1 Pea naʻe ʻalu hake ʻa ʻEpalame mei ʻIsipite, ko ia, mo hono uaifi, mo ia kotoa pē naʻa ne maʻu, pea naʻa nau ō mo Lote, ki he feituʻu tonga.
Aa le nionjoñe boake Mitsraime ao t’i Avrame naho i vali’ey naho ze vara’e iaby, mb’ atimoy añe, vaho nindre ama’e t’i Lote.
2 Pea naʻe koloaʻia ʻaupito ʻa ʻEpalame ʻi he fanga manu, mo e siliva, mo e koula.
Fa nimpañarivo an-kare naho volafoty vaho volamena t’i Avrame.
3 Pea ʻalu ai pe ia ʻi hono fononga mei he feituʻu tonga ʻo aʻu ki Peteli, ki he potu naʻe tuʻu ai ʻa hono fale fehikitaki he kamataʻanga, ʻi he vahaʻa ʻo Peteli mo ʻAi:
Ie boak’ amy atimoy añe le nionjoñe sikal’ amy Betele, amy namboare’e kibohotse añivo’ i Betele naho i Aý am-pifotora’ey,
4 Ki he potu ʻoe ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia naʻa ne tomuʻa fokotuʻu: pea naʻe ui ai ʻa ʻEpalame ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
amy nañoreña’e kitrely valoha’ey. Teo ty nikanjia’ i Avrame ty tahina’ Iehovà.
5 Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Lote foki, ʻaia naʻe ō mo ʻEpalame, ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga manu, mo e ngaahi fale fehikitaki.
Nanam-pirai-troke naho mpirai-lia naho kibohotse ka t’i Lote mpindre fañavelo ama’e.
6 Pea naʻe siʻi ʻae fonua kiate kinaua ke na nofo fakataha: he naʻe lahi ʻaupito ʻena meʻa, ko ia naʻe ʻikai ai te na faʻa nofo fakataha.
Fe tsy nahatsapake iareo roe i taney, hitraofa’ iareo, fa loho bey ty vara’ iareo kanao tsy nahafiharo toboke.
7 Pea naʻe ai ha kē ʻi he kau tauhimanu ʻa ʻEpalame mo e kau tauhimanu ʻa Lote: pea naʻe kei nofo ʻae kakai Kēnani mo e kau Pelisi ʻi he fonua, ʻi he kuonga ko ia.
Nifampibozizy amy zao o mpiara-lia-rai’ i Avrameo naho o mpiara’ i Loteo. Nimoneñe amy taney henane zay o nte-Kanàneo naho o nte-Perizeo.
8 Pea naʻe pehē ʻe ʻEpalame kia Lote, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke ʻoua naʻa ai ha kē ʻiate kitaua, pe ʻi heʻeku kau tauhimanu mo hoʻo kau tauhimanu; he ʻoku ta kāinga.
Aa le hoe t’i Avrame amy Lote, Ee te tsy hifañolañe tika naho o mpiara’oo naho o ahikoo, amy te mpirahalahy tika.
9 ʻIkai ʻoku ʻi ho ʻao ʻae fonua kotoa? ʻOku ou kole kiate koe, ke mavahe koe ʻiate au: kapau te ke ʻi he toʻohema pea te u ʻalu au ki he toʻomataʻu; pea kapau te ke ʻalu ki he toʻomataʻu, pea te u ʻalu au ki he toʻohema.”
Aa vaho tsy hene miatrek’ azo o taneo? Misitaha amako arè, aa ihe homb’ am-pitàn-kavia mb’eo, le ho mb’an-kavana iraho; ke ihe mb’ am-pitàn-kavana, le izaho mb’ an-kavia.
10 Pea naʻe sio hake ʻa Lote, pea vakai ʻe ia ki he fonua fakalelei kotoa pē ʻo Sioatani, kuo lahi ʻae vai ʻi he potu kotoa pē. ʻI he teʻeki ke fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻa Sotoma mo Komola, naʻe hangē ia ko e ngoue ʻa Sihova, ʻo tatau mo e fonua ko ʻIsipite, ʻi he halaifonua ki Soa.
Nampiandra-pihaino t’i Lote, nahatalake te soa fitondrake iaby ty vavatane’ Iordaney eñe manahake ty golobo’ Iehovà, hambañe an-tane Mitsraime amy figodañañe mb’e Tsoare mb’eoy, (taolo’ ty nandrotsaha’ Iehovà i Sedome naho i Amorà).
11 Pea naʻe fili ʻe Lote maʻana, ʻae fonua tokalelei kotoa pē ʻo Sioatani; pea fononga ʻa Lote ki he feituʻu hahake: pea naʻe fakamāvae ʻakinaua.
Jinobo’ i Lote i vavatane’ Iordaney iabiy naho nañavelo mb’atiñanañe mb’eo t’i Lote, ie nifampiria.
12 Naʻe nofo ʻa ʻEpalame ʻi he fonua ko Kēnani, pea nofo ʻa Lote ʻi he ngaahi kolo ʻoe tokalelei, pea naʻa ne fokotuʻu hono fale fehikitaki ke hanga ki Sotoma.
Nimoneñe an-tane Kanàney t’i Avrame vaho nimoneñe amo rova’ i vavataneio t’i Lote vaho nañoren-kiboho mb’e Sedome añe.
13 Ka naʻe kovi ʻae kakai ʻo Sotoma, pea angahala ʻaupito ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
Ni‑lo tsereke o nte-Sedomeo, vata’e bei-hakeo am’ Iehovà.
14 Pea naʻe folofola ʻa Sihova kia ʻEpalame, hili ʻae māvae ʻa Lote meiate ia, “Tangaki hake ni ho mata, pea sio mei he potu ʻoku ke ʻi ai ki he tokelau mo e tonga, pea ki he hahake, mo hihifo:
Hoe t’Iehovà amy Avrame, naho fa nisitaha’ i Lote. Ampiandrao fihaino henaneo vaho mitalakesa boak’ amo iambesara’oo mañavaratse naho mañatimo naho maniñana vaho mañandrefa;
15 He ko e fonua kotoa pē ʻoku ke mamata ai, te u foaki ia kiate koe, pea ki ho hako ʻo lauikuonga.
amy te hatoloko azo naho amo tarira’o kitro-añ’ afe’eo ze hene tane isa’o.
16 Pea te u fakatupu ho hako ke hangē ko e efu ʻoe kelekele: pea kapau ʻe faʻa lau ʻe ha tangata ʻae efu ʻoe kelekele, pehē, ʻe lau foki ʻa ho hako.
Hampiraeko ami’ty lembo’ ty tane toy o tarira’oo; aa naho mahaiake ty debo’ ty tane toy t’indaty le mete hiaheñe ka o tarira’oo.
17 Tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu ʻi he fonua, ʻi hono lōloa mo hono māukupu ʻo ia he te u foaki ia kiate koe.”
Miongaha arè le rangao ty andàva’ o taneo naho ty am-pohe’e, fa hene hatoloko azo.
18 Pea naʻe toki hiki ʻe ʻEpalame hono fale fehikitaki, pea haʻu ʻo nofo ʻi he fonua tokalelei ʻo Mamili, ʻaia ʻoku ʻi Hepeloni, pea naʻe fokotuʻu ai ʻae ʻesifeilaulau kia Sihova.
Aa le nasi’ i Avrame ty kijà’e le nimb’eo naho nitobe amo hatae jabajaba’ i Mamrè e Khebroneo vaho nañoreñe kitrely am’ Iehovà.
