Abram dii mfeɛ aduɔkron nkron no, Awurade yii ne ho adi kyerɛɛ no kaa sɛ, “Mene Otumfoɔ Onyankopɔn, nante mʼanim na yɛ pɛ.
2 Ndichasimbisa sungano yangu pakati pangu newe uye ndichakukurisa kwazvo.”
Mɛsi apam a ɛda me ne wo ntam no so dua, na mama wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso.”
3 Abhurama akawira pasi nechiso chake, uye Mwari akati kwaari,
Abram de nʼanim butuu fam, na Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ,
4 “Kana ndirini, iyi ndiyo sungano yangu newe: Uchava baba vendudzi zhinji.
“Me fa mu deɛ, 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, ɛfiri sɛ, mayɛ wo aman bebree agya.
6 Ndichakuita kuti uve navana vazhinji; ndichaita ndudzi kubva mauri, uye madzimambo achabva pauri.
Mɛma wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso. Wɔbɛyɛ amanaman bebree na ahemfo nso afiri 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 wʼasefoɔ ne awoɔ ntoatoasoɔ a ɛbɛba no ntam. Na mɛyɛ wo ne wʼasefoɔ Onyankopɔn.
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 ɛnnɛ wote so sɛ ɔhɔhoɔ no nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefoɔ a wɔbɛba akyire no nyinaa. Ɛbɛyɛ asase a ɛyɛ wʼagyapadeɛ afebɔɔ. Na mɛyɛ wɔn Onyankopɔn.”
9 Ipapo Mwari akati kuna Abhurahama, “Kana uriwe, unofanira kuchengeta sungano yangu, iwe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera kumarudzi achauya.
Afei, Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ Abraham sɛ, “Wo deɛ, ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne wʼasefoɔ ne wʼasefoɔ a wɔbɛba akyire no di mʼapam no so.
10 Iyi ndiyo sungano yangu newe nezvizvarwa zvako zvinokutevera, sungano yaunofanira kuchengeta: Munhurume wose ari pakati penyu anofanira kudzingiswa.
Yei ne mʼapam a ɛda me ne wo ntam a ɛsɛ sɛ wo ne wʼasefoɔ ne wʼasefoɔ a wɔbɛba akyire no di so. Ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa ɔbarima biara twetia.
11 Munofanira kudzingiswa, uye ichi chichava chiratidzo chesungano pakati pangu newe.
Ɛsɛ sɛ motwa twetia. Ɛno na ɛbɛyɛ apam a ɛda me ne mo ntam no ho nsɛnkyerɛnneɛ.
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, ɔdi nnawɔtwe pɛ a, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa no twetia. Nkoa a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ wo fie ne ɔnanani biara a woyii sika tɔɔ no firii ɔmamfrani nkyɛn a ɔnyɛ wʼaseni no nso, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa 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 fie oo, sɛ nso, wokarii sika kɔtɔɔ no oo, ɛsɛ sɛ wɔtwa 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 wɔntwaa no twetia no afiri ne nkurɔfoɔ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, saa onipa no anni mʼapam no so.”
15 Mwari akatiwo kuna Abhurahama, “Kana ari Sarai mukadzi wako, hauchazomutizve Sarai; zita rake richanzi Sara.
Onyankopɔn sane ka kyerɛɛ Abraham sɛ, “Ɛfa wo yere Sarai ho nso, ɛfiri ɛnnɛ 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.”
Mɛhyira no, na mɛma no awo ɔbabarima ama wo. Mɛhyira no ma wabɛyɛ aman nyinaa maame. Nʼasefoɔ mu na amanaman mu ahemfo bɛfiri.”
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 butuu fam bio. Ɔsere bisaa ne ho sɛ, “Ɛbɛtumi aba sɛ ɔbarima a wadi mfeɛ ɔha bɛwo ɔba anaa? Sara nso a wadi mfeɛ aduɔkron no nso, ɔbɛtumi awo ɔba anaa?”
18 Uye Abhurahama akati kuna Mwari, “Dai hazvo Ishumaeri agara hake pamaropafadzo enyu!”
Na Abraham ka kyerɛɛ Onyankopɔn sɛ, “Ao, Onyankopɔn ɛnneɛ, 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 kaa sɛ, “Mmom, wo yere Sara bɛwo ɔbabarima ama wo, na wobɛto no edin Isak, a aseɛ ne Sereɛ. Me ne no bɛyɛ daapem apam a ɛbɛtena hɔ ama nʼasefoɔ a wɔbɛba akyire 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 wokaeɛ no nso, mate. Mɛhyira no ama nʼase adɔre bebree. Ɔbɛyɛ aberempɔn dumienu agya. Na mɛma no ayɛ ɔman kɛseɛ.
21 Asi ndichasimbisa sungano yangu naIsaka, uyo achaberekerwa iwe naSara nenguva ino gore rinouya.”
Nanso, me ne Isak a Sara bɛwo no, afe sɛsɛɛ no, na ɛbɛyɛ mʼapam no.”
22 Akati apedza kutaura naAbhurahama, Mwari akakwira kumusoro achibva paari.
Onyankopɔn kasa kyerɛɛ Abraham wieeɛ no, ɔgyaa no hɔ kɔeɛ.
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 ɛda no ara, Abraham faa ne babarima Ismael ne mmarima a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ ne fie ne mmarima a wɔtɔɔ wɔn firii ananafoɔ nkyɛn, twitwaa wɔn nyinaa twetia, sɛdeɛ Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no no.
24 Abhurahama akanga ava namakore makumi mapfumbamwe namapfumbamwe okuberekwa paakadzingiswa,
Wɔtwaa Abraham twetia no, na wadi mfeɛ aduɔkron nkron.
25 uye Ishumaeri mwanakomana wake akanga ava namakore gumi namatatu okuberekwa;
Ne babarima Ismael nso, wɔtwaa no twetia no, na wadi mfeɛ dumiɛnsa.
26 Abhurahama naIshumaeri mwanakomana wake vakadzingiswa vose zuva rimwe chete iroro.
Saa ɛda no ara, na wɔtwaa 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 fie, wɔn a wɔwoo wɔn wɔ Abraham fie ne ɔbarima biara a wɔtɔɔ no firii ɔnanani bi nkyɛn no, wɔtwitwaa wɔn nyinaa twetia, kaa Abraham ho.
