< Genesis 20 >

1 And Abraham journeys from there toward the land of the south, and dwells between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourns in Gerar;
Abraham el som liki acn Mamre nu ke sie ipin acn eir in Canaan, ac muta inmasrlon acn Kadesh ac Shur. Tok, ke el muta in acn Gerar,
2 and Abraham says concerning his wife Sarah, “She is my sister”; and Abimelech king of Gerar sends and takes Sarah.
el fahk mu Sarah, mutan kial, el ma loul. Ke ma inge Tokosra Abimelech lun acn Gerar el sap utuku Sarah nu yorol.
3 And God comes to Abimelech in a dream of the night and says to him, “Behold, you [are] a dead man, because of the woman whom you have taken—and she married to a husband.”
Sie fong ah, God El sikyang nu sel Abimelech in sie mweme ac fahk, “Kom ac misa, mweyen kom eisla mutan se inge. El payuk tari.”
4 And Abimelech has not drawn near to her, and he says, “Lord, do you also slay a righteous nation?
Tusruktu Abimelech el soenna kalukyang nu yurin mutan sac, na el fahk, “Leum God, wangin mwetik! Ya kom ac kunausyula ac mwet luk?
5 Has he not himself said to me, She [is] my sister! And she, even she herself, said, He [is] my brother; in the integrity of my heart, and in the innocence of my hands, I have done this.”
Abraham el sifacna fahk mu tamtael se lal pa mutan sac, ac Sarah el fahk oapana. Nga oru ma inge ke nunak nasnas, ac wangin kih luk.”
6 And God says to him in the dream, “Indeed, I have known that in the integrity of your heart you have done this, and I withhold you, even I, from sinning against Me, therefore I have not permitted you to come against her;
God El topkol in mweme sac, “Aok, nga etu lah kom oru ke nunak na nasnas lom. Ouinge nga tuh karingin kom liki in orekma koluk lainyu, ac tia lela kom in kalukyang nu yorol.
7 and now send back the man’s wife, for he [is] inspired, and he prays for you, and you live; and if you do not send back, know that dying you die, you and all that you have.”
Tusruktu inge, kom folokonang mutan sac nu sin mukul tumal. El mwet palu se, ac el ac fah pre keim tuh kom in tia misa. A kom fin tia folokunulang, nga fahk kom in etu lah kom ac misa — kom ac mwet lom nukewa.”
8 And Abimelech rises early in the morning, and calls for all his servants, and speaks all these words in their ears; and the men fear exceedingly;
Toang na in lotu tok ah, Abimelech el pangoneni mwet fulat lal nukewa ac fahkang nu selos ma sikyak uh, ac elos arulana tuninfongla ke sangeng.
9 and Abimelech calls for Abraham and says to him, “What have you done to us? And what have I sinned against you, that you have brought on me, and on my kingdom, a great sin? Works which are not done you have done with me.”
Na Abimelech el solalma Abraham ac siyuk sel, “Mea kom oru nu sesr uh? Mea koluk nga orala nu sum pwanang kom use mwe lokoalok se inge nu fuk ac nu fin tokosrai luk? Tiana wo kutena mwet in oru lumah se ma kom oru nu sik inge.
10 Abimelech also says to Abraham, “What have you seen that you have done this thing?”
Efu ku kom oru ouinge?”
11 And Abraham says, “Because I said, Surely the fear of God is not in this place, and they have slain me for the sake of my wife;
Abraham el topuk, “Nga tuh tiana nunku mu ac oasr mwet yenu su etu in sunakin God, pwanang nga tuh sangeng mu elos ac uniyuwi ac eisla mutan kiuk uh.
12 and also, she is truly my sister, daughter of my father, only not daughter of my mother, and she becomes my wife;
Pwayena lah el ma wiuk. Acn se nutin papa tumuk ah pa el, tusruktu tia nutin nina kiuk ah, ac nga payukyak sel.
13 and it comes to pass, when God has caused me to wander from my father’s house, that I say to her, This [is] your kindness which you do with me: at every place to where we come, say of me, He [is] my brother.”
Ouinge ke God El supweyula liki papa tumuk ah nu in facl saya inge, nga tuh fahk nu sel Sarah, ‘Kom ku in akkalemye inse pwaye lom nu sik ke kom fahk nu sin mwet nukewa lah nga tamulel lom.’”
14 And Abimelech takes sheep and oxen, and servants and handmaids, and gives to Abraham, and sends back his wife Sarah to him;
Na Abimelech el folokunulang Sarah nu sel Abraham, ac in pacl sac pacna el sang sheep ac cow natul, ac mwet kulansap lal.
15 and Abimelech says, “Behold, my land [is] before you, where it is good in your eyes, dwell”;
El fahk nu sel Abraham, “Facl se inge nufon ma luk. Mutana yen kom lungse muta we.”
16 and to Sarah he has said, “Behold, I have given one thousand pieces of silver to your brother; behold, it is to you a covering of eyes, to all who are with you”; and by all this she is reasoned with.
El fahk nu sel Sarah, “Nga asang nu sin tamulel lom sie tausin ipin silver in akpwayei nu sin mwet lom nukewa lah kom suwosna. Elos nukewa fah etu lah wangin tafongla lom.”
17 And Abraham prays to God, and God heals Abimelech and his wife, and his handmaids, and they bear:
Na Abraham el pre nu sin God, ac God El akkeyalla Abimelech ac oayapa mutan kial ac mutan kulansap lal nukewa, tuh elos in ku in isus,
18 for YHWH restraining had restrained every womb of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah, Abraham’s wife.
mweyen LEUM GOD El tuh kaliya wet lun mutan nukewa in lohm sel Abimelech ke sripal Sarah, mutan kial Abraham.
