< Genesis 12 >

1 Forsothe the Lord seide to Abram, Go thou out of thi lond, and of thi kynrede, and of the hous of thi fadir, and come thou in to the lond which Y schal schewe to thee;
Le Abram fofo ƒe ku megbe la, Yehowa gblɔ na Abram be, “Ʋu le mia de, gblẽ wò ƒometɔwo ɖi, eye nàyi anyigba si mafia wò la dzi.
2 and Y schal make thee in to a greet folk, and Y schal blisse thee, and Y schal magnyfie thi name, and thou schalt be blessid;
Ne èwɔ esia la, mana nàzu dukɔ gã aɖe fofo. Mayra wò, eye mana nàxɔ ŋkɔ. Gawu la, àhe yayra vɛ na ame geɖewo.
3 Y schal blesse hem that blessen thee, and Y schal curse hem that cursen thee; and alle kynredis of erthe schulen be blessid in thee.
Mayra ame siwo ayra wò la, eye maƒo fi ade ame sia ame si aƒo fi ade wò la. Woayra xexea me blibo la ɖe tawò.”
4 And so Abram yede out, as the Lord comaundide hym, and Loth yede with hym. Abram was of `thre scoor yeer and fiftene whanne he yede out of Aran.
Ale Abram ʋu le wo de abe ale si Yehowa gblɔ nɛ ene. Ekplɔ Lot ɖe asi. Ɣe ma ɣi la, Abram xɔ ƒe blaadre-vɔ-atɔ̃ esi wòdzo le Haran.
5 And he took Saray, his wijf, and Loth, the sone of his brother, and al the substaunce which thei hadden in possessioun, and the men whiche thei hadden bigete in Aran; and thei yeden out that thei `schulen go in to the loond of Chanaan. And whanne they camen in to it,
Ekplɔ srɔ̃a, Sarai kple eƒe tɔgãyɔvi Lot ɖe asi, eye wòtsɔ kesinɔnu siwo katã wòkpɔ le Haran, nyiwo kple kluviwo siaa dzoe heyi Kanaan.
6 Abram passide thorou the lond til to the place of Sichem, and til to the noble valey. Forsothe Chananei was thanne in the lond.
Esime wonɔ mɔ zɔm to Kanaanyigba dzi la, woɖo teƒe aɖe le Sikem gbɔ. Wotɔ ɖe ati gã aɖe te le More. Kanaantɔwo nɔ anyigba la dzi ɣe ma ɣi.
7 Sotheli the Lord apperide to Abram, and seide to hym, Y schal yyue this lond to thi seed. And Abram bildide there an auter to the Lord, that apperide to hym.
Yehowa ɖe eɖokui fia Abram, eye wògblɔ be, “Matsɔ anyigba sia ana wò dzidzimeviwo.” Abram ɖi vɔsamlekpui aɖe ɖe afi ma hena ŋkuɖoɖo ale si Yehowa ɖe eɖokui fiae le afi ma la dzi.
8 And fro thennus he passide forth to the hil Bethel, that was ayens the eest, and settide there his tabernacle, hauynge Bethel fro the west, and Hay fro the eest. And he bildide also there an auter to the Lord, and inwardli clepide his name.
Le esia megbe la, Abram dzo le afi sia, eye wòɖo ta anyigbeme lɔƒo, heyi tonyigba si le Betel le ɣetoɖoƒe kple Ai le ɣedzeƒe la dome. Etu agbadɔ kple vɔsamlekpui ɖe afi sia, eye wòdo gbe ɖa na Yehowa.
9 And Abram yede goynge and goynge forth ouer to the south.
Ale wòyi mɔzɔzɔ dzi ɖɔɖɔɖɔ henɔ anyigbeme yim, henɔ tɔtɔm ɖe teƒewo ɖo ta Negeb.
10 Sotheli hungur was maad in the lond; and Abram yede doun in to Egipt, to be a pilgrime ther, for hungur hadde maistrie in the lond.
Dɔwuame sesẽ aɖe nɔ anyigba la dzi ɣe ma ɣi, ale Abram yi be yeanɔ Egipte.
11 And whanne he was nyy to entre in to Egipt, he seide to Saray, his wijf, Y knowe that thou art a fair womman,
Ke esi wògogo Egipte la, egblɔ na Sarai be wòagblɔ na ame sia ame be ye nɔvinyɔnue yenye! “Èdze tugbe ŋutɔ.
12 and that whanne Egipcians schulen se thee, thei schulen seie, it is his wijf, and thei schulen sle me, and `schulen reserue thee.
Ne Egiptetɔwo kpɔ wò la, woagblɔ be, ‘Srɔ̃ae nye nyɔnu sia, mina míawu ŋutsu la ekema míaxɔ nyɔnu la aɖe!’
13 Therfor, Y biseche thee, seie thou, that thou art my sistir, that it be wel to me for thee, and that my lijf lyue for loue of thee.
Ke ne ègblɔ be nɔvinyee yenye la, Egiptetɔwo axɔm nyuie le tawò, eye womawum o!”
14 And so whanne Abram hadde entrid in to Egipt, Egipcians sien the womman that sche was ful fair; and the prynces telden to Farao, and preiseden hir anentis him;
Le nyateƒe me esi woɖo Egipte la, ame sia ame ɖi ɖase le eƒe tugbedzedze ŋu.
15 and the womman was takun vp in to the hous of Farao.
Esi fia ƒe subɔlawo kpɔe la, wokafu eƒe tugbedzedze na Fia Farao, eye wokplɔe yi ɖe Farao ƒe aƒe me.
16 Forsothe thei vsiden wel Abram for hir; and scheep, and oxun, and assis, and seruauntis, and seruauntessis, and sche assis, and camels weren to hym.
Farao tsɔ nunana geɖewo, alẽwo, nyiwo, tedziwo, kluviwo, kosiwo kple kposɔwo na Abram ɖe srɔ̃a Sarai ta.
17 Forsothe the Lord beet Farao and his hous with moste veniaunces, for Saray, the wijf of Abram.
Ke Yehowa na dɔvɔ̃ sesẽ aɖe va ge ɖe Farao ƒe aƒe me le Abram srɔ̃ Sarai ƒe aƒea me nɔnɔ ta.
18 And Farao clepide Abram, and seide to hym, What is it that thou hast do to me? whi schewidist thou not to me, that sche was thi wijf?
Ale Farao yɔ Abram va eɖokui gbɔ, eye wòka mo nɛ gblɔ be, “Nu kae nye esi nèwɔ ɖe ŋunye? Nu ka ta mègblɔ nam be ye srɔ̃e o ɖo?
19 for what cause seidist thou, that sche was thi sister, that Y schulde take hir in to wife to me? Now therfor lo! thi wiif; take thou hir, and go.
Nu ka ta nèɖe mɔ nam be maɖee, eye nègblɔ nam be ye nɔvie ɖo? Kpɔ ɖa, kplɔ srɔ̃wò dzoe le afi sia enumake!”
20 And Farao comaundide to men on Abram, and thei ledden forth hym, and his wijf, and alle thingis that he hadde.
Ale Farao nya wo, eye wòna asrafowo dzɔ Abram, srɔ̃a kple woƒe amewo kple woƒe kesinɔnuwo katã ŋu va se ɖe esime wodo go le eƒe anyigba dzi.
