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.”
Pea hili ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni, naʻe haʻu ʻae folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpalame ʻi he meʻa hā mai ʻo pehē, “ʻOua naʻa ke manavahē ʻEpalame: ko ho ungaʻanga au, mo ho totongi lahi ʻaupito.”
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.”
Pea pehēange ʻe ʻEpalame, “E Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ko e hā te ke foaki kiate au, he ʻoku ou masiva fānau, pea ko e tauhi ʻo hoku ʻapi, ko e ʻEliesa ni ʻo Tamasikusi?”
3 Ebram gara nʼihu kwuo sị, “Ebe ọ bụ na m amụtaghị ụmụ, ọ bụ ohu nọ nʼụlọ m ga-eketa akụ m.”
Pea pehē ʻe ʻEpalame, “Vakai, naʻe ʻikai te ke foaki kiate au ha hako; pea vakai, ko e taha naʻe fānau ʻi hoku fale, ko hoku hoko ia.”
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.”
Pea ʻiloange, naʻe folofola mai ʻa Sihova kiate ia, ʻo pehē, “ʻOku ʻikai ko ho hoko ia: ka ko ia ʻe tupu mei ho fatu ʻoʻou ko ho hoko ia.”
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.”
Pea ne taki atu ia kituaʻā, ʻo ne pehē, “Hanga hake ni ki he langi, ʻo lau ʻae ngaahi fetuʻu, ʻo kapau te ke faʻa lau ia; pea ne pehē kiate ia, E tatau mo ia ho hako.”
6 Ebram kweere nʼihe Onyenwe anyị kwuru. Nʼihi nke a, a gụnyere ya okwukwe a dịka ezi omume.
Pea naʻe tui ia kia Sihova; pea naʻe lau ia kiate ia, ko e māʻoniʻoni.
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.”
Pea naʻa ne pehē kiate ia, “Ko au ko Sihova, naʻaku ʻomi koe mei Ua, ʻi Kalitia, ke foaki kiate koe ʻae fonua ni, ke ke maʻu moʻou.”
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?”
Pea ne pehē ʻe ia, “E Sihova ko e ʻOtua, te u ʻilo ʻi he ha te u maʻu ia?
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.”
Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Toʻo mai maʻaku ʻae pulu fefine mui ʻoku tolu taʻu hono motuʻa, mo e kosi fefine ʻoku tolu taʻu hono motuʻa, mo e sipitangata ʻoku tolu taʻu hono motuʻa, mo e kulukulu mo e lupe mui.”
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.
Pea ne toʻo ʻae ngaahi meʻa ni kotoa pē, ʻo ne fahiua ʻakinautolu, ʻo tuku fakaholo ʻae ngaahi konga kotoa pē, ka naʻe ʻikai te ne fahiʻi ʻae fanga manupuna.
11 Mgbe anụ ufe fekwasịrị ozu anụ ndị ahụ, Ebram chụpụrụ ha.
Pea ʻi he lolofa mai ʻae fanga manupuna ki he ngaahi ʻangaʻanga, naʻe fakahēhē ia ʻe ʻEpalame.
12 Mgbe anwụ bidoro ịda, Ebram dara nʼoke ụra, oke ụjọ na oke ọchịchịrị dakwasịrị ya.
Pea ʻi he kamata tō ʻae laʻā, naʻe hoko ʻae mohe maʻu kia ʻEpalame: pea vakai naʻe tō kiate ia ʻae fuʻu manavahē ʻoe fakapoʻuli lahi.
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.
Pea naʻe pehē kia ʻEpalame, “Ke ke ʻilo pau eni, ʻe nofo ʻāunofo ho hako ʻi ha fonua ʻoku ʻikai ʻonautolu, pea te nau tauhi ʻakinautolu; pea te nau fakamamahi ʻakinautolu ʻi he taʻu ʻe fāngeau.
14 Ma aga m ata mba ahụ ha na-efe dịka ohu ahụhụ. Nʼikpeazụ, ha ga-eji ọtụtụ akụ si nʼebe ahụ pụta.
Pea ko e puleʻanga ko ia te nau ngāue ki ai, te u fakamaauʻi foki: pea hili ia te nau haʻu mei ai mo e koloa lahi.
15 Ma ị ga-anwụ nʼudo. A ga-eli gị mgbe ị kara ezi nka.
Pea te ke ʻalu koe ki hoʻo ngaahi tamai ʻi he fiemālie: ʻe pekia koe ʻoka ke ka motuʻa lelei.
16 Mgbe ọgbọ anọ gasịrị, ụmụ ụmụ gị ga-alọtakwa nʼala a. Nʼihi na mmehie ndị Amọrait erubeghị nʼuju ya.”
Pea ʻi hono fā ʻoe toʻutangata te nau toe haʻu ki heni; he ʻoku teʻeki ai fonu ʻae angahala ʻae kakai ʻAmoli.”
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.
Pea ʻi he tō ʻae laʻā pea poʻuli, vakai, naʻe ʻi ai ʻae afi kakaha kuo kohu, mo e maama ulo naʻe ʻalu ʻi he vahaʻa ʻoe ngaahi konga [manu].
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.
ʻI he ʻaho ko ia naʻe fai ʻe Sihova ʻae fuakava mo ʻEpalame, ʻo pehē, “Kuo u tuku ki ho hako ʻae fonua ni, mei he vaitafe ʻo ʻIsipite ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe lahi, ʻaia ko e ʻIufaletesi.
