Genesis 13
1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the South.
Hathnukkhu Izip ram hoi Abram a tâco teh akalae ram Negev lah vah a yu, a tawn e hnopai pueng hoi a kamthaw teh a hnuk vah Lot hai a kâbang.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
Abram teh saringnaw, suinaw, ngunnaw hoi lutlut a bawi.
3 And he went on his journeys from the South even to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
Negev ram lahoi bout a kamthaw teh ahmaloe pasuek e rim ao na koe lah a cei. Hote im teh Bethel hoi Ai kho rahak vah ao.
4 to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. And Abram called on the name of Jehovah there.
Hmaloe pasuek e khoungroe a saknae hmuen koe bout a pha navah, Abram ni BAWIPA min a kaw.
5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
Abram koe kâbang e Lot hai tunaw, maitonaw hoi rimnaw a tawn van.
6 And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together. For their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.
Ahnimouh roi teh cungtalah kho rei a sak roi hanelah, hote ram ni khout hoeh. Hnopai a tawn roi e ekvoi apap dawkvah cungtalah kho sak thai roi hoeh toe.
7 And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle. And the Canaanite and the Perizzite then dwelt in the land.
Hatdawkvah, Abram e saring kakhoumnaw hoi Lot e saring kakhoumnaw kâpohoehnae ao. Hat nae tueng dawk Kanaan tami hoi Periznaw hote ram dawk ao awh.
8 And Abram said to Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen, for we are brothers.
Hahoi, Abram ni Lot koevah, maimouh roi teh, hmaunawngha roi doeh. Hatdawkvah, nang hoi kai rahak thoseh, nange saring kakhoumnaw hoi kaie saring kakhoumnaw rahak thoseh kâpohoehnae awm hanh naseh.
9 Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me. If the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if the right hand, then I will go to the left.
Na hmalah ram moi ao nahoehmaw. Kai koehoi cet leih. Nang avoilah na cet pawiteh kai aranglah ka cei han telah atipouh.
10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou go to Zoar.
Lot ni a radoung navah, Jordan yawn pueng teh tui ka duk niteh, Jehovah e takha patetlah Sodom hoi Gomorrah kho BAWIPA ni a raphoe hoehnahlan, Zoar lah ceinae Izip ram patetlah a hmu.
11 So Lot chose for himself all the Plain of the Jordan. And Lot journeyed east, and they separated themselves the one from the other.
Hottelah Lot ni Jordan yawn pueng a rawi. Hatdawkvah, Lot teh kanîtholah a cei teh buet touh hoi buet touh a kamphei roi.
12 Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan. And Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Abram teh Kanaan ram dawk kho a sak. Lot teh thingyei yawn dawk e khopuinaw koe kho a sak teh, Sodom kho teng rim a sak.
13 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against Jehovah.
Hatei Sodom kho taminaw teh tamikathout lah ao awh teh, BAWIPA koevah tamikayon poung lah ao awh.
14 And Jehovah said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou are, northward and southward and eastward and westward.
Lot hoi a kamphei hnukkhu BAWIPA ni Abram a kaw teh na onae hmuen koehoi atung, aka, kanîtho, kanîloumlah radoung haw.
15 For all the land which thou see, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed forever.
Na hmu e ram pueng nama hoi na ca catounnaw na poe vaiteh a yungyoe e ram lah ao han.
16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth. So that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then may thy seed also be numbered.
Na ca catounnaw vaiphu patetlah ka pungdaw sak han. Tami ni vaiphu touk thai pawiteh na ca catounnaw hai a touk thai han.
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it, for to thee I will give it.
Thaw nateh ayung lahoi thoseh, adangka lahoi thoseh cet haw, kai ni na poe han.
18 And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to Jehovah.
Hatdawkvah, Abram ni rim a puen teh Hebron kho Mamre kathenkungnaw koe kho a sak teh, BAWIPA hanelah khoungroe a sak pouh.
