Nā, ka mea atu a Ihowā ki a Āperama, “Haere atu i tōu whenua, i roto i ōu whanaunga, i te whare anō hoki o tōu pāpā, ki te whenua e whakaaturia e ahau ki a koe. 
Ā, ka meinga koe e ahau hei iwi nui, ka manaakitia anō koe e ahau, ka whakanuia anō hoki tōu ingoa; ā, ka waiho koe hei manaakitanga. 
Ā, ka manaaki ahau i te hunga e manaaki ana i a koe, ka kanga hoki i te tangata e kanga ana i a koe; ā, māu ka manaakitia ai ngā hapū katoa o te whenua.” 
Nā, haere ana a Āperama, pērā ana me tā Ihowā i kōrero ai ki a ia; i haere tahi anō a Rota i a ia. Ā, e whitu tekau mā rima ngā tau o Āperama i tōna hekenga mai i Harana. 
Nā, ka tango a Āperama i a Harai, i tāna wahine rāua ko Rota tama a tōna teina, i ō rātou rawa katoa i whakaemi ai, i ngā mea ora katoa i whiwhi ai rātou ki Harana; ā, whakatika ana rātou, haere ana ki te whenua o Kanaana. Nā, ka tae rātou ki te whenua o Kanaana. 
Nā, ka tika a Āperama nā waenganui o te whenua ki te wāhi o Hekeme, ki te oki i More. I taua whenua anō te Kanaani i taua wā. 
Nā, ka puta a Ihowā ki a Āperama, ka mea, “Ka hoatu e ahau tēnei whenua ki tōu uri.” Nā, ka hangā e ia tētahi āta ki reira mā Ihowā i puta mai nei ki a ia. 
Nā, ka neke atu ia i reira ki te maunga i te rāwhiti o Pētēre, ā, ka whakatū i tōna tēneti; ko Pētēre ki te hauāuru, ko Hai ki te rāwhiti. I hangā anō e ia tētahi āta mā Ihowā ki reira, ā, karanga ana ki te ingoa o Ihowā. 
Nā, ka tūria atu e Āperama, me te neke haere whaka te tonga. 
Ā, he matekai tō te whenua; ā, ka haere a Āperama ki raro, ki Īhipa, ki reira noho ai; he nui hoki te matekai o te whenua. 
Ā, i a ia ka tata te tae ki Īhipa; ka mea ia ki a Harai, ki tāna wahine, “Nanā, e mōhio ana ahau he wahine ātaahua koe ki te titiro atu; 
nā, ākuanei kei te kitenga o ngā Īhipiana i a koe, ka mea rātou, ‘Ko tāna wahine tēnei’; ā, ka patua ahau e rātou, ka whakaora hoki i a koe. 
Me kī koe, nē, he tuahine koe nōku? Kia whiwhi ai ahau ki te pai i a koe; ā, kia ora ai tōku wairua i a koe.” 
Ā, i te taenga o Āperama ki Īhipa, ka titiro ngā Īhipiana ki te wahine, he tino ātaahua. 
Ka kite hoki ngā rangatira a Parao i a ia, ka kōrero whakamihi mōna ki a Parao, ā, ka kawea te wahine rā ki te whare o Parao. 
Nā, ka atawhai ia i a Āperama, he mea hoki mō te wahine; ā, ka riro i a ia he hipi, he kau, he kāihe toa, he pononga tāne, he pononga wāhine, he kāihe uha, he kāmera. 
Nā, ka whiua e Ihowā a Parao rātou ko tōna whare, he nui ngā pakinga, mō Harai wahine a Āperama. 
Nā, ka karanga a Parao ki a Āperama, ka mea, “He aha tēnei mahi āu ki ahau? He aha koe tē kōrero mai ai ki ahau ko tāu wahine ia? 
Nā te aha koe i mea ai, ‘Ko tāku tuahine ia’ i tango ai ahau i a ia hei wahine māku? Nā, tāu wahine, tangohia, haere.” 
Nā, ka whakatūpato a Parao ki ngā tāngata, kei aha atu ki a ia; ā, tukua atu ana ia e rātou, me tāna wahine, me āna mea katoa.
