Genesis 13
1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the wilderness.
Te dongah Abram loh a yuu khaw, anih taengah aka om boeih te khaw, amah taengkah Lot khaw Egypt lamkah Negev la a khuen.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, and silver, and gold.
Te daengah te Abram loh boiva neh, ngun neh, sui nen khaw lutlut boei.
3 And he went [to the place] whence he came, into the wilderness as far as Baethel, as far as the place where his tent was before, between Baethel and Aggai,
Te dongah Negev lamkah a longpueng vaengah amah kah dap a om nah hmuen Bethel la cet. A moecuek vaengah anih kah dap te Bethel neh Ai laklo ah om.
4 to the place of the altar, which he built there at first, and Abram there called on the name of the Lord.
Lamhma ah hmueihtuk hmuen la pahoi a khueh coeng dongah Abram loh BOEIPA ming pahoi a phoei.
5 And Lot who went out with Abram had sheep, and oxen, and tents.
Te vaengah Lot khaw Abram neh puei uh tih boiva saelhung khaw, dap khaw, rhen a puen.
6 And the land was not large enough for them to live together, because their possessions were great; and the land was not large enough for them to live together.
Tedae tun khosak ham te khohmuen amih te noeng voel pawh. Amih rhoi kah khuehtawn khaw muep lo coeng tih tun khosak ham coeng pawh.
7 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle, and the herdmen of Lot's cattle, and the Chananites and the Pherezites then inhabited the land.
Te dongah Abram kah boiva aka dawn rhoek neh Lot kah boiva aka dawn rhoek laklo ah khaw, te vaengah khohmuen kah kho aka sa Kanaan rhoek, Perizzi rhoek nen khaw tuituknah vik om.
8 And Abram said to Lot, Let there not be a strife between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen, for we are brethren.
Te dongah Abram loh Lot te, “Kai laklo neh nang laklo ah, ka boiva aka dawn laklo neh na boiva aka dawn laklo ah khaw tohhaemnah om mai boel saeh. Mamih boeina he tongpa rhoi ni.
9 Behold! is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me; if you [go] to the left, I will go to the right, and if you go to the right, I will go to the left.
Na hmai ah khohmuen a pum la a om pawt moenih a? Kai taeng lamloh hoep uh laeh. Banvoei te na loh atah bantang la ka cet vetih bantang te na loh atah ka banvoei bitni,” a ti nah.
10 And Lot having lifted up his eyes, observed all the country round about Jordan, that it was all watered, before God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, as the garden of the Lord, and as the land of Egypt, until you come to Zogora.
Tedae Lot loh a mik te a huel vaengah Jordan vannaem boeih te tuisuep tangtae bangla boeih a om pah. Yahovah loh a phae hlankah Sodom neh Gomorrah khaw BOEIPA dum bangla, Zoar la a caeh vaengkah Egypt kho bangla a hmuh.
11 And Lot chose for himself all the country round Jordan, and Lot went from the east, and they were separated each from his brother. And Abram lived in the land of Chanaan.
Te dongah Lot loh amah ham te Jordan vannaem boeih te a tuek. Te dongah Lot te khothoeng la puen uh tih a manuca taeng lakah khat neh khat paek uh rhoi.
12 And Lot lived in a city of the neighbouring people, and pitched his tent in Sodom.
Abram tah Kanaan kho ah kho a sak dae Lot tah vannaem kah khopuei rhoek ah kho a sak tih Sodom la puen uh.
13 But the men of Sodom were evil, and exceedingly sinful before God.
Tedae Sodom hlang rhoek tah thae uh tih BOEIPA taengah hlangtholh koek la om uh.
14 And God said to Abram after Lot was separated from him, Look up with your eyes, and behold from the place where you now are northward and southward, and eastward and seaward;
Tedae Lot a nong phoeiah BOEIPA loh Abram te, “Na mik huel lamtah na hmuen lamkah tlangpuei neh tuithim khaw, khothoeng neh tuitunli khaw so laeh.
15 for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your seed for ever.
Tekah khohmuen na hmuh boeih te kumhal duela nang taeng neh na tiingan taengah kam paek ni.
16 And I will make your seed like the dust of the earth; if any one is able to number the dust of the earth, then shall your seed be numbered.
Te dongah na tiingan te diklai kah laipi bangla ka khueh ni. Diklai laipi te hlang loh tae ham a noeng atah nang kah tiingan te a tae thai van ni.
17 Arise and traverse the land, both in the length of it and in the breadth; for to you will I give it, and to your seed for ever.
Khohmuen te nang kan paek ham coeng dongah thoo lamtah khohmuen te a yun long khaw, a daang long khaw, hil lah,” a ti nah.
18 And Abram having removed his tent, came and lived by the oak of Mambre, which was in Chebrom, and he there built an altar to the Lord.
Te dongah Abram te puen uh tih a caeh vaengah Mamre thingnu ah kho a sak. Tekah thingnu te Hebron ah om tih tekah Hebron ah BOEIPA ham hmueihtuk a suem.
