Mui 15
1 Amo hou fa: no, A:ibala: me da Gode sia: esala ba: su ganodini nabi. Gode da amane sia: i, “A: ibala: me! Mae beda: ma! Na da dima Gaga: su esala. Na da dima baligili bidi ida: iwane imunu.”
After these things the word of Jehovah came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram. I am thy shield, thy exceedingly great reward.
2 Be A: ibala: me da bu adole i, “Ouligisu Hina Bagadedafa! Di da nama habodane ima: bela: ? Na da mano hame lai. Na bogosea, na hawa: hamosu dunu, Dama: sagase dunu amo Elia: isa amo da na nana liligi huluane lamu.”
And Abram said, O lord Jehovah, what will thou give me, since I go childless. And he who shall be possessor of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?
3 Amola A: ibala: me amane sia: i, “Di da mano nama hame iba: le, na hawa: hamosu dunu fawane da na nana liligi huluane lamu.”
And Abram said, Behold, thou have given no seed to me. And, lo, a man born in my house is my heir.
4 Amalalu, Hina Gode Ea sia: ema amane misi, “Amo dunu da dia nana liligi hamedafa lamu. Be diagofedafa amo dia da: i hodo hamoi, hi fawane da dia nana liligi lamu.”
And, behold, the word of Jehovah came to him, saying, This man shall not be thine heir, but he who shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5 Gode da A: ibala: me gadili oule asili, amane sia: i, “Muagado ba: legadoma! Gasumuni idima! Be huluane idimu da hamedei.” Amalalu, E da ema amane sia: i, “Dia mano ilia da amo gasumuni ilia idi defele ba: mu.”
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and number the stars, if thou be able to number them. And he said to him, So shall thy seed be.
6 A: ibala: me da Hina Gode dafawaneyale dawa: i galu. Amaiba: le, Gode da A: ibala: me ea hou moloidafa hamoi defele ba: i.
And he believed in Jehovah, and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.
7 E da bu A: ibala: mema amane sia: i, “Na da Hina Godedafa. Na da di Ga: ladia fi moilai bai bagade E, amoga fisili masa: ne, amo soge lalegagumusa: guiguda: oule misi.”
And he said to him, I am Jehovah who brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
8 Be A: ibala: me amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Ouligisudafa! Na da amo soge lalegagumusa: habodane dawa: ma: bela: ?”
And he said, O lord Jehovah, how shall I know that I shall inherit it?
9 Amaiba: le, Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Di bulamagau aseme, goudi amola sibi gawali amo huluane da ode osodoyale baligi, amo gaguli misa. Amola ‘dafe’ sio amola musuni sio gaguli misa.
And he said to him, Take a heifer three years old for me, and a she-goat three years old, and a ram three years old, and a turtle dove, and a young pigeon.
10 A: ibala: me da amo liligi huluane gaguli misini, dogoa oudahida: le, la: idi afae la: idili ligisili, eno afae eno la: idili legei. Be sio e da dogoa hame oudahida: i.
And he took all these for him, and divided them in the midst, and laid each half opposite the other. But he did not divide the birds.
11 Amalalu, gasa bagade sio buhiba eno ilia da amo liligi wamolamusa: misi. Be A: ibala: me da amo sio sefasi.
And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
12 Eso da daloba, A:ibala: me da golai nanabunina asi ba: i. Amoga e da gasi dunasi bagade ba: beba: le, bagadewane beda: i galu.
And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram. And, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him.
13 Amalalu, Hina Gode da ema amane sia: i, “Hou noga: le dawa: ma! Dia fa: no lalelegemu fi da eno dunu ilia soge ganodini, udigili hawa: hamosu dunu agoane esalumu. Ode 400 agoane, ilia da amo soge ganodini se nabawane esalumu.
And he said to Abram, Know of a certainty that thy seed shall be sojourners in a land that is not theirs. And shall serve them, and they shall afflict them four hundred years.
14 Be Na da fa: no ilima se iabe dunu fi ilima se iasu bidi imunu. Dia fi da fa: no amo soge yolesili, gadili masunu. Ilia da liligi bagade gagumu.
And also I will judge that nation, whom they shall serve, and afterward they shall come out with great substance.
15 Be di da ode bagohame esalu, gagoalumu, olofoiwane dia aowalali amoga bu masunu. Dia da: i hodo da bogole, uli dogoi ganodini ba: mu.
But thou will go to thy fathers in peace; thou will be buried in a good old age.
16 Be dia fi da asili, fi biyaduyale fifilai dagosea, ilia da guiguda: bu misunu. A: moulaide dunu ilia wadela: i hou da Na se iasu defei lama: ne amoga hame doaga: iba: le, dia fi da ode agoane aligili, bu misunu.
And in the fourth generation they shall come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.
17 Eso da gudu sa: i dagoi, amola gasi da doaga: loba, ganagu amoga mobi heda: lebe ba: i amola hanu gadodili nene, amo da lai gebo hu dadega: i gilisisu amo ganodini udigili asi.
And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold, a smoking furnace, and a flaming torch that passed between these pieces.
18 Amo esoga, Hina Gode da A: ibala: mema gousa: su hamoi. E amane sia: i, “Soge amo ea defei da Idibidi hano asili hano bagadedafa ea dio amo Iufala: idisi amoga doaga: le, amo soge huluane Na da dia mano fi ilima iaha.
In that day Jehovah made a covenant with Abram, saying, To thy seed I have given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
19 Amo soge ganodini dunu fi esalebe da Ginaide, Genisaide, Gadamunaide,
the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
20 Hidaide, Belisaide, Lefa: ide,
and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
21 A: moulaide, Ga: ina: naide, Gegasaide amola Yebusaide - amo dunu fi huluane ilia soge, Na da digaga fi ilima imunu.”
and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
