< UGenesisi 13 >

1 UAbrama wasesenyuka eGibhithe, yena lomkakhe lakho konke ayelakho loLothi kanye laye, waya eningizimu.
Therfore Abram stiede fro Egipt, he, and his wijf, and alle thingis that he hadde; and Loth stiede with hym, to the south coost.
2 Njalo uAbrama wayenothile kakhulu, ngezifuyo, ngesiliva, langegolide.
Forsothe he was ful riche in possessyoun of siluer and of gold.
3 Wasehamba kuzinhambo zakhe esuka eningizimu, waze wafika eBhetheli, endaweni lapho ithente lakhe elalikhona kuqala, phakathi kweBhetheli leAyi;
And he turnede ayen bi the weye in which he cam fro the south in to Bethel, `til to the place, in which bifore he hadde sett tabernacle, bitwixe Bethel and Hay,
4 endaweni yelathi ayelenzile khona kuqala; uAbrama wasebiza ibizo leNkosi lapho.
in the place of the auter which he made bifore, and inwardli clepide there the name of the Lord.
5 LoLothi laye, owayehamba loAbrama, wayelezimvu lezinkomo lamathente.
But also flockis of scheep, and droues of oxun, and tabernaclis weren to Loth, that was with Abram;
6 Njalo ilizwe lalingebathwale ukuthi bahlale ndawonye, ngoba impahla yabo yayinengi, ukuthi babengeke bahlala ndawonye.
and the lond miyte not take hem, that thei schulden dwelle togidre, for the catel of hem was myche, and thei miyten not dwelle in comyn.
7 Kwasekusiba khona ukuxabana phakathi kwabelusi bezifuyo zikaAbrama labelusi bezifuyo zikaLothi. Ngalesosikhathi amaKhanani lamaPerizi ayehlala elizweni.
Wherfor also strijf was maad bitwixe the keperis of flockis of Abram and of Loth. Forsothe Chananei and Feresei dwelliden in that lond in that tyme.
8 UAbrama wasesithi kuLothi: Ake kungabi khona ukuxabana phakathi kwami lawe, laphakathi kwabelusi bami labelusi bakho, ngoba singamadoda osendo.
Therfor Abram seide to Loth, Y biseche, that no strijf be bitwixe me and thee, and bitwixe my scheepherdis and thi scheepherdis; for we ben britheren.
9 Ilizwe lonke kaliphambi kwakho yini? Yehlukana-ke lami; uba usiya kwesokhohlo, ngizakuya kwesokunene; kodwa uba kwesokunene, ngizakuya kwesokhohlo.
Lo! al the lond is bifore thee, Y biseche, departe thou fro me; if thou go to the left side, Y schal holde the riyt side; if thou chese the riyt side, Y schal go to the left side.
10 ULothi wasephakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona lonke igceke leJordani ukuthi lalithelelwe kuhle lonke. INkosi ingakachithi iSodoma leGomora, lalinjengensimu yeNkosi, njengelizwe leGibhithe, nxa usiya eZowari.
And so Loth reiside hise iyen, and seiy aboute al the cuntrei of Jordan, which was al moistid, bifor that the Lord distriede Sodom and Gomorre, as paradis of the Lord, and as Egipt, as men comen in to Segor.
11 ULothi wasezikhethela lonke igceke leJordani; uLothi wasesiya empumalanga; basebezehlukanisa omunye komunye.
And Loth chees to him the cuntre aboute Jordan, and departide fro the eest; and thei weren departid ech fro his brother.
12 UAbrama wahlala elizweni leKhanani, uLothi wasehlala emizini yemagcekeni, wamisa ithente lakhe eduze leSodoma.
Abram dwellide in the lond of Chanaan; sotheli Loth dwellide in townes aboute Jordan, and wonide in Sodom.
13 Kodwa abantu beSodoma babebabi babeyizoni phambi kweNkosi kakhulu.
Forsothe men of Sodom weren ful wickid, and synneris greetly bifore the Lord.
14 INkosi yasisithi kuAbrama emva kokuthi uLothi esehlukaniswe laye: Phakamisa-ke amehlo akho, ukhangele endaweni lapho okhona, ngasenyakatho langaseningizimu langasempumalanga langasentshonalanga,
And the Lord seide to Abram, aftir that Loth was departid fro him, Reise thin iyen forth riyt, and se fro the place in which thou art now, to the north and south, to the eest and west;
15 ngoba ilizwe lonke olibonayo ngizalinika wena, lakunzalo yakho kuze kube nininini.
Y schal yyue al the lond which thou seest to thee and to thi seed, til in to with outen ende.
16 Njalo ngizakwenza inzalo yakho ibe njengothuli lomhlaba, kuze kuthi uba umuntu engabala uthuli lomhlaba, izabalwa lenzalo yakho.
And Y schal make thi seed as the dust of erthe; if ony man may noumbre the dust of erthe, also he schal mowe noumbre thi seed.
17 Sukuma uhambe udabule ilizwe, ebudeni balo lebubanzini balo, ngoba ngizalinika wena.
Therfor rise thou, and passe thorou the lond in his lengthe and breede, for Y schal yyue it to thee.
18 UAbrama wasesusa amathente wafika wahlala ezihlahleni zama-okhi zeMamre, eziseHebroni, wakhela lapho iNkosi ilathi.
Therfor Abram, mouynge his tabernacle, cam and dwellide bisidis the valei of Mambre, which is in Ebron; and he bildide there an auter to the Lord.
