18 Ngalolo suku uJehova wenza isivumelwano no-Abrama,+ wathi: “Leli zwe ngiyolinika inzalo yakho,+ kusukela emfuleni waseGibhithe kuze kufike emfuleni omkhulu, umfula i-Ewufrathe:+

3 Gogobala kuleli zwe,+ ngizokuba nawe njalo ngikubusise, ngoba wonke la mazwe ngizowanika wena nenzalo yakho,+ futhi ngiyosifeza isifungo sami engasenza ku-Abrahama uyihlo ngithi,+

12 Ngokuqondene nezwe engilinike u-Abrahama no-Isaka, ngizolinika wena, ngiyolinika+ nenzalo yakho+ emva kwakho.”

13 Khumbula u-Abrahama, u-Isaka no-Israyeli izinceku zakho, owazifunga wena kuzo,+ ngokuba uthi kuzo, ‘Ngiyokwandisa inzalo yenu ibe ngangezinkanyezi zamazulu,+ futhi lonke leli zwe engilikhethile ngiyolinika inzalo yenu,+ ukuba ngempela ilidle njengefa kuze kube nini nanini.’”+
