Genesis 12
1 The Lord told Abram, “Leave your country, your relatives, your family home, and travel to the country I'm going to show you.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Abram, “Tuyak fahla liki facl sum, mwet inkul sin papa tomom, ac sou nukewa lom saya, ac som nu ke sie acn ma nga ac fah akkalemye nu sum.
2 I will make you the ancestor of a great nation and I will bless you. I will make sure you have a great reputation and that you are a blessing to others.
Nga ac fah sot fwilin tulik puspis nutum, ac elos ac fah mau sie mutunfacl lulap. Nga ac akinsewowoye kom ac oru inem in pwengpeng. Ouinge kom ac fah sie mwe insewowo.
3 I will bless those who bless you; I will curse those who curse you. Everyone on earth will be blessed through you.”
Nga fah akinsewowoyalos su akinsewowoye kom, Tusruk nga ac selngawelos su selngawi kom. Ac nga fah akinsewowoye mutanfahl nukewa keim.”
4 So Abram left following the Lord's instructions, and Lot went with him. Abram was 75 when he left Haran.
Ke Abram el yac itngoul limekosr, el mukuila liki acn Haran, oana ke LEUM GOD El fahk elan oru. Ac Lot el welul som.
5 With him went his wife Sarai, his nephew Lot, together with all the possessions they had collected and the people that had joined them in Harran. They left for the land of Canaan. When they arrived there,
Abram el eisal Sarai mutan kial, Lot wen nutin tamulel lal, ac mwe kasrup nukewa, wi mwet kulansap nukewa su elos tuh eis ke elos muta Haran, ac mukuiyak som nu in facl Canaan. Ke elos sun acn Canaan,
6 Abram traveled on through the country as far as a place called Shechem, stopping at the oak tree of Moreh. At that time the country was occupied by Canaanites.
Abram el fufahsryesr in acn we nwe ke el sun sak oal Moreh, sie acn mutal in siti Shechem. (In pacl sac mwet Canaan srakna muta fin facl sac.)
7 The Lord appeared to Abram and said, “I'm going to give this land to your descendants.” So Abram built an altar to the Lord there because that was where the Lord appeared to him.
LEUM GOD El sikyang nu sel Abram ac fahk nu sel, “Pa inge facl se ma nga ac sang nu sin fwilin tulik nutum.” Na Abram el etoak loang se nu sin LEUM GOD, su tuh sikyang nu sel we,
8 Then he moved on to the hill country east of Bethel and set up camp there. Bethel was to the west and Ai to the east. He built an altar to the Lord there and worshiped him.
Tukun pacl sac, el mukuiyak nu eir, nu infulan eol kutulap in siti Bethel, ac tulokunak lohm nuknuk sel inmasrlon Bethel layen roto, ac Ai layen kutulap. El oayapa etoak loang se we ac alu nu sin LEUM GOD.
9 After that he went on his way, heading towards the Negev.
Na el sifilpa fahsr sun acn puspis ke el fahsr in som nu tafunyen eir in acn Canaan.
10 But the land had been hit by famine. So Abram continued on to Egypt, planning to live there because the famine was so bad.
Tusruktu oasr sracl lulap se in acn Canaan su arulana upa, oru Abram el sifil pacna fahsr nu eir nwe ke na el sun acn Egypt, ac muta in aktuktuk we.
11 As he approached Egypt and was about to cross the border, he said to his wife Sarai, “Look, I know what a beautiful woman you are.
Ke el akola in tupalla masrol nu Egypt, el fahk nu sel Sarai, mutan kial, “Kom mutan na oasku se.
12 When the Egyptians see you, they'll say, ‘She's his wife,’ and they'll kill me but not you!
Mwet Egypt ah fin liye kom, elos ac luma mu ma kiuk pa kom, na elos ac uniyuwi ac eiskomla.
13 Tell them you're my sister so I'll be treated well because of you, and my life will be spared for your sake.”
Fahk nu selos mu ma wiuk pa kom, elos in mau tia uniyuwi, a oru wo nu sik.”
14 When Abram arrived in Egypt, the people there saw how beautiful Sarai was.
Ke el utyak nu in acn Egypt, mwet Egypt elos liye lah mutan se kial ah arulana oasku.
15 Pharaoh's officials also noticed and spoke positively about her to Pharaoh. So Sarai was taken to his palace to become one of his wives.
Kutu sin mwet fulat inkul sin tokosra liyalak ac fahkang nu sel tokosra katoiyen mutan sac, pwanang utukla el nu inkul fulat sin tokosra.
16 Pharaoh treated Abram well because of her, giving him sheep and cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.
Ke sripal Sarai, tokosra el oru na wo nu sel Abram, ac kital u in sheep, nani, cow, donkey, camel, ac mwet kohs mukul ac mutan.
17 But the Lord caused Pharaoh and the people in his palace to suffer from terrible diseases because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
Tusruktu ke sripen tokosra el eisalla Sarai, LEUM GOD El supwama mas keok nu facl tokosra ac nu fin mwet inkul fulat sel.
18 So Pharaoh ordered Abram brought to him and said, “What have you done to me? Why didn't you tell me that she was your wife?
Na tokosra el sapla solalma Abram ac siyuk sel, “Mea kom oru nu sik uh? Efu ku kom tia fahk nu sik lah mutan se inge ma kiom?
19 Why did you say, ‘She's my sister,’ and let me take her to become one of my wives? So here's your wife! Take her and leave!”
Efu ku kom fahk mu ma wiom pa el, oru nga usalla kiuk? Pa ingan mutan kiom ah. Usal ac tiok likiyu!”
20 Pharaoh ordered his guards to expel him and his wife from the country, along with everyone with them and all their possessions.
Tokosra el sap mwet lal ah in usalla Abram ac supwalla liki facl sac, wi mutan kial ac ma lal nukewa.
