1Ihlabathi liphela libe lulwimi-nye, lizwi linye. 2Ekuphumeni kwawo empumalanga, afumana entlango ezweni laseShinare; bahlala khona. 3Bathetha omnye komnye besithi, Hambani, senze izitena, sizitshise. Baba nezitena endaweni yamatye, nodaka lodongwe. 4Bathi ke, Hambani, sizakhele umzi, nemboniselo encopho yayo iye kufika emazulwini; masizenzele igama, hleze sisasazeke ehlabathini. 5Wehla uYehova ukuze asibone isixeko nenqaba leyo babeyakhile oonyana babantu. 6Yathi iNkosi: Yabona, abantu bayinto enye, kwaye bonke bantetho-nye; baqala ke ukwenza, ngoku ke abayi kukhatywa nto abacinga ukuyenza. 7Masihle, siyidube khona intetho yabo, ukuze bangevani ukuthetha; 8Waza uYehova wabachithachitha kwalapho ehlabathini lonke, yaye bayeka ukusakha eso sixeko. 9Ngenxa yoko kwathiwa igama lawo yiBhabheli; ngenxa yokuba kulapho uYehova waluduba khona ulwimi lwehlabathi lonke, yaye uYehova wabachithachitha besuka apho ehlabathini lonke. 10Yiyo le ke inzala kaShem: uShem ubeminyaka ilikhulu ezelwe; 11uShema waphila iminyaka engamakhulu amahlanu emva kokuba ezele uArpakishadi, wazala oonyana neentombi. 12uArpakishadi wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu anamihlanu, wazala uSara. 13uArpakishade wahlala emveni kokuzala kwakhe uShela iminyaka emakhulu mane anamithathu, wazala oonyana neentombi. 14uSala wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu, wazala uHebhere. 15Emva kokuzalwa kukaHebhere uSla waphila iminyaka engamakhulu amane anantathu, wazala oonyana neentombi. 16uHebhere wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu anamine, wazala uPelege. 17Emva kokuzala kwakhe uPelege uHebhere waphila iminyaka engamakhulu amane anamashumi mathathu, waza wazala oonyana neentombi. 18uPelege wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu, wazala uRehu. 19uPelege wahlala emveni kokuzala kwakhe uRehu iminyaka emakhulu mabini anesithoba, wazala oonyana neentombi. 20uRehu wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu anamibini, wazala uSerugi. 21uRehu wahlala emveni kokuzala kwakhe uSerugi iminyaka emakhulu mabini anesixhenxe, wazala oonyana neentombi. 22uSerugi wahlala iminyaka emashumi mathathu, wazala uNakore. 23uSerugi wahlala emveni kokuzala kwakhe uNakore iminyaka emakhulu mabini, wazala oonyana neentombi. 24uNakore wahlala khona iminyaka emashumi mabini anesibhozo yedwa, wazala uTera. 25Emva kokuzala kwakhe uTera, uNahore waphila iminyaka elikhulu elineshumi elinesithoba, waza wazala oonyana neentombi. 26uTera wahlala iminyaka emashumi asixhenxe, wazala uAbram, noNakore, noHaran. 27Yiyo le ke inzala kaTera: uTera wazala uAbram, noNakore, noHaran; uHaran wazala uLote. 28uHaran wafa ngaphambi kukayise uTera kwilizwe awazalelwa kulo, iUre yamaKhaledi. 29uAbram noNakore bazeka abafazi; igama lomka-Abram belinguSarayi; Igama lomkaNakore lalinguMilika, intombi kaHaran, uyise kaMilka, uyise kaIska. 30Ke uSarayi ebengazali; wayengenamntwana. 31uTera wamthabatha uAbram unyana wakhe, noLote, unyana kaHaran, unyana wonyana wakhe, noSarayi, umolokazana wakhe, umka-Abram unyana wakhe; bemka nabo eUre yamaKaledi, baya ezweni lakwaKanan; Bafika kwaHaran, bahlala khona. 32Imihla kaTera yaba yiminyaka emakhulu mabini anamihlanu; wafa uTera kwaHaran.
