Jenesis 13
1 Ebram na nwunye, na ihe niile ha nwere hapụrụ ala Ijipt, gaa ije bịaruo Negev. Lọt sokwa ha.
And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the wilderness.
2 Nʼoge a, Ebram aghọọla ọgaranya dị ukwuu, onye nwere akụnụba nke ọtụtụ anụ ụlọ, na ọlaọcha, na ọlaedo.
And Abram was very rich in cattle, and silver, and gold.
3 Ha sitere na Negev pụọ ije site nʼotu ebe ruo nʼebe ọzọ tutu ha erute Betel, nʼebe dị nʼetiti Betel na Ai, ebe ọ mara ụlọ ikwu ya na mbụ.
And he went [to the place] whence he came, into the wilderness as far as Baethel, as far as the place where his tent was before, between Baethel and Aggai,
4 Nʼebe nsọ o wukwara ebe ịchụ aja na mbụ, nʼebe ahụ Ebram kpọkuru aha Onyenwe anyị.
to the place of the altar, which he built there at first, and Abram there called on the name of the Lord.
5 Ugbu a Lọt, onye ya na Ebram so na njem ya, bụkwa onye nwere akụnụba nke igwe ewu na atụrụ, na igwe ehi, na ọtụtụ ụlọ ikwu.
And Lot who went out with Abram had sheep, and oxen, and tents.
6 Ma ala ebe ha nọ ezurughị ha mgbe ha nọkọrọ ọnụ nʼihi na ihe onwunwe ha dị ukwuu ruo na ha enweghị ike ịnọkọ ọnụ.
And the land was not large enough for them to live together, because their possessions were great; and the land was not large enough for them to live together.
7 Nke a mere esemokwu ji dapụta nʼetiti ndị ọzụzụ anụ ụlọ Ebram na ndị ọzụzụ anụ ụlọ Lọt. Ndị Kenan na ndị Periz bikwa nʼala ahụ nʼoge ahụ.
And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle, and the herdmen of Lot's cattle, and the Chananites and the Pherezites then inhabited the land.
8 Ya mere Ebram gwara Lọt sị, “Biko, ka esemokwu ghara ịdị nʼetiti mụ na gị, maọbụ nʼetiti ndị ọzụzụ anụ ụlọ m na ndị ọzụzụ anụ ụlọ gị, nʼihi na anyị bụ ụmụnne.
And Abram said to Lot, Let there not be a strife between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen, for we are brethren.
9 Lee, ọ bụ na ala a niile adịghị nʼihu gị? Ka anyị kewaa. Ọ bụrụ na ị gaa nʼakụkụ aka ekpe, aga m aga nʼakụkụ aka nri. Ma ọ bụrụ na i gaa nʼakụkụ aka nri gị, aga m aga nʼakụkụ aka ekpe.”
Behold! is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself from me; if you [go] to the left, I will go to the right, and if you go to the right, I will go to the left.
10 Lọt lelitere anya hụ na mbara ala Jọdan bụ ala mmiri na-ezokwasị nke ọma, ala dịka ubi a gbara ogige Onyenwe anyị, dịka ala ndị Ijipt nke dị na nso nso Zoa. (Ihe a mere tupu Onyenwe anyị ebibie obodo Sọdọm na Gọmọra.)
And Lot having lifted up his eyes, observed all the country round about Jordan, that it was all watered, before God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrha, as the garden of the Lord, and as the land of Egypt, until you come to Zogora.
11 Ya mere, Lọt họọrọ nye onwe ya mbara ala Jọdan niile, chee ihu ịga nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ. Ya na Ebram kewara.
And Lot chose for himself all the country round Jordan, and Lot went from the east, and they were separated each from his brother. And Abram lived in the land of Chanaan.
12 Ebram nọdụrụ nʼala Kenan, ma Lọt gara biri nʼetiti obodo ndị ahụ dị na mbara ala. Ọ mara ụlọ ikwu ya nso nso obodo Sọdọm.
And Lot lived in a city of the neighbouring people, and pitched his tent in Sodom.
13 Ma ndị Sọdọm bụ ndị obi tara mmiri, ndị na-emehie nke ukwuu megide Onyenwe anyị.
But the men of Sodom were evil, and exceedingly sinful before God.
14 Mgbe Lọt siri nʼebe ahụ pụọ, Onyenwe anyị gwara Ebram okwu sị ya, “Site nʼebe ahụ ị nọ lelie anya gị, lee anya nʼugwu na ndịda, nʼọwụwa anyanwụ na ọdịda anyanwụ.
And God said to Abram after Lot was separated from him, Look up with your eyes, and behold from the place where you now are northward and southward, and eastward and seaward;
15 Ala ahụ niile ị hụrụ ka m ga-enye gị na mkpụrụ gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your seed for ever.
16 Aga m eme ka mkpụrụ gị baa ụba dịka aja dị nʼala. Ọ bụrụ na mmadụ enwe ike ịgụta ọnụọgụgụ aja dị nʼala, ha ga-enwe ike gụta ọnụọgụgụ mkpụrụ gị.
And I will make your seed like the dust of the earth; if any one is able to number the dust of the earth, then shall your seed be numbered.
17 Bilie jegharịa nʼala ahụ niile nʼakụkụ ya ọbụla, nʼihi na ana m enye gị ha niile.”
Arise and traverse the land, both in the length of it and in the breadth; for to you will I give it, and to your seed for ever.
18 Ya mere, Ebram bugharịrị ụlọ ikwu ya, gaa biri nʼakụkụ osisi ukwu Mamre nke dị na Hebrọn. O wuru ebe ịchụ aja nye Onyenwe anyị nʼebe ahụ.
And Abram having removed his tent, came and lived by the oak of Mambre, which was in Chebrom, and he there built an altar to the Lord.
