¹Kwaba khona indlala ezweni, kuphela indlala yokuqala eyayikhona emihleni ka-Abrahama. U-Isaka waya ku-Abimeleki, inkosi yamaFilisti, eGerari.

²UJehova wabonakala kuye, wathi: “Ungehleli eGibithe; hlala ezweni engizokutshela ngalo:

³hlala njengowezizwe kuleli zwe, ngiyakuba nawe, ngikubusise; ngokuba ngiyakukunika wena nenzalo yakho onke lawa mazwe, futhi ngigcwalise isifungo engasifunga kuyihlo u-Abrahama;

⁴Ngiyakwenza inzalo yakho yande ibe ngangezinkanyezi zezulu, nginike inzalo yakho onke lawa mazwe; nangenzalo yakho ziyakubusiswa izizwe zonke zomhlaba;

⁵Ngokuba u-Abrahama walilalela izwi lami, wagcina umyalo wami, nemiyalo yami, nezimiso zami, nemithetho yami.

⁶U-Isaka wahlala eGerari.

⁷Amadoda aleyondawo ambuza ngomkakhe; wathi: “Ungudadewethu, ngokuba wayesaba ukuthi: ‘Ungumkami;’ wathi, ukuze bangangibulali abantu baleyondawo ngenxa kaRebeka; ngoba wayemuhle ukubukwa.

⁸Kwathi, eselapho isikhathi eside, u-Abimeleki, inkosi yamaFilisti, walunguza ngefasitela, wabona, bheka, u-Isaka edlala noRebeka umkakhe.

⁹U-Abimeleki wambiza u-Isaka, wathi: “Bheka, ngempela ungumkakho; futhi utheni, Ungudadewethu? UIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ngoba ngithe: Kangiyikufela yena.

¹⁰Wayesethi u-Abimeleki: “Wenzeni kithi na? omunye wabantu ubengalala nomkakho kalula, nawe ubungasilethela icala.

¹¹U-Abimeleki wayeseyala bonke abantu bakhe, wathi: “Yilowo nalowo othinta le ndoda noma umkakhe uyakubulawa nokubulawa.

¹²U-Isaka wahlwanyela kulelo zwe, wazuza ngokuphindwe kayikhulu ngawo lowo mnyaka, uJehova wambusisa.

¹³Indoda yakhula, yaqhubeka ikhula, yaze yaba nkulu kakhulu.

¹⁴Ngokuba wayenezimvu nezinkomo, nezinceku eziningi, amaFilisti aba nomona ngaye.

¹⁵Yonke imithombo ezayimba izinceku zikayise ezinsukwini zika-Abrahama uyise, amaFilisti ayivala ayigcwalisa ngomhlabathi.

¹⁶U-Abimeleki wayesethi ku-Isaka: “Suka kithi; ngoba wena ulamandla kakhulu kulathi.

¹⁷U-Isaka wasuka lapho, wamisa itende lakhe esigodini saseGerari, wahlala khona.

¹⁸U-Isaka wabuye wemba imithombo ababeyimbile ezinsukwini zika-Abrahama uyise; ngoba amaFilisti azivala ngemva kokufa kuka-Abrahama, futhi wawaqamba ngamagama uyise ayewaqambe ngawo.

¹⁹Izinceku zika-Isaka zemba esigodini, zathola lapho umthombo nomthombo.

²⁰Abelusi baseGerari baphikisana nabelusi baka-Isaka, bathi: “Amanzi ngawethu; wabiza umthombo ngokuthi i-Eseke; ngoba baphikisana laye.

²¹Bemba omunye umthombo, baxabana nangawo, wawuqamba ngokuthi iSitina.

²²Wasuka lapho, wemba omunye umthombo; ngakho-ke abaxabananga; wayibiza ngokuthi iRehoboti; wathi: “Ngokuba manje uJehova usesenzele indawo, futhi siyakuzala ezweni.”

²³Wasesuka lapho waya eBherisheba.

²⁴UJehova wabonakala kuye ngalobo busuku, wathi: “NginguNkulunkulu kayihlo u-Abrahama; ungesabi, ngokuba nginawe, ngikubusise, ngandise inzalo yakho ngenxa ka-Abrahama inceku yami.

²⁵Wakha khona i-altare, wabiza igama likaJehova, wamisa itende lakhe khona; izinceku zika-Isaka zemba umthombo khona.

²⁶Ngemva kwalokho u-Abimeleki waya kuye evela eGerari, no-Ahusati umngane wakhe noPikoli induna yebutho lakhe.

²⁷U-Isaka wathi kubo: “Nizelani kimi, lokhu ningizonda, ningixoshile kini na?”

²⁸Base bethi: “Sibonile nokubona ukuthi uJehova unawe; sathi: ‘Makube khona isifungo phakathi kwethu, phakathi kwethu nawe, senze isivumelwano nawe;

²⁹ukuze ungasenzeli okubi, ngoba kasizange sikuthintile, lanjengoba sikwenzele okuhle kuphela, sikumukisa ngokuthula; manje usubusisiwe weNkosi.

³⁰Wabenzela idili, badla, baphuza.

³¹Basebevuka ekuseni kakhulu, bafunga omunye komunye; u-Isaka wabamukisa, basuka kuye ngokuthula.

³²Ngalolo suku izinceku zika-Isaka zafika, zamtshela ngomthombo ezaziwumbile, zathi kuye: “Sithole amanzi.”

³³Wayibiza ngokuthi iSeba; ngalokho igama lomuzi liyiBeri Sheba kuze kube namuhla.

³⁴U-Esawu wayeneminyaka engamashumi amane ekuthatheni kwakhe uJuditi indodakazi kaBeri umHeti noBasemati indodakazi ka-Eloni umHeti.

³⁵Okwaba lusizi ku-Isaka noRebeka.
