Genesis 15
1 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.
Hathnukkhu, Abram koe BAWIPA e lawk vision lahoi ka tho e teh, Abram, taket hanh kai teh nange bahling lah ka o, na tawkphu hmu hane a len poung telah atipouh.
2 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?
Hatei Abram ni, Oe Bawipa Jehovah, ca tawn laipalah ka o e na hmu nahlangva, bangmaw na poe han. Im e râw kacoekung teh Damaskas tami Eliezer doeh telah atipouh.
3 And Abram said, Behold, thou have given no seed to me. And, lo, a man born in my house is my heir.
Hahoi Abram ni khenhaw! kai ca na poe hoeh. Ka im kaawm e ni doeh râw a coe toe telah bout atipouh.
4 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.
BAWIPA e lawk Abram koe ka tho e teh, hete tami kaawm e ni nange râw coe mahoeh telah atipouh.
5 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.
Hahoi Abram hah alawilah a hrawi teh, kalvan lah khenhaw! âsi na touk thai pawiteh touk haw, hot patetlah na catoun ka pungdaw sak han.
6 And he believed in Jehovah, and he reckoned it to him for righteousness.
Abram ni BAWIPA a yuem dawkvah, ahnie a yuemnae hah a lannae lah a khoe pouh.
7 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.
Hahoi kai ni hete ram poe hane hoi coe sak hane ka ngai dawk doeh Khaldean taminaw a onae Ur kho hoi nang kahrawikung kai teh BAWIPA doeh telah atipouh.
8 And he said, O lord Jehovah, how shall I know that I shall inherit it?
Hatei ahni ni Bawipa Jehovah, hete bangtelah hoi maw ka coe han tie ka panue han telah atipouh.
9 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.
BAWIPA ni Abram koe a dei pouh e teh, kum thum touh e maito, kum thum touh e hmaela, kum thum touh e tutan buet touh âbakhuca hoi bakhuca buet touh thokhai loe atipouh.
10 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.
Hote hnonaw pueng ahni koe a thokhai pouh teh a lungui hoi a sei teh avoivang lah a hruek. Hatei tava teh sei hoeh.
11 And the birds of prey came down upon the carcasses, and Abram drove them away.
Hote moinaw koevah langtanaw a tho navah Abram ni a pâlei.
12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram. And, lo, a horror of great darkness fell upon him.
Hatei kanî a khup toteh, Abram teh mat a i. Hahoi khenhaw! puenghoi hmonae ni a tho sin teh roumkalue.
13 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.
Hathnukkhu BAWIPA ni Abram koe, na ca catounnaw ni ayânaw e ram dawk imyin lah ao awh vaiteh, kum 400 touh thung rektapnae hoi san lah ao awh han tie kamcengcalah panuek.
14 And also I will judge that nation, whom they shall serve, and afterward they shall come out with great substance.
Hatei ahnimanaw san lah ka hno e taminaw kai ni lawk ka ceng han. Hathnukkhu hnopai moikapap hoi a tâco awh han.
15 But thou will go to thy fathers in peace; thou will be buried in a good old age.
Nang teh mintoenaw koe karoumcalah na cei vaiteh matawng lahoi na pakawp awh han.
16 And in the fourth generation they shall come here again, for the iniquity of the Amorite is not yet full.
Hateiteh a se palinae dawk hete ram dawk bout a ban awh han. Bangkongtetpawiteh Amornaw ni thoesaknae kuep sak lah awm hoeh rah, telah atipouh.
17 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.
Kanî a khup teh kho bout a hmo torei teh hmaikhu tâconae hlaam hoi hmai paangnae hmaiim teh moi tâtueng e rahak yuengyoe a kâhlai.
18 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:
Hote hnin dawk BAWIPA ni Abram hoi lawkkamnae a sak teh Izip palang koehoi palang kalenpounge Euphrates totouh,
19 the Kenite, and the Kenizzite, and the Kadmonite,
Ken tami, Kene tami, Kadmon tami,
20 and the Hittite, and the Perizzite, and the Rephaim,
Hit tami, Periz tami, Rephaim tami,
21 and the Amorite, and the Canaanite, and the Girgashite, and the Jebusite.
Amor tami, Kanaan tami, Girgashite taminaw hoi Jebusit taminaw e ram, na ca catounnaw ka poe toe, telah atipouh.
