Jenesis 15
1 Mgbe nke a gasịrị, okwu Onyenwe anyị ruru Ebram site nʼọhụ, sị ya, “Atụla egwu, Ebram Abụ m ọta gị, ụgwọ ọrụ dị ukwu nke i nwere.”
And so whanne these thingis weren don, the word of the Lord was maad to Abram bi a visioun, and seide, Abram, nyle thou drede, Y am thi defender, and thi meede is ful greet.
2 Ma Ebram zara sị ya, “Gị, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị, gịnị bụ ihe ị ga-enye m ebe ọ bụ na m amụtaghị nwa? Lee, ọ bụ Elieza, onye Damaskọs, ga-eketa akụ m niile.”
And Abram seide, Lord God, what schalt thou yyue to me? Y schal go with oute fre children, and this Damask, sone of Elieser, the procuratour of myn hous, schal be myn eir.
3 Ebram gara nʼihu kwuo sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na m amụtaghị ụmụ, ọ bụ ohu nọ nʼụlọ m ga-eketa akụ m.”
And Abram addide, Sotheli thou hast not youe seed to me, and, lo! my borun seruaunt schal be myn eir.
4 Ma okwu Onyenwe anyị rutere ya, “Nwoke a agaghị eketa ihe i nwere, kama nwa nwoke nke ga-esi nʼahụ gị pụta ga-eketa ihe i nwere.”
And anoon the word of the Lord was maad to hym, and seide, This schal not be thin eir, but thou schalt haue hym eir, that schal go out of thi wombe.
5 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị kpọpụtara Ebram nʼezi sị ya, “Lelie anya gị elu na mbara eluigwe, gụọ kpakpando niile ị hụrụ ọnụ, ma ị ga-enwe ike ịgụta ha.” Ọ gwara ya sị, “Otu a ka mkpụrụ gị ga-adị. A gaghị agụta ha ọnụ.”
And the Lord ledde out Abram, and seide to hym, Biholde thou heuene, and noumbre thou sterris, if thou maist. And the Lord seide to Abram, So thi seed schal be.
6 Ebram kweere nʼihe Onyenwe anyị kwuru. Nʼihi nke a, a gụnyere ya okwukwe a dịka ezi omume.
Abram bileuede to God, and it was arettid to hym to riytfulnesse.
7 Onyenwe anyị gwakwara ya sị, “Mụ onwe m bụ Onyenwe anyị, onye si nʼala Ụọ nke ndị Kaldịa kpọpụta gị, inye gị ala a ka ọ bụrụ ihe nweta gị.”
And God seide to hym, Y am the Lord, that ladde thee out of Vr of Caldeis, that Y schulde yyue this lond to thee, and thou schuldist haue it in possessioun.
8 Ma Ebram zara sị, “Biko, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị olee otu m ga-esi mara na m ga-enweta ya?”
And Abram seide, Lord God, wherbi may I wite that Y schal welde it?
9 Onyenwe anyị zara sị ya, “Wetara m nwa nne ehi gbara afọ atọ, na nne ewu gbara afọ atọ, na ebule gbara afọ atọ, na nduru, na nwa kpalakwukwu.”
And the Lord answerde, and seide, Take thou to me a cow of thre yeer, and a geet of thre yeer, and a ram of thre yeer, a turtle also, and a culuer.
10 Ebram wetaara ya ihe ndị a niile bọwaa ha ụzọ abụọ, doo ha nʼusoro ka otu akụkụ chee akụkụ nke ọzọ ihu. Ma ọ bọwaghị ụmụ nnụnụ ndị ahụ.
Which took alle these thingis, and departide tho bi the myddis, and settide euer eithir partis ech ayens other; but he departide not the briddis.
11 Mgbe anụ ufe fekwasịrị ozu anụ ndị ahụ, Ebram chụpụrụ ha.
And foulis camen doun on the careyns, and Abram drof hem awey.
12 Mgbe anwụ bidoro ịda, Ebram dara nʼoke ụra, oke ụjọ na oke ọchịchịrị dakwasịrị ya.
And whanne the sunne was gon doun, drede felde on Abram, and a greet hidousenesse and derk asaylide him.
13 Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị gwara ya sị, “Mata nke ọma na ụmụ ụmụ gị ga-anọ dịka ndị ọbịa nʼala na-abụghị nke ha. A ga-edo ha ọnọdụ dịka ndị ohu, mejọọ ha narị afọ anọ.
And it was seid to hym, Wite thou bifore knowinge, that thi seed schal be pilgrim foure hundrid yeer in a lond not his owne, and thei schulen make hem suget to seruage, and thei schulen turment hem;
14 Ma aga m ata mba ahụ ha na-efe dịka ohu ahụhụ. Nʼikpeazụ, ha ga-eji ọtụtụ akụ si nʼebe ahụ pụta.
netheles Y schal deme the folk to whom thei schulen serue; and aftir these thingis thei schulen go out with greet catel.
15 Ma ị ga-anwụ nʼudo. A ga-eli gị mgbe ị kara ezi nka.
Forsothe thou schalt go to thi fadris in pees, and schalt be biried in good age.
16 Mgbe ọgbọ anọ gasịrị, ụmụ ụmụ gị ga-alọtakwa nʼala a. Nʼihi na mmehie ndị Amọrait erubeghị nʼuju ya.”
Sotheli in the fourthe generacioun thei schulen turne ayen hidir, for the wickidnesses of Amoreis ben not yit fillid, `til to present tyme.
17 Mgbe anwụ dara, mgbe ọchịchịrị gbachiri ebe niile, ite ọkụ na-akwụ anwụrụ ọkụ nke nwere ọwa na-enwu ọkụ si nʼetiti ibe anụ ndị ahụ gafee.
Therfor whanne the sunne was gon doun, a derk myst was maad, and a furneis smokynge apperide, and a laumpe of fier, and passide thorou tho departingis.
18 Nʼụbọchị ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị na Ebram gbara ndụ. Ọ sị, “Ndị agbụrụ gị ka m ga-enye ala ndị a, malite nʼiyi ndị Ijipt ruo nʼiyi ukwu Yufretis.
In that dai the Lord made a couenaunt of pees with Abram, and seide, Y schal yyue to thi seed this lond, fro the ryuer of Egipt til to the greet ryuer Eufrates; Cyneis,
19 Ala ndị Ken, na nke ndị Keniz, na nke ndị Kadmọn,
and Cyneseis, and Cethmoneis, and Etheis,
20 na ala ndị Het, na nke ndị Periz na nke ndị Refaim,
and Fereseis, and Raphaym, and Amorreis,
21 na ala ndị Amọrait na nke ndị Kenan na nke ndị Gigash na nke ndị Jebus.”
and Cananeis, and Gergeseis, and Jebuseis.
