7 UJehova wasebonakala ku-Abrama wathi: “Ilizwe leli ngizalipha+ izizukulwane zakho.”*+ Ngakho u-Abrama wakha i-alithare kuleyondawo, elakhela uJehova owayebonakale kuye.

18 njalo uMelikhizedekhi+ inkosi yeSalema+ wabuya lesinkwa lewayini futhi wayengumphristi kaNkulunkulu oPhezukonke.+

19 Wasembusisa wathi:

U-Abrama wasemnika okwetshumi kwakho konke.+

6 Ngizakwenza ukuthi uzale abantwana abanengi kakhulu, ngenze ukuthi kuwe kuvele izizwe ezinengi njalo amakhosi azavela kuwe.+

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