2 Abirahamu nga tanta asi Sara mumbyendi, makura Abimereki hompa gwaGerara ta tumu vakareli vendi va ka rete Sara.
3 Konyima, Karunga ta monekere Abimereki masiku monzodi, ta mu tantere asi: “Apa ono kara ngesi ove nakufa morwa mukadi ogu ono gusa, ga kwara.”
4 Nye Abimereki kapi ga kundamene Sara.* Age ta tanta asi: “Jehova ove ngoso kuvhura o dipage muhoko gwa hana nzo ndi?
5 Nani Abirahamu kapisi mwene ga tente asi Sara mumbyendi, ano Sara nage asi Abirahamu mukurwendi? Ame kwato unzoni morwa kapi na yi divire asi eyi nina kurugana epuko.”
6 Karunga gousili ta mu limburura monzodi asi: “Na yi diva asi ove kwato unzoni, makura yiyo nina ku kondere mokudira kuzona kwange. Eyi yiyo na dilire kukupulisira o ligwanekere nage panyama.
7 Tengwida mukadi govantu, yeeyi Abirahamu muporofete ntani age na ka ku kanderera po yipo o paruke, nye nsene kapi no mu tengwida diva asi ove ngo fa kumwe nepata lyoge.”
8 Abimereki ta pinduka ngurangura zonene, ta zigida vakareli vendi navenye makura tava tantere nzodi zendi, awo tava tukuka unene.
9 Abimereki ta zigida Abirahamu, ta mu pura asi: “Morwasinke ono ruganene yininke yokufana ngesi? Yisinke na kuzona eyi no retera nge udigu kumwe novantu ava ani pangere? Eyi ono rugana nge kapisi yininke yoyiwa.”
10 Abimereki ta pura Abirahamu asi: “Sitambo musinke wa yi ruganena?”
11 Abirahamu ta tanta asi: “Ame kwa gazarere asi vantu womosirongo esi kapi va tjira Karunga ntani awo kuvhura va dipage nge morwa mukadange.
12 Nye yousili age mumbyange, guhyetu gumwe tupu nye ozina vapeke, makura yiyo na mu kwara.
13 Apa Karunga ga tanterere nge ni tunde membo lyotate yipo ni ze morugendo, yiyo na tanterere Sara asi: ‘Nkenye oku ngatu za, ngo tante asi ame mukuroge, monkedi ezi yimo ngo likida nge eharo lyanarunye.’”
14 Abimereki ta gava nonzwi nonongombe ntani novakareli wovagara nava wovakadi kwaAbirahamu ntani ta mu tengwidire mukadendi Sara.
15 Abimereki ta tanta hena asi: “Sirongo sange soso. Tunga nkenye oku ono hara.”
16 Ano Abimereki ta tantere Sara asi: “Tani gava yisiliveli 1 000 kwamugara goge. Ayo nga yi likida asi kwato eyi ya horoka pokatji ketu. Navenye ngava diva asi ove kwato eyi wa zona.”
17 Abirahamu makura ta kanderere kwaKarunga gousili, ano Karunga ta verura Abimereki namukadendi ntani novakareli vendi wovakadi, makura tava tameke kureta hena vana,
18 morwa Jehova kwa ninkire vakadi navenye vemembo lyaAbimereki va dire kureta morwa Sara mukadaAbirahamu.
