U-Abrama eseneminyaka engamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye nesishiyagalolunye uJehova wabonakala ku-Abrama, wathi kuye: “NginguNkulunkulu uSomandla; hamba phambi kwami futhi uphelele.

Igama lakho alisayikuthiwa u-Abrama, kepha igama lakho liyakuba ngu-Abrahama; ngoba ngikwenze uyise wezizwe ezinengi.

Ngiyakumisa isivumelwano sami phakathi kwami nawe nenzalo yakho emva kwakho ezizukulwaneni zayo sibe yisivumelwano esiphakade, ngibe nguNkulunkulu kuwe nakuyo inzalo yakho emva kwakho.

Mina-ke, bheka, isivumelwano sami sikuwe, futhi uyakuba nguyise wezizwe eziningi.

UNkulunkulu wathi: Impela umkakho uSara uzakukuzalela indodana; uyakuqamba igama layo ngokuthi u-Isaka, ngimise isivumelwano sami naye, sibe yisivumelwano esiphakade nenzalo yakhe emva kwakhe.

Ngiyakunika wena nenzalo yakho emva kwakho izwe ogogobele kulo, izwe lonke laseKhanani, libe yifa laphakade; njalo ngizakuba nguNkulunkulu wabo.

U-Abrahama wawa ngobuso bakhe, wahleka, wathi enhliziyweni yakhe: “Oneminyaka eyikhulu uyakuzalelwa na? noSara oneminyaka engamashumi ayisishiyagalolunye uyakuzala na?

UNkulunkulu wathi ku-Abrahama: “USarayi umkakho, ungambizi ngokuthi uSarayi, kepha igama lakhe liyakuba nguSara.”

Kumelwe isoke inyama yejwabu lakho; futhi kuyoba yisibonakaliso sesivumelwano phakathi kwaMi nawe.

Kodwa ngizamisa isivumelwano sami loIsaka, uSara azakuzalela yena ngalesisikhathi esimisiweyo ngomnyaka olandelayo.

Oyizinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili makasokwe phakathi kwenu, yonke indodana ezizukulwaneni zenu, ezelwe endlini noma ethengwe ngemali kunoma yimuphi umfokazi ongeyena owenzalo yakho. Ozelwe endlini yakho nothengwa ngemali yakho makasokwe; isivumelwano sami siyakuba senyameni yenu njengesivumelwano esiphakade.
