1 Saboda haka Abram ya haura daga Masar zuwa Negeb tare da matarsa, da dukan abin da yake da shi tare da Lot.
Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻEpalame mei ʻIsipite, ko ia, mo hono uaifi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne maʻu, pea naʻa nau ō mo Lote, ki he feituʻu tonga.
2 Abram ya azurta ƙwarai da dabbobi, da azurfa, da kuma zinariya.
Pea naʻe koloaʻia ʻaupito ʻa ʻEpalame ʻi he fanga manu, mo e siliva, mo e koula.
3 Daga Negeb, ya ci gaba da tafiyarsa a wurare dabam-dabam har ya kai tsakanin Betel da Ai, a inda dā ya kafa tentinsa na fari
Pea ʻalu ai pe ia ʻi hono fononga mei he feituʻu tonga ʻo aʻu ki Peteli, ki he potu naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa hono fale fehikitaki he kamataʻanga, ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi:
4 da kuma inda dā ya gina bagade. A can Abram ya kira bisa sunan Ubangiji.
Ki he potu ʻoe ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia naʻa ne tomuʻa fokotuʻu: pea naʻe ui ai ʻa ʻEpalame ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
5 Lot wanda yake tafiya tare da Abram, shi ma yana da garken shanu da tumaki da kuma tentuna.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Lote foki, ʻaia naʻe ō mo ʻEpalame, ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga manu, mo e ngaahi fale fehikitaki.
6 Wannan ya sa har ƙasar ba tă ishe su yayinda suke zama tare ba, saboda mallakarsu ta yi yawa har ba za su iya zama tare ba.
Pea naʻe siʻi ʻae fonua kiate kinaua ke na nofo fakataha: he naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻena meʻa, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te na faʻa nofo fakataha.
7 Rikici kuma ya tashi tsakanin masu kiwon dabbobin Abram da na Lot. Mazaunan ƙasar, a lokacin kuwa Kan’aniyawa da Ferizziyawa ne.
Pea naʻe ai ha kē ʻi he kau tauhimanu ʻa ʻEpalame mo e kau tauhimanu ʻa Lote: pea naʻe kei nofo ʻae kakai Kēnani mo e kau Pelisi ʻi he fonua, ʻi he kuonga ko ia.
8 Saboda haka Abram ya ce wa Lot, “Kada mu bar rikici yă shiga tsakaninmu, ko kuma tsakanin masu kiwon dabbobinka da nawa, gama mu’yan’uwa ne.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEpalame kia Lote, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kē ʻiate kitaua, pe ʻi heʻeku kau tauhimanu mo hoʻo kau tauhimanu; he ʻoku ta kāinga.
9 Ba ga dukan ƙasar tana gabanka ba? Bari mu rabu. In ka yi hagu sai ni in yi dama. In ka yi dama, sai ni in yi hagu.”
‌ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻae fonua kotoa? ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke mavahe koe ʻiate au: kapau te ke ʻi he toʻohema pea te u ʻalu au ki he toʻomataʻu; pea kapau te ke ʻalu ki he toʻomataʻu, pea te u ʻalu au ki he toʻohema.”
10 Lot ya ɗaga idanunsa sama ya dubi kwarin Urdun, sai ya ga kwarin yana da ciyawa mai kyau ƙwarai sai ka ce lambun Ubangiji, kamar ƙasar Masar, wajajen Zowar. (Wannan fa kafin Ubangiji yă hallaka Sodom da Gomorra.)
Pea naʻe sio hake ʻa Lote, pea vakai ʻe ia ki he fonua fakalelei kotoa pē ʻo Sioatani, kuo lahi ʻae vai ʻi he potu kotoa pē. ʻI he teʻeki ke fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻa Sotoma mo Komola, naʻe hangē ia ko e ngoue ʻa Sihova, ʻo tatau mo e fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi he halaifonua ki Soa.
11 Saboda haka sai Lot ya zaɓar wa kansa dukan kwarin Urdun, ya tashi ya nufi wajen gabas. Haka fa suka rabu da juna.
Pea naʻe fili ʻe Lote maʻana, ʻae fonua tokalelei kotoa pē ʻo Sioatani; pea fononga ʻa Lote ki he feituʻu hahake: pea naʻe fakamāvae ʻakinaua.
12 Abram ya zauna a ƙasar Kan’ana, yayinda Lot ya zauna cikin biranen kwari, ya kafa tentunansa kusa da Sodom.
Naʻe nofo ʻa ʻEpalame ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, pea nofo ʻa Lote ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻoe tokalelei, pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu hono fale fehikitaki ke hanga ki Sotoma.
13 Mutanen Sodom kuwa mugaye ne, sun aikata zunubi ƙwarai ga Ubangiji.
Ka naʻe kovi ʻae kakai ʻo Sotoma, pea angahala ʻaupito ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
14 Bayan Lot ya rabu da Abram, sai Ubangiji ya ce wa Abram, “Ɗaga idanunka daga inda kake, ka dubi arewa da kudu, gabas da yamma.
Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpalame, hili ʻae māvae ʻa Lote meiate ia, “Tangaki hake ni ho mata, pea sio mei he potu ʻoku ke ʻi ai ki he tokelau mo e tonga, pea ki he hahake, mo hihifo:
15 Dukan ƙasar da kake gani zan ba ka, kai da zuriyarka har abada.
He ko e fonua kotoa pē ʻoku ke mamata ai, te u foaki ia kiate koe, pea ki ho hako ʻo lauikuonga.
16 Zan sa zuriyarka tă yi yawa kamar ƙurar ƙasa, har in wani yana iya ƙidaya ƙurar, to, za a iya ƙidaya zuriyarka.
Pea te u fakatupu ho hako ke hangē ko e efu ʻoe kelekele: pea kapau ʻe faʻa lau ʻe ha tangata ʻae efu ʻoe kelekele, pehē, ʻe lau foki ʻa ho hako.
17 Tafi, ka ratsa tsawo da fāɗin ƙasar, gama zan ba ka ita.”
Tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu ʻi he fonua, ʻi hono lōloa mo hono māukupu ʻo ia he te u foaki ia kiate koe.”
18 Saboda haka Abram ya cire tentunansa, ya zo ya zauna kusa da manyan itatuwan Mamre a Hebron, inda ya gina bagade ga Ubangiji.
Pea naʻe toki hiki ʻe ʻEpalame hono fale fehikitaki, pea haʻu ʻo nofo ʻi he fonua tokalelei ʻo Mamili, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Hepeloni, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau kia Sihova.
