Kinohi 13

1 PII hou mai la o Aberama mai Aigupita mai, oia me kana wahine, a me kana mau mea a pau, a me ia no o Lota, i kau wahi o ke kukuluhema.

And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.

2 Ua waiwai nui loa o Aberama i na holoholona, i ke kala a me ke gula.

And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.

3 Hele ae la ia i kona hele ana mai ke kukuluhema mai a Betela, kahi i ku ai o kona halelewa mamua, mawaena o Betela a me Hai;

And he returned by the way that he came, from the south to Bethel, to the place where before he had pitched his tent between Bethel and Hai:

4 Kahi o ke kuahu ana i haua'i mamua: ilaila o Aberama i kahea aku ai i ka inoa o Iehova.

In the place of the altar which he had made before; and there he called upon the name of the Lord.

5 A o Lota hoi, ka mea i hele pu me Aberama, he hipa no kana me na bipi a me na halelewa.

But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.

6 Aole i pono ka aina no laua, i noho pu ai laua, no ka nui o ko laua waiwai, aole i hiki ia laua ke noho pu.

Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.

7 Hakaka ae la ka poe kahubipi a Aberama me ka poe kahubipi a Lota: e noho ana no ka Kanaana a me ka Perezi ma ia aina ia manawa.

Whereupon also there arose a strife between the herdsmen of Abram and of Lot. And at that time the Chanaanite and the Pherezite dwelled in that country.

8 I aku la o Aberama ia Lota, Ea, aole make hakaka kaua, kekahi i kekahi, aole hoi ka'u poe kahubipi me kau poe kahubipi; no ka mea, he mau hoahanau kaua.

Abram therefore said to Lot: Let there be no quarrel, I beseech thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen: for we are brethren.

9 Aole anei ma kou alo ka aina a pau? ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e hookaawale kaua: ina oe ma ka lima hema, alaila e hele au ma ka lima akau; a ma ka lima akau oe, alaila e hele au ma ka lima hema.

Behold the whole land is before thee: depart from me I pray thee: if thou wilt go to the left hand, I will take the right: if thou choose the right hand, I will pass to the left.

10 Alawa ae la ko Lota mau maka, ike aku la i na wahi papu o Ioredane, he nui ka wai ma ia wahi a pau i kou hele ana mai i Zoara, mamua o ko Iehova luku ana ia Sodoma a me Gomora, e like me ka mahinaai o Iehova, a e like me ka aina i Aigupita.

And Lot, lifting up his eyes, saw all the country about the Jordan, which was watered throughout, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha, as the paradise of the Lord, and like Egypt as one comes to Segor.

11 Alaila, wae iho la o Lota i ka papu a pau o Ioredane: a hele aku la o Lota ma ka hikina, a hookaawale ae la laua i ke kekahi me kekahi.

And Lot chose to himself the country about the Jordan, and he departed from the east: and they were separated one brother from the other.

12 Noho iho la o Aberama ma ka aina i Kanaana, a noho aku la o Lota ma na kulanakauhale o ua papu la, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa ma Sodoma.

Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan; and Lot abode in the towns that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.

13 A o na kanaka o Sodoma, he poe hewa lakou, he lawehala loa imua o Iehova.

And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord, beyond measure.

14 Olelo mai la o Iehova ia Aberama mahope mai o ko Lota hookaawale ana ae mai ona aku la, E alawa ae oe i kou mau maka, a e nana aku mai kou wahi e noho nei, i ke kukuluakau a i ke kukuluhema, a i ka hikina hoi a i ke komohana:

And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him: Lift up thy eyes, and look from the place wherein thou now art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west.

15 No ka mea, o ka aina a pau au e ike nei, na'u ia e haawi aku nou, a no kau poe mamo mahope mau loa aku.

All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.

16 E hoomahuahua aku no wau i kau poe mamo e like me ka lepo o ka honua: ina e hiki i ke kanaka ke helu i na huna lepo o ka honua, alaila e heluia kau poe mamo.

And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: if any man be able to number the dust of the earth, he shall be able to number thy seed also.

17 E ku ae; e kaahele i ka aina ma kona loa a ma kona laula; no ka mea, na'u no ia e haawi aku nou.

Arise and walk through the land in the length, and in the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.

18 Alaila lawe ae la o Aberama i kona halelewa, hele aku la ia a noho iho la ma na laau oka no Mamere, aia no ma Heberona, a hana iho la ia ilaila i kuahu no Iehova.

So Abram removing his tent came and dwelt by the vale of Mambre, which is in Hebron: and he built there an altar to the Lord.
