Abrahamu wakasambizga mwana wake Yisake kuti watemwenge Yehova. Kweniso wakamusambizga kuti wagomezgenge vinthu vyose ivyo Yehova walayizga. Kweni apo Yisake wakaŵa na vyaka 25, Yehova wakapempha Abrahamu kuti wachite chinthu chinyake icho chikaŵa chakusuzga chomene. Kasi wakamuphalira vichi?

Chiuta wakaphalira Abrahamu kuti: ‘Tora mwana wako yumoza pera ndipo ukamupeleke sembe pa phiri, ku charu cha Moriya.’ Abrahamu wakamanya yayi chifukwa icho Yehova wakamutumira kuti wachite nthena. Kweni wakapulikira.

Mulenjilenji, Abrahamu wakatora Yisake na ŵateŵeti ŵake ŵaŵiri ndipo ŵakanyamuka kuluta ku Moriya. Ŵati ŵenda mazuŵa ghatatu, phiri la Moriya likayamba kuwoneka chapatali. Abrahamu wakaphalira ŵateŵeti ŵake kuti ŵamulindilire, ndipo iyo na Yisake ŵalutenge kukapeleka sembe. Abrahamu wakapa nkhuni Yisake kuti wanyamure, ndipo iyo wakayegha chimayi. Yisake wakafumba adada ŵake kuti: ‘Kasi mberere iyo tamupeleka sembe yili nkhu?’ Abrahamu wakazgora kuti: ‘Mwana wane, Yehova wamupeleka.’

Ŵakati ŵafika pa phiri, ŵakazenga jotchero la sembe. Kufuma apo, Abrahamu wakakaka Yisake mawoko na malundi na kumugoneka pa jotchero.

Abrahamu wakatora chimayi. Nyengo yeneyiyo, mungelo wa Yehova wakamuchema kufuma kuchanya kuti: ‘Abrahamu! Ungamupwetekanga yayi mwana wako! Sono namanya kuti uli na chigomezgo mwa Chiuta, chifukwa wakhumbanga nadi kunipa mwana wako kuŵa sembe.’ Pamanyuma, Abrahamu wakawona mberere yanalume yakoleka mphondo (masengwe) mu chivwati. Wakasutura Yisake mwaluŵiro na kupeleka sembe mberere yira.

Kufuma pa zuŵa ili, Yehova wakatenge Abrahamu ni mubwezi wake. Kasi ukumanya chifukwa chake? Abrahamu wakachitanga chilichose icho Yehova wamutuma kuti wachite. Wakachitanga waka, nanga wangaleka kumanya chifukwa icho Yehova wamutumira.

Yehova wakawerezgaposo ivyo wakalayizga Abrahamu. Wakati: ‘Nikutumbikenge, ndipo uŵenge na ŵana ŵanandi chomene.’ Mazgu agha ghakang’anamuranga kuti Yehova watumbikenge ŵanthu wose ŵawemi kwizira mu banja la Abrahamu.
