³Ngizakufungisa uJehova, uNkulunkulu wezulu, loNkulunkulu womhlaba, ukuthi kawuyikuthathela indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani engihlala phakathi kwawo.

⁴Kodwa kumelwe uye ezweni lakithi nasemndenini wakithi uyithathele umfazi indodana yami u-Isaka.

⁵Inceku yasisithi kuye: Mhlawumbe owesifazana angethandi ukungilandela ukuya kulelilizwe; ngibuyise indodana yakho ezweni owaphuma kulo na?

⁶U-Abhrahama wasesithi kuye: Qaphela ukuthi ungayibuyiseli khona indodana yami.

⁷UJehova, uNkulunkulu wezulu, owangikhipha endlini kababa nasezweni lokuzalwa kwami, owakhuluma kimi, wafunga kimi, wathi: ‘Ngiyakulinika inzalo yakho leli zwe; kumelwe athumele ingelosi yakhe phambi kwakho, futhi kumelwe uyithathele khona indodana yami umfazi.

¹³Bheka, ngimi ngasemthonjeni; amadodakazi abantu bomuzi aphuma ukuyokha amanzi.

¹⁴Intombazana engizakuthi kuyo: Kakubekwe phansi imbiza yakho ukuze nginathe; athi: Phuza, ngizaphuzisa namakamela akho. Kube nguye ommisele inceku yakho u-Isaka; ngalokho ngiyakwazi ukuthi wenze umusa enkosini yami.

¹⁵Engakaqedi ukukhuluma, kwaphuma uRebeka owazalelwa uBetuweli indodana kaMilka umkaNahori umfowabo ka-Abrahama, enembiza yakhe ehlombe lakhe.

¹⁶Intombazane yayiyinhle kakhulu, iyintombi nto, ingaziwa muntu; wehlela emthonjeni, wagcwalisa imbiza yakhe, wenyuka.

¹⁷Inceku yayisigijima ukuyihlangabeza, yathi: “Ake ngiphuze ingcosana yamanzi embizeni yakho.”

¹⁸Wathi: “Phuza, nkosi yami; washesha wehlisa imbiza yakhe esandleni sakhe, wamphuzisa.

¹⁹Kwathi eseqedile ukuphuza wathi: Ngizakhelela amakamela akho amanzi aze aqede ukuphuza.

²⁰Washesha wathululela imbiza yakhe emkhombeni, wagijima wabuyela emthonjeni ukuyokha, wakhethela onke amakamela akhe.

²¹Indoda eyayimmangazile yathula, ukuze yazi ukuthi iNkosi yayiphumelelisile indlela yakhe noma qha.

²²Kwathi amakamela eseqedile ukuphuza, indoda yathatha icici legolide, inxenye yeshekeli, namasongo amabili ezandleni zayo, amashekeli ayishumi egolide;

²³Uyindodakazi kabani? tshela mina: ikhona yini indawo endlini kayihlo esizolala kuyo?

²⁴Yathi kuye: “Ngiyindodakazi kaBetuweli indodana kaMilka amzalela yona uNahori.”

²⁵Wathi kuye: “Sinotshani obanele, imfuyo nendawo yokulala.”

²⁶Indoda yagebisa ikhanda, yakhuleka eNkosini.

²⁷Wathi: “Makabusiswe uJehova, uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami u-Abrahama, ongayithobisanga inkosi yami ngomusa wayo nokuthembeka kwayo;

²⁸Intombazana yagijima, yabatshela lezizinto ngendlu kanina.

²⁹URebeka wayenomnewabo ogama lakhe lalinguLabani; uLabani wagijima waya endodeni emthonjeni.

³⁰Kwathi lapho ebona icici namasongo ezandleni zikadadewabo, wezwa amazwi kadadewabo uRebeka, ethi: “Yilokhu indoda ekhulume kimi; ukuthi wafika kumuntu; bheka, wayemi ngasemakameleni ngasemthonjeni.

³¹Wathi: “Ngena, obusisiweyo yiNkosi; ume ngani ngaphandle? ngoba mina sengilungisile indlu lendawo yamakamela.

³²Indoda yangena endlini, yakhulula amakamela ayo, yanika amakamela utshani nefolishi namanzi ukuba ageze izinyawo zayo nezinyawo zamadoda ayenayo.

³³Kwabekwa phambi kwakhe ukudla ukuba adle; kepha wathi: “Angiyikudla ngize ngikhulume umyalo wami.” Wathi: “Khuluma.”

³⁴Wathi: “Ngiyinceku ka-Abrahama.”

³⁵UJehova ubusisile kakhulu inkosi yami; wakhula, wamnika izimvu, nezinkomo, nesiliva, negolide, nezinceku, nezincekukazi, namakamela, nezimbongolo.

³⁶USara umkankosi yami wayizalela inkosi yami indodana esemdala, wayinika yona konke enakho.

³⁷Inkosi yami yangifungisa yathi: ‘Ungathatheli indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani engihlala ezweni lawo.

³⁸Kodwa kumelwe uye endlini kababa nasendlini yakithi uyithathele umfazi indodana yami.

