KumaHebheru 11:8-16

Ngokukholwa, u-Abhrahama walalela ebizwa ukuba aphume aye endaweni abezakuyamukeliswa, ibe yifa lakhe; waphuma engazi lapho eya khona. Ngokukholwa, waba ngumfokazi ezweni lesithembiso, izwe angalazi, ehlala emathendeni beno-Isaka noJakobe, ababeyizindlalifa kanye naye zaleso sithembiso, ngokuba wayebheke umuzi onezisekelo, omdwebimumo nomakhi wawo kunguNkulunkulu. Ngokukholwa, naye uSara uqobo wathola amandla okukhulelwa esedlulelwe yisikhathi, ngokuba wathi ukholekile owethembisayo. Ngakho-ke koyedwa, owayesefana nonjengosewafa, kwavela abangangezinkanyezi zezulu ngobuningi, bengangesihlabathi esisogwini lolwandle esingenakubalwa. Bonke laba bafa bekholiwe, bengazamukeliswanga izithembiso, kodwa bezibonile, bazithakasela zikude, bevumile ukuthi bangabafokazi nezihambi emhlabeni. Ngokuba abasho kanjalo, babonakalisa ngokusobala ukuthi bafuna izwe lakubo. Uma kambe bebecabanga ngalelo ababephuma kulo, bebeyakuba nethuba lokubuyela kulo. Kepha manje balangazelela lelo elihle kunalelo, okungukuthi elasezulwini. Ngakho uNkulunkulu akanamahloni ngabo ukuba abizwe ngoNkulunkulu wabo, ngokuba ubalungisele umuzi.
