USimakade wathi kuMose: “Hamba, suka kule ndawo, wena nabantu owabakhipha eGibhithe, niye ezweni engafunga ngalo ku-Abhrahama, no-Isaka, noJakobe, ngathi: ‘Ngiyolinika izizukulwane zakho.’ Ngizothuma ingelosi phambi kwakho, ngiwaxoshe amaKhanani, ama-Amori, amaHithi, amaPherizi, amaHivi, namaJebusi. Khuphukani niye ezweni elichichima ubisi noju, kodwa Mina ngeke ngibe phakathi kwenu, ngokuba ningabantu abantamo lukhuni, funa nginiqede nya endleleni.”
