UHagare
Icebo leNkosi ngentombi yaYo
UHagare wayesisicaka sikaSara. USara wayemdala kwaye wayengenabo abantwana. Waye waxelela umyeni wakhe, u-Abraham ukuba atshate uHagare khon’ ukuze babenako ukubanabantwana. U-Abraham noHagare baye batshata, kwaye kungekudala uHagare wayeza kubanomntwana.
UHagare noSara baqala ukungavani. UHagare wakhetha ukubalekela entlango.
Njengoko uHagare wayehamba, waye wadinwa kakhulu kwaye wanxanwa. Ekugqibeleni, waye wafika kwindawo enamanzi waze waphumla apho.
INkosi yayisazi ngeengxaki zikaHagare kwaye yayinecebo lokumnceda. Yona yathumela ingelosi ukuba imcele abuyele emva ku-Abraham noSara. Yathembisa ukuba usapho lukaHagare lwaluya kwanda. Yona yathi umntwana lowo wayeza kubanaye yayiyinkwenkwe kwaye kwakumele amthiye igama elingu-Ishmayeli.
UHagare wayethembele eNkosini kwaye wayithobela ingelosi. Waye wabuyela ku-Abraham noSara. UHagare waye wafumana inkwenkwe, kwaye igama layo yayingu-Ishmayeli. UHagare wayesazi ukuba iNkosi yayibagadile.
