< 1 Mose 22 >
1 Yeinom nyinaa akyiri, Onyankopɔn sɔɔ Abraham hwɛeɛ. Ɔfrɛɛ Abraham sɛ, “Abraham!” Abraham buaa sɛ, “Me nie!”
Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto uNkulunkulu wamlinga uAbrahama, wathi kuye: Abrahama! Wathi: Khangela ngilapha.
2 Onyankopɔn ka kyerɛɛ no sɛ, “Fa wo ba, wo ba korɔ Isak a wodɔ no no kɔ Moria asase so, na fa no kɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ mmepɔ a ɛwɔ hɔ no mu baako a mɛkyerɛ wo no so.”
Wasesithi: Thatha-ke indodana yakho, eyodwa eyakho, oyithandayo, uIsaka, uye elizweni leMoriya; uyinikele khona ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa phezu kwenye yezintaba engizakutshela yona.
3 Abraham sɔree anɔpatutuutu hyehyɛɛ nʼafunumu. Ɔfaa ne nkoa no mu baanu ne ne ba Isak kaa ne ho. Ɔtwitwaa egya a ɛbɛso ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no bɔ no, ɔsiim kɔɔ baabi a Onyankopɔn kyerɛɛ no sɛ ɔnkɔ no.
UAbrahama wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, wabophela isihlalo kubabhemi wakhe, wathatha kanye laye ababili kumajaha akhe, loIsaka indodana yakhe. Wabanda inkuni zomnikelo wokutshiswa, wasukuma waya endaweni ayemtshele yona uNkulunkulu.
4 Ne nnansa so no, Abraham too nʼani hunuu sɛ baabi a ɔrekɔ no wɔ akyirikyiri.
Kwathi ngosuku lwesithathu uAbrahama waphakamisa amehlo akhe wayibona indawo isekhatshana.
5 Na Abraham ka kyerɛɛ ne nkoa no sɛ, “Mo ne afunumu no ntwɛn ha, na me ne abarimaa no nkɔ animu kakra, nkɔsom. Sɛ yɛsom wie a, yɛbɛsane aba.”
UAbrahama wasesithi emajaheni akhe: Salani lina lapha lobabhemi, mina lomfana sisaya laphayana njalo sizakhonza, sibuye kini futhi.
6 Abraham faa anyina a wɔde rekɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no de soaa ne ba Isak. Ɛnna ɔno nso faa egya ne sekammoa kuraeɛ. Ɛberɛ a wɔrekɔ no,
UAbrahama wasethatha inkuni zomnikelo wokutshiswa, wazethesa uIsaka indodana yakhe; wathatha esandleni sakhe umlilo lengqamu; basebehamba bobabili ndawonye.
7 Isak frɛɛ nʼagya Abraham sɛ, “Agya!” Ɛnna Abraham buaa sɛ, “Me ba, asɛm bɛn?” Isak bisaa no sɛ, “Egya ne anyina no nie, na odwammaa a yɛde no rekɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no wɔ he?”
UIsaka wasekhuluma kuAbrahama uyise wathi: Baba! Wasesithi: Khangela ngilapha, mntanami. Wasesithi: Khangela, umlilo lenkuni; kodwa lingaphi iwundlu lomnikelo wokutshiswa?
8 Abraham buaa sɛ, “Onyankopɔn no ankasa bɛma yɛn afɔredwan a yɛde rekɔbɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ no.” Afei, wɔn baanu no toaa so kɔeɛ.
UAbrahama wasesithi: UNkulunkulu uzazibonela yena iwundlu lomnikelo wokutshiswa, ndodana yami. Bahamba-ke bobabili ndawonye.
9 Wɔbɛduruu baabi a Onyankopɔn kyerɛɛ no no, Abraham sii afɔrebukyia wɔ hɔ, hyehyɛɛ anyina no wɔ so. Ɔkyekyeree ne ba Isak, de no too anyina no so wɔ afɔrebukyia no so.
Basebefika endaweni uNkulunkulu ayemtshele yona; uAbrahama wasesakha khona ilathi; wabeka kuhle inkuni; esembophile uIsaka indodana yakhe, wambeka elathini phezu kwenkuni.
10 Abraham twee sekammoa no, pagyaa sɛ ɔde rebɛtwa ne ba no mene akum no.
UAbrahama waseselula isandla sakhe, wathatha ingqamu ukuze ayihlabe indodana yakhe.
11 Ɛhɔ ara na Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ frɛɛ no firi soro sɛ, “Abraham! Abraham!” Ɛnna Abraham gyee so sɛ, “Me nie.”
Kwasekumemeza kuye ingilosi yeNkosi isemazulwini yathi: Abrahama, Abrahama! Wathi: Khangela ngilapha.
