5 Ngokholo uEnoki wafuduselwa emazulwini ukuba angaboni kufa; akaba nakufunyanwa ke, ngenxa enokuba uThixo wamfudusayo; kuba ngaphambi kokufuduswa kwakhe, wangqinelwa ukuba umkholise kakuhle uThixo.
6 Ke, lungekho ukholo, akunakubakho ukumkholisa kakuhle; kuba lowo uzayo kuThixo, umelwe kukukholwa ukuba ukho, nokuba ungumvuzi wabo bamfunayo.
7 Ngokholo uNowa, ehlatyelwe nguThixo ngazo izinto ebezingekabonwa, wathi ngokoyika uThixo wawakha umkhombe wokusindisa indlu yakhe, awathi ngalo waligweba ihlabathi, waba yindlalifa yobulungisa obungokokholo.
8 Ngokholo uAbraham wathi, akubizwa, wakululamela ukuba aphume, aye kuloo ndawo abeza kuyamkela ukuba ibe lilifa; waphuma ke, engazi kakuhle nalapho aya khona.
9 Ngokholo waba ngumphambukeli emhlabeni wedinga, wanga ukowasemzini, ehleli eminqubeni, ndawonye noIsake noYakobi, beziindlalifa zalo elo dinga ndawonye naye;
10 kuba wayewulindele umzi lo uneziseko, ungcibi, umbangi wawo, inguThixo.
11 Ngokholo noSara ngokwakhe wamkela amandla okumisa umzi, waza wazala, liseligqithile ixesha lokuba amithe, ekubeni wambalela ekuthini uthembekile lowo wabekayo ngedinga.
