< Genesis 15 >
1 And so whanne these thingis weren don, the word of the Lord was maad to Abram bi a visioun, and seide, Abram, nyle thou drede, Y am thi defender, and thi meede is ful greet.
Thuutha wa maũndũ macio, ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Aburamu na kĩoneki, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ: “Aburamu, ndũgetigĩre. Niĩ nĩ niĩ ngo yaku, na nĩ niĩ kĩheo gĩaku kĩnene.”
2 And Abram seide, Lord God, what schalt thou yyue to me? Y schal go with oute fre children, and this Damask, sone of Elieser, the procuratour of myn hous, schal be myn eir.
No Aburamu akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani Jehova, hihi nĩ kĩĩ ũkũũhe, kuona atĩ ndirĩ mwana, na ũrĩa ũkaagaya mũciĩ ũyũ wakwa nĩ Eliezeri wa Dameski?”
3 And Abram addide, Sotheli thou hast not youe seed to me, and, lo! my borun seruaunt schal be myn eir.
Ningĩ Aburamu akiuga atĩrĩ, “Nĩwagĩte kũũhe ciana; nĩ ũndũ ũcio ndungata ya mũciĩ wakwa nĩyo ĩkaangaya.”
4 And anoon the word of the Lord was maad to hym, and seide, This schal not be thin eir, but thou schalt haue hym eir, that schal go out of thi wombe.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo ndũmĩrĩri ya Jehova ĩgĩkinyĩra Aburamu, akĩĩrwo atĩrĩ, “Aca, Eliezeri tiwe ũgaakũgaya, no mũrũguo ũrĩa ũkoima mũthiimo waku nĩwe ũgaakũgaya.”
5 And the Lord ledde out Abram, and seide to hym, Biholde thou heuene, and noumbre thou sterris, if thou maist. And the Lord seide to Abram, So thi seed schal be.
Akiumia Aburamu nja, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta tiira maitho ũrore igũrũ na ũtare njata, angĩkorwo ti-itherũ no ũcitare.” Ningĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũguo nĩguo rũciaro rwaku rũkaigana.”
6 Abram bileuede to God, and it was arettid to hym to riytfulnesse.
Aburamu agĩĩtĩkia Jehova. Nake Jehova agĩkenio nĩ wĩtĩkio ũcio, akĩmũtua mũthingu.
7 And God seide to hym, Y am the Lord, that ladde thee out of Vr of Caldeis, that Y schulde yyue this lond to thee, and thou schuldist haue it in possessioun.
Ningĩ akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ niĩ Jehova ũrĩa wakũrutire bũrũri wa Uri-kwa-Akalidei, nĩgeetha ngũhe bũrũri ũyũ ũtuĩke igai rĩaku.”
8 And Abram seide, Lord God, wherbi may I wite that Y schal welde it?
No Aburamu akĩmũũria atĩrĩ, “Mwathani Jehova, ũngĩĩmenyithia nakĩ atĩ nĩũgatuĩka igai rĩakwa?”
9 And the Lord answerde, and seide, Take thou to me a cow of thre yeer, and a geet of thre yeer, and a ram of thre yeer, a turtle also, and a culuer.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ta ndeehera moori, na mbũri, na ndũrũme, na o ĩmwe yacio ĩkorwo ĩrĩ na mĩaka ĩtatũ, o hamwe na ndutura, na gĩcui kĩa ndirahũgĩ.”
10 Which took alle these thingis, and departide tho bi the myddis, and settide euer eithir partis ech ayens other; but he departide not the briddis.
Aburamu akĩrehera Jehova indo icio ciothe, agĩciatũrania njatũ igĩrĩ, na agĩciara mũhari, o rwatũ rũkaringana na rwatũ rũrĩa rũngĩ; no nyoni-rĩ, aaciũraga ndaaciatũranirie.
11 And foulis camen doun on the careyns, and Abram drof hem awey.
Nacio nderi ikĩharũrũkĩra nyama icio, no Aburamu agĩcingata, agĩciũmbũra.
12 And whanne the sunne was gon doun, drede felde on Abram, and a greet hidousenesse and derk asaylide him.
Riũa rĩgĩthũa-rĩ, Aburamu agĩkoma toro mũnene, nayo nduma nene na ya kũmakania ĩkĩmũnyiita.
13 And it was seid to hym, Wite thou bifore knowinge, that thi seed schal be pilgrim foure hundrid yeer in a lond not his owne, and thei schulen make hem suget to seruage, and thei schulen turment hem;
Ningĩ Jehova akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Menya na ma atĩ njiaro ciaku nĩigatũũra irĩ ageni bũrũri ũtarĩ wacio, na nĩigatuuo ngombo na inyariirwo mĩaka magana mana.
14 netheles Y schal deme the folk to whom thei schulen serue; and aftir these thingis thei schulen go out with greet catel.
No nĩngaherithia rũrĩrĩ rũu igatungata irĩ ngombo, na thuutha ũcio nĩikoima kuo irĩ na ũtonga mũingĩ.
15 Forsothe thou schalt go to thi fadris in pees, and schalt be biried in good age.
No wee-rĩ, ũgaakua na thayũ, na ũgaathikwo ũrĩ na ũkũrũ mwega.
16 Sotheli in the fourthe generacioun thei schulen turne ayen hidir, for the wickidnesses of Amoreis ben not yit fillid, `til to present tyme.
Rũciaro-inĩ rwa kana-rĩ, njiaro ciaku nĩigacooka gũkũ, nĩgũkorwo mehia ma Aamori matikinyĩte harĩa ho.”
17 Therfor whanne the sunne was gon doun, a derk myst was maad, and a furneis smokynge apperide, and a laumpe of fier, and passide thorou tho departingis.
Na rĩrĩ, riũa rĩathũa na kwagĩa nduma-rĩ, hakĩoneka nyũngũ ya mwaki yatoogaga ĩrĩ na kĩmũrĩ gĩkĩrĩrĩmbũka gĩgĩtuĩkanĩria gatagatĩ ka njatũ icio.
18 In that dai the Lord made a couenaunt of pees with Abram, and seide, Y schal yyue to thi seed this lond, fro the ryuer of Egipt til to the greet ryuer Eufrates; Cyneis,
Mũthenya ũcio, Jehova akĩrĩĩkanĩra na Aburamu kĩrĩkanĩro, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩndahe njiaro ciaku bũrũri ũyũ, kuuma rũũĩ rwa Misiri nginya rũũĩ rũrĩa rũnene rwa Farati:
19 and Cyneseis, and Cethmoneis, and Etheis,
bũrũri wa Akeni, na wa Akenizi, na wa Akadimoni,
20 and Fereseis, and Raphaym, and Amorreis,
na wa Ahiti, na wa Aperizi, na wa Arefai,
21 and Cananeis, and Gergeseis, and Jebuseis.
na wa Aamori, na wa Akaanani, na wa Agirigashi, na wa Ajebusi.”
