Pemphani kuti ndigule naye pa kontache chadi-chadi pano pamaso pa imwe monsene, towera mbuto yeneyi ikhale yanga ene yakuikhiramo anyakufa.”

Ine ndikukupasani pyonsene pene pamaso pa anthu anga. Kaikheni mkazanu.”
12Abrahamu adalamba pontho pamaso pa anthu ale 13mbalonga mbati, “Ndaphata miyendo, ngandiveserenimbo kuno. Ine ndinati ndiupagali, towera ndikaikhe mkazanga kweneko.”
14Eferoni adatawira mbati, 15“Mbuyanga, mbuto yathema kupagalwi kobiri zasiliva madzana manayi basi. Ayi penepyo ninji pakati pathu? Ndokoni mukaikhe mkazanu.”
16Abrahamu adatawirizana napyo mbamulengesera kobiri idalonga Eferoni pamaso pa Ahiti anzache onsene: kobiri zasiliva madzana manayi malingana na konta ikhaphatiswa basa na anyamalonda.
17Natenepo munda wa Eferoni mu Makipela chifupi na Mamure, munda pabodzi pene na nkhwimba ikhali mwenemoyo, pontho na miti yonsene m'madire a mundawo pidaperekwa 18kuna Abrahamu kukhala pyache pene pamaso pa Ahiti onsene akhadadza kumsuwo wa mzinda ule.