12 Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no kaa sɛ, “Mfa wo nsa nka abɔfra no. Ɛnyɛ no bɔne biara. Esiane sɛ woamfa wo dɔ ba, wo ba korɔ no ankame me no enti, mahunu sɛ wosuro Onyankopɔn.”
Yasisithi: Ungeluleli isandla sakho emfaneni, ungenzi lutho kuye, ngoba khathesi ngiyazi ukuthi wena uyamesaba uNkulunkulu, lokhu ungayigodlanga indodana yakho eyodwa kimi.
13 Abraham maa nʼani so hunuu sɛ nkyɛkyerɛ bi asɔ odwennini bi mmɛn mu wɔ wira no mu hɔ. Abraham kɔkyeree odwennini no de no bɔɔ ɔhyeɛ afɔdeɛ wɔ afɔrebukyia no so, sii ne ba no ananmu.
UAbrahama wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona, khangela-ke, inqama emuva ibanjiwe esixukwini ngezimpondo zayo. UAbrahama wasehamba wayithatha inqama, wayinikela ibe ngumnikelo wokutshiswa esikhundleni sendodana yakhe.
14 Abraham too beaeɛ no din sɛ Awurade De Bɛma. Ɛbɛsi ɛnnɛ no wɔka sɛ, “wɔde bɛma wɔ Awurade bepɔ no so.”
UAbrahama wasesitha ibizo laleyondawo wathi uJehova-jire, njengoba kutshiwo lalamuhla ukuthi: Entabeni yeNkosi kuzanakekelwa.
15 Awurade ɔbɔfoɔ no frɛɛ Abraham firii soro deɛ ɛtɔ so mmienu kaa sɛ,
Ingilosi yeNkosi yasimemeza uAbrahama ngokwesibili isemazulwini,
16 “Maka me ho ntam sɛ, ɛsiane sɛ woayɛ yei, na woamfa wo ba, wo ba korɔ no ankame me enti,
yathi: Ngizifungile, itsho iNkosi, ukuthi njengoba wenzile le into ungayigodlanga indodana yakho, eyakho eyodwa,
17 hyira na mɛhyira wo na mama wʼase adɔre sɛ ɔsoro nsoromma ne mpoano anwea. Na wʼasefoɔ bɛgye wɔn atamfoɔ nkuropɔn adi so.
qotho ngizakubusisa lokukubusisa, ngiyandise lokuyandisa inzalo yakho njengenkanyezi zamazulu, lanjengetshebetshebe elisekhunjini lolwandle; lenzalo yakho izakuba ngumnikazi wesango lezitha zayo,
18 Wɔnam wʼasefoɔ so na wɔbɛhyira ewiase amanaman nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, woadi mʼasɛm so.”
lenzalweni yakho zonke izizwe zomhlaba zizabusiswa, ngoba ulalele ilizwi lami.
19 Afei, Abraham sane kɔɔ nʼasomfoɔ no nkyɛn ne wɔn siim kɔɔ Beer-Seba kɔtenaa hɔ.
UAbrahama wasebuyela emajaheni akhe; basebesukuma, bahamba ndawonye eBherishebha; uAbrahama wasehlala eBherishebha.
20 Yeinom nyinaa akyiri no, wɔka kyerɛɛ Abraham sɛ, “Milka nso yɛ ɔbaatan a wawo mmammarima ama wo nuabarima Nahor. Wɔn din na ɛdidi so yi:
Kwasekusithi emva kwalezizinto kwabikwa kuAbrahama ukuthi: Khangela, uMilka laye umzalele uNahori umfowenu abantwana,
21 Us yɛ abakan, Us nuabarima Bus na ɔtɔ so mmienu. Deɛ ɔdi so ne Kemuel, a ɔyɛ Aram agya.
uUzi izibulo lakhe, loBuzi umfowabo, loKemuweli uyise kaAramu,
22 Wɔn a wɔaka no ne Kesed, Haso, Pildas, Yidlaf ne Betuel.”
loKesedi, loHazo, loPilidashi, loJidilafi, loBethuweli.
23 Saa Betuel yi na ɔwoo Rebeka. Milka ne Abraham nua Nahor na wɔwowoo saa mmammarima baawɔtwe yi.
UBethuweli wasezala uRebeka; laba abayisificaminwembili uMilka wabazalela uNahori, umfowabo kaAbrahama.
24 Nahor ne ne mpena Rehuma nso wowoo mma baanan a wɔn din de, Teba, Gaham, Tahas ne Maaka.
Lomfazi wakhe omncane obizo lakhe linguRewuma, laye wazala uTeba loGahama loTahashi loMahaka.
