uSara wafela eKiriyati ka-Arbha
1Ke kaloku uSara ebeminyaka ilikhulu elinamanci mabini anesixhenxe; Yiyo le iminyaka yokudla ubomi kukaSara. 2Wafa ke uSara eKiriyati-arbha; eHebron, ezweni lakwaKanan, waya uAbraham kumlilela uSara, wamlilela. 3Wema uAbraham ngakumfi wakhe, wathetha koonyana bakaHeti, wathi, 4Ndingumphambukeli nondwendwe phakathi kwenu; ndinike ingcwaba nawe, ndingcwabe umfikazi phambi kobuso bam. 5Bamphendula uAbraham oonyana bakaHeti, bathi kuye: 6Sive, nkosi yam, wena uyinkosana eyomeleleyo phakathi kwethu; ngcwaba umfi wakho emangcwabeni ethu anyuliweyo; akukho bani kuthi uya kulivala ingcwaba lakho, ukuba akumngcwabi umfikazi lowo. 7Wesuka uAbraham, wawa ngobuso bakhe phambi kwabantu belizwe elo, phambi koonyana bakaHeti. 8Wathetha kubo, wathi, Ukuba nifuna ukuba ndimngcwabe umfikazi phambi kobuso bam; yiva, undixelele ilizwi elilungileyo ngoEfron, unyana kaTsohare. 9Andinike umqolomba waseMagpela, lowo anawo, ekupheleni kwentsimi yakhe; ngokuba nithe nandinika, yoba bubutyebi bengcwaba phakathi kwenu, njengoko inokulingana. 10uEfron wahlala phakathi koonyana bakaHeti; uEfron umHeti wamphendula uAbraham, apho babephulaphule oonyana bakaHeti, nabo bonke abangena ngesango lomzi wakhe, wathi, 11Hayi, nkosi, ndiphulaphule; Intsimi leyo ndikunika yona, nomqolomba okuyo ndikunika; ndiyakunika phambi koonyana babantu bakowethu; ngcwaba umfikazi lowo. 12Waqubuda uAbraham phambi kwabantu belo zwe. 13Wathetha kuEfron, bephulaphule abemi belo zwe, wathi, Ukuba uyapha, phulaphula; ndiya kukunika imali ngelizwe; yithabathe kum, ndingcwabe umfikazi khona. 14uEfron wamphendula uAbraham, wathi kuye: 15Nkosi yam, ndiphulaphule. Umhlaba uthengwa ngeeshekele zesilivere ezimakhulu mane; yintoni phakathi kwam nawe? wandule ukungcwaba umfikazi lowo. 16uAbraham wamphulaphula uEfron; uAbraham wayilinganisa isilivere leyo kuEfron, abeyibeke ezindlebeni zoonyana bakaHeti, yangamakhulu amané eeshekele zesilivere, kuEfron, abeyibeke ezindlebeni zoonyana bakaHeti. 17Yalityalwa intsimi kaEfron eMagpela phambi koMamre, nomqolomba lowo, yonke imithi ngeenxa zonke. 18Kuba uAbraham wayesisityebi phambi koonyana bakaHeti, phambi kwabo bonke abangena ngesango lesixeko sakowabo. 19Emva koko uAbraham wamngcwaba uSara umkakhe emqolombeni osentsimini yaseMakapela phambi kowakwaMamre; nguHebron ke lowo, ezweni lakwaKanan. 20Intsimi yomyezo lowo, nomqolomba okuyo, ngoonyana bakaHeti, bawunika uAbraham, ukuba abe yindawo yakhe yokungcwaba.
