10 Deiꞌ Abraham nape naꞌimama God okom napomana naꞌi epen buꞌunai? Anan naliꞌ natopaꞌ alop eaꞌ o ataꞌ owaꞌ neatopaꞌ alop? Anan ina deiꞌ natopaꞌ alopa God naꞌi anan epen buꞌunai, ataꞌ owaꞌ. 11 Fowaꞌ gani Abraham naliꞌ nembaleꞌefa God nofalana epen buꞌunai. Eaꞌ nagiꞌ natopaꞌ alop.* Waf anama natopaꞌ alopanai anona ikwaf God nihiꞌambana naꞌama naꞌi nemaf anama ataꞌ owaꞌ neatopaꞌ alopanai God naꞌi anan epen buꞌunai.

13 Fowaꞌ gani God naꞌi basef endilisimi atom naloma Abraham naꞌi, “Aeꞌ anona nemaf eseꞌena etap hiagoma ineꞌ neloma esis bafasena akusena ineꞌisi wapotiꞌ.”
Naꞌama Abraham ina naila miꞌuli anama God naꞌi nosoꞌ Mosesanai ma deiꞌ naꞌi basef endilisimi nalomana naꞌipana basef amama, ataꞌ owaꞌ. Abraham naliꞌ nembaleꞌefa God deiꞌ nofalana epen buꞌunai naꞌipana basef amama. 14 Anom basef maꞌipapa amama maliꞌi naꞌama maꞌi, Iꞌi epes sila miꞌuli Godi ma sofaꞌ amamaga amama God neaseꞌasami, anona nemaf waf anama mombaleꞌefa Godi nowala eaꞌ basef endilisimi amama God naꞌiam nalomas wapotiꞌ owaꞌ laꞌifim, owaꞌ. 15 Deiꞌ main, miꞌuli anama nawalapa okom wandafunai Godi ma noseꞌas nemanimi isima sosambala basefa miꞌuli anama.

Amama atom deiꞌ God naꞌipana basef amama endilisimi atom buꞌwami ma apeꞌ mogawa endilisi God naꞌipas basef amama wapotiꞌ naꞌi apeꞌ hiapai bafalomapa Abrahami, naseꞌapam etin siꞌi presen.

Anan naliꞌ nembaleꞌefa God nataga bafalomapa naliꞌ endilisi ma apeꞌ hiapai emi egafipa deiꞌ magiꞌ membaleꞌefa God. 17 Siꞌi Baibel naꞌi, God fowaꞌ gani naꞌipa Abraham naꞌi,

Abraham anan bafalomapa apeꞌinai ma naep Godi. Anan nembaleꞌefa God atona naseꞌasa ambal namunai epes sagaꞌi, eaꞌ nofala amamaga hiami ataꞌ owaꞌ meatagai siꞌi mataga mape eaꞌ.
