3 Yoksan woo Seba ne Dedan. Dedan asefoɔ ne Asurfoɔ, Letusfoɔ ne Leumfoɔ.
UJokishani wazala uShebha loDedani; isizukulwane sikaDedani saba ngama-Ashuri, amaLethushi lamaLehumi.
4 Midian woo Efa, Efer, Henok, Abida ne Eldaa. Yeinom nyinaa yɛ Ketura asefoɔ.

5 Abraham de nʼagyapadeɛ nyinaa maa Isak.
Konke u-Abhrahama ayelakho wakutshiyela u-Isaka.
6 Nanso, ɛberɛ a ɔte ase no, ɔmaa ne mpena mma akyɛdeɛ, na ɔyii wɔn firii ne babarima Isak nkyɛn, ma wɔkɔɔ apueeɛ fam asase bi so.
Kodwa esaphila wanika amadodana akhe awazala labafazi bakhe beceleni izipho, wabasusa eduze kwendodana yakhe u-Isaka baya elizweni lasempumalanga.
7 Abraham nkwanna nyinaa kɔsii mfeɛ ɔha aduɔson enum.
U-Abhrahama waphila okweminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu.
8 Abraham nyini bɔɔ akɔkoraa posoposo ansa na ɔrewu akɔka ne mpanimfoɔ ho.

9 Ne mmammarima Isak ne Ismael siee no wɔ Makpela boda a ɛwɔ Efron no mu. Na ɛhɔ yɛ Hetini Sohar babarima no afuo a ɛwɔ Mamrɛ apueeɛ fam.
Amadodana akhe u-Isaka lo-Ishumayeli bamngcwaba ebhalwini lwaseMakhaphela eduze leMamure, esiqintini sika-Efroni indodana kaZohari umHithi,
10 Yei ne asase a Abraham tɔ firii Hetifoɔ nkyɛn no. Ɛhɔ na wɔsiee Abraham ne ne yere Sara.
isiqinti leso u-Abhrahama asithenga kumaHithi. Khonapho u-Abhrahama wangcwatshwa lomkakhe uSara.
11 Abraham wuo akyiri no, Onyankopɔn hyiraa ne ba Isak a na saa ɛberɛ no ɔte Beer-Lahai-Roi abura no ho no.
Ngemva kokuba esefile u-Abhrahama uNkulunkulu wayibusisa indodana yakhe u-Isaka, owayehlala eBheri-Lahayi-Royi.
12 Yei ne Abraham babarima Ismael a Sara afenaa Hagar a ɔyɛ Misraimni no woo no maa Abraham no asefoɔ ho asɛm.
Lo ngumlando wendodana ka-Abhrahama u-Ishumayeli, incekukazi kaSara uHagari eyamzalela u-Abhrahama.
13 Wɔn a wɔdidi so yi yɛ Ismael mmammarima a wɔabobɔ wɔn edin mpanin mu no. Na Nebaiot yɛ Ismael abakan. Wɔn a wɔdidi so yi nso yɛ Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam,
La ngamabizo abantwana baka-Ishumayeli behlelwe ngokwelamana kwabo: uNebhayothi izibulo lika-Ishumayeli, uKhedari, u-Adibheli, loMibhisamu,
14 Misma, Duma, Masa,
uMishima, uDuma, uMasa,
15 Hadad, Tema, Yetur, Nafis ne Kedema.
uHadadi, uThema, uJethuri, uNafishi kanye loKhedema.
16 Saa edin a wɔabobɔ yi yɛ Ismael mmammarima no. Saa edin yi na ɛdeda mmusuakuo dumienu ne wɔn atenaeɛ so.
La ayengamadodana ka-Ishumayeli, njalo la ngamabizo ababusi bezizwana ezilitshumi lambili kulandela ukuhlaliswa kwazo lemizi yawo.
17 Ismael dii mfirinhyia ɔha aduasa nson ansa na ɔrewu. Ɔwuiɛ ma wɔsiee no wɔ ne nkurɔfoɔ mu.
U-Ishumayeli waphila okweminyaka elikhulu lamatshumi amathathu lesikhombisa. Waphefumula okokucina wafa, wembelwa labakibo.
18 Ismael asefoɔ yi tenatenaa nsase a ɛfiri Hawila kɔsi Sur a ɛbɛn Misraim pɛɛ wɔ Asiria ntenesoɔ. Daa na akokoakoko wɔ mmusuakuo yi ntam.
Izizukulwane zakhe zakhela emangweni osuka eHavila kusiya eShuri, eduzane lomngcele waseGibhithe, nxa uqonda e-Asiriya. Njalo baphila belenzondo labafowabo bonke.
19 Abraham babarima Isak ne nʼasefoɔ ho asɛm nie. Abraham woo Isak.
Lo ngumlando wendodana ka-Abhrahama u-Isaka. U-Abhrahama wazala u-Isaka,
20 Isak dii mfirinhyia aduanan no, ɔwaree Rebeka a ɔyɛ Aramni Betuel a ɔfiri Paddan-Aram no babaa. Rebeka yɛ Aramni Laban nuabaa.
u-Isaka wathi eseleminyaka engamatshumi amane obudala wathatha uRabheka indodakazi kaBhethuweli umʼAramu wasePhadani Aramu njalo engudadewabo kaLabhani umʼAramu.
21 Isak waree Rebeka mfeɛ bebree a na wɔnwo. Enti, Isak bɔɔ Awurade mpaeɛ, srɛɛ ɔba maa ne yere. Akyire yi, Awurade tiee ne mpaeɛbɔ, maa ne yere Rebeka nyinsɛneeɛ.
