< Genesis 20 >

1 Afterward Abraham departed thence toward the South countrey and dwelled betweene Cadesh and Shur, and soiourned in Gerar.
Basa ma, Abraham lali mia Mamre, nisiꞌ rae Negeb seriꞌ ona, de leo sia kambo Kades no Sur taladꞌa na. Te nda dooꞌ sa ma, ana lali nisiꞌ kambo Gerar fai.
2 And Abraham said of Sarah his wife, She is my sister. Then Abimelech King of Gerar sent and tooke Sarah.
Nafadꞌe atahori sia naa nae, Sara naa, eni odꞌi na. Naa de, Abimelek, mane Gerar a, denu atahori nara reu roꞌe Sara, fo ro e nisiꞌ ume panggat na.
3 But God came to Abimelech in a dreame by night, and said to him, Beholde, thou art but dead, because of the woman, which thou hast taken: for she is a mans wife.
Tetembaꞌ esa, Lamatualain natudꞌu Aon neu maneꞌ sia meit. Ana olaꞌ nae, “Ho mae mate, ia ena! Huu haꞌi mala atahori sao na.”
4 (Notwithstanding Abimelech had not yet come neere her) And he said, Lord, wilt thou slay euen the righteous nation?
Te Abimelek naselu nae, “Lamatualain! Au nda feꞌe kois inaꞌ naa sa. Au nda sala sa. Abraham mana nae, inaꞌ naa eni odꞌi na. Ma inaꞌ naa o nataa taꞌo naa boe. Naa de, au denu reu haꞌi e no rala meuꞌ. Dadꞌi Lamatualain afiꞌ fee salaꞌ neu au!”
5 Said not he vnto me, She is my sister? yea, and she her selfe said, He is my brother: with an vpright minde, and innocent handes haue I done this.
6 And God saide vnto him by a dreame, I knowe that thou diddest this euen with an vpright minde, and I kept thee also that thou shouldest not sinne against me: therefore suffered I thee not to touche her.
Lamatualain nataa nae, “Memaꞌ Au bubꞌuluꞌ rala ma ndos. Naa de, Au tao fo ho afiꞌ kois inaꞌ naa. Naa fo, ho nda tao salaꞌ neu Au saꞌ boe.
7 Now then deliuer the man his wife againe: for he is a Prophet, and he shall pray for thee that thou mayest liue: but if thou deliuer her not againe, be sure that thou shalt die the death, thou, and all that thou hast.
Ia naa, haitua baliꞌ inaꞌ naa neu sao na. Eni, Au mana ola-ola Ngga. De moꞌe fo ana hule-oꞌe fee nggo fo afiꞌ mate. Te mete ma ho nda fee baliꞌ inaꞌ naa sa, musunedꞌa malolole! Te ho mo basa atahori mara, mate a ia ena.”
8 Then Abimelech rising vp early in ye morning, called all his seruants, and tolde all these things vnto them, and the men were sore afraid.
Mbila fefetu ana naa, maneꞌ a noꞌe basa pagau nara, de dui meit na. Boe ma basa se ramatau.
9 Afterward Abimelech called Abraham, and said vnto him, What hast thou done vnto vs? and what haue I offeded thee, that thou hast brought on me and on my kingdome this great sinne? thou hast done things vnto me that ought not to be done.
Basa ma maneꞌ a noꞌe Abraham, de natane nae, “Au tao salaꞌ saa neu nggo, losa muꞌusususaꞌ au o manggarau nggara taꞌo ia? Ho afiꞌ tao dala deꞌulakaꞌ onaꞌ ia.
10 So Abimelech said vnto Abraham, What sawest thou that thou hast done this thing?
Ho duꞌa saa, losa ho tao taꞌo ia?”
11 Then Abraham answered, Because I thought thus, Surely the feare of God is not in this place, and they will slay me for my wiues sake.
Abraham nataa nae, “Ama maneꞌ! Au duꞌa basa hei nda mihine Lamatualain sa. De neꞌo ruma rae tao risa au, fo haꞌi rala sao ngga.
12 Yet in very deede she is my sister: for she is the daughter of my father, but not the daughter of my mother, and she is my wife.
Memaꞌ au olaꞌ tebꞌe, ae eni, au odꞌi ngga. Hai ruꞌa nggi amaꞌ esa, te esaꞌ ina na. Naa de, hai esa sao esa.
13 Nowe when God caused me to wander out of my fathers house, I said then to her, This is thy kindnes that thou shalt shewe vnto me in all places where we come, Say thou of me, He is my brother.
Dadꞌi leleꞌ Lamatualain denu hai misiꞌ mamana dodꞌooꞌ, au ufadꞌe sao ngga ae, ‘Mete ma hai mii sia bee-bꞌee, fo atahori ratane hai ruꞌa nggi neꞌebꞌue ma, mete ma ho sue au, naa mutaa mae hita odꞌi-aꞌa.’”
14 Then tooke Abimelech sheepe and beeues, and men seruants, and women seruants, and gaue them vnto Abraham, and restored him Sarah his wife.
Basa ma, mane Abimelek fee baliꞌ Sara. Ana olaꞌ no e nae, “Ia naa, au bae aꞌa ma doi fulaꞌ rifon esa, fo dadꞌi bukti oi, au nda tao salaꞌ saa-saa o nggo saꞌ boe. Naa fo, basa atahori rahine boe!” Maneꞌ a o olaꞌ no Abraham nae, “Abraham! Au nusa ngga ia, nenesoiꞌ soa neu nggo. Mae muu leo sia bee o, neu.” Ana fee Abraham sapi ma hiek-lombo. Ana o fee ate inaꞌ ma touꞌ boe.
15 And Abimelech saide, Beholde, my land is before thee: dwell where it pleaseth thee.
16 Likewise to Sarah he said, Beholde, I haue giuen thy brother a thousand pieces of siluer: behold, he is the vaile of thine eyes to all that are with thee, and to all others: and she was thus reproued.
17 Then Abraham prayed vnto God, and God healed Abimelech, and his wife, and his women seruants: and they bare children.
Fefeu na, LAMATUALAIN ena mamana anaꞌ mia basa inaꞌ mana sia Abimelek nusa na, huu ana rambas nala Abraham sao na. Ana fee baliꞌ Sara nisiꞌ sao na ma, Abraham hule-oꞌe, de Lamatualain soi baliꞌ inaꞌ ra mamana ana nara. De ara bisa bꞌonggi seluꞌ fai.
18 For the Lord had shut vp euery wombe of the house of Abimelech, because of Sarah Abrahams wife.
