17 ¹Aburamu amaze imyaka mirongo cyenda n'icyenda avutse, Data aramubonekera aramubwira ati: “Ndi Imana Nyirububasha—Data wawe Ushoborabyose. Genda imbere yanjye ube indakemwa. ^a a v1 El Shaddai bisobanura ngo "Imana Nyirububasha." Ku muryango w'isezerano ry'amasezerano, Data wacu yiyeretse ukoresheje iri zina—Nyirububasha we wenyine ushobora guha Aburahamu na Sara umwana mu zabukuru zabo. ²Kandi nzagirana namwe Isezerano ryanjye hagati yanjye nawe, kandi nzatuma ugwira cyane.”

³Nuko Aburamu yikubita hasi yubamye, maze Data aramubwira ati:

⁴“Naho jyewe, Isezerano ryanjye riri kumwe nawe, kandi uzaba se w'amoko menshi. ⁵Izina ryawe ntuzongera kwitwa Aburamu, ahubwo uzitwa Aburahamu, kuko nkugize se w'amoko menshi. ⁶Nzatuma wororoke cyane; nzatuma uba amoko menshi, kandi abami bazagukomokaho. ⁷Nzashimangira Isezerano ryanjye hagati yanjye nawe n'abazagukomokaho nyuma yawe, mu bihe byabo byose—Isezerano ry'iteka ryose—kugira ngo mbe Data wawe n'uw'abazagukomokaho nyuma yawe. ^b b v7 Imvugo y'Isezerano—"kuba Imana yawe n'Imana y'abana bawe"—ihinduwe ngo "kuba Data wawe na Data w'abana bawe" kuko ari yo sezerano Data wacu agirana: si amasezerano, ahubwo ni umuryango. Yiha Aburahamu n'ab'ibihe byose bakurikiraho. ⁸Nzaguha wowe n'abazagukomokaho nyuma yawe igihugu utuyemo nk'umunyamahanga—igihugu cyose cya Kanāni—kibe umugabane w'iteka ryose; kandi nzaba Data wabo.”

⁹Nuko Data abwira Aburahamu ati: “Naho wowe: komeza Isezerano ryanjye, wowe n'abana bawe nyuma yawe, mu bihe byabo byose. ¹⁰Iri ni ryo Sezerano ryanjye mukwiye gukomeza, hagati yanjye nawe n'abazagukomokaho nyuma yawe: umugabo wese muri mwe agomba gukebwa. ¹¹Mukebe ku mubiri w'agahu kanyu; rizaba ikimenyetso cy'Isezerano hagati yanjye nawe. ¹²Umugabo wese muri mwe, uko ibihe bizagenda bihingurana, agomba gukebwa amaze iminsi umunani avutse—yaba uwavukiye mu rugo rwawe cyangwa waguze ifeza ku munyamahanga utari uwo mu rubyaro rwawe. ¹³Uwavukiye mu rugo rwawe wese cyangwa wese waguze amafaranga yawe agomba gukebwa. Isezerano ryanjye rizaba ku mubiri wawe, Isezerano ry'iteka ryose. ¹⁴Umugabo wese utakebwe utakebwe ku mubiri w'agahu ke azacibwa mu bantu be—yarenze ku Isezerano ryanjye.”

Izina Rishya rya Sara

¹⁵Nuko Data abwira Aburahamu ati: “Ntuzongere kwita umugore wawe Sarayi—izina rye ni Sara. ¹⁶Nzamuha umugisha kandi koko nzaguha umwana umubyaranye. Nzamuha umugisha—azaba amoko; abami b'amahanga bazamukomokaho.”

¹⁷Aburahamu yikubita hasi yubamye, araseka, maze avuga mu mutima we ati: “Umuntu umaze imyaka ijana yabyarirwa umwana? Sara umaze imyaka mirongo cyenda yabyara?” ¹⁸Nuko Aburahamu abwira Data ati: “Icyampa Ishimayeli akabaho imbere yawe!”

¹⁹Ariko Data aravuga ati: “Oya, umugore wawe Sara azakubyarira umwana, kandi uzamwite Izaki. Nzashimangira Isezerano ryanjye na we, Isezerano ry'iteka ryose ku bazamukomokaho nyuma ye. ^c c v19 Izina Izaki bisobanura ngo "araseka"—icyibutso cyoroheje cy'uko Sara yasetse atangaye ubwo isezerano ryatangwaga. ²⁰Naho Ishimayeli, nakumvise. Nzamuha umugisha, ntume wororoke, nkumugwize cyane. Azakomokwaho n'abatware cumi na babiri, kandi nzamuhindura ubwoko bukomeye. ²¹Ariko Isezerano ryanjye nzarishimangiza Izaki, uwo Sara azakubyarira muri iki gihe umwaka utaha.”

²²Amaze kuvugana na Aburahamu, Data azamuka amuvaho. ²³Nuko Aburahamu afata Ishimayeli umuhungu we, n'abavukiye mu rugo rwe bose, n'abo yaguze amafaranga ye bose—umugabo wese wo mu rugo rwa Aburahamu—maze akeba umubiri w'agahu kabo uwo munsi nyirizina, nk'uko Data yari yamubwiye. ²⁴Aburahamu yari amaze imyaka mirongo cyenda n'icyenda avutse ubwo yakebwaga ku mubiri w'agahu ke. ^d d v24 Gukeba cyari ikimenyetso cy'umubiri cyerekana ko umuntu ari uwo mu bwoko bw'Isezerano rya Data wacu. ²⁵Umuhungu we Ishimayeli yari amaze imyaka cumi n'itatu ubwo yakebwaga ku mubiri w'agahu ke. ²⁶Uwo munsi nyirizina Aburahamu na Ishimayeli umuhungu we barakebwa. ²⁷Abagabo bose bo mu rugo rwe—abavukiye mu rugo n'abaguzwe ifeza ku munyamahanga—barakebwa na we.
