16 Sarayi umfati wa-Abrama bekangabatfoli bantfwana,+ kodvwa bekanencekukati lengumGibhithe lebitwa ngekutsi nguHagari.+ 2 Ngaleso sizatfu, Sarayi watsi ku-Abrama: “Ngite bantfwana, ngobe Jehova ungivalile kutsi ngitale. Ngicela kutsi ulale nencekukati yami, mhlawumbe nje ingangitalela bantfwana.”+ Ngako Abrama wakulalela loko lobekushiwo nguSarayi.

9 Ngesikhatsi Leya abona kutsi bekangasabatfoli bantfwana, watsatsa Zilpha incekukati yakhe wamniketa Jakobe kutsi abe ngumfati wakhe.+

18 Lawo ngemadvodzana aZilpha,+ incekukati Labani layinika Leya indvodzakati yakhe. Sebabonkhe bantfwana labatalela Jakobe bebangu-16.
