UGenesisi 12
1 INkosi yasisithi kuAbrama: Suka wena elizweni lakini lezihlotsheni zakho lemzini kayihlo, uye elizweni engizakutshengisa lona.
Leleꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Abram nae, “Abram! Lao hela bobꞌonggi ma, ama ma ume na, ma kambo ma. Misiꞌ mamanaꞌ esa, dei fo Au utudꞌu neu nggo.
2 Ngizakwenza-ke ube yisizwe esikhulu, ngikubusise, ngenze ibizo lakho libe likhulu, njalo ube yisibusiso.
Dei fo Au fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu nggo. Tititi-nonosi mara, boe ramaheta, dadꞌi leo manaseliꞌ losa atahori ra rahine nara ma. Ma ho dadꞌi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ soaꞌ neu atahori feaꞌ.
3 Njalo ngizababusisa abakubusisayo, lokuqalekisayo ngimqalekise; lakuwe kuzabusiswa zonke insapho zomhlaba.
Dei fo Au fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu atahori mana fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu nggo. Te Au huku-doki atahori mana fee huku-dokiꞌ neu nggo. Rena malolole! Dei fo basa leo sia raefafoꞌ hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ laoꞌ mia nggo.”
4 UAbrama wasehamba njengoba iNkosi ikhulumile kuye, loLothi wahamba laye. Njalo uAbrama wayeleminyaka engamatshumi ayisikhombisa lanhlanu ekusukeni kwakhe eHarani.
Abram too hitu nulu lima ma, ana no sao na Sarai, ma odꞌi na anan Lot, ma basa hata-heto na, no basa atahori mana ue-tao nara fo ana hambu mia kambo Haran. Basa ma, ara lao hela Haran, de risiꞌ mamanaꞌ fo LAMATUALAIN nafadꞌe neu e. Ara laoꞌ rakandoo, losa mamanaꞌ esa, naran Kanaꞌan.
5 UAbrama wasethatha uSarayi umkakhe, loLothi indodana yomfowabo, lempahla yabo yonke ababeyiqoqile, lemiphefumulo ababeyizuzile eHarani; basebesuka ukuya elizweni leKhanani; bafika elizweni leKhanani.
6 UAbrama wasedabula ilizwe waze wafika endaweni yeShekema, esihlahleni se-okhi seMore. LamaKhanani ayekhona elizweni ngalesosikhathi.
Losa naa, Abram lao rereoꞌ rae naa, losa deka no kamboꞌ esa, naran Sikem. De ara leo raꞌatataaꞌ deka no hau huu ineꞌ esa sia More. Leleꞌ naa, atahori Kanaꞌan ra feꞌe leo sia naa.
7 INkosi yasibonakala kuAbrama, yathi: Kunzalo yakho ngizanika lelilizwe. Waseyakhela lapho iNkosi ilathi eyayibonakale kuye.
LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Aon neu Abram sia naa. Ana nae, “Au fee nusaꞌ ia neu tititi-nonosi ma.” Basa ma Abram lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ soaꞌ neu LAMATUALAIN, mana natudꞌu Aon sia naa.
8 Waseqhubeka esuka lapho waya entabeni empumalanga yeBhetheli, wamisa ithente lakhe, iBhetheli isentshonalanga leAyi empumalanga. Waseyakhela lapho iNkosi ilathi, wabiza ibizo leNkosi.
Basa ma, Abram se lali risiꞌ leteꞌ sia ona, de leo raꞌatataaꞌ sia kambo Betel no kambo Ai taladꞌa nara. Ana o lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ esa, de beꞌutee neu LAMATUALAIN sia naa.
9 UAbrama wasesuka wahamba eqhubeka esiya eningizimu.
Basa naa ma, ana lali-laliꞌ mamanaꞌ, losa rae Negeb sia Kanaꞌan seriꞌ ona.
10 Kwasekusiba khona indlala elizweni. UAbrama wasesehlela ngaseGibhithe ukuthi ahlale khona njengowezizwe, ngoba indlala yayinzima elizweni.
Faiꞌ sa boe, ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ mia rae Kanaꞌan. Naa de Abram se lao rakandoo risiꞌ seriꞌ ona, losa nusa Masir. Ara leo raꞌatataaꞌ sia naa.
11 Kwasekusithi esesondela ukungena eGibhithe wathi kuSarayi umkakhe: Khangela-ke, ngiyazi ukuthi ungowesifazana omuhle obukekayo.
Ara rae risiꞌ nusa Masir rala reu ma, nafadꞌe sao na Sarai nae, “Sarai. Ho ia, meulau ma seli.
12 Njalo kuzakuthi lapho amaGibhithe ekubona, azakuthi: Lo ngumkakhe; abesengibulala, kodwa wena akugcine uphila.
Te mete ma atahori Masir ra rita ho meulau ma ia, ara tao risa au, huu au ia, ho sao ma. No taꞌo naa, ara sao rala nggo.
13 Ake uthi ungudadewethu, ukuze kube kuhle kimi ngenxa yakho, lomphefumulo wami uphile ngenxa yakho.
De malole lenaꞌ, mufadꞌe se mae, au ia, ho aꞌa ma. Naa fo, ara nda tati-mbau risa au sa, te ara maloleꞌ ro au, huu ho.”
14 Kwasekusithi lapho uAbrama esefikile eGibhithe, amaGibhithe ambona owesifazana, ukuthi muhle kakhulu.
De Abram se losa Masir ma, atahori ra rita inaꞌ a meulau na seli.
15 Iziphathamandla zikaFaro lazo zambona, zambabaza phambi kukaFaro. Owesifazana waselethwa endlini kaFaro.
Pagau mane Masir ra rita e ma, ara koa inaꞌ meulau na mia maneꞌ a mata na. Basa ma, ara rendi e nisiꞌ maneꞌ a ume na.
16 Wasemphatha kuhle uAbrama ngenxa yakhe; njalo waba lezimvu lezinkabi labobabhemi lezinceku lezincekukazi labobabhemikazi lamakamela.
De maneꞌ a malolole no Abram, huu Sarai. Ana fee mudꞌaꞌ Abram bibꞌi lombo, hiek, sapi, keledei, no banda onta. Ana o fee ate touꞌ ma inaꞌ boe.
17 Kodwa iNkosi yamhlupha uFaro ngezinhlupheko ezinkulu, lendlu yakhe, ngendaba kaSarayi umkaAbrama.
Te huu maneꞌ a haꞌi nala atahori sao na nisiꞌ ume na, naa de LAMATUALAIN huku-doki mataꞌ-mataꞌ neu e no atahori nara.
18 UFaro wasembiza uAbrama, wathi: Kuyini lokhu okwenze kimi? Kungani ungangitshelanga ukuthi ungumkakho?
Dei de maneꞌ a noꞌe Abram ma natane nae, “Abram! Ho tao au taꞌo bee ia? Saa de nda mufadꞌe mae, inaꞌ ia, sao ma sa!?
19 Utsholoni ukuthi ungudadewenu, ngize ngimthathe ukuba ngumkami? Ngakho khangela-ke umkakho; mthathe uhambe.
Te mae odꞌi ma! Helaꞌ a mbei na, au sao ala e! Sie, haꞌi mendi e! Dinggoꞌ hela mata ngga!”
20 UFaro waselaya amadoda ngaye; asemmukisa lomkakhe lakho konke ayelakho.
Basa ma maneꞌ a parenda pagau nara, fo oi hendi Abram, no sao na, ma sudꞌiꞌ a saa nara mia nusaꞌ naa.
