< 1 Mose 13 >
1 Abram tu firii Misraim. Ɔno, ne yere, Lot, nʼagyapadeɛ ne ne fiefoɔ nyinaa baa Negeb.
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.
2 Saa ɛberɛ no na Abram anya ne ho a ɔwɔ nyɛmmoa, dwetɛ ne sikakɔkɔɔ pii.
Pea naʻe koloaʻia ʻaupito ʻa ʻEpalame ʻi he fanga manu, mo e siliva, mo e koula.
3 Ɔfirii Negeb hɔ no, ɔdii atutena ara kɔduruu Bet-El, baabi a ɔdii ɛkan sii ne ntomadan a ɛwɔ Bet-El ne Ai ntam no.
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:
4 Ɛhɔ na kane no ɔsii nʼafɔrebukyia. Ɛhɔ nso na ɔkɔɔ so somm Awurade.
Ki he potu ʻoe ʻesifeilaulau, ʻaia naʻa ne tomuʻa fokotuʻu: pea naʻe ui ai ʻa ʻEpalame ki he huafa ʻo Sihova.
5 Na Lot a ɔne Abram nam no nso yɛ ɔdefoɔ a ɔwɔ nnwan, anantwie ne asomfoɔ bebree.
Pea naʻe maʻu ʻe Lote foki, ʻaia naʻe ō mo ʻEpalame, ʻae fanga sipi, mo e fanga manu, mo e ngaahi fale fehikitaki.
6 Esiane sɛ saa ɛberɛ no na Abram ne Lot nyinaa anya wɔn ho, na wɔwɔ nnwan, anantwie ne asomfoɔ pii enti, na wɔnsene asase no so.
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.
7 Na akasakasa taa baa Abram mmoahwɛfoɔ ne Lot mmoahwɛfoɔ no ntam. Saa ɛberɛ no na Kanaanfoɔ ne Perisifoɔ nso tete asase no so.
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.
8 Enti, Abram ka kyerɛɛ Lot sɛ, “Mesrɛ wo, mma akasakasa mma me ne wo anaa me mmoahwɛfoɔ ne wo mmoahwɛfoɔ ntam, ɛfiri sɛ, yɛyɛ anuanom.
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.
9 Ɛnyɛ asase no nyinaa na ɛda wʼanim yi? Ma yɛnni mpaapaemu. Sɛ wokɔ benkum a, mɛkɔ nifa, na sɛ wokɔ nifa nso a, mɛkɔ benkum.”
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.”
10 Lot hwɛɛ ne ho hyiaeɛ, hunuu sɛ asase a ɛda Yordan ho no yɛ asasebereɛ. Na nsuo wɔ mu baabiara te sɛ Eden turom anaasɛ Misraim asase a ɛda Soar fam hɔ no ara pɛ. Saa ɛberɛ no, na Awurade nnya nsɛee Sodom ne Gomora.
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.
11 Na Lot de nʼani kyerɛɛ apueeɛ fam, faa asase a ɛda Yordan ho no. Yei ne ɛkwan a Abram ne Lot faa so dii ntetemu no.
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.
12 Abram tenaa Kanaan asase so. Ɛnna Lot nso dii atutena wɔ nkuropɔn a ɛwowɔ nsase tamaa no so, na ɔkɔsii ne ntomadan wɔ baabi a ɛbɛn Sodom.
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.
13 Na nnipa a wɔwɔ Sodom kuro no mu no yɛ amumuyɛfoɔ a daa wɔyɛ bɔne akɛseakɛseɛ de tia Awurade.
Ka naʻe kovi ʻae kakai ʻo Sotoma, pea angahala ʻaupito ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
14 Lot tee ne ho firii Abram ho akyiri no, Awurade ka kyerɛɛ Abram sɛ, “Afei, ma wʼani so hwɛ atifi fam, anafoɔ fam, apueeɛ fam ne atɔeɛ fam.
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:
15 Mede asasetam a wʼani tua yi nyinaa bɛma wo ne wʼasefoɔ afebɔɔ.
He ko e fonua kotoa pē ʻoku ke mamata ai, te u foaki ia kiate koe, pea ki ho hako ʻo lauikuonga.
16 Mɛma wʼasefoɔ adɔɔso sɛ asase so mfuturo a obiara ntumi nkan.
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.
17 Sɔre, kɔ na kɔhwehwɛ asase no so nyinaa, ɛfiri sɛ, mede rema wo.”
Tuʻu hake, pea ʻalu atu ʻi he fonua, ʻi hono lōloa mo hono māukupu ʻo ia he te u foaki ia kiate koe.”
18 Enti, Abram tutuu ne ntomadan bɛtenaa odum kwaeɛ bi a ɛyɛ Mamrɛ dea wɔ Hebron. Ɛhɔ na ɔsii afɔrebukyia maa Awurade.
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.
