¹And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.

¹Laj Abram qui-el saß li naßajej Egipto rochben li rixakil. Ut cô ajcuiß laj Lot chirixeb. Queßxcßam li cßaßru reheb. Queßsukßi cuißchic saß li naßajej Neguev li cuan saß xcuênt Canaán.

²And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

²Numtajenak xbiomal laj Abram. Cuan x-oro. Cuan xplata ut cuan ajcuiß nabal lix quetômk.

³And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;

³Laj Abram queßel saß li naßajej Neguev ut queßnumeß saß li tenamit Bet-el. Queßcuulac cuißchic saß li naßajej bar quixyîb cuiß lix muhebâl junxil saß xyânkeb li cuib chi tenamit Hai ut Bet-el.

⁴Unto the place of the altar, which he had make there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

⁴Aßan li naßajej li quixyîb cuiß li artal junxil. Ut aran laj Abram quixlokßoni cuißchic li Kâcuaß Dios.

⁵And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.

⁵Laj Lot biom ajcuiß joß laj Abram. Nabal lix quetômk, ut nabal ajcuiß lix muhebâl yîbanbil riqßuin tßicr.

⁶And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.

⁶Xban nak numtajenak xqßuialeb lix quetômk chi xcaßbichaleb laj Lot ut laj Abram, incßaß natzßakloc li naßajej chokß reheb. Incßaß chic naru teßcuânk saß jun chi naßajej.

⁷And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.

⁷Ut saß li naßajej aßan cuanqueb laj cananeo joß eb ajcuiß laj ferezeo. Xban nak kßaxal latzß li naßajej, queßxpleti rib chi ribileb rib laj ilol xquetômk laj Abram riqßuineb laj ilol xquetômk laj Lot.

⁸And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be brethren.

⁸Laj Abram quixye re laj Lot: —Lâo kacomon kib. Incßaß taxak tâcuânk li chßaßajquilal chi kibil kib. Joß ajcuiß riqßuineb li kamôs. Incßaß nacuaj nak teßxpleti ribeb laj ilol reheb li kaquetômk.

⁹Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.

⁹Il li naßajej aßin numtajenak xnimal. ¿Cßaßut nak incßaß takajach kib? Sicß li naßajej li tâcuulak châcuu. Cui tâcuaj xic saß lâ nim, lâin tinxic saß lâ tzße. Cui tâcuaj xic saß lâ tzße, lâin tinxic saß lâ nim, chan laj Abram.

¹⁰And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.

¹⁰Laj Lot quiril nak cßajoß xchßinaßusal li ru takßa cuan chire li nimaß Jordán. Li naßajej aßan châbil ut nim. Nacuulac toj cuan cuiß li tenamit Zoar. Ut quiril nak cuan li haß chokß re li acuîmk. Chanchan li naßajej Egipto li queßel cuiß chak. Aßan quicßulman nak li Dios toj mâjiß naxsach li tenamit Sodoma ut Gomorra.

¹¹Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.

¹¹Laj Lot quixchap chokß re li ru takßa li nacana chire li nimaß Jordán, ut cô saß xjayal bar na-el cuiß chak li sakße. Joßcaßin nak queßxcanab ribeb laj Lot riqßuin laj Abram.

¹²Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.

¹²Laj Abram quicana saß li naßajej Canaán. Ut laj Lot cô saß li ru takßa cuanqueb cuiß li cocß tenamit. Quixyîb lix muhebâl nachß riqßuin li tenamit Sodoma.

¹³But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.

¹³Eb li cristian li cuanqueb aran saß li tenamit Sodoma numtajenak xmâqueb chiru li Kâcuaß Dios.

¹⁴And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:

¹⁴Nak mâ ani chic laj Lot, li Kâcuaß Dios quiâtinac riqßuin laj Abram ut quixye re: —Saß li naßajej li xakxôcat cuiß, ilon saß xcâ pacßalil li naßajej aßin.

¹⁵For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.

¹⁵Ut ilon chi us. Chixjunil li chßochß, li yôcat chi rilbal, aßan tinqßue âcue lâat chi junaj cua joß ajcuiß reheb lâ cualal âcßajol. Aßin li naßajej li xinyechißi âcue, chan.

¹⁶And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.

¹⁶—Tinqßueheb chi qßuiânc lâ cualal âcßajol. Incßaß târûk rajlanquileb xban xqßuialeb, joß li poks saß chßochß incßaß naru rajlanquil, chan.

¹⁷Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.

¹⁷Ut li Dios quixye ajcuiß re laj Abram: —Ayu ut beni chak xsaß li chßochß aßin. Tâqßue chak retal saß xcâ pacßalil xban nak li chßochß aßin tinqßue âcue, chan li Dios.Tojoßnak laj Abram quixjal lix naßajeb lix muhebâl. Ut cô chi cuânc saß li naßajej ji ru. Eb li cheß ji, aßan re laj Mamre. Li naßajej aßin nachß cuan riqßuin li tenamit Hebrón. Ut laj Abram quixyîb jun chic li artal aran re xlokßoninquil li Kâcuaß Dios.

¹⁸Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.

¹⁸Tojoßnak laj Abram quixjal lix naßajeb lix muhebâl. Ut cô chi cuânc saß li naßajej ji ru. Eb li cheß ji, aßan re laj Mamre. Li naßajej aßin nachß cuan riqßuin li tenamit Hebrón. Ut laj Abram quixyîb jun chic li artal aran re xlokßoninquil li Kâcuaß Dios.
