Otandi uvaneke kutya oto ka ninga hekulu yiigwana oyindji. 5 Edhina lyoye itali kala we Abram, ihe oAbraham, oshoka otandi ku ningi hekulu yiigwana oyindji. 6 Otandi ku pe oluvalo olwindji, nayamwe yomuyo otaa ka ninga aakwaniilwa. Oto ka kala u na oluvalo olwindji, notalu ka ninga iigwana.
7 “Otandi dhiginine euvaneko lyandje kungoye nokoluvalo lwoye momapipi gokomeho, naandika olyo ehangano lyaaluhe.

Evi alihe lyaKaanan otali ka ninga lyoluvalo lwoye sigo aluhe, nangame otii ka kala Kalunga kawo.”

Shika osho tashi holola ehangano pokati ketu nane. 13 Shaa ngoka na fukalekwe, naashika otashi ka ninga endhindhiliko lyokuholola kutya ehangano lyandje nane olyaaluhe. 14 Omulumentu kehe ngoka inaa fukalekwa, ita kala gwomaantu yandje, oshoka okwa yono ehangano lyandje.”

19 Kalunga okwa ti: “Aawe. Mukadhoye Sara ote ku valele omumati e to mu luku Isak. Otandi ka dhiginina ehangano lyandje naye nonoluvalo lwe sigo aluhe. 20 Ondu uvu epulo lyoye kombinga yaIsmael, onkee otandi mu yambeke e tandi mu pe aanona oyendji noluvalo olwindji. Oye ta ka ninga he yaawa omulongo nayaali, noluvalo lwe otandi ke lu ninga oshigwana oshinene. 21 Ihe ehangano lyandje otali kwatelele mo wo omumwoye Isak, ngoka ta ka valwa kuSara omumvo tagu ya pethimbo ngaandika.” 22 Kalunga sho a mana okupopya naAbraham, okwa yi.
23 Esiku ndyoka Abraham okwa vulika kuKalunga e ta fukalekitha Ismael naalumentu ayehe ya li maandjawo, aapika mboka ya valelwa maandjawo nenge ya landwa. 24 Abraham okwa li e na omimvo omilongo omugoyi nomugoyi, sho a fukala, 25 nomwana Ismael okwa li e na omimvo omulongo nandatu. 26 Ayehe yaali oya fukala esiku limwe, 27 Osho wo aapika ayehe yaAbraham.
