Genesis 15
1 ଏହି ସବୁ ଘଟିୟିବା ପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କର ବାକ୍ଯ ଦର୍ଶନ ରେ ଅବ୍ରାମ ନିକଟକୁ ଆସିଲେ। ଏହା କହି, ହେ ଅବ୍ରାମ ଭୟ କର ନାହିଁ। ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଢାଲ। ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ମହାପୁରସ୍କାର ଦବେି।
2 କିନ୍ତୁ ଅବ୍ରାମ କହିଲେ, ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପରମେଶ୍ବର, ମାେତେ ପୁରସ୍କାର ଦଇେ କଣ ଭଲ ହବେ? ମୁଁ ସନ୍ତାନ ବିନା ମରିବାକୁ ଯାଉଛି। ସେଥିପାଇଁ ଦମ୍ମସକରେ ମାରେ ମୁଖ୍ଯ ସବେକ ଇଲିଯଜେର ମାରେ ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି ଅଧିକାର କରିବ।
3 ପୁଣି ଅବ୍ରାମ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ମାେତେ ସନ୍ତାନ ଦଲେ ନାହିଁ। ସେଥିପାଇଁ ମାେ ଗୃହର ଜଣେ ସଦସ୍ଯ ମାରେ ଉତ୍ତରାଧିକାରୀ ହବେ।
4 ତା'ପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଅବ୍ରାମକୁ କହିଲେ, ଦେଖ ସହେି ଦାସଟି ତୁମ୍ଭର ଉତ୍ତରାଧିକାରୀ ହବେ ନାହିଁ। ମାତ୍ର ଯେ ତୁମ୍ଭ ଔରସ ରେ ଜାତ ହବେ, ସହେି ତୁମ୍ଭର ଉତ୍ତରାଧିକାରୀ ହବେ।
5 ଏହାପରେ ପରମେଶ୍ବର ତାଙ୍କୁ ବାହାରକୁ ନେଲେ ଓ କହିଲେ, ଉର୍ଦ୍ଧ ରେ ଆକାଶକୁ ଦେଖ ଏବଂ ତାରାଗଣ ଗଣନା କର, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଯଦି ତାକୁ ଗଣନା କରିପାରିବ। ଏବଂ ସେ ମଧ୍ଯ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭର ବଂଶଧର ତାରାଗଣ ପରି ବହୁସଂଖ୍ଯକ ହବେେ।
6 ଅବ୍ରାମ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କୁ ବିଶ୍ବାସ କଲେ ଏବଂ ପରମେଶ୍ବର ତା'ର ବିଶ୍ବାସକୁ ଧାର୍ମିକତା କାର୍ୟ୍ଯ ବୋଲି ବିବଚେନା କଲେ।
7 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ସହେି ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ, ୟିଏ ତୁମ୍ଭମାନଙ୍କୁ କଲଦୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଊରଠାରୁ ଏହି ଦେଶ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦବୋପାଇଁ ବାହାର କରି ଆଣିଲି।
8 କିନ୍ତୁ ଅବ୍ରାମ କହିଲେ, ହେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ, ମାରେ ପ୍ରଭୁ ମୁଁ ଯେ ଏ ଦେଶର ଅଧିକାରୀ ହବେି, ତାହା ମୁଁ କିପରି ଜାଣିବି?
9 ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଉତ୍ତର ଦେଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏକ ତିନି ବର୍ଷର ବାଛୁରୀ, ଗୋଟିଏ ତିନି ବର୍ଷର ମାଇ ଛଳେି, ଗୋଟିଏ ତିନି ବର୍ଷର ମେଣ୍ଢା, ଗୋଟିଏ କପୋତ ଏବଂ ଗୋଟିଏ ୟୁବା କପୋତ ମାେ ନିକଟକୁ ଆଣ।
10 ସେ ସେସବୁକୁ ସେ ପରମେଶ୍ବରଙ୍କ ନିକଟକୁ ଆଣିଲେ ଏବଂ ଦୁଇ ଖଣ୍ଡ କରି କାଟିଲେ, ଏବଂ ସଗେୁଡ଼ିକ ଦୁଇ ଧାଡ଼ି ରେ ରଖି ପ୍ରେତ୍ୟକକ ଅଧାର ଉପରେ ଆଉ ଅଧା ୟୁକ୍ତି ଚ଼ିହ୍ନ ଭାବରେ ରଖିଲେ। କିନ୍ତୁ ସେ ପକ୍ଷୀମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦୁଇ ଖଣ୍ଡ କଲେ ନାହିଁ।
11 ଏହାପରେ, ଅନ୍ୟ ବନ୍ଯ ପକ୍ଷୀ ସହେି ମୃତ ପ୍ରାଣୀଙ୍କ ଉପରେ ଝାମ୍ପ ମାରିଲେ ଏବଂ ଅବ୍ରାମ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ ଘଉଡ଼ାଇ ଦେଲେ।
12 ଯେତବେେଳେ ସୂର୍ୟ୍ଯାସ୍ତ ହେଉଥିଲା ଅବ୍ରାମ ଘାରେ ନିଦ୍ରା ରେ ଶାଇେ ପଡ଼ିଲେ ଏବଂ ହଠାତ୍ ତାଙ୍କ ଉପରକୁ ଏକ ଭୟଙ୍କର ଅନ୍ଧକାର ଆସିଲା ଓ ସେ ଆତଙ୍କିତ ହାଇଗେଲେ।
13 ତା'ପରେ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଏ ବିଷଯ ରେ ନିଶ୍ଚିତ ହାଇପୋରିବ, ତୁମ୍ଭର ବଂଶଧର ବିଦେଶ ରେ ପ୍ରବାସୀ ହବେେ ଏବଂ କ୍ରୀତଦାସ ହବେେ ଏବଂ କ୍ଲେଶ ଭୋଗ କରିବେ 400 ବର୍ଷ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ।
14 କିନ୍ତୁ ଯେଉଁ ଜାତିମାନେ ସମାନଙ୍କେୁ କ୍ରୀତଦାସ କଲେ ସମାନଙ୍କେର ମୁଁ ବିଚାର କରିବି ଏବଂ ତାହାପରେ ପ୍ରଚୁର ଧନ ସହିତ ସମାନେେ ସ୍ବାଧୀନ ହବେେ।
15 ତଥାପି ତୁମ୍ଭ ନିମନ୍ତେ, ତୁମ୍ଭେ ଶାନ୍ତି ରେ ମରିବ ଏବଂ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପୂର୍ବପୁରୁଷଙ୍କ ସହିତ ମିଳିତ ହବେ ଏବଂ ତୁମ୍ଭେ ବହୁତ ବୃଦ୍ଧ ବଯସ ରେ କବର ପା୍ରପ୍ତ ହବେ।
16 ପୁଣି ଏହି ଦେଶକୁ ତୁମ୍ଭ ବଂଶର ଚ଼ତୁର୍ଥ ପୁରୁଷ ଫରେିବେ। କାରଣ ଯେଉଁ ଇ ମାରେୀଯମାନେ ଏଠା ରେ ବାସ କରନ୍ତି, ସମାନଙ୍କେର ପାପ ଏପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ଶଷେ ହାଇନୋହିଁ।
17 ସୂର୍ୟ୍ଯାସ୍ତ ପରେ, ଯେତବେେଳେ ଏହା ଘାରେ ଅନ୍ଧକାର ହେଲା, ଏକ ଧୂଆଁ ବାହାରୁଥିବା ପାତ୍ର ଏବଂ ଜ୍ଯଳନ୍ତ ମଶାଲ ହଠାତ୍ ଦଖାଗେଲା ଏବଂ ତାହା ଦୁଇ ଧାଡ଼ି ରେ ଥିବା ମୃତ ପଶୁଗୁଡ଼ିକର ଖଣ୍ଡସବୁ ମଧ୍ଯ ଦଇେ ଗଲା।
