મેં તેને પસંદ કર્યો છે તેથી તે તેના દીકરાઓને તથા તેના પછી થનાર તેના પરિવારને એવું સૂચન કરશે કે, તેઓ ન્યાયી થવા તથા ન્યાય કરવાને યહોવાહનો માર્ગ અપનાવે, તે માટે કે ઇબ્રાહિમ સંબંધી મેં જે કહ્યું છે, તે તેઓ પાળે.”

क्योंकि मैं जानता हूँ, कि वह अपने पुत्रों और परिवार को जो उसके पीछे रह जाएँगे, आज्ञा देगा कि वे यहोवा के मार्ग में अटल बने रहें, और धार्मिकता और न्याय करते रहें, ताकि जो कुछ यहोवा ने अब्राहम के विषय में कहा है उसे पूरा करे।”
