Ebandeli 15
1 Sima na makambo oyo, Yawe alobaki na Abrami na nzela ya emoniseli: — Kobanga te, Abrami! Nazali nguba na yo, lifuti na yo ekozala monene.
After these deades ye worde of God came vnto Abram in a vision saynge feare not Abram I am thy shilde and thy rewarde shalbe exceadynge greate.
2 Kasi Abrami azongisaki: — Oh Nkolo Yawe, okopesa ngai nini? Nazali na mwana te, mpe ezali Eliezeri ya Damasi nde akokitana na libula na ngai.
And Abram answered: LORde Iehouah what wilt thou geue me: I goo childlesse and the cater of myne housse this Eleasar of Damasco hath a sonne.
3 Abrami alobaki lisusu: — Opesi ngai mwana te; yango wana mosali moko kati na ndako na ngai akozala mokitani ya libula na ngai!
And Abram sayd: se to me hast thou geven no seed: lo a lad borne in my housse shalbe myne heyre.
4 Yawe alobaki na ye: — Moto wana akozala mokitani ya libula na yo te. Kasi mwana oyo akobima na mokongo na yo nde akozala mokitani ya libula na yo.
And beholde the worde of the LORde spake vnto Abram sayenge: He shall not be thyne heyre but one that shall come out of thyne awne bodye shalbe thyne heyre.
5 Yawe amemaki Abrami na libanda mpe alobaki na ye: — Tala na likolo mpe tanga minzoto soki okokoka kotanga yango. Alobaki na ye lisusu: — Ezali boye nde bakitani na yo bakozala.
And he brought him out at the doores ad sayde. Loke vpp vnto heaven and tell the starres yf thou be able to nobre them. And sayde vnto him Even so shall thy seed be.
6 Abrami azalaki na kondima epai ya Yawe, yango wana Yawe atangaki ye lokola moto ya sembo.
And Abram beleved the LORde and it was counted to him for rightwesnes.
7 Alobaki na ye lisusu: — Nazali Yawe oyo nabimisaki yo wuta na Uri, mokili ya bato ya Chalide, mpo na kopesa yo mokili oyo.
And he sayde vnto hym: I am the LORde that brought the out of Vrin Chaldea to geue the this lande to possesse it.
8 Kasi Abrami alobaki: — Ah Nkolo Yawe, nakoyeba ndenge nini ete mokili oyo epesameli ngai?
And he sayde: LORde God whereby shall I knowe that I shall possesse it?
9 Yawe alobaki na ye: — Memela Ngai mwana ngombe moko ya mwasi ya mibu misato, ntaba ya mwasi ya mibu misato, meme ya mobali ya mibu misato, ebenga moko ya zamba mpe ebenga moko ya mboka.
And he sayde vnto him: take an heyfer of. iij. yere olde and a she gotte of thre yeres olde and a thre yere olde ram a turtill doue and a yonge pigeon.
10 Abrami amemelaki Ye banyama oyo nyonso, akataki yango na biteni mibale mpe atiaki yango etalana eteni moko na eteni mosusu; kasi akataki bandeke te.
And he toke all these and devyded them in the myddes and layde euery pece one over agenst a nother. But the foules devyded he not.
11 Bandeke oyo eliaka misuni ekitaki mpo na kolia misuni yango, kasi Abrami abenganaki yango.
And the byrdes fell on the carcases but Abra droue the awaye.
12 Tango moyi ekitaki, Abrami alalaki pongi makasi. Na kati ya molili makasi, somo ekangaki ye.
And when the sonne was doune there fell a slomber apon Abram. And loo feare and greate darknesse came apon hym.
13 Boye, Yawe alobaki na Abrami: — Yeba solo ete bakitani na yo bakozala bapaya kati na mokili ya bapaya epai wapi bakozala bawumbu; mpe bakonyokola bango kuna mibu nkama minei.
And he sayde vnto Abram: knowe this of a suertie that thi seed shalbe a straunger in a lande that perteyneth not vnto the. And they shall make bondmen of them and entreate them evell iiij. hundred yeares.
14 Kasi nakopesa etumbu na ekolo oyo ekokomisa bango bawumbu; mpe na sima, bakobima longwa na mokili yango elongo na bozwi ebele.
But the nation whom they shall serue wyll I iudge. And after warde shall they come out wyth greate substace.
15 Bongo yo, okokufa na kimia mpe okokundama sima na kimobange ya esengo.
Neuerthelesse thou shalt goo vnto thi fathers in peace ad shalt be buried when thou art of a good age:
16 Na molongo ya minei, bakitani na yo bakozonga awa, pamba te masumu ya bato ya Amori ekomi nanu ebele te.
ad in the fourth generation they shall come hyther agayne for the wekednesse of the Amorites ys not yet full.
17 Tango moyi elalaki mpe molili eyaki makasi, mbabola ya milinga mpe koni ya moto elekaki kati ya biteni ya banyama.
When the sonne was doune and it was waxed darke: beholde there was a smokynge furnesse and a fyre brand that went betwene the sayde peces.
18 Na mokolo yango, Yawe asalaki boyokani elongo na Abrami mpe alobaki: « Nakopesa mokili oyo na bakitani na yo wuta na moluka ya Ejipito kino na ebale Efrate:
And that same daye the LORde made a covenaunte with Abram saynge: vnto thy seed wyll I geue thys londe fro the ryver of Egypte even vnto the greate ryver euphrates:
19 mokili ya bato ya Keni, ya bato ya Kenizi, ya bato ya Kadimoni,
