Wahlala ehlane lasePharanu ; unina wamtha thela umfazi ezweni laseGibithe. Isivumelwano sika-Abrahama no-Abimeleki

kepha uye endlini kababa nasezihlotsheni zami , uyithathele khona indodana yami umfazi.

Wathi kimi : U Jehova, engihambe ebusweni bakhe , uzakuthuma ingelosi yakhe nawe , aphumelelise indlela yakho; uyakuyithathela indodana yami umfazi ezihlotsheni zami nasendlini kababa.

U-Abrahama waphinda wathatha umfazi ogama lakhe linguKetura.

Kwathi u -Esawu eseneminyaka engamashumi amane , wathatha umfazi uJuditi indodakazi kaBeri umHeti noBasemati indodakazi ka-Eloni umHeti.

Uma inkosi yaso isinika umfazi , yena esizalela amadodana noma amadodakazi, umfazi nabantwana bakhe bayakuba ngabenkosi yakhe , sona siphume sodwa.

Uma umuntu ethatha umfazi kanye nonina , kungukonakala; bayakushiswa ngomlilo yena nabo, ukuze kungabikho konakala phakathi kwenu.

Wothatha umfazi oseyintombi.

Umfelokazi noma umfazi olahliweyo noma owesifazane owonakelyo , isifebe, laba akayikubathatha , kepha uyakuthatha intombi yabantu bakubo ibe ngumkakhe.

Yisho kubantwana bakwa-Israyeli, uthi kubo: Uma umfazi womuntu eduka, aphambuke kuye,

Lowo ungumthetho wesikhwele, lapho umfazi esephansi kwendoda yakhe eduka, angcoliswe,

Ungafisi umfazi womakhelwane wakho ; ungafisi indlu yomakhelwane wakho, nensimu yakhe, nenceku yakhe, nencekukazi yakhe, nenkabi yakhe, nembongolo yakhe, nokunye okomakhelwane wakho.

Uma umuntu ethatha umfazi, angene kuye, amale,

Lapho umuntu ethatha umfazi , aganwe nguye, engasathandeki emehlweni akhe kodwa , lokhu efumanisile kuye okuthile okwenyanyekayo, uyakumlobela incwadi yesahlukaniso , amnike yona esandleni sakhe , amkhiphe endlini yakhe.

Nxa umuntu ethatha umfazi omus ha, akayikuphuma impi, anganikwa futhi umsebenzi noma yimuphi ; uyakuhlala ekhululekile ekhaya umnyaka , athokozise umkakhe amthathileyo. Izibambiso

Nxa amadoda amabili elwa , umfazi wenye abesesondela ukuyophula indoda yakhe esandleni saleyo eyishayayo , aselule isandla sakhe, ayibambe ngomphambili,

funa kube khona phakathi kwenu indoda , noma umfazi, noma umndeni, noma isizwe esinhliziyo yaso ifulathela namuhla uJehova uNkulunkulu wethu ukuyokhonza onkulunkulu balezo zizwe , kube phakathi kwenu impande ethela inhlungunyembe nomhlonyane;

Emva kwabo bonke wafa umfazi.

Kwakukhona izelamani eziyisikhombisa, owokuqala wathatha umfazi; wafa engashiyanga nzalo.

Omunye wathi: Ngithathile umfazi, ngalokho ngingeze.

Kwakukhona izelamani eziyisikhombisa; owokuqala wathatha umfazi; wafa engenamntwana,

Kepha ngenxa yobufebe akube yilowo nalowo abe nowakhe umfazi, nalowo wesifazane abe neyakhe indoda.

Indoda ayinike umfazi okumfaneleyo; nomfazi enze njalo endodeni.

Umfazi kanamandla phezu kowakhe umzimba , kodwa yindoda enawo ; kanjalo nayo indoda ayinamandla phezu kowayo umzimba , kodwa ngumfazi onawo.

Kepha abaganeneyo ngiyabayala , kungemina kodwa yiNkosi , ukuthi umfazi kangahlukani nendoda;

Uboshelwe kumfazi na ? Ungafuni ukukhululeka. Ukhululekile kumfazi na ? Ungamfuni umfazi.

Umfazi uboshiwe ngesikhathi indoda yakhe isekhona ; kepha uma indoda isifile, ukhululekile, angendela nakubani ngokubona kwakhe , kuphela ukuba kube seNkosini.

Nani-ke, yilowo nalowo makathande umkakhe njengokuba ezithanda yena , kepha umfazi makahloniphe indoda yakhe.
