3 Abraham sɔree anɔpatutuutu hyehyɛɛ nʼafurum. Ɔfaa ne nkoa no mu baanu ne ne ba Isak kaa ne ho. Otwitwaa ogya a ɛbɛso ɔhyew afɔre no bɔ no, osii mu kɔɔ faako a Onyankopɔn kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnkɔ no.
4 Ne nnansa so no, Abraham too nʼani huu sɛ baabi a ɔrekɔ no wɔ akyirikyiri.
5 Na Abraham ka kyerɛɛ ne nkoa no se, “Mo ne afurum no ntwɛn wɔ ha, na me ne abarimaa no nkɔ anim kakra nkɔsom. Sɛ yɛsom wie a, yɛbɛsan aba.”
6 Abraham faa nnyina a wɔde rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no de soaa ne ba Isak. Na ɔno nso faa ogya ne sekan kurae. Bere a wɔrekɔ no,
7 Isak frɛɛ nʼagya Abraham se, “Agya!” Na Abraham buae se, “Me ba, asɛm bɛn?” Isak bisaa no se, “Ogya ne nnyina no ni, na oguamma a yɛde no rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no wɔ he?”
8 Abraham buae se, “Onyankopɔn no ankasa bɛma yɛn afɔre guan no a yɛde rekɔbɔ ɔhyew afɔre no.” Na wɔn baanu no toaa so kɔe.
