Yena wathi : Madoda, bazalwane, nani bobaba, lalelani. UNkulunkulu wenkazimulo wabonakala kubaba u -Abrahama eseMesopotamiya, engakakhi eHarana,

Khona waphuma ezweni lamaKaledi , waya wakha eHarana. Kwathi esefile uyise, uNkulunkulu wamsusa lapho, wamhlalisa kuleli zwe enakhe kulo nina manje.

UThera wathatha u -Abrama indodana yakhe , noLoti indodana kaHarana , indodana yendodana yakhe , noSarayi umalokazana wakhe , umka-Abrama indodana yakhe, waphuma nabo e-Uri lamaKaledi ukuya ezweni laseKhanani; bafika eHarana, bakha khona.

Izinsuku zikaThera zaziyiminyaka engamakhulu amabili nanhlanu ; uThera wafela eHarana.

Wayesesuka u -Abrama, njengalokho uJehova emtshelile ; uLoti wahamba naye; u-Abrama wayeneminyaka engamashumi ayisikhombisa nanhlanu mhla ephuma eHarana.

U-Abrama wathatha uSarayi umkakhe , noLoti indodana yomfowabo , nempahla yonke ababeyibuthile , nezinceku ababezitholile eHarana ; basuka ukuya ezweni laseKhanani; bafika-ke ezweni laseKhanani. Ukufika kuka-Abrama eKhanani

Ngalokho, ndodana yami , lalela izwi lami : vuka ubalekele kuLabani umfowethu eHarana,

UJakobe wayesemuka eBeri Sheba, waya eHarana.
