Kinohi 13
1 PII hou mai la o Aberama mai Aigupita mai, oia me kana wahine, a me kana mau mea a pau, a me ia no o Lota, i kau wahi o ke kukuluhema.
Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.
2 Ua waiwai nui loa o Aberama i na holoholona, i ke kala a me ke gula.
Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
3 Hele ae la ia i kona hele ana mai ke kukuluhema mai a Betela, kahi i ku ai o kona halelewa mamua, mawaena o Betela a me Hai;
He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
4 Kahi o ke kuahu ana i haua'i mamua: ilaila o Aberama i kahea aku ai i ka inoa o Iehova.
to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on the LORD’s name.
5 A o Lota hoi, ka mea i hele pu me Aberama, he hipa no kana me na bipi a me na halelewa.
Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, herds, and tents.
6 Aole i pono ka aina no laua, i noho pu ai laua, no ka nui o ko laua waiwai, aole i hiki ia laua ke noho pu.
The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together; for their possessions were so great that they couldn’t live together.
7 Hakaka ae la ka poe kahubipi a Aberama me ka poe kahubipi a Lota: e noho ana no ka Kanaana a me ka Perezi ma ia aina ia manawa.
There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.
8 I aku la o Aberama ia Lota, Ea, aole make hakaka kaua, kekahi i kekahi, aole hoi ka'u poe kahubipi me kau poe kahubipi; no ka mea, he mau hoahanau kaua.
Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.
9 Aole anei ma kou alo ka aina a pau? ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hookaawale kaua: ina oe ma ka lima hema, alaila e hele au ma ka lima akau; a ma ka lima akau oe, alaila e hele au ma ka lima hema.
Isn’t the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”
10 Alawa ae la ko Lota mau maka, ike aku la i na wahi papu o Ioredane, he nui ka wai ma ia wahi a pau i kou hele ana mai i Zoara, mamua o ko Iehova luku ana ia Sodoma a me Gomora, e like me ka mahinaai o Iehova, a e like me ka aina i Aigupita.
Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
11 Alaila, wae iho la o Lota i ka papu a pau o Ioredane: a hele aku la o Lota ma ka hikina, a hookaawale ae la laua i ke kekahi me kekahi.
So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot travelled east, and they separated themselves from one another.
12 Noho iho la o Aberama ma ka aina i Kanaana, a noho aku la o Lota ma na kulanakauhale o ua papu la, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ma Sodoma.
Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
13 A o na kanaka o Sodoma, he poe hewa lakou, he lawehala loa imua o Iehova.
Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against the LORD.
14 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Aberama mahope mai o ko Lota hookaawale ana ae mai ona aku la, E alawa ae oe i kou mau maka, a e nana aku mai kou wahi e noho nei, i ke kukuluakau a i ke kukuluhema, a i ka hikina hoi a i ke komohana:
The LORD said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,
15 No ka mea, o ka aina a pau au e ike nei, na'u ia e haawi aku nou, a no kau poe mamo mahope mau loa aku.
for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.
16 E hoomahuahua aku no wau i kau poe mamo e like me ka lepo o ka honua: ina e hiki i ke kanaka ke helu i na huna lepo o ka honua, alaila e heluia kau poe mamo.
I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.
17 E ku ae; e kaahele i ka aina ma kona loa a ma kona laula; no ka mea, na'u no ia e haawi aku nou.
Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”
18 Alaila lawe ae la o Aberama i kona halelewa, hele aku la ia a noho iho la ma na laau oka no Mamere, aia no ma Heberona, a hana iho la ia ilaila i kuahu no Iehova.
Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.
