21. | Wathi ukumkani waseSodom, kuAbram, Ndinike abantu, uthabathe impahla. |
22. | Wathi uAbram kukumkani waseSodom, Isandla sam ndisiphakamisele kuYehova uThixo Osenyangweni, uMninimazulu nehlabathi, |
23. | ukuba andiyi kuthabatha nosinga, nokuba ngumtya wembadada, ukuba andiyi kuthabatha kuko konke okwakho; ukuze ungatsho ukuthi, Mna nidimtyebisile uAbram. |
24. | Makungabikho nto iyeyam, kuphela ibe yile nto idliweyo ngabafana, nesabelo samadoda abehamba nam, uAnere, noEshkoli, noMamre; wona makasithabathe isabelo sawo. |
