Abram dii mfe aduɔkron akron no, Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no kae se, “Mene Otumfo Nyankopɔn, nantew mʼanim na yɛ pɛ.
2 Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu pakati pangu newe uye ndichakukurisa kwazvo.”
Mesi apam a ɛda me ne wo ntam no so dua, na mama wʼasefo adɔɔso.”
3 Abhurama akawira pasi nechiso chake, uye Mwari akati kwaari,
Abram de nʼanim butuu fam, na Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no se,
4 “Kana ndirini, iyi ndiyo sungano yangu newe: Uchava baba vendudzi zhinji.
“Me fa mu de, saa apam yi na ɛda me ne wo ntam: wobɛyɛ aman bebree agya.
5 Hauchazonzi Abhurama; zita rako richanzi Abhurahama nokuti ndakuita baba vendudzi zhinji.
Wɔremfrɛ wo Abram bio. Wɔbɛfrɛ wo Abraham, efisɛ mayɛ wo aman bebree agya.
6 Ndichakuita kuti uve navana vazhinji; ndichaita ndudzi kubva mauri, uye madzimambo achabva pauri.
Mɛma wʼasefo adɔɔso. Wɔbɛyɛ amanaman bebree na ahemfo nso afi wɔn mu.
7 Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu sesungano isingaperi pakati pangu newe uye nezvizvarwa zvako zvinotevera kumarudzi achauya, kuti ndive Mwari wako naMwari wezvizvarwa zvako zvinotevera.
Mɛma mʼapam no ayɛ daapem apam a ɛbɛda me ne wo ne wʼasefo ne awo ntoatoaso a ɛbɛba no ntam. Na mɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefo Nyankopɔn.
8 Nyika yose yeKenani, mauri mutorwa zvino, ndichaipa kwauri nokusingaperi kuti ive yako nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera; uye ini ndichava Mwari wavo.”
Mede Kanaan asase a nnɛ wote so sɛ ɔhɔho no nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefo a wɔbɛba akyiri no nyinaa. Ɛbɛyɛ wʼagyapade a wo ne obi mmɔ mu hye afebɔɔ. Na mɛyɛ wɔn Nyankopɔn.”
9 Ipapo Mwari akati kuna Abhurahama, “Kana uriwe, unofanira kuchengeta sungano yangu, iwe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera kumarudzi achauya.
Afei, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Abraham se, “Wo de, ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne wʼasefo ne wʼasefo a wɔbɛba akyiri no di mʼapam no so.
10 Iyi ndiyo sungano yangu newe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera, sungano yaunofanira kuchengeta: Munhurume wose ari pakati penyu anofanira kudzingiswa.
Eyi ne mʼapam a ɛda me ne wo ntam a ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne wʼasefo ne wʼasefo a wɔbɛba akyiri no di so. Ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa ɔbarima biara twetia.
11 Munofanira kudzingiswa, uye ichi chichava chiratidzo chesungano pakati pangu newe.
Ɛsɛ sɛ mutwa twetia. Ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ apam a ɛda me ne mo ntam no ho nsɛnkyerɛnne.
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.
Ɔbarima biara a ɔyɛ wʼaseni a wɔbɛwo no no, odi nnaawɔtwe pɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no twetia. Nkoa a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ wo fi ne ɔnanani biara a wuyii sika tɔɔ no fii ɔmamfrani nkyɛn a ɔnyɛ wʼaseni no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no twetia saa ara.
13 Angava akaberekerwa mumba mako kana akatengwa nemari yako, vanofanira kudzingiswa. Sungano yangu panyama yenyu inofanira kuva sungano isingaperi.
Sɛ wɔwoo no wo fi oo, sɛ nso wɔkarii sika kɔtɔɔ no oo, ɛsɛ sɛ wotwa no twetia. Saa honam mu apam yi bɛyɛ daapem apam.
14 Munhurume upi zvake, asina kudzingiswa panyama, achabviswa pavanhu vokwake; aputsa sungano yangu.”
Wɔbɛpam ɔbarima biara a wontwaa no twetia no afi ne nkurɔfo mu, efisɛ saa onipa no anni mʼapam no so.”
