Genesisy 13

1 Ary Abrama dia niakatra niala tany Egypta, dia izy sy ny vadiny mbamin’ ny fananany rehetra, ary Lota koa niaraka taminy, ho any amin’ ny tany atsimo.

Then Abram went vp from Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him toward the South.

2 Ary Abrama nanana harena be, dia omby aman’ ondry sy volafotsy ary volamena.

And Abram was very rich in cattell, in siluer and in golde.

3 Ary mbola nandeha ihany izy ka nifindrafindra hatrany amin’ ny tany atsimo ka hatrany Betela, izay niorenan’ ny lainy tamin’ ny voalohany, teo anelanelan’ i Betela sy Ay,

And he went on his iourney from ye South toward Beth-el, to the place where his tent had bene at ye beginning, betweene Beth-el and Haai,

4 dia teo amin’ ny tany izay nisy ilay alitara nataony tamin’ ny voalohany; ary dia niantso ny anaran’ i Jehovah teo Abrama.

Vnto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the Name of the Lord.

5 Ary Lota koa, izay niara-nandeha tamin’ i Abrama, dia mba nanana ondry sy omby sy lay.

And Lot also, who went with Abram, had sheepe, and cattell and tentes,

6 Ary tsy omby azy roa lahy ny tany hiraisany monina; fa efa be ny fananany, ka tsy nahazo niray monina izy.

So that the land coulde not beare them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they coulde not dwell together.

7 Dia niady ny mpiandry ombin’ i Abrama sy ny mpiandry ombin’ i Lota; ary ny Kananita sy ny Perizita no tompon-tany tao Kanana fahizay.

Also there was debate betweene ye heardmen of Abrams cattell, and the heardmen of Lots cattell. (and the Canaanites and the Perizzites dwelled at that time in the land.)

8 Ary hoy Abrama tamin’ i Lota: Aoka re mba tsy hisy ady amintsika roa lahy, na amin’ ny mpiandry ombiko sy ny mpiandry ombinao, fa mpirahalahy isika.

Then saide Abram vnto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, betweene thee and me, neither betweene mine heardmen and thine heardmen: for we be brethren.

9 Moa tsy eo anoloanao va ny tany rehetra? Masìna ianao, aoka hisaraka amiko ianao; raha hianavaratra ianao, dia hianatsimo aho; fa raha hianatsimo ianao, dia hianavaratra kosa aho.

Is not the whole land before thee? depart I pray thee from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will goe to the right: or if thou goe to the right hand, then I will take the left.

10 Ary Lota nanopy ny masony ka nitazana ny tany rehetra teny amoron’ i Jordana hatrany akaikin’ i Zoara, fa azon-drano avokoa izy rehetra (talohan’ ny nandravan’ i Jehovah an’ i Sodoma sy Gomora izany), tahaka ny sahan’ i Jehovah sy tahaka ny tany Egypta.

So when Lot lifted vp his eyes, he saw that all the plaine of Iorden was watered euery where: (for before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorah, it was as the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest vnto Zoar)

11 Dia nofidin’ i Lota ho azy ny tany rehetra amoron’ i Jordana, ka nifindra niantsinanana izy; ka dia nisaraka izy roa lahy.

Then Lot chose vnto him all the plaine of Iorden, and tooke his iourney from the East: and they departed the one from the other.

12 Ary Abrama nonina tao amin’ ny tany Kanana, fa Lota kosa nonina tao an-tanàna amin’ ny tany amoron’ i Jordana ka nifindrafindra toby hatrany Sodoma.

Abram dwelled in the lande of Canaan, and Lot abode in the cities of the plaine, and pitched his tent euen to Sodom.

13 Ary ny mponina tao Sodoma dia tena ratsy fanahy sady mpanota indrindra tamin’ i Jehovah.

Now the men of Sodom were wicked and exceeding sinners against the Lord.

14 Ary Jehovah niteny tamin’ i Abrama taorian’ ny nisarahan’ i Lota taminy ka nanao hoe: Atopazy ny masonao, ka hatramin’ ity tany itoeranao ity dia mitazana mianavaratra sy mianatsimo ary miantsinanana sy miankandrefana;

Then the Lord saide vnto Abram, (after that Lot was departed from him) Lift vp thine eyes nowe, and looke from the place where thou art, Northward, and Southward, and Eastwarde, and Westward:

15 fa ny tany rehetra izay tazanao dia homeko anao sy ny taranakao mandrakizay.

For all the land, which thou seest, will I giue vnto thee and to thy seede for euer,

16 Ary hataoko maro tahaka ny vovo-tany ny taranakao; koa raha misy olona mahisa ny vovo-tany, dia ho azo isaina koa ny taranakao.

And I will make thy seede, as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seede be numbred.

17 Miaingà ianao, mandehana mitety ny tany, dia any amin’ ny lavany sy any amin’ ny sakany; fa homeko anao izy.

Arise, walke through the land, in ye length thereof, and breadth thereof: for I will giue it vnto thee.

18 Ary Abrama nifindrafindra toby, dia nandeha ka nonina teo an-kazo terebintan’ i Mamre, izay any Hebrona, ary nanorina alitara teo ho an’ i Jehovah izy.

Then Abram remoued his tent, and came and dwelled in the plaine of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and builded there an altar vnto ye Lord.
