¹Now the LORD had said unto Abram, Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto a land that I will show thee:

¹Li Kâcuaß Dios quixye re laj Abram: —Tat-êlk saß li naßajej aßin. Tâcanabeb lâ cuechßalal ut tâcanab ajcuiß rochoch lâ yucuaß. Ut tatxic saß li naßajej li tincßut châcuu lâin, chan.

²And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing:

²—Eb lâ cualal âcßajol teßqßuiânk. Ut tânimânk lix cuanquileb saß ruchichßochß. Ut lâin tin-osobtesînk âcue. Ut lâ cßabaß naßnôk ru yalak bar. Saß âcßabaß lâat, nabaleb chic li cristian teßxcßul li usilal xban nak lâat sicßbil âcuu inban.

³And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

³Yalak ani tâbânûnk usilal âcue, tinbânu ajcuiß usilal re lâin. Li ani tâtzßektânânk âcue, lâin tintzßektânaheb ajcuiß aßan. Saß âcßabaß lâat, tincuosobtesiheb chixjunileb li cristian li teßcuânk saß ruchichßochß, chan li Dios re laj Abram.

⁴So Abram departed, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him: and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

⁴Laj Abram qui-el saß li naßajej aßan joß quiyeheß re xban li Dios. Cô ajcuiß laj Lot chirix. Oßlaju xcâcßâl chihab cuan re laj Abram nak qui-el chak saß lix tenamit Harán.

⁵And Abram took Sarai his wife, and Lot his brother's son, and all their substance that they had gathered, and the souls that they had gotten in Haran; and they went forth to go into the land of Canaan; and into the land of Canaan they came.

⁵Laj Abram quixcßam chirix lix Sarai li rixakil. Ut quixcßam ajcuiß chirix laj Lot, li ralal li rîtzßin. Ut quixcßam ajcuiß chixjunil li cßaßru cuan re li queßtam nak queßcuan saß li tenamit Harán. Quixcßameb ajcuiß lix môs chirix. Ut queßoc chi xic saß li tenamit Canaán ut yal jun nak coxeßxtau.

⁶And Abram passed through the land unto the place of Sichem, unto the plain of Moreh. And the Canaanite was then in the land.

⁶Laj Abram yô chi numecß saß li tenamit aßan nak coxtau li naßajej Siquem. Aran cuan jun tôn li cheß ji re jun li cuînk aj More xcßabaß. Saß li naßajej aßan cuanqueb laj cananeo.

⁷And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him.

⁷Saß li naßajej aßan quiâtinac li Dios riqßuin laj Abram ut quixye re, —Saß jun cutan tinqßue chixjunil li naßajej aßin reheb lâ cualal âcßajol, chan li Dios. Joßcan nak laj Abram quixtus li pec ut quixyîb jun lix artal re xlokßoninquil li Kâcuaß Dios.

⁸And he removed from thence unto a mountain on the east of Bethel, and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Hai on the east: and there he builded an altar unto the LORD, and called upon the name of the LORD.

⁸Chirix chic aßan, laj Abram cô saß li tzûl li cuan jun pacßal li tenamit Bet-el saß xjayal bar na-el cuiß chak li sakße. Quixyîb lix muhebâl saß li naßajej aßan saß xyânkeb li cuib chi tenamit Bet-el ut Hai. Ut laj Abram quixyîb aran jun chic li artal ut quixlokßoni li Kâcuaß Dios.

⁹And Abram journeyed, going on still toward the south.

⁹Laj Abram qui-oc cuißchic chi xic saß li naßajej Neguev.

¹⁰And there was a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt to sojourn there; for the famine was grievous in the land.

¹⁰Saß eb li cutan aßan quicuan jun li nimla cueßej saß li naßajej aßan. Xban nak mâcßaß li tzacaêmk, côeb laj Abram saß li naßajej Egipto ut aran queßcana.

¹¹And it came to pass, when he was come near to enter into Egypt, that he said unto Sarai his wife, Behold now, I know that thou art a fair woman to look upon:

¹¹Ut nak yô chi nachßoc riqßuin li tenamit Egipto, laj Abram quixye re li rixakil: —At Sarai, ninnau nak lâat kßaxal chßinaßusat.

¹²Therefore it shall come to pass, when the Egyptians shall see thee, that they shall say, This is his wife: and they will kill me, but they will save thee alive.

¹²Nak tateßril eb laj Egipto, teßxye nak lâat cuixakil. Naru tineßxcamsi lâin ut lâat tateßxcßam riqßuineb.

¹³Say, I pray thee, thou art my sister: that it may be well with me for thy sake; and my soul shall live because of thee.

¹³Tâbânu usilal, tâyeheb re nak lâat cuanab re nak incßaß tineßxcamsi. Chi joßcan tinâcol saß rukßeb laj Egipto, chan laj Abram re li rixakil.

¹⁴And it came to pass, that, when Abram was come into Egypt, the Egyptians beheld the woman that she was very fair.

¹⁴Laj Abram queßcuulac saß li naßajej Egipto. Ut eb laj Egipto queßril nak chßinaßus na-iloc li ixk.

¹⁵The princes also of Pharaoh saw her, and commended her before Pharaoh: and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.

¹⁵Laj faraón, aßan li acuabej re li naßajej aßan. Eb laj tenkßom re laj faraón queßril ajcuiß nak chßinaßus li ixk ut queßxye re: —Us li ixk aßan chokß âcue, chanqueb. Ut lix Sarai quicßameß saß rochoch laj faraón.

¹⁶And he entreated Abram well for her sake: and he had sheep, and oxen, and he asses, and menservants, and maidservants, and she asses, and camels.

¹⁶Xban nak laj Abram quixkßaxtesi lix Sarai saß rukß laj faraón, nabal lix râbal quiqßueheß re laj Abram. Laj faraón quixqßue xquetômk, quixqßue xcuacax, quixqßue xbûr ut quixqßue ajcuiß lix môs cuînk ut lix môs ixk. Ut quiqßueheß ajcuiß xnînki xul camello xcßabaß.

¹⁷And the LORD plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai Abram's wife.

¹⁷Ut li Kâcuaß Dios quixqßue chixtojbal xmâc laj faraón xban nak quixcßam saß li rochoch lix Sarai. Quixtakla jun raylal saß xbêneb li cuanqueb saß rochoch laj faraón ut queßyajer chixjunileb.

¹⁸And Pharaoh called Abram and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife?

¹⁸Laj faraón quixtakla xbokbal laj Abram, ut quixye re: —¿Cßaßut nak xabânu cue chi joßcaßin? Ut, ¿cßaßut nak incßaß xaye cue nak âcuixakil lix Sarai?

¹⁹Why saidst thou, She is my sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now therefore behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way.

¹⁹¿Cßaßut nak xaye cue nak âcuanab aßan? Lâin xincßam raj chokß cuixakil xban nak incßaß xaye cue nak âcuixakil. Cueß lâ cuixakil. Cßam ut ayu. Elen saß li tenamit aßin, chan re laj Abram.Laj faraón quixtaklaheb lix môs chi cßamoc be chiru laj Abram. Chi joßcan laj Abram qui-el rochben li rixakil. Queßxcßam chirix chixjunil li cßaßru cuan re.

²⁰And Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had.

²⁰Laj faraón quixtaklaheb lix môs chi cßamoc be chiru laj Abram. Chi joßcan laj Abram qui-el rochben li rixakil. Queßxcßam chirix chixjunil li cßaßru cuan re.
