4. Wayesesuka u-Abrama, njengalokho uJehova emtshelile; uLoti wahamba naye; u-Abrama wayeneminyaka engamashumi ayisikhombisa nanhlanu mhla ephuma eHarana.
5. U-Abrama wathatha uSarayi umkakhe, noLoti indodana yomfowabo, nempahla yonke ababeyibuthile, nezinceku ababezitholile eHarana; basuka ukuya ezweni laseKhanani; bafika-ke ezweni laseKhanani.
6. U-Abrama wadabula izwe, waze wafika endaweni yaseShekemi nase-okini* laseMore; amaKhanani ayesekhona ezweni.
7. UJehova wabonakala ku-Abrama, wathi: “Leli zwe ngiyakulinika inzalo yakho.” Wamakhela khona i-altare uJehova owayebonakele kuye.
8. Wayesesuka lapho, waya entabeni ngasempumalanga kwaseBethele, wamisa itende lakhe, iBethele lingasentshonalanga ne-Ayi lingasempumalanga; wamakhela khona uJehova i-altare, wakhuleka egameni likaJehova.
9. Ngasemuva u-Abrama wahamba waqonda njalo ngaseningizimu.
10. Kwakukhona indlala ezweni; u-Abrama wehlela eGibithe ukuba agogobale khona, ngokuba indlala yayinzima ezweni.
11. Kwathi esasondela ukungena eGibithe, wathi kuSarayi umkakhe: “Bheka-ke, ngiyazi ukuthi ungowesifazane omuhle, obukekayo.
12. Kuyakuthi ukuba abaseGibithe bakubone, bathi: ‘Ngumkakhe lowo,’ bazakungibulala mina, bakulonde wena.
13. Mawuthi ungudadewethu, ukuze kube kuhle kimi ngenxa yakho, umphefumulo wami uphile ngenxa yakho.”
