24 Agbɛnɛ Abraham egbɔ, eda yɛ afii amli, ni Yehowa ejɔɔ Abraham yɛ nɔ fɛɛ nɔ mli.+

9 Kɛkɛ ni tsulɔ lɛ kɛ enine wo enuŋtsɔ Abraham shuɔ shishi, ni ekã lɛ kitã yɛ sane nɛɛ he.+
10 No hewɔ lɛ, tsulɔ lɛ ŋɔ enuŋtsɔ lɛ afukpɔŋɔi lɛ nyɔŋma ni eyi mli, ni eŋɔ enuŋtsɔ lɛ nibii kpakpai srɔtoi fɛɛ eko kɛtee. Kɛkɛ ni eyi mli etee Mesopotamia, kɛtee Nahor maŋ lɛ mli.
