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.
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 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.
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 I will bless those who bless you; I will curse those who curse you. Everyone on earth will be blessed through you.”
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 So Abram left following the Lord's instructions, and Lot went with him. Abram was 75 when he left Haran.
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 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,
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.
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 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.
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 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.
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 After that he went on his way, heading towards the Negev.
Basa naa ma, ana lali-laliꞌ mamanaꞌ, losa rae Negeb sia Kanaꞌan seriꞌ ona.
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.
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 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.
Ara rae risiꞌ nusa Masir rala reu ma, nafadꞌe sao na Sarai nae, “Sarai. Ho ia, meulau ma seli.
12 When the Egyptians see you, they'll say, ‘She's his wife,’ and they'll kill me but not you!
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 Tell them you're my sister so I'll be treated well because of you, and my life will be spared for your sake.”
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 When Abram arrived in Egypt, the people there saw how beautiful Sarai was.
De Abram se losa Masir ma, atahori ra rita inaꞌ a meulau na seli.
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.
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 Pharaoh treated Abram well because of her, giving him sheep and cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, 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 But the Lord caused Pharaoh and the people in his palace to suffer from terrible diseases because of Sarai, 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 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?
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 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!”
Te mae odꞌi ma! Helaꞌ a mbei na, au sao ala e! Sie, haꞌi mendi e! Dinggoꞌ hela mata ngga!”
20 Pharaoh ordered his guards to expel him and his wife from the country, along with everyone with them and all their possessions.
Basa ma maneꞌ a parenda pagau nara, fo oi hendi Abram, no sao na, ma sudꞌiꞌ a saa nara mia nusaꞌ naa.
