uHagari incekukazi no-Ishmayeli indodana ka-Abrama
1USarayi umka-Abrama wayengamzaleli mntwana, wayenencekukazi yaseGibithe, igama layo lalinguHagari.
2USarayi wathi ku-Abrama: “Bheka, uJehova ungivalile ukuba ngizale; Ngena encekukazini yami; mhlawumbe ngingathola abantwana naye. U-Abrama walilalela izwi likaSarayi.
3USarayi umka-Abrama wathatha uHagari incekukazi yakhe umGibhithe, emva kokuba u-Abrama esehlale iminyaka eyishumi ezweni laseKhanani, wamnika u-Abrama indoda yakhe ukuba abe ngumkakhe.
4Wangena kuHagari, wakhulelwa; lapho ebona ukuthi ukhulelwe, inkosikazi yakhe yadeleleka emehlweni akhe.
5USarayi wasesithi kuAbrama: Ububi bami buphezu kwakho; nginikele incekukazi yami esifubeni sakho; lapho ebona ukuthi ukhulelwe, ngadeleleka emehlweni akhe; uJehova makahlulele phakathi kwami nawe.
6Kepha u-Abrama wathi kuSarayi: “Bheka, incekukazi yakho isesandleni sakho; yenza kuye ngokuthanda kwakho. Kwathi lapho uSarayi emphatha kabi, wabaleka ebusweni bakhe.
7Ingelosi kaJehova yamfumana ngasemthonjeni wamanzi ehlane ngasemthonjeni osendleleni eya eSuri.
8Wathi: “Hagari, incekukazi kaSarayi, uvelaphi na?” futhi uzoyaphi? Wathi: “Ngibalekela ubuso benkosikazi yami uSarayi.”
9Ingelosi kaJehova yathi kuye: “Buyela enkosikazini yakho, uzithobe esandleni sayo.
10Ingilosi yeNkosi yasisithi kuye: Ngizakwandisa kakhulu inzalo yakho, ukuze ingabalwa ngobunengi.
11Ingelosi kaJehova yathi kuye: “Bheka, ukhulelwe, futhi uzozala indodana, uyiqambe ngokuthi u-Ishmayeli; ngokuba uJehova uzwile ukuhlupheka kwakho.
12Uyakuba ngumuntu wasendle; isandla sakhe siyakuba phezu kwawo wonke umuntu, nesandla sawo wonke sibe phezu kwakhe; futhi uyakuhlala phambi kwabo bonke abafowabo.
13Wasebiza ibizo leN kosi eyayikhuluma laye wathi: UNkulunkulu wakho uyangibona, ngoba wathi: Kambe ngimbonile yini lapha ongibonayo?
14Ngalokho umthombo wabizwa ngokuthi iBeri Lahayiroyi; bheka, liphakathi kweKadeshi neBerede.
15UHagari wamzalela u-Abrama indodana;
16U-Abrama wayeneminyaka engamashumi ayisishiyagalombili nesithupha mhla uHagari emzalela u-Abrama u-Ishmayeli.
