3. U-Abrahama wavuka ekuseni, wabophela imbongolo yakhe, wathatha ezimbili ezincekwini zakhe, no-Isaka indodana yakhe; wacanda izinkuni zomnikelo obuzakushiswa, wasuka waya endaweni uNkulunkulu abemtshele yona.
4. Ngosuku lwesithathu u-Abrahama waphakamisa amehlo akhe, wayibona indawo isekude.
5. U-Abrahama wathi ezincekwini zakhe: “Hlalani lapha nembongolo; mina nomfana sisaya laphaya, sikhuleke, sibuye size kini.”
6. U-Abrahama wathatha izinkuni zomnikelo obuzakushiswa, wazibeka phezu kuka-Isaka indodana yakhe, waphatha esandleni sakhe umlilo nomese; bahamba bobabili kanyekanye.
