9 Yasisithi kuye: Ngithathela ithokazi elileminyaka emithathu, lesibhuzikazi esileminyaka emithathu, lenqama eleminyaka emithathu, lejuba, lephuphu lenkwilimba.
Higeno Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno asami'ne, Tagufa kafu hu'nesia bulimakao a' anenta afu'ene, tagufa kafu hu'nesia a' anenta memene, tagufa kafu hu'nesia ve lama afu'ene, tare maho namararene, zamavarenka Nagrite eno.
10 Wasesisa kuyo zonke lezizinto, wazidabula phakathi, wabeka leyo laleyongxenye yazo ikhangelene lenye; kodwa inyoni kazidabulanga.
Higeno Abramu'a kema hia kante anteno ana zagaramina aheno rutne tare hugagufeno kanti kama nenteno, namararena taga osu aga' ante'ne.
11 Inyoni ezidla inyama zasezisehlela phezu kwezidumbu, uAbrama wasezixotshela khatshana.
Ana zana tumpa namamo'za kete'za nenaku neageno Abramu'a keteno harige'za vu'naze.
12 Kwasekusithi ilanga selitshona, ubuthongo obukhulu bajuma uAbrama; khangela-ke, uvalo lomnyama omkhulu lwehlela phezu kwakhe.
Hagi zage ufregeno avukoko higeno Abramu'a mase himare'neno, avanama keana, tusi'a hanimo agrira refitente'negeno negeno koro hu'ne.
13 Yasisithi kuAbrama: Yazi lokwazi ukuthi inzalo yakho izakuba yisihambi elizweni elingeyisilo layo, njalo bazabasebenzela, besebebahlupha iminyaka engamakhulu amane.
