"And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing ... and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed " (Genesis 12:2-3).
12:2 Oo quruun weyn baan kaa dhigi doonaa, oo waan ku barakadayn doonaa, magacaagana waan weynayn doonaa; oo waxaad noqon doontaa barako; 12:3 Oo waan barakadayn doonaa kuwa kuu duceeya, kan ku habaarana waan habaari doonaa: oo qabiilooyinka dhulka oo dhammu adigay kugu barakoobi doonaan.
