Leli zwi lalilibi kakhulu emehlweni ka-Abrahama ngenxa yendodana yakhe.

Wayesethi: Sondeza kimi , ngidle inyamazane yendodana yami ukuba umphefumulo wami ukubusise . Wayeseyisondeza kuye, wadla; wayisa kuye iwayini, waphuza.

Naye wenza isilovela, wasiyisa kuyise; wathi kuyise: Ubaba makavuke, adle inyamazane yendodana yakhe ukuba umphefumulo wakho ungibusise.

UHamori wakhuluma nabo , wathi: Inhliziyo yendodana yami uShekemi iyabambelela endodakazini yenu; ake nimuphe yona, ibe ngumkakhe.

Wayibona, wathi: Yiyo ingubo yendodana yami ; isilwane esibi simdlile ; yebo, uJosefa udatshuliwe nokudatshulwa.

ukuze utshele indodana yakho ezindleben i nendodana yendodana yakho lokho engikwenzele iGibithe , nezibonakaliso zami engizenzile phakathi kwabo, nize nazi ukuthi nginguJehova.

Ungambuli ubunqunu bendodakazi yendodana yakho n oma obendodakazi yendodakazi yakho ; awuyikwambula ubunqunu babo , ngokuba obabo bungubunqunu bakho.

Ungambuli ubunqunu bowesifazane kanye nobendodakazi yakhe ; ungathathi indodakazi yendodana yakhe , noma indodakazi yendodakazi yakhe ukwambula ubunqunu bayo, ngokuba bayizihlobo; kungukonakala.

ukuze umesabe uJehova uNkulunkulu wakho , ugcine zonke izimiso zakhe nemiyalo yakhe engikuyala ngakho , wena nendodana yakho nendodana yendodana yakho zonke izinsuku zokuhamba kwakho , kwandiswe imihla yakho.

Abantu bakwa-Israyeli bathi kuGideyoni : Sibuse, wena nendodana yakho , nendodana yendodana yakho futhi , ngokuba usisindisile esandleni sakwaMidiyani.

Ubonile yini ukuthi u -Ahabi uyazithoba phambi kwami na ? Ngokuba ezithoba phambi kwami angiyikwehlisa okubi emihleni yakhe ; kepha emihleni yendodana yakhe ngiyakwehlisela indlu yakhe okubi.

Zonke izizwe ziyakumkhonza , yena nendodana yakhe , nendodana yendodana yakhe , kuze kufike isikhathi sezwe lakhe , izizwe eziningi namakhosi amakhulu babakhonzise.

Nibusisiwe, nxa abantu benizond a nanxa benicwasa , benithuka, belilahla igama lenu ngokungathi libi ngenxa yeNdodana yomuntu.

Njengokuba kwenzeka emihleni kaNowa , kuyakuba njalo nasemihleni yeNdodana yomuntu.

Khona uJesu wathi kubo: Ngiqinisile, ngiqinisile ngithi kini: Uma ningayidli inyama yeNdodana yomuntu , niphuze igazi layo , aninakuphila phakathi kwenu.
