Genesis

13

1¶ Na ka haere mai a Aperama i Ihipa, ki te tonga, raua ko tana wahine, me ana mea katoa, me Rota hoki.
1And Abram goeth up from Egypt (he and his wife, and all that he hath, and Lot with him) towards the south;
2He nui rawa hoki nga kararehe, te hiriwa me te koura ki a Aperama.
2and Abram [is] exceedingly wealthy in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3Na ka turia mai e ia, a ka haere i te tonga a tae noa ki Peteere, ki te wahi i oroko tu ai tona teneti, i waenganui o Peteere, o Hai,
3And he goeth on his journeyings from the south, even unto Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the commencement, between Bethel and Hai —
4Ki te wahi i te aata i hanga e ia ki reira i te timatanga: na ka karanga a Aperama i reira ki te ingoa o Ihowa.
4unto the place of the altar which he made there at the first, and there doth Abram preach in the name of Jehovah.
5¶ Na ko Rota, i haere tahi nei i a Aperama, he hipi ano ana, he kau, he teneti.
5And also to Lot, who is going with Abram, there hath been sheep and oxen and tents;
6A kihai i nui te whenua mo raua, hei nohoanga tahitanga mo raua: he nui hoki o raua rawa, te ahei raua te moho tahi.
6and the land hath not suffered them to dwell together, for their substance hath been much, and they have not been able to dwell together;
7Na ka tautohe ki a ratou nga hepara a Aperama me nga hepara a Rota; na i taua whenua e noho ana te Kanaani me te Perihi i taua wa.
7and there is a strife between those feeding Abram`s cattle and those feeding Lot`s cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite [are] then dwelling in the land.
8Na ka mea a Aperama ki a Rota, Kaua ra taua e whakatete ki a taua, kaua hoki a taua hepara e whakatete ki a ratou; he teina nei hoki, he tuakana taua.
8And Abram saith unto Lot, `Let there not, I pray thee, be strife between me and thee, and between my shepherds and thy shepherds, for we [are] men — brethren.
9Kahore ianei te whenua katoa i tou aroaro? tena, wehe atu koe i ahau: ki te anga koe ki maui, ka ahu ahau ki matau, a ki te haere koe ki matau, na ka ahu ahau ki maui.
9Is not all the land before thee? be parted, I pray thee, from me; if to the left, then I to the right; and if to the right, then I to the left.`
10¶ Na ka anga ake nga kanohi o Rota, ka titiro ki te mania katoa o Horano, he makuku katoa, i te mea kahore ano kia whakangaromia noatia a Horoma, a Komora e Ihowa, he pera ano me te kari a Ihowa, me te whenua hoki o Ihipa, i tou haerenga ki Toara.
10And Lot lifteth up his eyes, and seeth the whole circuit of the Jordan that it [is] all a watered country (before Jehovah`s destroying Sodom and Gomorrah, as Jehovah`s garden, as the land of Egypt,) in thy coming toward Zoar,
11Na ka whiriwhiria e Rota ko te mania katoa o Horano mana; na ka haere a Rota whaka te rawhiti: a ka wehe raua i a raua.
11and Lot chooseth for himself the whole circuit of the Jordan; and Lot journeyeth from the east, and they are parted — a man from his companion;
12Ko Aperama i noho kite whenua o Kanaana, ko Rota i noho ki nga pa o te mania, a whakaturia ana e ia tona teneti ki Horoma.
12Abram hath dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot hath dwelt in the cities of the circuit, and tenteth unto Sodom;
13Na he kino nga tangata o Horoma, he hunga hara rawa ki te aroaro o Ihowa.
13and the men of Sodom [are] evil, and sinners before Jehovah exceedingly.
14¶ Na ka mea a Ihowa ki a Aperama, i muri i te wehenga atu o Rota i a ia, Anga ake ou kanohi, titiro atu hoki i te wahi e tu na koe, ki te raki, ki te tonga, ki te rawhiti, ki te hauauru:
14And Jehovah said unto Abram, after Lot`s being parted from him, `Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and look from the place where thou [art], northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;
15Ko te whenua katoa hoki e kite atu na koe, ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe, ki tou uri hoki ake tonu atu.
15for the whole of the land which thou are seeing, to thee I give it, and to thy seed — to the age.
16Ka meinga hoki e ahau ou uri kia rite ki te puehu o te whenua: a ki te ahei i tetahi tangata te tatau i te puehu o te whenua, e taua ano hoki ou uri.
16And I have set thy seed as dust of the earth, so that, if one is able to number the dust of the earth, even thy seed is numbered;
17Whakatika, haereerea te whenua, tona roa, tona whanui; no te mea ka hoatu e ahau ki a koe.
17rise, go up and down through the land, to its length, and to its breadth, for to thee I give it.`
18Na nekehia ana tona teneti e Aperama, a haere ana, noho ana ki nga oki i Mamere, ki era i Heperona, a hanga ana e ia tetahi aata ma Ihowa ki reira.
18And Abram tenteth, and cometh, and dwelleth among the oaks of Mamre, which [are] in Hebron, and buildeth there an altar to Jehovah.
