiana, kagozamofo amega noma'a taga hutro.
12 Kubva kuzvizvarwa zvinotevera, mwanakomana mumwe nomumwe ari pakati penyu ava namazuva masere okuberekwa anofanira kudzingiswa, kusanganisa navaya vakaberekerwa mumba mako kana vakatengwa nemari kumutorwa, vaya vasiri vana vako.
Hagi maka ne' mofavre'ma kasentesamokizmia 8ti zage gnare, knane knanena henkama fore hanaza mofavre'mokizmi zamufga taga hugahaze. Nonka'afima eri'za vahe'mo'ma kasentesia vahe'pinti'ene zagoreti'ma mizasesana vahe'ma aruregati e'nesia vahe'enena zamufa taga huzmantegahaze.
13 Angava akaberekerwa mumba mako kana akatengwa nemari yako, vanofanira kudzingiswa. Sungano yangu panyama yenyu inofanira kuva sungano isingaperi.
Kagri nompima mani'ne'za kasentenesa vahepi, zagoreti miza hu'nenaza vahe'mo'zanena, zamagoza anoma'a taga hugahaze. E'inama hanaza zamo'a Nagranema huhagerafi'noa zamofo avame'za zamagri zamufgarera mevava hugahie.
14 Munhurume upi zvake, asina kudzingiswa panyama, achabviswa pavanhu vokwake; aputsa sungano yangu.”
Hagi agoza anoma taga osanimo'a, Nagranema huhagerafi'noa kea ruhantaginigu, agrira naga'afintira avre atregahaze.
15 Mwari akatiwo kuna Abhurahama, “Kana ari Sarai mukadzi wako, hauchazomutizve Sarai; zita rake richanzi Sara.
Hanki Anumzamo'a amanage huno Abrahamuna asami'ne, kotera negnarona Sarai'e hu'nane. Hagi menina kasefa agi'a Sera'e hunka hugahane.
16 Ndichamuropafadza uye zvirokwazvo ndichakupa mwanakomana naye. Ndichamuropafadza kuitira kuti agozova mai vendudzi; madzimambo amarudzi achabva kwaari.”
Nagra Serana asomu huntesugeno, agra mofavre eri fore hunegamina, asomu huntanena hakare vahe'mokizmi antazmiza nehanigeno, agripinti kini vahera fore hugahaze.
17 Abhurahama akawira pasi nechiso chake, akaseka uye akati mumwoyo make, “Ko, mwanakomana angaberekwa nomunhu ava namakore zana okuberekwa here? Ko, Sara angabereka mwana iye ava namakore makumi mapfumbamwe here?”
Abrahamu'a rena reno kepri huno agu'afina kizanereno anage hu'ne, Nagra 100'a zagegafu hugeno Sera'a 90'a zagegafu higeta, ko' ozafa tavava re'noanki, inankna huta mofavre kasentenaku nehukeno nehie?
18 Uye Abhurahama akati kuna Mwari, “Dai hazvo Ishumaeri agara hake pamaropafadzo enyu!”
Abrahamu'a amanage huno Anumzamofo kenona hu'ne, knare Ismaeli'a kavure mani'neno asomura erigahie!
19 Ipapo Mwari akati, “Hongu, asi mukadzi wako Sara achakuberekera mwanakomana, uye uchamutumidza kuti Isaka. Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu sesungano isingaperi yezvizvarwa zvake zvinomutevera.
Hianagi Anumzamo'a amanage hu'ne, A'o tamage huno negnaro Sera'a mofavre kasentesigenka, agi'a Aisaki'e hunka antegahane. Nagra agrane huvempa hanugeno ana huvempa kemo'a agrite'ene, agripinti'ma henkama fore hu anante anante'ma hanaza vahete'ene mevava huno vugahie.
20 Uye kana ari Ishumaeri, ndakanzwa: Ndichamuropafadza zvirokwazvo, ndichamuita kuti ave navana vazhinji uye ndichaita kuti vawande kwazvo. Achava baba wavatongi gumi navaviri, uye ndichamuita rudzi rukuru.
Ismaeli kazigagu'ma nantahima kanana, hago antahuanki'na Nagra asomu huntesugeno, agripintira rama'a vahe fore hu'za manigahaze. Ana nehanageno 12fu'a kva vahe'mokizmi nezmafaza hugahie. Nagra agehemokizmia zamazeri hankavetisuge'za hanvenentake vahe manigahaze.
21 Asi ndichasimbisa sungano yangu naIsaka, uyo achaberekerwa iwe naSara nenguva ino gore rinouya.”
Hianagi Nagra hu hagerafi huvempa ke'ni'a, Sera'ma kasentesia mofavre Aisakinte eri hanavetigahue. Ama ana knare anaga'a kafufi kasentegahie.
22 Akati apedza kutaura naAbhurahama, Mwari akakwira kumusoro achibva paari.
Anumzamo'a anage huno Abrahamu asmiteno, atreno vu'ne.
23 Pazuva racho iroro Abhurahama akatora mwanakomana wake Ishumaeri navose vakaberekwa mumba make kana vakanga vatengwa nemari, vanhurume vose vaiva mumba make, akavadzingisa, sezvaakanga audzwa naMwari.

24 Abhurahama akanga ava namakore makumi mapfumbamwe namapfumbamwe okuberekwa paakadzingiswa,
