2 Natenepa, Sarai apanga Abhramu: “Ndaphata miyendo, ndibvesere! Yahova nee anditawirisa kuti ndibale ana. Ndaphata miyendo, gona* na bitcu wanga. Panango ndinakwanisa kukhala na ana kubulukira mwa iye.”+ Penepo Abhramu abvera pidalonga Sarai.
3 Pidakhala Abhramu pyaka khumi ku dziko ya Kanani, Sarai nkazace Abhramu akwata Agari bitcu wace wa ku Ejitu, mbampereka kuna Abhramu mamunace, toera akhale nkazace.
4 Natenepa, iye apita mʼmabonde na Agari, penepo Agari akhala na mimba. Pidadzindikira iye kuti ali na mimba, atoma kupwaza Sarai mbuyace.
5 Penepo Sarai apanga Abhramu: “Ine ndiri kuona nyatwa thangwi ya iwe. Ine ndapereka bitcu wanga kuna iwe,* mbwenye pidadzindikira iye kuti ali na mimba, iye atoma kundipwaza. Yahova mbakhale ntongi pakati pa iwe na ine!”
6 Abhramu apanga Sarai: “Iye ali mʼmanja mwako, thangwi iye ndi bitcu wako, cita kuna iye pyonsene pinanyerezera iwe kuti ndi pyadidi.” Penepo Sarai atoma kuthabusa* Agari, natenepa iye athawa.
7 Mukupita kwa ndzidzi, anju wa Yahova anʼgumana nʼthando, pa ncera wa madzi panjira inaenda ku Suri.+
8 Anju ambvundza: “Agari, ntumiki wa Sarai, wabuluka kupi, pontho uli kuenda kupi?” Penepo iye atawira: “Ndiri kuthawa mbuyanga Sarai.”
9 Anju wa Yahova ampanga: “Bwerera kuna mbuyako, mbucepeseka pamaso pace.”*
10 Penepo anju wa Yahova alonga pontho: “Ndinadzanjipisa kakamwe dzindza* yako, mbinjipa kakamwe kwakuti nkhabe kudzalengeseka.”+
11 Anju wa Yahova athimiza: “Ona, iwe uli na mimba, pontho unadzabala mwana wamamuna, usafunika kumpasa dzina ya Ijimaeli,* thangwi Yahova abva kulira kwako.*
12 Iye anadzakhala ninga buru ya ntsanga.* Djanja yace inadzathimbana na anthu onsene, djanja ya anthu onsene inadzathimbana na iye, pontho iye anadzamanga misasa yace patsogolo pa abale ace.”*
13 Penepo iye asimba* dzina ya Yahova akhalonga na iye. Agari alonga: “Imwe ndimwe Mulungu wakuti asaona,”*+ thangwi Agari akhadalonga: “Kodi pano ine ndaonadi ule wakuti asandiona?”
14 Na thangwi ineyi, ncera unoyu wathulwa Bheeri-Laai-Roi.* (Usagumanika pakati pa Kadhesi na Bheredhi.)
15 Mukupita kwa ndzidzi, Agari abalira Abhramu mwana wamamuna, mwana unoyu adabala Agari, Abhramu anʼthula Ijimaeli.+
16 Mu ndzidzi udabala Agari Ijimaeli, Abhramu akhali na pyaka 86 pyakubalwa.