15 Mwari akatiwo kuna Abhurahama, “Kana ari Sarai mukadzi wako, hauchazomutizve Sarai; zita rake richanzi Sara.
Onyankopɔn san ka kyerɛɛ Abraham se, “Ɛfa wo yere Sarai ho nso, efi nnɛ rekɔ, woremfrɛ no Sarai bio. Wobɛfrɛ no Sara.
16 Ndichamuropafadza uye zvirokwazvo ndichakupa mwanakomana naye. Ndichamuropafadza kuitira kuti agozova mai vendudzi; madzimambo amarudzi achabva kwaari.”
Mehyira no, na mɛma no awo ɔbabarima ama wo. Mehyira no ama wabɛyɛ aman nyinaa na. Nʼasefo mu na amanaman mu ahemfo befi.”
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?”
Abraham de nʼanim butuw fam bio. Ɔserew bisaa ne ho se, “Ebetumi aba sɛ ɔbarima a wadi mfe ɔha bɛwo ɔba ana? Sara nso a wadi mfe aduɔkron no nso, obetumi awo ɔba ana?”
18 Uye Abhurahama akati kuna Mwari, “Dai hazvo Ishumaeri agara hake pamaropafadzo enyu!”
Na Abraham ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn se, “Onyankopɔn ɛno de, hyira Ismael!”
19 Ipapo Mwari akati, “Hongu, asi mukadzi wako Sara achakuberekera mwanakomana, uye uchamutumidza kuti Isaka. Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu sesungano isingaperi yezvizvarwa zvake zvinomutevera.
Na Onyankopɔn kae se, “Mmom, wo yere Sara bɛwo ɔbabarima ama wo, na wobɛto no din Isak, a ase ne Serew. Me ne no bɛyɛ daapem apam a ɛbɛtena hɔ ama nʼasefo a wɔbɛba akyiri no nyinaa.
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.
Na Ismael ho asɛm a wokae no nso, mate. Mehyira no ama nʼase adɔ bebree. Ɔbɛyɛ abirɛmpɔn dumien agya. Na mɛma no ayɛ ɔman kɛse.
21 Asi ndichasimbisa sungano yangu naIsaka, uyo achaberekerwa iwe naSara nenguva ino gore rinouya.”
Nanso me ne Isak a Sara bɛwo no afe sesɛɛ no na ɛbɛyɛ mʼapam no.”
22 Akati apedza kutaura naAbhurahama, Mwari akakwira kumusoro achibva paari.
Onyankopɔn kasa kyerɛɛ Abraham wiee no, ogyaw no hɔ kɔe.
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.
Saa da no ara, Abraham faa ne babarima Ismael ne mmarima a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ ne fi ne mmarima a wɔtɔɔ wɔn fii ananafo nkyɛn, twitwaa wɔn nyinaa twetia, sɛnea Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no no.
24 Abhurahama akanga ava namakore makumi mapfumbamwe namapfumbamwe okuberekwa paakadzingiswa,
Wotwaa Abraham twetia no, na wadi mfe aduɔkron akron.
25 uye Ishumaeri mwanakomana wake akanga ava namakore gumi namatatu okuberekwa;
Ne babarima Ismael nso, wotwaa no twetia no, na wadi mfe dumiɛnsa.
26 Abhurahama naIshumaeri mwanakomana wake vakadzingiswa vose zuva rimwe chete iroro.
Saa da no ara, na wotwaa Abraham ne ne ba Ismael nyinaa twetia.
27 Uye munhurume wose aiva mumba maAbhurahama, kusanganisa vaya vakaberekerwa mumba make kana vakanga vatengwa kubva kuvatorwa, vakadzingiswa pamwe chete naye.
Ɔbarima biara a ɔwɔ Abraham fi, wɔn a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ Abraham fi ne ɔbarima biara a wɔtɔɔ no fii ɔnanani bi nkyɛn no, wotwitwaa wɔn nyinaa twetia, kaa Abraham ho.
