Hagari n’umuhungu we Ishimayeli bisanze mu butayu bwa Berisheba nyuma yo kwirukanwa na Aburahamu.
Barabuze amazi, kugera n’aho Ishimayeli yari agiye gupfa yishwe n’inyota.
Noneho, Hagari aragenda yicara amwerekeye, amuhaye intera nk’aho umuntu yarasa umwambi, kuko yibwiraga ati “Ne kureba umwana wanjye apfa.” Yicara amwerekeye atera hejuru ararira.
Akigenda kugira ngo atabona umuhungu we apfa, umumarayika w’Imana aramuhamagara amubwira ko Imana yumvise ijwi ry’umwana.
Hanyuma, * »Imana imuhumura amaso, abona iriba, aragenda avoma amazi yuzuye ya mvumba, ayaramiza umuhungu we. »*(Intangiriro 21:19) Nguko uko ubuzima bwabo bwarokotse.
Iyi nkuru uko yanditswe, ntisobanura neza niba iriba ryavumbuwe na Hagari ryarigeze kubaho cyangwa niba ryarakozwe mu buryo bw’igitangaza n’Imana muri ako kanya. Iki gice kivuga gusa uburyo Hagari, amaze kuzerera mu butayu hamwe n’umuhungu we Ishmael, yisanze adafite amazi kandi yihebye, ababajwe n’uko umuhungu we agiye gupfa.
Nibwo Imana yumva ijwi ry’umwana ikohereza umumarayika guhumuriza Hagari no guhumura amaso ku iriba ry’amazi.
Niba iryo riba ryavumbuwe na Hagari ryarigeze kubaho ariko Hagari atari yaribonye, noneho akiheba kugeza igihe Imana imuyoboye ikarimwereka, ni isomo n’ikimenyetso cyerekana ko *mu gihe cy’ibibazo, Imana ishobora guhumura amaso yacu, igakangura ubwenge bwacu n’ibitekerezo byacu kugira ngo, kuri twe ubwacu, tuvumbure ibisubizo bisanzwe biriho hafi yacu, n’inzira zo kubisohokamo neza.*
Niba kandi iri riba ryarakozwe mu buryo bw’igitangaza n’Imana muri kiriya gihe nyacyo cyo gukiza Hagari na Ishimayeli, nabyo, ni isomo n’ikimenyetso kigaragaza ko *mu gihe dusanze duhuye n’ibibazo bitadushobokera, Imana ishobora gutabara mu buryo bw’igitangaza kugira ngo idukize.*
Ibyo ari byo byose, iki gice kiratwigisha ko abo muri iki gihe bihebye nka Hagari mu butayu bwa Berisheba, bafite uburenganzira bwo kwizera no kwiringira Imana, kuko ari Inyembabazi kandi idashobora na rimwe kudutererana igihe abandi badutereranye bakatwirukana.
ISENGESHO:
Mwami Mana yacu, duhe kutazigera dutakaza kwizera muri wowe no kwiheba mu gihe turi mu bibazo.
Ni mu izina ry’agaciro ry’umwana wawe Yesu Kristo tubisabye, Amen.
