13 UNkulunkulu wasesithi ku-Abrama: “Kumele ukwazi ukuthi izizukulwane zakho zizakuba ngabezizweni elizweni elingayisilo lazo lokuthi labobantu bazakwenza izizukulwane zakho zibe yizigqili, bazihlukuluze okweminyaka engu-400.+

7 UJehova waphinda wathi: “Sengikubonile sibili ukuhlupheka kwabantu bami eGibhithe njalo sengikuzwile ukukhala kwabo ngenxa yalabo ababasebenzisa ngenkani. Ngibazi mhlophe ubuhlungu ababuzwayo.+

15 Okhokho bethu baya eGibhithe+ njalo sahlala khona okweminyaka eminengi*+ futhi amaGibhithe asithwalisa nzima thina kanye labobaba bethu.+

6 Kanti njalo amaGibhithe asihlukuluza, asicindezela futhi asiphatha kabuhlungu esenza izigqili.+
