17 U-Abrama wathi eseleminyaka engu-99 uJehova wabonakala kuye wathi: “NginguNkulunkulu uSomandla. Hamba ezindleleni zami, utshengise ukuthi umsulwa.*

8 Kanti njalo ilizwe ohlezi kulo ungowezizweni+ ngizalinika wena lenzalo yakho ezalandela* ngemva kwakho, lonke nje ilizwe leKhenani. Lizakuba ngelabo kokuphela njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo.”+

9 UJehova uzazixotsha phambi kwenu+ izizwe ezinkulu lezilamandla. Phela kuze kube lamuhla+ akulamuntu owenelise ukumelana lani.

18 UJehova wasusa bonke abantu kanye lama-Amori ayehlala elizweni leli. Ngakho lathi sizakhonza uJehova ngoba unguNkulunkulu wethu.”
