< Genesis 12 >
1 Then Yahweh said to Abram, “Leave this country where you are now living. Leave your father’s clan and his family. Go to a land that I will show you.
Karon miingon si Yahweh kang Abram, “Lakaw ug biya sa imong nasod, gikan sa imong kaparyentihan, ug gikan sa panimalay sa imong amahan, ngadto sa yuta nga akong ipakita kanimo.
2 I will cause your descendants to become a large nation. I will bless you and cause you to become (famous/highly esteemed). What I do for you will be a blessing to others.
Himoon ko ikaw nga dakong nasod, panalanginan ko ikaw, himoon ko nga bantogan ang imong ngalan, ug mahimo kang panalangin.
3 I will bless those who (bless/ask God to do good things for) you, and I will (curse/ask God to punish) those who do evil things to you. And because of what you do, groups of people all over the earth will receive blessings (OR, people will wish that God will bless others as much as he has blessed you).”
Panalanginan ko kadtong magapanalangin kanimo, apan si bisan kinsa kadtong magpakaulaw kanimo akong pagatunglohon. Pinaagi kanimo mapanalanginan ang tanang pamilya sa kalibotan.”
4 So Abram left Haran [town], as Yahweh told him to do. Abram was 75 years old when he left there along with his wife, Sarai, and his nephew, Lot.
Busa milakaw si Abram, sama sa giingon ni Yahweh nga iyang himoon, ug miuban kaniya si Lot. 75 ka tuig na ang edad ni Abraham sa dihang mibiya siya sa Haran.
5 Abram also took along all the possessions and slaves that they had accumulated/acquired in Haran [town], and they left there and went to Canaan land.
Gidala ni Abram si Sarai, nga iyang asawa, ug si Lot nga anak sa iyang igsoon nga lalaki, lakip na ang tanan nilang mga kabtangan nga ilang natigom, ug ang katawhan nga ilang nakuha sa Haran. Unya mibiya sila aron moadto ngadto sa yuta sa Canaan, ug miabot sila sa yuta sa Canaan.
6 In Canaan they traveled as far as Shechem [town] and camped by a huge tree called the tree of Moreh. The Canaan people-group were still living in that land.
Milabay si Abram niadtong yutaa hangtod nahiabot sa Shekem, ngadto sa tugas sa More. Nianang panahona ang mga Canaanhon ang nagpuyo didtong yutaa.
7 Then Yahweh appeared to Abram and said to him, “I will give this land to your descendants.” Then Abram built a stone altar to offer a sacrifice to Yahweh because Yahweh had appeared to him.
Mipakita si Yahweh kang Abram, ug miingon, “Ihatag ko kining yutaa sa imong mga kaliwat.” Busa si Abram nagbuhat ug halaran alang kang Yahweh, nga nagpakita kaniya.
8 From Shechem, Abram and his family traveled to the hills that were east of Bethel [town]. Bethel [town] was to the west of where they set up their tent, and Ai [town] was further to the east. There he built another stone altar and offered a sacrifice and worshiped Yahweh there.
Gikan didto mibalhin siya sa kabungtoran sa sidlakan sa Betel, nga diin nagtukod siya ug barongbarong, diha ang Betel sa kasadpan ug ang Ai paingon sa Sidlakan. Didto nagtukod siyag halaran alang kang Yahweh ug gitawag ang ngalan ni Yahweh.
9 Then they left there and started traveling south to the Negev [Desert].
Unya si Abram mipadayon sa iyang panaw, padulong sa Negeb.
10 There was (a famine/very little food to eat) in Canaan, so they went south to live in Egypt for a while.
Adunay kagutom didto nga yuta, busa milugsong si Abram padulong sa Ehipto ug mipuyo didto, kay hilabihan ang kagutom nianang yutaa.
11 Just as they were about to enter Egypt, Abram said to his wife Sarai, “Listen, I know that you are a very beautiful woman.
Sa dihang hapit na siya makasulod sa Ehipto, miingon siya kang Sarai nga iyang asawa, “Tan-awa ako, nasayod ako nga maanyag kaayo ka nga babaye.
12 When the people in Egypt see you, they will say, ‘This woman is his wife!’ and they will kill me in order to get you, but they will not kill you.
Sa dihang ang mga Ehiptohanon makakita kanimo moingon sila nga, 'Mao kini ang iyang asawa', ug ila akong patyon, apan buhion ka nila.
13 So I ask you to tell them that you are my sister, so that because of you telling them that, they will (spare my life/not kill me).”
Ingna sila nga igsoon ko ikaw, aron nga ayohon nila ako pagtagad tungod kanimo, ug aron nga luwason nila ang akong kinabuhi tungod kanimo.”
14 And as soon as they arrived in Egypt, the people in Egypt saw that his wife was indeed very beautiful.
Nahitabo kadto sa dihang misulod si Abram ngadto sa Ehipto, nakita sa mga Ehiptohanon si Sarai nga maanyag kaayo.
15 When the king’s officials saw her, they told the king how beautiful she was. And they took her to the king’s palace.
Nakita siya sa mga prinsipe ni Paraon ug gidayeg nila siya ngadto kang Paraon, ug gidala siya ngadto sa panimalay ni Paraon.
16 The king treated Abram kindly because of Sarai, and he gave Abram many sheep and cattle and donkeys and male and female slaves and camels.
Giatiman pag-ayo ni Paraon si Abram tungod kaniya, ug gihatagan siya ug karnero, baka, lalaki nga mga asno, mga sulugoon nga lalaki, mga sulugoon nga babaye, babaye nga mga asno, ug mga kamelyo.
17 But because the king had taken Sarai, Abram’s wife, Yahweh caused the king and the others in his household to be inflicted with terrible diseases.
Unya gipaantos ni Yahweh si Paraon ug ang iyang panimalay uban sa dako nga hampak tungod kang Sarai, nga asawa ni Abram.
18 When the king realized why that was happening, he summoned Abram and said to him, “Why did you do this to me? Why did you not tell me that she was your wife?
Unya gipatawag ni Paraon si Abram, ug miingon; “Unsa ba kining gibuhat mo kanako? Nganong wala ka man nagsulti nga imo man diay siyang asawa?
19 Why did you lie, saying she is your sister, with the result that I took her to be my wife? You should not have done that! So now take your wife, leave here and go!”
Nganong miingon ka man, 'Igsoon nako siya', aron ba kuhaon nako siya ug himoon nakong asawa? Busa karon, ania ang imong asawa. Dal-a siya, ug lakaw.”
20 Then the king told his officials/servants to take Abram and his wife and all his possessions out of Egypt.
Unya gimandoan ni Paraon ang iyang mga tawo mahitungod kaniya, ug gipalakaw nila siya, uban sa iyang asawa ug ang tanan nga anaa kaniya.
