< Genesis 12 >

1 Now Jehovah said to Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, to the land that I will show thee.
Leleꞌ naa, LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ no Abram nae, “Abram! Lao hela bobꞌonggi ma, ama ma ume na, ma kambo ma. Misiꞌ mamanaꞌ esa, dei fo Au utudꞌu neu nggo.
2 And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great, and be thou a blessing.
Dei fo Au fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu nggo. Tititi-nonosi mara, boe ramaheta, dadꞌi leo manaseliꞌ losa atahori ra rahine nara ma. Ma ho dadꞌi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ soaꞌ neu atahori feaꞌ.
3 And I will bless those who bless thee, and he who curses thee I will curse. And in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed.
Dei fo Au fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu atahori mana fee papala-babꞌanggiꞌ neu nggo. Te Au huku-doki atahori mana fee huku-dokiꞌ neu nggo. Rena malolole! Dei fo basa leo sia raefafoꞌ hambu papala-babꞌanggiꞌ laoꞌ mia nggo.”
4 So Abram went as Jehovah had spoken to him, and Lot went with him. And Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed out of Haran.
Abram too hitu nulu lima ma, ana no sao na Sarai, ma odꞌi na anan Lot, ma basa hata-heto na, no basa atahori mana ue-tao nara fo ana hambu mia kambo Haran. Basa ma, ara lao hela Haran, de risiꞌ mamanaꞌ fo LAMATUALAIN nafadꞌe neu e. Ara laoꞌ rakandoo, losa mamanaꞌ esa, naran Kanaꞌan.
5 And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran, and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan. And they came into the land of Canaan.
6 And Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.
Losa naa, Abram lao rereoꞌ rae naa, losa deka no kamboꞌ esa, naran Sikem. De ara leo raꞌatataaꞌ deka no hau huu ineꞌ esa sia More. Leleꞌ naa, atahori Kanaꞌan ra feꞌe leo sia naa.
7 And Jehovah appeared to Abram, and said, I will give this land to thy seed. And there he built an altar to Jehovah, who appeared to him.
LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Aon neu Abram sia naa. Ana nae, “Au fee nusaꞌ ia neu tititi-nonosi ma.” Basa ma Abram lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ soaꞌ neu LAMATUALAIN, mana natudꞌu Aon sia naa.
8 And he moved from there to the mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. And there he built an altar to Jehovah, and called upon the name of Jehovah.
Basa ma, Abram se lali risiꞌ leteꞌ sia ona, de leo raꞌatataaꞌ sia kambo Betel no kambo Ai taladꞌa nara. Ana o lutu mbatu mei tutunu-hohotuꞌ esa, de beꞌutee neu LAMATUALAIN sia naa.
9 And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the South.
Basa naa ma, ana lali-laliꞌ mamanaꞌ, losa rae Negeb sia Kanaꞌan seriꞌ ona.
10 And there was a famine in the land. And Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there, for the famine was severe in the land.
Faiꞌ sa boe, ndoe-laꞌas manaseliꞌ mia rae Kanaꞌan. Naa de Abram se lao rakandoo risiꞌ seriꞌ ona, losa nusa Masir. Ara leo raꞌatataaꞌ sia naa.
11 And it came to pass, when he came near to enter into Egypt, that he said to Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou are a fair woman to look upon.
Ara rae risiꞌ nusa Masir rala reu ma, nafadꞌe sao na Sarai nae, “Sarai. Ho ia, meulau ma seli.
12 And it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife. And they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.
Te mete ma atahori Masir ra rita ho meulau ma ia, ara tao risa au, huu au ia, ho sao ma. No taꞌo naa, ara sao rala nggo.
13 Say, I pray thee, thou are my sister, that it may be well with me for thy sake, and that my soul may live because of thee.
De malole lenaꞌ, mufadꞌe se mae, au ia, ho aꞌa ma. Naa fo, ara nda tati-mbau risa au sa, te ara maloleꞌ ro au, huu ho.”
14 And it came to pass, that, when Abram came into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.
De Abram se losa Masir ma, atahori ra rita inaꞌ a meulau na seli.
15 And the princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh. And the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
Pagau mane Masir ra rita e ma, ara koa inaꞌ meulau na mia maneꞌ a mata na. Basa ma, ara rendi e nisiꞌ maneꞌ a ume na.
16 And he dealt well with Abram for her sake. And he had sheep, and oxen, and he-donkeys, and men-servants, and maid-servants, and she-donkeys, and camels.
De maneꞌ a malolole no Abram, huu Sarai. Ana fee mudꞌaꞌ Abram bibꞌi lombo, hiek, sapi, keledei, no banda onta. Ana o fee ate touꞌ ma inaꞌ boe.
17 And Jehovah plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Te huu maneꞌ a haꞌi nala atahori sao na nisiꞌ ume na, naa de LAMATUALAIN huku-doki mataꞌ-mataꞌ neu e no atahori nara.
18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou have done to me? Why did thou not tell me that she was thy wife?
Dei de maneꞌ a noꞌe Abram ma natane nae, “Abram! Ho tao au taꞌo bee ia? Saa de nda mufadꞌe mae, inaꞌ ia, sao ma sa!?
19 Why did thou say, She is my sister, so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore behold thy wife. Take her, and go thy way.
Te mae odꞌi ma! Helaꞌ a mbei na, au sao ala e! Sie, haꞌi mendi e! Dinggoꞌ hela mata ngga!”
20 And Pharaoh gave men command concerning him. And they brought him on the way, and his wife, and all that he had.
Basa ma maneꞌ a parenda pagau nara, fo oi hendi Abram, no sao na, ma sudꞌiꞌ a saa nara mia nusaꞌ naa.
