< Genesis 13 >

1 So Abram left Egypt and went back into the Negev along with Sarai, Lot, and everyone with them, as well as all their possessions.
Abram el som liki acn Egypt nu epang, nu tafunyen eir in acn Canaan, wi mutan kial ac ma nukewa lal, ac Lot el welul pac som.
2 Abram was very rich, having many herds of livestock and a great deal of silver and gold.
Abram el arulana kasrup ke sheep, nani, cow, ac oayapa silver ac gold.
3 He left the Negev and traveled in stages to Bethel, back to the place where he'd camped before, between Bethel and Ai.
Na el som liki acn we ac fahsr tui in kais sie acn ke el fahsr in som nu Bethel. El sun acn se inmasrlon Bethel ac Ai, acn se ma el tuh aktuktuk we
4 This was where he'd first built an altar. He worshiped the Lord there as he had done previously.
ac etoak loang se we meet. Na el alu nu sin LEUM GOD we.
5 Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had many flocks, herds, and tents,
Oasr pac sheep, nani, ac cow natul Lot, oayapa oasr sou ac mwet kulansap lal sifacna.
6 so much so that the available land couldn't support both of them—they had so much livestock they couldn't stay together anymore.
Ke ma inge acn in mongo lun kosro uh sufalla eltal in tukeni orekmakin, mweyen arulana pukanten kosro natultal.
7 Abram's and Lot's herdsmen were arguing, and in addition the Canaanites and Perizzites were also living in the land at that time.
Ouinge oasr amei inmasrlon mwet liyaung kosro natul Abram ac mwet liyaung kosro natul Lot. (In pacl sac, mwet Canaan ac mwet Periz srakna muta fin facl sac.)
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please don't let's have arguments between us, or between our herdsmen, because we're family.
Na Abram el fahk nu sel Lot. “Lela nga kom in tia akukuin, oayapa mwet lom ac mwet luk in tia alein, mweyen kut sou se na.
9 You see all this land that's available right in front of you? We have to split up. If you choose to go to the left, I'll go to the right. If you choose to go to the right, I'll go to the left.”
Yolyak facl se oan ye mutasr inge. Ke ma inge, lela kut in fahsrelik. Sulela acn ma kom lungse an, ac nga fah som nu yen lula an.”
10 Lot looked over the whole Jordan valley towards Zoar, and saw that it was well-watered, looking like the Garden of Eden, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)
Lot el ngetot ngetma ac liye lah Infalfal Jordan nufon, fahla na nwe Zoar, arulana yohk kof we, oana ima lun LEUM GOD ku oana facl Egypt. (Pacl se inge ma meet liki LEUM GOD El kunausla siti Sodom ac Gomorrah.)
11 So Lot chose the whole Jordan valley and went east, and the two separated from each other.
Ouinge Lot el sulela Infalfal Jordan nufon lal, ac mukuiyak som nu layen kutulap. Pa ingan luman fahsrelik lal Abram ac Lot.
12 Abram went to live in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled down among the towns in the valley, setting up his tents near Sodom.
Abram el mutana in acn Canaan, ac Lot el som oakwuki inmasrlon siti infalfal uh, ac tulokunak iwen aktuktuk sel fototo na nu Sodom,
13 (The people of Sodom were very wicked, committing terrible sins that offended the Lord.)
yen su mwet we uh koluk ac orekma koluk lain LEUM GOD.
14 After separating from Lot, the Lord told Abram, “Look around you from where you're standing, to the north, south, east, and west.
Tukun Lot el som, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Abram, “Ngetla yen se kom tu we ingan, ac liye akwoye acn nukewa — epang, eir, kutulap ac roto.
15 I'm giving all this land you see to you and your descendants forever.
Acn nukewa ma kom liye ingan, nga ac sot nu sum ac nu sin fwilin tulik nutum, na ac fah ma na lom nwe tok.
16 You will have so many descendants that they'll be like the dust of the earth. If anyone could count dust then they could count the number of your descendants!
Nga ac fah sot tulik na pukanten nutum, su wangin mwet ac fah ku in oakla. Ac fah fisrasr in oaoala puk fin faclu liki tulik nutum!
17 Go and walk through the whole land in all directions because I'm giving it to you.”
Inge fahsr sasla facl se inge nufon, mweyen nga ac sot lom.”
18 So Abram went to live at Hebron, setting up his tents among the oaks at Mamre, where he built an altar to the Lord.
Ke ma inge Abram el srakla iwen aktuktuk lal ac oakiya apkuran nu ke sak oal sunal Mamre in acn Hebron, ac el etoak loang se we nu sin LEUM GOD.
