U-Abramu wakholwa uSomnini. Yena wambalela bona uqotho.

Emva kwesikhathi esithileko ilizwi lakaSomnini lafika ku-Abramu ngesambulo lathi: “Ungesabi Abramu. Ngisihlangu sakho, nomvuzwakho uzaba mkhulu.”

Ngalokho uSomnini wamthatha wamusa ngaphandle kwetende wathi kuye: “Qala phezulu emkayini, ubale iinkwekwezi nakube mbala ungakghona ukuzibala. Sizakuba njalo-ke isizukulwana sakho.”

Yeke ilizwi lakaSomnini leza kuye lathi: “Indoda leyo angekhe ibe yindlalifakho, kodwana indodanakho yeengazi ngiyo ezakuba yindlalifakho.”

USomnini wathi kuye: “Yazi mbala bona iinzukulwana zakho zizakuba ziinkhonzi enarheni engasiyo yazo. Zizakulotjha abantu benarha leyo abazazigandelela iminyaka emakhulu amane.

Kodwana u-Abramu wathi: “Somnini, Somandla, kusizani bona uSomnini angiphe umvuzo njengombana ngizakukhamba ngingakatjhiyi intonga ebandla nje begodu nendlalifa yendlwami angithi ngu-Eliyezeri weDamaseku?”

Khona mhlokho uSomnini wenza isivumelwano no-Abramu wathi: “Ngithembisa ukunikela iinzukulwana zakho inarha le kusukela emlanjeni weGibhide ukuyofika emlanjeni omkhulu, iYufrathe

Kuzakuthi esizukulwaneni sesine, abantwabakho babuye godu lapha ngombana ngesikhatheso izono zama-Amori zizabe sele zifike esilinganisweni esipheleleko.”
