< Genesis 12 >

1 And the Lord said to Abram, Go forth out of your land and out of your kindred, and out of the house of your father, and come into the land which I will show you.
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 you a great nation, and I will bless you and magnify your name, and you shall be blessed.
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 that bless you, and curse those that curse you, and in you shall all the tribes 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 And Abram went as the Lord spoke to him, and Lot departed with him, and Abram was seventy-five years old, when he went out of Charrhan.
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 Sara his wife, and Lot the son of his brother, and all their possessions, as many as they had got, and every soul which they had got in Charrhan, and they went forth to go into the land of Chanaan.
6 And Abram traversed the land lengthwise as far as the place Sychem, to the high oak, and the Chananites then inhabited 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 the Lord appeared to Abram, and said to him, I will give this land to your seed. And Abram built an altar there to the Lord 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 departed thence to the mountain eastward of Baethel, and there he pitched his tent in Baethel near the sea, and Aggai towards the east, and there he built an altar to the Lord, and called on the name of the Lord.
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 departed and went and encamped in the wilderness.
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 to Egypt to sojourn there, because the famine prevailed 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 Abram drew near to enter into Egypt, Abram said to Sara his wife, I know that you are a fair woman.
Ara rae risiꞌ nusa Masir rala reu ma, nafadꞌe sao na Sarai nae, “Sarai. Ho ia, meulau ma seli.
12 It shall come to pass then that when the Egyptians shall see you, they shall say, This is his wife, and they shall kill me, but they shall save you 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, therefore, I am his sister, that it may be well with me on account of you, and my soul shall live because of you.
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 when Abram entered into Egypt—the Egyptians having seen his wife that she was very beautiful—
De Abram se losa Masir ma, atahori ra rita inaꞌ a meulau na seli.
15 that the princes of Pharao saw her, and praised her to Pharao and brought her into the house of Pharao.
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 they treated Abram well on her account, and he had sheep, and calves, and asses, and menservants, and women-servants, and mules, 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 God afflicted Pharao with great and severe afflictions, and his house, because of Sara, 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 Pharao having called Abram, said, What is this you have done to me, that you did not tell me that she was your 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 Therefore did you say, She is my sister? and I took her for a wife to myself; and now, behold, your wife is before you, take her and go quickly away.
Te mae odꞌi ma! Helaꞌ a mbei na, au sao ala e! Sie, haꞌi mendi e! Dinggoꞌ hela mata ngga!”
20 And Pharao gave charge to men concerning Abram, to join in sending him forward, 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.
