1 Hekah olka phoeiah tah BOEIPA kah olka te mikhlam ah Abram taengla thoeng tih, “Abram rhih boeh. Kai he nang kah photling la ka om, na thapang bahoeng yet ni,” a ti nah.
After these things the word of the LORD came to Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am your shield, and your exceeding great reward.
2 Tedae Abram loh, “Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, kai ham balae na khueh? Kai loh cakol la ka van tih kamah im kah Damasaku hoel Eliezer ni ca la ka pang “a ti nah.
And Abram said, LORD God, what will you give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
3 Te phoeiah Abram loh, “Kai taengah tiingan nan paek moenih he. Te dongah ka im kah camoe ni ka pang coeng he,” a ti nah.
And Abram said, Behold, to me you have given no seed: and, see, one born in my house is my heir.
4 Te vaengah BOEIPA kah olka loh Abram la, “Anih na pang pawt vetih namah ko khui lamkah aka thoeng te tloep na pang eh ne,” a ti nah.
And, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, saying, This shall not be your heir; but he that shall come forth out of your own bowels shall be your heir.
5 Te phoeiah Abram te poeng la a khuen tih, “Vaan ke paelki lamtah aisi ke tae mai lah. Amih te na tae thai atah a thui vanbangla nang kah tiingan la om van ni,” a ti nah.
And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if you be able to number them: and he said to him, So shall your seed be.
6 Te daengah BOEIPA te a tangnah tih anih kah tangnah te duengnah la a nawt pah.
And he believed in the LORD; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
7 Te dongah ni anih taengah, “Hekah khohmuen he nang taengah paek ham neh pang sak ham Khalden Ur lamkah nang aka khuen te BOEIPA kamah ni,” a ti nah.
And he said to him, I am the LORD that brought you out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give you this land to inherit it.
8 Tedae anih loh, “Ka Boeipa Yahovah aw, anih ka pang ni tila metlamlae ka ming eh?” a ti nah.
And he said, LORD God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
9 Te dongah Abram la, “Kai taengah vaitola kum thum neh maae a la kum thum, tutal kum thum, vahu, vahuica hang khuen,” a ti nah.
And he said to him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
10 Te rhoek boeih te a taengla a khuen pah phoeiah a laklung ah a saek. Te phoeiah a kaekvang te a hui taengah a hmaitoh sak tih a tloeng pah. Tedae vathawt te tah saek pawh.
And he took to him all these, and divided them in the middle, and laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
11 Te vaengah vatlung loh maehrhok te a cuk thil tih Abram loh a hawt.
And when the fowls came down on the carcasses, Abram drove them away.
12 Tedae khomik tla tih Abram khaw ih ham a yalh thuk vaengah a soah mueirhih tamyin loh khuk a tlak thil tarha.
And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell on Abram; and, see, an horror of great darkness fell on him.
13 Te phoeiah Abram te, “Na tiingan loh amah khohmuen mueh ah yinlai la om ni. Te vaengah amih te thotat uh vetih kum ya li a phaep uh ni tila ming rhoe ming laeh,” a ti nah.
And he said to Abram, Know of a surety that your seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14 Tedae a thotat pah namtom te khaw kai loh lai ka tloek vetih a hnukah nang kah tiingan tah khuehtawn a yet neh ha pawk uh ni.
And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15 Te vaengah nang tah a then la na sampok neh na pa rhoek taengah na cet vetih sading la n'up uh ni.
And you shall go to your fathers in peace; you shall be buried in a good old age.
16 Tedae tahae due Amori kathaesainah a rhoeh pawt dongah tahae lamkah a khong li vaengah ha bal uh ni.
But in the fourth generation they shall come here again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
17 Khomik tla tih a hmuep a pha vaengah hmaipom hmaikhu neh hmaithoi hmai te maehpoel laklo ah a pak.
And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
18 Tekah khohnin ah BOEIPA loh Abram taengah moi a boh tih, “Tahae kah khohmuen he Egypt tuiva lamkah tuiva puei Perath tuiva duela,
In the same day the LORD made a covenant with Abram, saying, To your seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river, the river Euphrates:
19 Keni te khaw, Kenizzi te khaw, Kadmoni khaw,
The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20 Khitti khaw, Perizzi khaw, Rapha khaw,
And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
21 Amori khaw, Kanaani khaw, Girgashi khaw, Jebusi khaw, nang kah tiingan taengah ka paek coeng,” a ti nah.
And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.
