Naloli umbombile isi sikabagila napanandi.” 10Popapo Abimeleki alinkundalusya Abrahamu alinkuti, “Ngimba gwinogonaga sya fiki apa gwabombaga sisisi?” 11Umwene Abrahamu alinkwamula alinkuti, “Nasibombile isi papo natilaga, ninogonaga ukuti abandu ba nkisu iki, aba batikuntila Kyala, bisakungoga une panongwa ya nkasi gwangu. 12Unkikulu uyu yo ilumbu gwangu naloli, mwana gwa tata, loli tukapapigwa mwa yuba yumoywene mma, po lelo ndinkwenda nukumwega ukuya nkasi gwangu. 13Lelo bo Kyala ikunyembesya ukufuma nnyumba ya tata, popapo ndikumbula unkasi gwangu ndikuti, kosa kuko tukwakwendaga ukambakisyege une, ukayobege ukatigi, uyu yo ilumbu gwangu.” 14Popapo Abimeleki alinkwega imbene ni ng'ombe kangi nababombi abanyambala nabakikulu, alinkumpa Abrahamu, kangi alinkungomokesya unkasi gwake Sara. 15Alinkumbula alinkuti, “Keta, ikisu kyosa iki kukiketa kyo kisu kyangu une, bunobuno ubagile ukwakuyenga posa apa gwiganile.” 16Umwene Sara yo alinkumbula alinkuti, “Numpele ilumbugo indalama sya siliva elifu yumo (1,000); sisisi syo syakomola ikilugu kangi sikukupelelaga ugwe ukuya gwe nsita nongwa nkyeni mbandu aba ulimo.” 17Bunobuno Abrahamu alinkupyelesya kwa Kyala, umwene Kyala alinkumbumbulusya Abimeleki na yu nkasi gwake, kangi na babombi bake abakikulu, popapo balinkwenda nukupapa abana. 18Namanga Kyala abigele imbapo bosa aba nnyumba ya Abimeleki panongwa ya Sara, unkasi gwa Abrahamu.
