Genesis 13
1 Then Abram went vp from Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him toward the South.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩambata akiuma Misiri agĩthiĩ Negevu, arĩ na mũtumia wake na indo ciothe iria aarĩ nacio, na Loti agĩthiĩ hamwe nake.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattell, in siluer and in golde.
Aburamu nĩatongete mũno na ũtonga wa mahiũ, na wa betha, na wa thahabu.
3 And he went on his iourney from ye South toward Beth-el, to the place where his tent had bene at ye beginning, betweene Beth-el and Haai,
Kuuma kũu Negevu nĩathiire kũndũ na kũndũ o nginya agĩkinya Betheli, o harĩa aambĩte hema yake rĩa mbere gatagatĩ ka Betheli na Ai,
4 Vnto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the Name of the Lord.
na hau nĩho aakĩte kĩgongona ihinda rĩa mbere. Na Aburamu agĩkaĩra rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova ho.
5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had sheepe, and cattell and tentes,
Na rĩrĩ, Loti, ũrĩa matwaranaga na Aburamu, o nake aarĩ na ndũũru cia mbũri, na cia ngʼombe, na ndungata nyingĩ.
6 So that the land coulde not beare them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they coulde not dwell together.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio bũrũri ũcio ndũngĩahotire kũmaigania ũrĩithio marĩ hamwe, nĩ tondũ indo ciao ciarĩ nyingĩ mũno, ũndũ matangĩahotire gũikarania hamwe.
7 Also there was debate betweene ye heardmen of Abrams cattell, and the heardmen of Lots cattell. (and the Canaanites and the Perizzites dwelled at that time in the land.)
Na nĩ kwagĩire ngũĩ gatagatĩ ka arĩithi a Aburamu na arĩithi a Loti. Akaanani na Aperizi o nao maatũũraga o bũrũri-inĩ ũcio hĩndĩ ĩyo.
8 Then saide Abram vnto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, betweene thee and me, neither betweene mine heardmen and thine heardmen: for we be brethren.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩĩra Loti atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũtige kũgĩa na ngũĩ gatagatĩ gaitũ nawe, kana gatagatĩ ka arĩithi aku na arĩithi akwa, nĩ tondũ tũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ĩmwe.
9 Is not the whole land before thee? depart I pray thee from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will goe to the right: or if thou goe to the right hand, then I will take the left.
Githĩ bũrũri ũyũ wothe ndũrĩ mbere yaku? Reke tũtigane. Wathiĩ mwena wa ũmotho, na niĩ ngũthiĩ mwena wa ũrĩo; wathiĩ mwena wa ũrĩo, na niĩ ngũthiĩ mwena wa ũmotho.”
10 So when Lot lifted vp his eyes, he saw that all the plaine of Iorden was watered euery where: (for before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorah, it was as the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest vnto Zoar)
Loti nĩatiirire maitho, akĩbaara, akĩona atĩ kĩaragana gĩothe kĩa Jorodani kĩarĩ na maaĩ maingĩ, gĩgakĩhaana o ta mũgũnda ũrĩa wa Jehova, na o ta bũrũri wa Misiri, ũrĩa ũngʼetheire Zoari. (Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩ mbere ya Jehova kũnũha Sodomu na Gomora.)
11 Then Lot chose vnto him all the plaine of Iorden, and tooke his iourney from the East: and they departed the one from the other.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Loti agĩĩthuurĩra kĩaragana kĩa Jorodani gĩothe na akiumagara erekeire irathĩro. Andũ acio eerĩ magĩtigana:
12 Abram dwelled in the lande of Canaan, and Lot abode in the cities of the plaine, and pitched his tent euen to Sodom.
Aburamu agĩtũũra bũrũri wa Kaanani, nake Loti agĩtũũra matũũra-inĩ ma kĩaragana kĩu, akĩamba hema ciake hakuhĩ na Sodomu.
13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and exceeding sinners against the Lord.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Sodomu maarĩ aaganu, na makehagĩria Jehova mũno.
14 Then the Lord saide vnto Abram, (after that Lot was departed from him) Lift vp thine eyes nowe, and looke from the place where thou art, Northward, and Southward, and Eastwarde, and Westward:
Aburamu na Loti maatigana-rĩ, Jehova akĩĩra Aburamu atĩrĩ, “Ta tiira maitho maku na igũrũ ũrĩ o hau ũrĩ, ũrore mwena wa gathigathini na gũthini, irathĩro na ithũĩro.
15 For all the land, which thou seest, will I giue vnto thee and to thy seede for euer,
Bũrũri ũrĩa wothe ũkuona nĩngũkũhe ũtuĩke waku, na wa rũciaro rwaku nginya tene.
16 And I will make thy seede, as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seede be numbred.
Nĩngaatũma rũciaro rwaku rũingĩhe o ta rũkũngũ rwa thĩ, na kũngĩkorwo kũrĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota gũtara rũkũngũ rwa thĩ-rĩ, o na rũciaro rwaku no rũgĩtarĩke.
17 Arise, walke through the land, in ye length thereof, and breadth thereof: for I will giue it vnto thee.
Ũkĩra ũthiĩ, ũtuĩkanie bũrũri ũyũ ũraihu waguo na wariĩ waguo, tondũ nĩngũkũhe guo.”
18 Then Abram remoued his tent, and came and dwelled in the plaine of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and builded there an altar vnto ye Lord.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩambũra hema ciake, agĩthiĩ gũtũũra hakuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya mĩgandi ya Mamure kũu Hebironi, na agĩakĩra Jehova kĩgongona hau.
