Ugenesisi 26

¹Kwasekusiba khona indlala elizweni, ngaphandle kwendlala yakuqala eyayikhona ensukwini zikaAbrahama. UIsaka wasesiya kuAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti, eGerari.

²I Nkosi yasibonakala kuye, yathi: Ungehleli eGibhithe, hlala elizweni engizakutshela lona;

³hlala njengowezizwe kulelilizwe, futhi ngizakuba lawe ngikubusise; ngoba ngizanika wena lenzalo yakho wonke lamazwe, ngiqinise isifungo engasifunga kuAbrahama uyihlo.

⁴Ngizakwandisa inzalo yakho njengenkanyezi zamazulu, ngizanika inzalo yakho lamazwe wonke; lenzalweni yakho zizabusiswa izizwe zonke zomhlaba;

⁵ngalokhu ukuthi uAbrahama walalela ilizwi lami, wagcina ukulaya kwami, imilayo yami, izimiso zami lemithetho yami.

⁶UIsaka wahlala-ke eGerari.

⁷Amadoda aleyondawo asebuza ngomkakhe. Wasesithi: Ungudadewethu; ngoba wesaba ukuthi: Umkami. Hlezi amadoda aleyondawo angibulale ngenxa kaRebeka, ngoba wayekhangeleka kuhle.

⁸Kwasekusithi esehlale khona isikhathi eside, uAbhimeleki inkosi yamaFilisti walunguza phansi ngewindi, wabona, khangela-ke, uIsaka wayedlala loRebeka umkakhe.

⁹UAbhimeleki wasembiza uIsaka, wathi: Isibili, khangela, ungumkakho; utsho ngani ukuthi: Ungudadewethu? UIsaka wasesithi kuye: Ngoba ngathi, hlezi ngife ngenxa yakhe.

¹⁰UAbhimeleki wasesithi: Kuyini lokhu okwenze kithi? Bekulula ukuthi omunye wabantu alale lomkakho; ubususibeka icala.

¹¹UAbhimeleki waselaya wonke umuntu, esithi: Othinta lindoda lomkayo uzabulawa isibili.

¹²UIsaka wasehlanyela kulelolizwe, wathola ngalowomnyaka okuphindwe kalikhulu; i Nkosi yasimbusisa.

¹³Lowomuntu waba mkhulu, waqhubeqhubeka waba mkhulu waze waba mkhulu kakhulu.

¹⁴Njalo wayelemfuyo yezimvu lemfuyo yezinkomo lenceku ezinengi; ngakho amaFilisti aba lomona ngaye.

¹⁵Lemithombo yonke izinceku zikayise ezaziyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, amaFilisti ayeyivalile, ayigcwalisa ngenhlabathi.

¹⁶UAbhimeleki wasesithi kuIsaka: Suka kithi, ngoba ulamandla kakhulu kulathi.

¹⁷UIsaka wasesuka lapho, wamisa inkamba esigodini seGerari, wahlala khona.

¹⁸UIsaka wabuya waphanda imithombo yamanzi ababeyigebhile ensukwini zikaAbrahama uyise, ngoba amaFilisti ayeyivalile emva kokufa kukaAbrahama. Wayibiza amabizo ngamabizo uyise ayewabizile.

¹⁹Izinceku zikaIsaka zasezigebha esihotsheni, zathola khona umthombo wamanzi agobhozayo.

²⁰Njalo abelusi beGerari babangisana labelusi bakaIsaka, besithi: Amanzi ngawethu. Ngakho wabiza ibizo lomthombo iEseki, ngoba baphikisana laye.

²¹Zasezigebha omunye umthombo, lalowo-ke bawubanga. Wasebiza ibizo lawo iSitina.

²²Waseqhubeka wasuka lapho, wagebha omunye umthombo, kodwa lowo kabawubanganga. Wasewubiza ibizo lawo iRehobothi, wathi: Ngoba i Nkosi isisenzele indawo, futhi sizakuba lesithelo elizweni.

²³Wasesenyuka lapho waya eBherishebha.

²⁴I Nkosi yasibonakala kuye ngalobobusuku yathi: NginguNkulunkulu kaAbrahama uyihlo. Ungesabi ngoba ngilawe, ngizakubusisa ngiyandise inzalo yakho ngenxa kaAbrahama inceku yami.

²⁵Wasesakha khona ilathi, wabiza ebizweni le Nkosi, wamisa khona ithente lakhe, lenceku zikaIsaka zagebha khona umthombo.

²⁶UAbhimeleki wasesiya kuye evela eGerari loAhuzathi umngane wakhe loFikoli induna yebutho yakhe.

²⁷UIsaka wasesithi kubo: Lizeleni kimi, lokhu liyangizonda, lingixotshile kini?

²⁸Basebesithi: Sesibonile lokubona ukuthi i Nkosi ilawe. Ngakho sathi: Ake kube khona isifungo phakathi kwethu, phakathi kwethu lawe, asenze isivumelwano lawe,

²⁹sokuthi ungasenzeli okubi, njengoba singakuthintanga, njengoba sikwenzele okuhle kuphela, sakuyekela wahamba ngokuthula; wena khathesi ungobusisiweyo we Nkosi.

³⁰Wasebenzela idili, basebesidla banatha.

³¹Basebevuka ekuseni kakhulu, bafungisana omunye komunye; uIsaka wasebayekela bahamba, basuka kuye ngokuthula.

³²Kwasekusithi ngalolosuku izinceku zikaIsaka zafika, zambikela mayelana lomthombo ezaziwugebhile, zathi kuye: Sithole amanzi.

³³Wawubiza ngokuthi yiShebha; ngakho ibizo lomuzi liyiBherishebha kuze kube lamuhla.

³⁴Kwasekusithi uEsawu eseleminyaka engamatshumi amane wathatha umfazi uJudithi indodakazi kaBeri umHethi, loBasemathi indodakazi kaEloni umHethi.

³⁵Lalaba baba lusizi lwawo umoya kuIsaka loRebeka.
