Genesis 13
1 And Abram goeth up from Egypt (he and his wife, and all that he hath, and Lot with him) towards the south;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩambata akiuma Misiri agĩthiĩ Negevu, arĩ na mũtumia wake na indo ciothe iria aarĩ nacio, na Loti agĩthiĩ hamwe nake.
2 and Abram [is] exceedingly wealthy in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
Aburamu nĩatongete mũno na ũtonga wa mahiũ, na wa betha, na wa thahabu.
3 And he goeth on his journeyings from the south, even unto Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the commencement, between Bethel and Hai —
Kuuma kũu Negevu nĩathiire kũndũ na kũndũ o nginya agĩkinya Betheli, o harĩa aambĩte hema yake rĩa mbere gatagatĩ ka Betheli na Ai,
4 unto the place of the altar which he made there at the first, and there doth Abram preach in the name of Jehovah.
na hau nĩho aakĩte kĩgongona ihinda rĩa mbere. Na Aburamu agĩkaĩra rĩĩtwa rĩa Jehova ho.
5 And also to Lot, who is going with Abram, there hath been sheep and oxen and tents;
Na rĩrĩ, Loti, ũrĩa matwaranaga na Aburamu, o nake aarĩ na ndũũru cia mbũri, na cia ngʼombe, na ndungata nyingĩ.
6 and the land hath not suffered them to dwell together, for their substance hath been much, and they have not been able to dwell together;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio bũrũri ũcio ndũngĩahotire kũmaigania ũrĩithio marĩ hamwe, nĩ tondũ indo ciao ciarĩ nyingĩ mũno, ũndũ matangĩahotire gũikarania hamwe.
7 and there is a strife between those feeding Abram's cattle and those feeding Lot's cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite [are] then dwelling in the land.
Na nĩ kwagĩire ngũĩ gatagatĩ ka arĩithi a Aburamu na arĩithi a Loti. Akaanani na Aperizi o nao maatũũraga o bũrũri-inĩ ũcio hĩndĩ ĩyo.
8 And Abram saith unto Lot, 'Let there not, I pray thee, be strife between me and thee, and between my shepherds and thy shepherds, for we [are] men — brethren.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩĩra Loti atĩrĩ, “Nĩtũtige kũgĩa na ngũĩ gatagatĩ gaitũ nawe, kana gatagatĩ ka arĩithi aku na arĩithi akwa, nĩ tondũ tũrĩ andũ a nyũmba ĩmwe.
9 Is not all the land before thee? be parted, I pray thee, from me; if to the left, then I to the right; and if to the right, then I to the left.'
Githĩ bũrũri ũyũ wothe ndũrĩ mbere yaku? Reke tũtigane. Wathiĩ mwena wa ũmotho, na niĩ ngũthiĩ mwena wa ũrĩo; wathiĩ mwena wa ũrĩo, na niĩ ngũthiĩ mwena wa ũmotho.”
10 And Lot lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the whole circuit of the Jordan that it [is] all a watered country (before Jehovah's destroying Sodom and Gomorrah, as Jehovah's garden, as the land of Egypt, ) in thy coming toward Zoar,
Loti nĩatiirire maitho, akĩbaara, akĩona atĩ kĩaragana gĩothe kĩa Jorodani kĩarĩ na maaĩ maingĩ, gĩgakĩhaana o ta mũgũnda ũrĩa wa Jehova, na o ta bũrũri wa Misiri, ũrĩa ũngʼetheire Zoari. (Hĩndĩ ĩyo nĩ mbere ya Jehova kũnũha Sodomu na Gomora.)
11 and Lot chooseth for himself the whole circuit of the Jordan; and Lot journeyeth from the east, and they are parted — a man from his companion;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Loti agĩĩthuurĩra kĩaragana kĩa Jorodani gĩothe na akiumagara erekeire irathĩro. Andũ acio eerĩ magĩtigana:
12 Abram hath dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot hath dwelt in the cities of the circuit, and tenteth unto Sodom;
Aburamu agĩtũũra bũrũri wa Kaanani, nake Loti agĩtũũra matũũra-inĩ ma kĩaragana kĩu, akĩamba hema ciake hakuhĩ na Sodomu.
13 and the men of Sodom [are] evil, and sinners before Jehovah exceedingly.
Na rĩrĩ, andũ a Sodomu maarĩ aaganu, na makehagĩria Jehova mũno.
14 And Jehovah said unto Abram, after Lot's being parted from him, 'Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and look from the place where thou [art], northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;
Aburamu na Loti maatigana-rĩ, Jehova akĩĩra Aburamu atĩrĩ, “Ta tiira maitho maku na igũrũ ũrĩ o hau ũrĩ, ũrore mwena wa gathigathini na gũthini, irathĩro na ithũĩro.
15 for the whole of the land which thou are seeing, to thee I give it, and to thy seed — to the age.
Bũrũri ũrĩa wothe ũkuona nĩngũkũhe ũtuĩke waku, na wa rũciaro rwaku nginya tene.
16 And I have set thy seed as dust of the earth, so that, if one is able to number the dust of the earth, even thy seed is numbered;
Nĩngaatũma rũciaro rwaku rũingĩhe o ta rũkũngũ rwa thĩ, na kũngĩkorwo kũrĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota gũtara rũkũngũ rwa thĩ-rĩ, o na rũciaro rwaku no rũgĩtarĩke.
17 rise, go up and down through the land, to its length, and to its breadth, for to thee I give it.'
Ũkĩra ũthiĩ, ũtuĩkanie bũrũri ũyũ ũraihu waguo na wariĩ waguo, tondũ nĩngũkũhe guo.”
18 And Abram tenteth, and cometh, and dwelleth among the oaks of Mamre, which [are] in Hebron, and buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Aburamu akĩambũra hema ciake, agĩthiĩ gũtũũra hakuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya mĩgandi ya Mamure kũu Hebironi, na agĩakĩra Jehova kĩgongona hau.
