uThixo yithi kuAbraham makathabathe unyana wakho, aye ezweni laseMoriya
1Emva koko uThixo wamvavanya uAbraham, wathi kuye: “Abraham! Wathi yena, Ndilapha. 2Wathi, Thabatha kaloku unyana wakho, emnye kuwe, omthandayo, uIsake, uye ezweni laseMoriya; umenzele khona idini elinyukayo, kwenye yeentaba endokuxelela yona. 3Wavuka kusasa uAbraham, walibopha iesile lakhe, wathabatha abafana bakhe bobabini, noIsake unyana wakhe, wahamba naye, wacanda iinkuni zedini elinyukayo, wemka esiya kuloo ndawo wayemxelele yona uThixo. 4Ngomhla wesithathu uAbraham wawaphakamisa amehlo akhe, wayibona loo ndawo ikude. 5Wathi uAbraham kumadodana, Hlalani nina apha ne-esile; siye kunqula khona mna nomfana, sibuyele kuwe. 6Wazithabatha uAbraham iinkuni zedini elinyukayo, wazisa kuIsake unyana wakhe; waphatha umlilo nemela esandleni sakhe; bahamba bobabini kunye. 7Wathi uIsake kuAbraham uyise, Bawo! Ndim lo nyana wam. Wathi, Ukho umlilo neenkuni, kodwa liphi na idini elinyukayo? 8Wathi uAbraham, uThixo wozinyulela ixhwane elitshiswayo, nyana wam; bahamba bobabini kunye. 9Bafika endaweni abemxelele yona uThixo; yaye uAbraham wakha isibingelelo apho waza walungisa iinkuni waza wabophelela uIsake unyana wakhe waza wambeka esibingelelweni phezu kweenkuni. 10Wasolula isandla uAbraham, wathabatha isitshetshe, ukuba ahlabe unyana wakhe. 11Sambiza ke isithunywa sikaYehova ezulwini, sathi, Abraham, Abraham! Wathi yena, Ndilapha. 12Wathi, Musa ukusisa isandla sakho kumfana, musa ukumenza nto, ngokuba ndiyazi ngoku ukuba uyamoyika uThixo, ekubeni ungandikhanyelanga unyana wakho emnye. 13uAbraham waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wakhangela, nantso inkunzi yegusha ngasemva etyholweni, ineempondo zayo; emva koko uAbraham waya wathabatha inkunzi yegusha waza wenza umbingelelo otshiswayo esikhundleni sonyana wakhe. 14uAbraham wayibiza loo ndawo ngokuthi, NguYehova Jire; njengoko kuthiweyo, Makube njalo entabeni kaYehova. 15Sambiza ke isithunywa sikaYehova okwesibini, sisemazulwini. 16Wathi, Ndizifungile, utsho uYehova, ngenxa enokuba uyenzile le nto, akwakhanyela unyana wakho okuphela kwakhe; 17Ndiya kukusikelela ndiyandise imbewu yakho njengeenkwenkwezi zezulu nanjengentlabathi eselunxwemeni lolwandle; imbewu yakho iyidle ilifa indlu yeentshaba zayo; 18Zonke iintlanga zehlabathi ziya kuzisikelela ngembewu yakho; ngenxa yokuba uliphulaphule ilizwi lam. 19Wabuyela uAbraham kumadodana akhe, bemka baya kunye eBher-shebha; yaye uAbraham wahlala eBher-shebha. 20Emveni kwezi zinto, waxelelwa uAbraham, kwathiwa, Yabona, uMilka naye wamzalela uNahore, umninawa wakho; 21noHusi, izibulo lakhe, noBhusi, umninawa wakhe, noKemuweli, uyise ka-Aram; 22noKesede, noHaso, noPildazi, noJidlafu, noBhetuweli. 23uBhetuweli wazala uRebheka; Oonyana ababini ababenamazinyo asithoba uMilka wazala uNakore, umntakwabo Abraham. 24Intombi yakhe, egama linguReuma, yazala uTebha, noGaham, noTahase, noMaga.
