UAbrahama wathi, “ngizakukufungisa uJehova, . . . ukuthi awuyikuthathela indodana yami umfazi emadodakazini amaKhanani engihlezi phakathi kwawo,

⁶ Kungani uAbrahama ayekugcizelela kangaka ukuthi indodana yakhe akufanele ishade nomKhanani? Ngenxa yokuthi amaKhanani ayeyinzalo kaKhanani owayeqalikiswe uNowa. (Genesise 9:25) Ngaphezu kwalokho, amaKhanani ayaziwa ngemikhuba yawo eyonakele, futhi okubaluleke nangaphezulu, ayengamkhulekeli uJehova. (Genesise 13:13; Levitikusi 18:3, 17-28)
