Genesis 15
1 Tukun ma inge, oasr aruruma se Abram el liye, ac el lohng pusren LEUM GOD fahk nu sel, “Abram, nimet sangeng. Nga ac fah lisring kom liki mwe sensen, ac sot nu sum sie mwe usru lulap.”
And so, these things having been transacted, the word of the Lord came to Abram by a vision, saying: “Do not be afraid, Abram, I am your protector, and your reward is exceedingly great.”
2 Tusruktu Abram el topuk ac fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, mwe mea nu sik mwe usru sacn, ke wangin tulik nutik uh? Mwet sefanna ac usrui ma luk uh, pa Eliezer, mwet Damascus.
And Abram said: “Lord God, what will you give to me? I may go without children. And the son of the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus.”
3 Wangin tulik kom ase nutik, a siena sin mwet kulansap luk fah usrui ma luk.”
And Abram added: “Yet to me you have not given offspring. And behold, my servant born in my house will be my heir.”
4 Na el lohng LEUM GOD El sifilpa kaskas nu sel ac fahk, “Mwet kulansap se inge, Eliezer, el fah tia usrui ma lom, a wen se nutum sifacna ac fah mwet usru lom.”
And immediately the word of the Lord came to him, saying: “This one will not be your heir. But he who will come from your loins, the same will you have for your heir.”
5 LEUM GOD El pwanulla nu likinuma ac fahk, “Ngetak nu inkusrao ac srike in oakla itu ingo. Fwilin tulik nutum ac fah pus oana itu uh.”
And he brought him outside, and he said to him, “Take in the heavens, and number the stars, if you can.” And he said to him, “So also will your offspring be.”
6 Abram el filiya lulalfongi lal in LEUM GOD, ac ke sripa se inge LEUM GOD El oakulla sie mwet suwoswos.
Abram believed God, and it was reputed to him unto justice.
7 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Nga LEUM GOD, su pwenkomme liki acn Ur in facl Babylonia, in asot nu sum acn se inge tuh in ma lom.
And he said to him, “I am the Lord who led you away from Ur of the Chaldeans, so as to give you this land, and so that you would possess it.”
8 Tusruk Abram el siyuk, “LEUM GOD Fulatlana, ac fuka eteya sik lah ac ma luk?”
But he said, “Lord God, in what way may I be able to know that I will possess it?”
9 El topuk ac fahk, “Use soko cow mutan, soko nani mutan, ac soko sheep mukul, kais soko seltal in yac tolu matwa, wi sie wule ac sie wuleoa.”
And the Lord responded by saying: “Take for me a cow of three years, and a she-goat of three years, and a ram of three years, also a turtle-dove and a pigeon.”
10 Abram el use ma inge nu yurin God. El uniya, na fulungya kosro ah nu ke ip luo ac takunla ke tak lukwa, ip luo ke kais sie kain kosro oan tulani nu sie, a el tia fulungya wule ah.
Taking all these, he divided them through the middle, and placed both parts opposite one another. But the birds he did not divide.
11 Won lulap vulture uh tuhwi nu fin ikwen kosro ac won uh, tusruktu Abram el luselosla.
And birds descended upon the carcasses, but Abram drove them away.
12 Ke faht uh fahsr in tili, Abram el motulla folosuwosla, na sangeng ac tuninfong tuyang nu sel.
And when the sun was setting, a deep sleep fell upon Abram, and a dread, great and dark, invaded him.
13 Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel, “Fwilin tulik nutum ac fah mwetsac in sie facl su tia facl selos. Elos ac fah mwet kohs we, na ac fah arulana orek elos koluk ke lusen yac angfoko.
And it was said to him: “Know beforehand that your future offspring will be sojourners in a land not their own, and they will subjugate them in servitude and afflict them for four hundred years.
14 Tusruktu nga ac fah kalyei mutunfacl se ma ac akkohsyelos, na ke elos ac mukuiyak liki facl sac elos ac us mwe kasrup puspis welulos.
Yet truly, I will judge the nation that they will serve, and after this they will depart with great substance.
15 A funu kom, kom ac muta nwe ke na kom matuoh, na kom fah misa in misla, ac pukpuki.
But you will go to your fathers in peace and be buried at a good old age.
16 A ac fah sun fwilin tulik akakosr nutum meet liki elos foloko nu in acn se inge, mweyen nga ac tia lusla mwet Amor nwe ke na arulana yokelik ma koluk lalos ac fal in kalyeiyuk elos.”
But in the fourth generation, they will return here. For the iniquities of the Amorites are not yet completed, even to this present time.”
17 Ke faht ah tili, ac lohsrla acn uh, sie tup in e fofosr ac soko srokom in e sikyak ke kitin pacl ah, ac fahla inmasrlon takin ikwen kosro uh.
Then, when the sun had set, there came a dark mist, and there appeared a smoking furnace and a lamp of fire passing between those divisions.
18 Na in pacl sacna, LEUM GOD El orala wulela se inmasrlol ac Abram, fahkang, “Nga wulela mu nga ac sot facl se inge nufon nu sin fwilin tulik nutum, mutawauk ke masrol lun Egypt nwe ke Infacl Euphrates,
On that day, God formed a covenant with Abram, saying: “To your offspring I will give this land, from the river of Egypt, even to the great river Euphrates:
19 weang acn lun mwet Ken, mwet Keniz, mwet Kadmon,
the land of the Kenites and the Kenizzites, the Kadmonites
20 mwet Hit, mwet Periz, mwet Rephaim,
and the Hittites, and the Perizzites, likewise the Rephaim,
21 mwet Amor, mwet Canaan, mwet Girgash, ac mwet Jebus.”
and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.”
