< Genesis 13 >

1 Therfore Abram stiede fro Egipt, he, and his wijf, and alle thingis that he hadde; and Loth stiede with hym, to the south coost.
Abram tu firii Misraim. Ɔno, ne yere, Lot, nʼagyapadeɛ ne ne fiefoɔ nyinaa baa Negeb.
2 Forsothe he was ful riche in possessyoun of siluer and of gold.
Saa ɛberɛ no na Abram anya ne ho a ɔwɔ nyɛmmoa, dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ pii.
3 And he turnede ayen bi the weye in which he cam fro the south in to Bethel, `til to the place, in which bifore he hadde sett tabernacle, bitwixe Bethel and Hay,
Ɔfirii Negeb hɔ no, ɔdii atutena ara kɔduruu Bet-El, baabi a ɔdii ɛkan sii ne ntomadan a ɛwɔ Bet-El ne Ai ntam no.
4 in the place of the auter which he made bifore, and inwardli clepide there the name of the Lord.
Ɛhɔ na kane no ɔsii nʼafɔrebukyia. Ɛhɔ nso na ɔkɔɔ so somm Awurade.
5 But also flockis of scheep, and droues of oxun, and tabernaclis weren to Loth, that was with Abram;
Na Lot a ɔne Abram nam no nso yɛ ɔdefoɔ a ɔwɔ nnwan, anantwie ne asomfoɔ bebree.
6 and the lond miyte not take hem, that thei schulden dwelle togidre, for the catel of hem was myche, and thei miyten not dwelle in comyn.
Esiane sɛ saa ɛberɛ no na Abram ne Lot nyinaa anya wɔn ho, na wɔwɔ nnwan, anantwie ne asomfoɔ pii enti, na wɔnsene asase no so.
7 Wherfor also strijf was maad bitwixe the keperis of flockis of Abram and of Loth. Forsothe Chananei and Feresei dwelliden in that lond in that tyme.
Na akasakasa taa baa Abram mmoahwɛfoɔ ne Lot mmoahwɛfoɔ no ntam. Saa ɛberɛ no na Kanaanfoɔ ne Perisifoɔ nso tete asase no so.
8 Therfor Abram seide to Loth, Y biseche, that no strijf be bitwixe me and thee, and bitwixe my scheepherdis and thi scheepherdis; for we ben britheren.
Enti, Abram ka kyerɛɛ Lot sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, mma akasakasa mma me ne wo anaa me mmoahwɛfoɔ ne wo mmoahwɛfoɔ ntam, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛyɛ anuanom.
9 Lo! al the lond is bifore thee, Y biseche, departe thou fro me; if thou go to the left side, Y schal holde the riyt side; if thou chese the riyt side, Y schal go to the left side.
Ɛnyɛ asase no nyinaa na ɛda wʼanim yi? Ma yɛnni mpaapaemu. Sɛ wokɔ benkum a, mɛkɔ nifa, na sɛ wokɔ nifa nso a, mɛkɔ benkum.”
10 And so Loth reiside hise iyen, and seiy aboute al the cuntrei of Jordan, which was al moistid, bifor that the Lord distriede Sodom and Gomorre, as paradis of the Lord, and as Egipt, as men comen in to Segor.
Lot hwɛɛ ne ho hyiaeɛ, hunuu sɛ asase a ɛda Yordan ho no yɛ asasebereɛ. Na nsuo wɔ mu baabiara te sɛ Eden turom anaasɛ Misraim asase a ɛda Soar fam hɔ no ara pɛ. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Awurade nnya nsɛee Sodom ne Gomora.
11 And Loth chees to him the cuntre aboute Jordan, and departide fro the eest; and thei weren departid ech fro his brother.
Na Lot de nʼani kyerɛɛ apueeɛ fam, faa asase a ɛda Yordan ho no. Yei ne ɛkwan a Abram ne Lot faa so dii ntetemu no.
12 Abram dwellide in the lond of Chanaan; sotheli Loth dwellide in townes aboute Jordan, and wonide in Sodom.
Abram tenaa Kanaan asase so. Ɛnna Lot nso dii atutena wɔ nkuropɔn a ɛwowɔ nsase tamaa no so, na ɔkɔsii ne ntomadan wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn Sodom.
13 Forsothe men of Sodom weren ful wickid, and synneris greetly bifore the Lord.
Na nnipa a wɔwɔ Sodom kuro no mu no yɛ amumuyɛfoɔ a daa wɔyɛ bɔne akɛseakɛseɛ de tia Awurade.
14 And the Lord seide to Abram, aftir that Loth was departid fro him, Reise thin iyen forth riyt, and se fro the place in which thou art now, to the north and south, to the eest and west;
Lot tee ne ho firii Abram ho akyiri no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram sɛ, “Afei, ma wʼani so hwɛ atifi fam, anafoɔ fam, apueeɛ fam ne atɔeɛ fam.
15 Y schal yyue al the lond which thou seest to thee and to thi seed, til in to with outen ende.
Mede asasetam a wʼani tua yi nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefoɔ afebɔɔ.
16 And Y schal make thi seed as the dust of erthe; if ony man may noumbre the dust of erthe, also he schal mowe noumbre thi seed.
Mɛma wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso sɛ asase so mfuturo a obiara ntumi nkan.
17 Therfor rise thou, and passe thorou the lond in his lengthe and breede, for Y schal yyue it to thee.
Sɔre, kɔ na kɔhwehwɛ asase no so nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, mede rema wo.”
18 Therfor Abram, mouynge his tabernacle, cam and dwellide bisidis the valei of Mambre, which is in Ebron; and he bildide there an auter to the Lord.
Enti, Abram tutuu ne ntomadan bɛtenaa odum kwaeɛ bi a ɛyɛ Mamrɛ dea wɔ Hebron. Ɛhɔ na ɔsii afɔrebukyia maa Awurade.