U-Isaka wakhuleka kuThixo ekhulekela umkakhe ngoba wayeyinyumba. UThixo wawuphendula umkhuleko wakhe, umkakhe uRabheka wazithwala.
22 Ɛberɛ a Rebeka nyinsɛneeɛ no, ɛtɔ da a, na mmɔfra no di apereapereɛ wɔ ne yafunu mu. Sɛ ɛba saa a, ɔbisa ne ho sɛ, “Ɛdeɛn na ɛreyɛ me yi?” Afei, ɔbɔɔ mpaeɛ bisaa Awurade nkyɛn asekyerɛ.
Abantwana bafuqana phakathi kwakhe, wathi, “Kungani lokhu kusenzakala kimi?” Ngakho wasehamba wayabuza kuThixo.
23 Awurade buaa no sɛ, “Aman mmienu na wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu. Wɔbɛtete nnipa baanu a wɔwɔ wo yafunu mu no mu. Mmɔfra baanu no, ɔbaako asefoɔ bɛyɛ ahoɔdenfoɔ asene ne nua a ɔka ne ho no asefoɔ. Na ɔpanin no bɛsom akumaa no.”
UThixo wathi kuye, “Izizwe ezimbili zisesiswini sakho, njalo abantu ababili phakathi kwakho bazakwehlukaniswa; omunye uzakuba lamandla kulomunye, kuthi omdala uzakhonza omncinyane.”
24 Rebeka awoɔ duruu so no, ɔwoo ntaten.
Kwathi isikhathi sakhe sokubeletha sesifikile, kwakulamaphahla angabafana esiswini sakhe.
25 Na deɛ ɔdi ɛkan baeɛ no yɛ kɔkɔɔ a ne ho nwi yɛ kuhaa te sɛ deɛ ɔhyɛ nwi atadeɛ. Enti, wɔtoo no edin Esau.
Owabona ilanga kuqala wayebomvu, umzimba wakhe wonke ulihwanqa njengengubo yoboya; yikho bamutha bathi ngu-Esawu.
26 Yei akyiri no, ne nua no baeɛ. Na ne nsa kura Esau nantin; enti wɔtoo ne din Yakob. Rebeka woo wɔn no, na Isak adi mfeɛ aduosia.
Ngemva kwalokhu, umfowabo walandela, isandla sakhe sibambe isithende sika-Esawu; ngakho wathiwa nguJakhobe. U-Isaka wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisithupha ngesikhathi uRabheka ebazala.
27 Mmɔfra no nyiniiɛ no, Esau bɛyɛɛ ɔbɔmmɔfoɔ a, ɔto a, ɔmfom. Na ɔyɛ ha fa wiram baabiara. Yakob nso bɛyɛɛ obi a ɔyɛ komm a ɔmpɛ ne ho asɛm. Na ɛberɛ biara, ɔpɛ sɛ ɔtena fie.
Bakhula abafana, u-Esawu waba ngumzingeli omkhulu, indoda yegangeni, kodwa uJakhobe wayeyindoda ethuleyo, engasuki ngekhaya emathenteni.
28 Na Isak pɛ Esau asɛm yie, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɛberɛ biara ɔkɔyɛ ha de hanam a Isak pɛ ba fie. Nanso, na Rebeka deɛ, ɔpɛ Yakob asɛm.
U-Isaka owayethanda inyama yenyamazana wayethanda u-Esawu, kodwa uRabheka wayethanda uJakhobe.
29 Ɛda bi a Esau firi wiram baeɛ a na ɛkɔm de no yie no, ɔbɛtoo sɛ ne nua kumaa Yakob nso renoa aduane bi a ani yɛ kɔkɔɔ na ɛyɛ akɔnnɔ nso.
Ngesinye isikhathi uJakhobe wayepheka inyama, u-Esawu wafika evela egangeni elambile.
30 Ɔka kyerɛɛ Yakob sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, ma me wʼaduane a woanoa yi bi nni!” (Ɛno enti na wɔfrɛ Esau sɛ Edom, a asekyerɛ ne ade kɔkɔɔ).
Wathi kuJakhobe, “Phangisa, akungiphe ukudla kwakho lokho osukukhanzinge kwaba bomvana! Sengifile ngendlala!” (Yikho wabizwa ngokuthi ngu-Edomi.)
31 Yakob buaa sɛ, “Tɔn wo panin no ma me ansa.”
UJakhobe waphendula wathi, “Qala ungithengisele ubuzibulo bakho.”
32 Esau kaa sɛ, “Ɔkɔm rekum me, na mede panin reyɛ ɛdeɛn?”
U-Esawu wathi, “Khangela, sengisifa. Bungisiza ngani ubuzibulo lobo?”
33 Yakob buaa Esau sɛ, “Mate, ka ntam kyerɛ me wɔ Onyankopɔn anim sɛ, panin no yɛ me dea.” Esau kaa ntam no de tɔn ne panin no maa ne nua kumaa Yakob.
Kodwa uJakhobe wathi, “Qala ufunge kimi.” Yikho wasefunga isifungo kuye, ethengisa ubuzibulo bakhe kuJakhobe.
34 Enti, Yakob maa Esau aduane no bi, ma ɔdiiɛ. Ɔnom nsuo guu so, sɔre kɔɔ ne kwan. Yei ne ɛkwan a Esau faa so tɔn ne panin no.
Ngakho uJakhobe wasesipha u-Esawu isinkwa lokudla kwendumba eziphekwa ziluhlaza. Wadla, wanatha, wasukuma wahamba. Ngaleyondlela u-Esawu wabeyisa ubuzibulo bakhe.
