ગુજરાતીઉત્પત્તિ ૨૧:૨૩
તે માટે હવે અહીં મારી આગળ ઈશ્વરની હજૂરમાં કહે કે, મારી સાથે, મારા દીકરા સાથે અને મારા વંશજો સાથે, તું દગો નહિ કરે. વળી તારી સાથે જ વિશ્વસનીય કરાર કર્યો છે તે પ્રમાણે મારી સાથે આ દેશ કે જેમાં તું રહે છે તેમાં વર્તજે.”
हिन्दीउत्पत्ति २१:२३
इसलिए अब मुझसे यहाँ इस विषय में परमेश्वर की शपथ खा कि तू न तो मुझसे छल करेगा, और न कभी मेरे वंश से करेगा, परन्तु जैसी करुणा मैंने तुझ पर की है, वैसी ही तू मुझ पर और इस देश पर भी, जिसमें तू रहता है, करेगा।”
