12 UJehova wasesithi ku-Abrama: “Suka elizweni lakini lasezihlotsheni zakho lakwabendlu kayihlo uye elizweni engizakutshengisa lona.+ 2 Ngizakwenza ube yisizwe esikhulu, ngikubusise, ngenze ukuthi ibizo lakho libe likhulu njalo uzakuba yisibusiso.+

15 Ingilosi kaJehova yaphinda yabiza u-Abrahama okwesibili isemazulwini,

17 ngizakubusisa sibili njalo ngizakwandisa inzalo yakho* loba sekutheni, ibe njengezinkanyezi zamazulu lanjengetshebetshebe ekhunjini lolwandle+ njalo inzalo yakho izathatha* amadolobho* ezitha zayo.+

12 Kodwa uNkulunkulu wathi kuBhalamu: “Ungahambi labo. Akumelanga ubaqalekise abantu besizwe leso ngoba babusisiwe.”+
