Jenesis 13
1 Ebram na nwunye, na ihe niile ha nwere hapụrụ ala Ijipt, gaa ije bịaruo Negev. Lọt sokwa ha.
And Abram goeth up from Egypt (he and his wife, and all that he hath, and Lot with him) towards the south;
2 Nʼoge a, Ebram aghọọla ọgaranya dị ukwuu, onye nwere akụnụba nke ọtụtụ anụ ụlọ, na ọlaọcha, na ọlaedo.
and Abram [is] exceedingly wealthy in cattle, in silver, and in 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 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 —
4 Nʼebe nsọ o wukwara ebe ịchụ aja na mbụ, nʼebe ahụ Ebram kpọkuru aha Onyenwe anyị.
unto the place of the altar which he made there at the first, and there doth Abram preach in the name of Jehovah.
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 also to Lot, who is going with Abram, there hath been 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 hath not suffered them to dwell together, for their substance hath been much, and they have not been able to dwell 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 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.
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 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.
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.”
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.'
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 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,
11 Ya mere, Lọt họọrọ nye onwe ya mbara ala Jọdan niile, chee ihu ịga nʼakụkụ ọwụwa anyanwụ. Ya na Ebram kewara.
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;
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.
Abram hath dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot hath dwelt in the cities of the circuit, and tenteth unto Sodom;
13 Ma ndị Sọdọm bụ ndị obi tara mmiri, ndị na-emehie nke ukwuu megide Onyenwe anyị.
and the men of Sodom [are] evil, and sinners before Jehovah exceedingly.
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 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;
15 Ala ahụ niile ị hụrụ ka m ga-enye gị na mkpụrụ gị ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
for the whole of the land which thou are seeing, to thee I give it, and to thy seed — to the age.
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 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;
17 Bilie jegharịa nʼala ahụ niile nʼakụkụ ya ọbụla, nʼihi na ana m enye gị ha niile.”
rise, go up and down through the land, to its length, and to its breadth, for to thee I give it.'
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 tenteth, and cometh, and dwelleth among the oaks of Mamre, which [are] in Hebron, and buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.