³⁹Ngase ngithi enkosini yami: ‘Mhlawumbe owesifazane akayikungilandela;

⁴⁰Yathi kimi: ‘UJehova engihamba phambi kwakhe uyakuthuma ingelosi yakhe nawe, aphumelelise indlela yakho; futhi kumelwe uyithathele indodana yami umfazi emndenini wakithi nasendlini kababa.

⁴¹Khona-ke uyosisusa lesi sifungo sami lapho ufika emndenini wami; futhi uma benganiniki lutho, niyokhululeka esifungweni sami.

⁴²Ngase ngifika emthonjeni namuhla, ngathi: ‘Nkosi, Nkulunkulu wenkosi yami u-Abrahama, uma uyiphumelelisa indlela yami engihamba ngayo;

⁴³Bheka, ngimi ngasemthonjeni; lapho intombi iphuma ukukha amanzi, ngasengisithi kuyo: Ngiphuzise ingcosana yamanzi embizeni yakho;

⁴⁴Wathi kimi: “Phuzani nina nobabili, futhi ngizokudalela namakamela; makube ngumfazi uJehova ammisele indodana yenkosi yami.

⁴⁵Ngingakaqedi ukukhuluma enhliziyweni yami, kwaphuma uRebeka enembiza yakhe ehlombe; wehlela emthonjeni wakha amanzi; ngathi kuye: Ake ngiphuze.

⁴⁶Wayeseshesha wehlisa imbiza yakhe, wathi: “Phuza, ngizakuwaphuzisa namakamela akho; ngalokho ngaphuza, waphuzisa namakamela.

⁴⁷Ngambuza ngathi: Uyindodakazi kabani wena? Wathi: “Indodakazi kaBetuweli indodana kaNahori, amzalela yona uMilka;

⁴⁸Ngakhothamisa ikhanda lami, ngakhuleka kuJehova, ngamdumisa uJehova, uNkulunkulu wenkosi yami u-Abrahama, ongihole endleleni eqondileyo ukuba ngithathele indodana yayo indodakazi yomfowabo wenkosi yami.

⁴⁹Futhi uma manje nithanda ukwenza umusa neqiniso enkosini yami, ngitsheleni; uma kungenjalo, ngitshele; ukuthi ngijike kwesokudla noma kwesobunxele.

⁵⁰Base bephendula oLabani noBetuweli, bathi: “Indaba ivela kuJehova; asinakukhuluma okubi noma okuhle kuwe.

⁵¹Bheka, uRebeka uphambi kwakho, mthathe, uhambe, abe ngumkandodana yenkosi yakho, njengalokho uJehova ekhulumile.

⁵²Kwathi inceku ka-Abrahama isizwile amazwi abo, yakhuleka kuJehova, yakhothamela emhlabathini.

⁵³Inceku yayisikhipha izinto zesiliva nezegolide, nezingubo, yazinika uRebeka; wabanika umnewabo nonina izinto eziyigugu.

⁵⁴Badla, banatha, yena namadoda ayenaye, bahlala ubusuku bonke; basebeqeda ekuseni bathi: Ngiyekeleni ngiye enkosini yami.

⁵⁵Base bethi umnewabo nonina: “Vumela intombazane ihlale nathi izinsuku okungenani eziyishumi; emva kwalokho uzohamba.

⁵⁶Wathi kubo: “Ningangithiyi, lokhu uJehova eyiphumelelisile indlela yami; ngimukise ukuze ngiye enkosini yami.

⁵⁷Bathi: “Sizoyibiza intombazane, siyibuze emlonyeni wayo.”

⁵⁸Basebembiza uRebeka, bathi kuye: Uyathanda yini ukuhamba lalumuntu? Wathi: “Ngiyakuhamba.”

⁵⁹Base bemukisa udadewabo uRebeka, nomzanyana wakhe, nenceku ka-Abrahama, namadoda ayo.

⁶⁰Basebembusisa uRebeka, bathi kuye: Wena ungudadewethu, ube ngunina wezinkulungwane zezigidi, inzalo yakho idle ilifa lesango lalabo abayizondayo.

⁶¹URebeka wasukuma nezintombi zakhe, bagibela amakamela, balandela indoda; inceku yamthatha uRebeka yahamba.

⁶²U-Isaka waphuma endleleni eya emthonjeni waseLahayiyiroyi; ngoba wayehlala eningizimu.

⁶³U-Isaka waphuma sekuhlwile ukuyozindla ensimini; waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona, amakamela ayesiza.

⁶⁴URebeka waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona u-Isaka, wehla ekameleni.

⁶⁵Wathi encekwini: “Ngubani le ndoda ehamba kithi endle na?” Yasisithi inceku: Le yinkosi yami; ngalokho wathatha iveli wazimboza.

⁶⁶Inceku yayisimtshela u-Isaka konke ebikwenzile.

⁶⁷U-Isaka wamngenisa etendeni likanina uSara, waqamba igama lakhe ngokuthi uRebheka, waba ngumkakhe; wamthanda, u-Isaka waduduzeka emva kokufa kukanina.
