1Now the LORD said to Abram, “Leave your country, and your relatives, and your father’s house, and go to the land that I will show you.
1I OLELO mai o Iehova ia Aberama, E hele aku oe mai kou aina aku, a mai kou poe hoahanau aku, a mai ka hale o kou makuakane aku, a hiki i ka aina a'u e kuhikuhi aku ai ia oe.
2I will make of you a great nation. I will bless you and make your name great. You will be a blessing.
2A e hoolilo au ia oe i lahuikanaka nui, e hoomaikai aku hoi au ia oe, e hookaulana hoi au i kou inoa, a e lilo oe i mea e pomaikai ai.
3I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who treats you with contempt. All the families of the earth will be blessed through you.”
3E hoopomaikai aku hoi au i ka poe hoomaikai ia oe, a e hoino aku au i ka mea hoino ia oe, a ia oe e pomaikai ai na ohana a pau o ka honua.
4So Abram went, as the LORD had told him. Lot went with him. Abram was seventy-five years old when he departed from Haran.
4Hele aku la o Aberama e like me ka Iehova i olelo mai ai ia ia; a hele pu o Lota me ia. He kanahiku kumamalima na makahiki o Aberama, i kona wa i hele mai ai mai Harana mai.
5Abram took Sarai his wife, Lot his brother’s son, all their possessions that they had gathered, and the people whom they had acquired in Haran, and they went to go into the land of Canaan. They entered into the land of Canaan.
5Lawe ae la o Aberama i kana wahine ia Sarai, a me Lota ke keiki a kona kaikuaana, a me ka waiwai a pau a lakou i hoiliili ai, a me na ohua a pau i loaa ia lakou ma Harana; a puka mai la lakou e hele mai i ka aina o Kanaana; a hiki mai la lakou i ka aina o Kanaana.
6Abram passed through the land to the place of Shechem, to the oak of Moreh. At that time, Canaanites were in the land.
6Kaahele ae la o Aberama i ka aina, a hiki aku la i kahi o Sikema, i ka laau oka o More. E noho ana no na mamo a Kanaana ma ia aina ia manawa.
7The LORD appeared to Abram and said, “I will give this land to your offspring.” He built an altar there to the LORD, who had appeared to him.
7Ikea ae la o Iehova e Aberama, i mai la ia, E haawi aku no wau i keia aina no kau poe mamo: malaila oia i hana'i i kuahu no Iehova, ka mea i ikea e ia.
8He left from there to go to the mountain on the east of Bethel and pitched his tent, having Bethel on the west, and Ai on the east. There he built an altar to the LORD and called on the LORD’s name.
8Hele aku la ia mai ia wahi aku a ka puu ma ka hikina o Betela, a kukulu iho la i kona halelewa, o Betela ma ke komohana, a o Hai ma ka hikina: malaila oia i hana'i i kuahu no Iehova, a hea aku la ia i ka inoa o Iehova.
9Abram traveled, still going on toward the South.
9Hele hou aku la o Aberama e neenee ana i ke kukuluhema.
10There was a famine in the land. Abram went down into Egypt to live as a foreigner there, for the famine was severe in the land.
10He wi ma ia aina; a hele aku la o Aberama ilalo i Aigupita e noho malihini malaila, no ka mea, ua nui loa ka wi ma ka aina.
11When he had come near to enter Egypt, he said to Sarai his wife, “See now, I know that you are a beautiful woman to look at.
11A kokoke aku la ia e komo i Aigupita, i aku la ia i kana wahine ia Sarai, Eia hoi ke ike nei au he wahine maikai oe ke nanaia'ku:
12It will happen that when the Egyptians see you, they will say, ‘This is his wife.’ They will kill me, but they will save you alive.
12Nolaila, a ike mai ko Aigupita ia oe, e olelo auanei lakou, Eia kana wahine; a e pepehi mai lakou ia'u, a e hoola ae lakou ia oe.
13Please say that you are my sister, that it may be well with me for your sake, and that my soul may live because of you.”
13Ke nonoi aku nei au ia oe, e i aku oe, he kaikuwahine oe no'u, i pomaikai ai au ia oe, a e malamaia kuu ola nou.
14When Abram had come into Egypt, some Egyptians saw that the woman was very beautiful.
14A hiki aku la o Aberama i Aigupita, ike mai la ko Aigupita i ka wahine he maikai loa.
15The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh; and the woman was taken into Pharaoh’s house.
15A ike mai la na luna a Parao ia ia, hoomaikai lakou ia ia imua o Parao, a ua laweia aku la ua wahine la ma ka hale o Parao.
16He dealt well with Abram for her sake. He had sheep, cattle, male donkeys, male servants, female servants, female donkeys, and camels.
16Lokomaikai mai la oia ia Aberama no Sarai: a ia ia na hipa, na bipi, na hoki, na kauwakane, na kauwawahine, na hokiwahine, a me na kamelo.
17The LORD afflicted Pharaoh and his house with great plagues because of Sarai, Abram’s wife.
17Hooeha mai la o Iehova ia Parao a me kona poe ohua i na mai eha loa, no Sarai ka wahine a Aberama.
18Pharaoh called Abram and said, “What is this that you have done to me? Why didn’t you tell me that she was your wife?
18Kahea mai la o Parao ia Aberama, i mai la, Heaha keia mea au i hana mai ai ia'u? No ke aha la i hai ole mai oe ia'u o kau wahine ia?
19Why did you say, ‘She is my sister,’ so that I took her to be my wife? Now therefore, see your wife, take her, and go your way.”
19No ke aha la oe i olelo mai ai, O ko'u kaikuwahine ia, i mea e lawe ai au ia ia i wahine na'u? Eia hoi kau wahine, e lawe oe ia ia, a e hele aku.
20Pharaoh commanded men concerning him, and they escorted him away with his wife and all that he had.
20Kauoha aku la o Parao i kona poe kanaka nona, a hoihoi mai la lakou ia ia, me kana wahine, a me kana mau mea a pau.
