13 Երբ Աստուած ինձ հանեց իմ հօր տնից, ես կնոջս ասացի. «Այս արդար քայլն արա՛ ինձ համար. ուր էլ գնանք, իմ մասին կ՚ասես, թէ՝ իմ եղբայրն է»:

2539. Verse 8 And in the morning Abimelech rose up early and called all his servants and spoke all these words in their ears; and the men were very much afraid.

'In the morning Abimelech rose up early' means a clear perception and confirmatory light flowing from celestial good. 'And called all his servants' means rational concepts and factual knowledge. 'And spoke all these words in their ears' means an exhortation made to confirmations from this source, even until they should become obedient. 'And the men were very much afraid' means until they should become averse.
