መጽሐፈ ኩፋሌ 19:9
ስለ ምድር የተሰጠውን ተስፋ—ጌታ ለእርሱና ለዘሩ ከእርሱ በኋላ ይሰጣል የሚለውን—አንዳች አላሰቀረም፤ በዚያ የሞተቷን ለመቀበር ቦታ ብቻ ለመነ፤ ታማኝ መሆኑ ተገኘና እንደ የጌታ ወዳጅ ሆኖ በሰማይ ጽላቶች ላይ ተጻፈ።

He said nothing about the promise of the land which said that the Lord would give it to him and his descendants after him. He pleaded for a place there to bury his dead because he was found to be faithful and was recorded on the heavenly tablets as the friend of the Lord.
