1Emva kwalokhu ilizwi leNkosi lafika kuAbrama ngombono, lathi: Ungesabi wena Abrama, ngiyisihlangu sakho; umvuzo wakho uzakuba mkhulu kakhulu.
2UAbrama wathi: Nkosi Nkulunkulu, uzangiphani? Ngoba kangilamntwana; indlalifa yendlu yami inguEliyezeri waseDamaseko.
3UAbrama wathi futhi: Khangela, kawungiphanga nzalo; inceku yendlu yami izakuba yindlalifa yami.
4INkosi yasisithi kuye: Lo kayikudla ilifa lakho, kodwa ozakuphuma emibilinini yakho uzakudla ilifa lakho.
5Yamkhuphela phandle yathi: Khangela ngasezulwini ubale izinkanyezi uba ungazibala. Yathi kuye: Inzalo yakho izakuba ngako.
7Yathi kuye: NgiyiNkosi eyakususa eUri elamaKaladiya ukuba ngikunike ilizwe leli libe yilifa lakho.
8Wathi: Nkosi Nkulunkulu, ngizakwazi ngani ukuthi lizakuba yilifa lami na?
9Yathi kuye: Ngilethela ithokazi elileminyaka emithathu, lesibhuzikazi esileminyaka emithathu, lenqama eleminyaka emithathu, lejuba, lenkwilimba.
10Wasethatha zonke lezizinto, wazidabula phakathi, wabeka leyo laleyongxenye yazo ikhangelene lenye; kodwa inyoni kazidabulanga.
11Amanqe ehlela phezu kwezidumbu, uAbrama wawaxotsha.
12Ilanga selitshona uAbrama wajunywa yibuthongo obukhulu; emnyameni omkhulu watshaywa luvalo.
13INkosi yathi kuAbrama: Yazi impela ukuthi inzalo yakho izazula elizweni elingesilo layo, isebenzele abantu abazakuyihlupha iminyaka engamakhulu amane.Eks 1:1–14; Seb 7:6
14Kodwa ngizakusahlulela lesosizwe ezakusisebenzela; emva kwalokho izakuphuma ilempahla enengi.Eks 12:40, 41; Seb 7:7
15Kodwa wena uzakuya kwabaphansi ngocuthula, umbelwe usuluphele kakhulu.
16Esizukulwaneni sesine izakubuya lapha; ngoba ububi bamaAmori kabukapheleli.
17Kwathi lapho ilanga selitshonile sekumnyama, kwabonakala imbawula ethunqayo lelangabi lomlilo kudabula phakathi kwalezozingxenye.
18Ngalolosuku iNkosi yenza isivumelwano loAbrama, yathi: Ngiyayinika inzalo yakho lelilizwe, kusukela emfuleni waseGibithe kuze kube semfuleni omkhulu othiwa liYufrathi,Seb 7:5
