U-Isaka wabuye wemba imithombo yamanzi ababeyimbile ezinsukwini zika-Abrahama uyise , ngokuba ama Filisti ayeyivalile emva kokufa kuka - Abrahama; wayibiza ngamagama ayiqamba ngawo uyise.

Wasuka lapho, wemba omunye umthombo; abaphikisananga ngawo; wabiza igama lawo ngokuthi iRehoboti , wathi: Ngokuba uJehova usenzele indawo ; siyakwanda ezweni. Isithembiso sika-Abrahama siyaphindwa ku-Isaka

Wakha imibhoshongo ehlane , wemba imigodi eminingi yamanzi , ngokuba wayenezinkomo eziningi ehlanzeni nasethafeni , wayenabalimi nabaphathi bezivini ezintabeni naseKarmeli, ngokuba wayengothanda umhlabathi.

Yizwani omunye umfanekiso . Kwakukhona umuntu , umninindlu, owatshala isivini , wasibiyela ngothango , wemba khona isikhamo , wakha isiqongo sokulinda, wasiqashisa kubalimi, waya kwelinye izwe.

Kepha obamukele lalinye waya wemba emhlabathini, wayifihla imali yenkosi yakhe.

Wayeseqala ukukhuluma kubo ngemifanekiso , ethi: Umuntu watshala isivini, wasibiyela ngothango, wemba isikhamo , wakha isiqongo sokulinda , wasiqashisa kubalimi, waya kwelinye izwe.

Ufana nomuntu owayakha indlu , wemba washonisa , wabeka isisekelo edwaleni. Ekufikeni kwesikhukhula umfula washaya leyo ndlu , kepha wawungenamandla okuyinyakazisa, ngokuba yayakhiwe kahle.
