18 Ngelangelo uJehova wenza isivumelwano+ no-Abramu, wathi: “Inarha+ le ngizoyinikela iinzukulwana zakho, kusukela emlanjeni weGibhide ukuya emlanjeni omkhulu, umlambo iYufrathe.+

3 Hlala enarheni ekungasi ngeyakho le.+ Ngizokuba nawe, ngikubusise, ngiphe wena neenzukulwana zakho iinarhezi+ begodu ngizosiphetha isivumelwano engasenza noyihlo u-Abrahama:+

12 Inarha engayinikela u-Abrahama no-Isaka ngizoyipha wena neenzukulwana zakho.”+

13 Khumbula iinceku zakho u-Abrahama, u-Isaka no-Israyeli owafunga kizo wathi: ‘Ngizokwenza iinzukulwana zenu zibe zinengi njengeenkwekwezi zezulwini+ begodu ngizokunikela iinzukulwana zenu yoke inarha le ukwenzela bona ibe ngeyazo unomphela.’”+
