17 Waliva uThixo ilizwi lenkwenkwe. Samemeza isithunywa sikaThixo kuHagare sisemazulwini, sathi kuye, Ùnantoni na, Hagare? Musa ukoyika, ngokuba uThixo ulivile ilizwi lenkwenkwe apho ikhona.
18 Suka ume, uyithabathe inkwenkwe, uyibambe ngesandla; kuba ndiya kuyenza uhlanga olukhulu.
19 UThixo wawavula amehlo akhe, wabona iqula lamanzi; waya wayizalisa intsuba ngamanzi, wayiseza inkwenkwe.
20 UThixo waba nenkwenkwe leyo; yakhula, yahlala entlango, yaba yintoli yakukhula, yahlala entlango yaseParan;
21 unina wayithabathela umfazi ezweni laseYiputa.
22 Kwathi ngelo xesha, wathetha uAbhimeleki, noFikolo umthetheli womkhosi wakhe, kuAbraham, esithi, UThixo unawe entweni yonke osukuba uyenza.
23 Ngoko ndífungele uThixo apha, ukuba akuyi kundixokisa mna, noonyana bam, nenzalo yam; wòthi ngokwenceba endiyenzileyo kuwe, wenze kum, nakwilizwe ophambukele kulo.
