Imyaka Sara yamaze mu buzima bwiwe
Sara arapfa, Aburahamu ararira, hanyuma aratangura kumvikana ku giciro. Bamuhaye ubuvumo bwo gushinguramwo nk'ingabirano, ashimika ku kuriha igiciro cose imbere y'ivyabona. Itongo rya mbere atunze vy'ukuri mu gihugu c'isezerano ni imva.
23 1Sara yabayeho imyaka ijana na mirongo ibiri n’indwi; iyo ni yo myaka Sara yamaze mu buzima bwiwe. 2Sara yapfiriye i Kiriyati-Ariba, ari ryo Heburoni, mu gihugu ca Kanani. Aburahamu araza kumuborogera no kumurira. 3Nuko Aburahamu arahaguruka ava iruhande rw’umuvyimba wiwe, abwira Abahiti ati: 4“Ndi umunyamahanga kandi ndi umusuhuke muri mwebwe; nimumpe aho guhambira muri mwebwe, kugira mpambe uwanje yapfuye nkure imbere yanje.”
5Abahiti bishura Aburahamu bati: 6“Twumvirize, mukama wanje: uri umuganwa w’Imana muri twebwe. Hamba uwawe yapfuye mu mva yacu nziza kuruta izindi; nta n’umwe muri twebwe azokwima imva yiwe ngo uhambemwo uwawe yapfuye.” a a v6 ‘Umuganwa w’Imana’ ryari rivugwa kera mu Giheburayo ngo rierekane umutware ahambaye canke aterwa iteka cane, atari izina ry’idini.
7Aburahamu arahaguruka, yunamira abantu b’ico gihugu, ari bo Bahiti. 8Arababwira ati: “Nimba mwemeye ko mpamba uwanje yapfuye nkamukura imbere yanje, nimunyumvirize, munyingingire kuri Eferoni mwene Zohari, 9kugira ampe isenga ryiwe rya Makipela, riri ku mpera y’umurima wiwe. Nagurishe ndyo muri mwebwe ku giciro cuzuye, ngo rinbere aho guhambira.”
10Eferoni Umuhiti, yari yicaye hagati mu Bahiti, yishura Aburahamu imbere y’Abahiti bose binjira mu marembo y’igisagara ciwe ati: b b v10 Irembo ry’igisagara ni ho hantu rusangi hakorerwa ivy’ubudandaji kandi hakemurirwa ibibazo vy’amategeko imbere y’ivyabona. 11“Oya, mukama wanje, umviriza: ndaguhaye uwo murima, kandi ndaguhaye n’isenga riri muri wo. Imbere y’abantu banje ndabiguhaye. Hamba uwawe yapfuye.”
12Aburahamu yongera kunamira abantu b’ico gihugu. 13Abwira Eferoni imbere y’abantu ati: “Nimba wemeye, nyumviriza: nzoriha ico murima—nguhereze amahera, ngo mpambe ngaho uwanje yapfuye.”
14Eferoni yishura Aburahamu ati: 15“Mukama wanje, nyumviriza: isi ingana n’ibiro cumi vy’ifeza—ivyo ni ibiki hagati yacu? Hamba uwawe yapfuye.” c c v15 Icekeli cari igipimo c’uburemere bw’ifeza (nka garama cumi na zimwe); amacekeli amajana ane ni co cari igiciro c’umurima wo guhambamwo.
16Aburahamu yemera ivyo Eferoni yavuze, aramupimira igiciro yari yavuze imbere y’Abahiti: ibiro nka cumi vy’ifeza, ku gipimo gisanzwe gikoreshwa n’abadandaza.
17Umurima wa Eferoni wo muri Makipela, werekeye i Mamure—uwo murima, isenga riri muri wo, n’ibiti vyose biri mu mbibe zawo, impande zose—vyemezwa 18ko ari ivya Aburahamu, imbere y’Abahiti bose bari baje mu marembo y’igisagara ciwe. 19Inyuma y’ivyo, Aburahamu arahamba Sara umugore wiwe mw’isenga ry’umurima wa Makipela, werekeye i Mamure—ari ryo Heburoni—mu gihugu ca Kanani. 20Nuko uwo murima n’isenga riri muri wo biba ivya Aburahamu, Abahiti bamuhereza ngo bibe aho guhambira.
