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.+ 3 Ngizababusisa labo abakubusisayo njalo umuntu okuqalekisayo ngizamqalekisa.+ Zonke imuli ezisemhlabeni zizabusiswa* ngawe.”+

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.+

3 Hlala njengowezizweni elizweni leli.+ Ngizaqhubeka ngilawe futhi ngikubusisa ngoba wonke amazwe la ngizawanika wena lezizukulwane zakho*+ njalo ngizasigcwalisa isifungo engasenza kuyihlo u-Abrahama+ ngathi: 4 ‘Ngizakwandisa inzalo yakho* ibe njengezinkanyezi zamazulu.+ Ngizanika inzalo yakho* wonke amazwe la+ njalo ngenzalo yakho* zonke izizwe zomhlaba zizazitholela isibusiso,’+

25 Kumele likhonze uJehova uNkulunkulu wenu+ njalo uzabusisa ukudla kwenu lamanzi enu.+ Ngizasusa ukugula phakathi kwenu.+
