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 events, the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision: “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your very 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.”
But Abram replied, “O Lord GOD, what can You give me, since I remain childless, and the heir 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.”
Abram continued, “Behold, You have given me no offspring, so a servant in my household will be 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.”
Then the word of the LORD came to Abram, saying, “This one will not be your heir, but one who comes from your own body will be your 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 the LORD took him outside and said, “Now look to the heavens and count the stars, if you are able.” Then He told him, “So shall your offspring 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.
Abram believed the LORD, and it was credited to him as 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.”
The LORD also told him, “I am the LORD, who brought you out of Ur of the Chaldeans to give you this land to possess.”
8 Be A: ibala: me amane sia: i, “Hina Gode Ouligisudafa! Na da amo soge lalegagumusa: habodane dawa: ma: bela: ?”
But Abram replied, “Lord GOD, how can I know that I will possess 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 the LORD said to him, “Bring Me a heifer, a goat, and a ram, each three years old, along with a turtledove 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.
So Abram brought all these to Him, split each of them down the middle, and laid the halves opposite each other. The birds, however, he did not cut in half.
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 descended on the carcasses, but 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.
As the sun was setting, Abram fell into a deep sleep, and suddenly great terror and darkness overwhelmed 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.
Then the LORD said to Abram, “Know for certain that your descendants will be strangers in a land that is not their own, and they will be enslaved and mistreated 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.
But I will judge the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will depart with many possessions.
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.
You, however, will go to your fathers in peace and be buried at a ripe 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.
In the fourth generation your descendants will return here, for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet complete.”
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.
When the sun had set and darkness had fallen, behold, a smoking firepot and a flaming torch appeared and passed between the halves of the carcasses.
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.
On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, “To your descendants I have given this land—from the river of Egypt to the great River Euphrates—
19 Amo soge ganodini dunu fi esalebe da Ginaide, Genisaide, Gadamunaide,
the land of the Kenites, Kenizzites, Kadmonites,
20 Hidaide, Belisaide, Lefa: ide,
Hittites, Perizzites, Rephaites,
21 A: moulaide, Ga: ina: naide, Gegasaide amola Yebusaide - amo dunu fi huluane ilia soge, Na da digaga fi ilima imunu.”
Amorites, Canaanites, Girgashites, and Jebusites.”
