< Genesis 13 >

1 Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.
Aa le nionjoñe boake Mitsraime ao t’i Avrame naho i vali’ey naho ze vara’e iaby, mb’ atimoy añe, vaho nindre ama’e t’i Lote.
2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
Fa nimpañarivo an-kare naho volafoty vaho volamena t’i Avrame.
3 He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
Ie boak’ amy atimoy añe le nionjoñe sikal’ amy Betele, amy namboare’e kibohotse añivo’ i Betele naho i Aý am-pifotora’ey,
4 to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on the LORD’s name.
amy nañoreña’e kitrely valoha’ey. Teo ty nikanjia’ i Avrame ty tahina’ Iehovà.
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, herds, and tents.
Nanam-pirai-troke naho mpirai-lia naho kibohotse ka t’i Lote mpindre fañavelo ama’e.
6 The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together; for their possessions were so great that they could not live together.
Fe tsy nahatsapake iareo roe i taney, hitraofa’ iareo, fa loho bey ty vara’ iareo kanao tsy nahafiharo toboke.
7 There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.
Nifampibozizy amy zao o mpiara-lia-rai’ i Avrameo naho o mpiara’ i Loteo. Nimo­neñe amy taney henane zay o nte-Kanàneo naho o nte-Perizeo.
8 Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.
Aa le hoe t’i Avrame amy Lote, Ee te tsy hifañolañe tika naho o mpiara’oo naho o ahikoo, amy te mpirahalahy tika.
9 Is not the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”
Aa vaho tsy hene miatrek’ azo o taneo? Misitaha amako arè, aa ihe homb’ am-pitàn-kavia mb’eo, le ho mb’an-kavana iraho; ke ihe mb’ am-pitàn-kavana, le izaho mb’ an-kavia.
10 Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
Nampiandra-pihaino t’i Lote, nahatalake te soa fitondrake iaby ty vavatane’ Iordaney eñe manahake ty golobo’ Iehovà, hambañe an-tane Mitsraime amy figodañañe mb’e Tsoare mb’eoy, (taolo’ ty nandrotsaha’ Iehovà i Sedome naho i Amorà).
11 So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one other.
Jinobo’ i Lote i vavatane’ Iordaney iabiy naho nañavelo mb’atiña­nañe mb’eo t’i Lote, ie nifampiria.
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Nimoneñe an-tane Kanàney t’i Avrame vaho nimoneñe amo rova’ i vavataneio t’i Lote vaho nañoren-kiboho mb’e Sedome añe.
13 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against the LORD.
Ni‑lo tsereke o nte-Sedomeo, vata’e bei-hakeo am’ Iehovà.
14 The LORD said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,
Hoe t’Iehovà amy Avrame, naho fa nisitaha’ i Lote. Ampiandrao fihaino henaneo vaho mitalakesa boak’ amo iambesara’oo mañavaratse naho mañatimo naho maniñana vaho mañandrefa;
15 for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.
amy te hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’o kitro-añ’ afe’eo ze hene tane isa’o.
16 I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.
Hampiraeko ami’ty lembo’ ty tane toy o tarira’oo; aa naho mahaiake ty debo’ ty tane toy t’indaty le mete hiaheñe ka o tarira’oo.
17 Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”
Miongaha arè le rangao ty andàva’ o taneo naho ty am-pohe’e, fa hene hatoloko azo.
18 Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.
Aa le nasi’ i Avrame ty kijà’e le nimb’eo naho nitobe amo hatae jabajaba’ i Mamrè e Khebroneo vaho nañoreñe kitrely am’ Iehovà.