18 ସହେିଦିନ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କ ସହିତ ଏକ ଚୁକ୍ତି କଲେ। ସେ କହିଲେ, ମୁଁ ଏହି ଦେଶ ତୁମ୍ଭର ବଂଶଧରଙ୍କୁ ଦଲେି। ମିଶରୀଯ ନଦୀଠାରୁ ମହାନ ନଦୀ ଫରାତ୍ ପର୍ୟ୍ଯନ୍ତ ଏହି ଦେଶ ତୁମ୍ଭର ପରିବାରକୁ ମୁଁ ଦଲେି।
19 କନେୀଯମାନଙ୍କର, କନଜୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଓ କଦ୍ମୋନୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଭୂମି ଏହିସବୁ ।
20 ହୀତ୍ତୀଯମାନଙ୍କର, ପରିଜୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଓ ରଫାଯୀଯମାନଙ୍କର
21 ଇ ମାରେୀଯମାନଙ୍କର, କିଣାନୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ,ଓ ଗିର୍ଗାଶୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଓ ୟିବୁଶୀଯମାନଙ୍କର ଦେଶ ତୁମ୍ଭକୁ ଦଲେି।
1 After these things the word of the Lord came unto Abram in a vision, saying, Fear not, Abram: I am thy shield, and thy exceeding great reward.
2 And Abram said, Lord God, what wilt thou give me, seeing I go childless, and the steward of my house is this Eliezer of Damascus?
3 And Abram said, Behold, to me thou hast given no seed: and, lo, one born in my house is mine heir.
4 And, behold, the word of the Lord came unto him, saying, This shall not be thine heir; but he that shall come forth out of thine own bowels shall be thine heir.
5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
6 And he believed in the Lord; and he counted it to him for righteousness.
7 And he said unto him, I am the Lord that brought thee out of Ur of the Chaldees, to give thee this land to inherit it.
8 And he said, Lord God, whereby shall I know that I shall inherit it?
9 And he said unto him, Take me an heifer of three years old, and a she goat of three years old, and a ram of three years old, and a turtledove, and a young pigeon.
10 And he took unto him all these, and divided them in the midst, and laid each piece one against another: but the birds divided he not.
11 And when the fowls came down upon the carcases, Abram drove them away.
12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram; and, lo, an horror of great darkness fell upon him.
13 And he said unto Abram, Know of a surety that thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not theirs, and shall serve them; and they shall afflict them four hundred years;
14 And also that nation, whom they shall serve, will I judge: and afterward shall they come out with great substance.
15 And thou shalt go to thy fathers in peace; thou shalt be buried in a good old age.
16 But in the fourth generation they shall come hither again: for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet full.
17 And it came to pass, that, when the sun went down, and it was dark, behold a smoking furnace, and a burning lamp that passed between those pieces.
18 In the same day the Lord made a covenant with Abram, saying, Unto thy seed have I given this land, from the river of Egypt unto the great river, the river Euphrates:
19 The Kenites, and the Kenizzites, and the Kadmonites,
20 And the Hittites, and the Perizzites, and the Rephaims,
21 And the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Girgashites, and the Jebusites.

To the chief Musician upon Shushan-eduth, Michtam of David, to teach; when he strove with Aram-naharaim and with Aram-zobah, when Joab returned, and smote of Edom in the valley of salt twelve thousand.
1 ਨਿਰਦੇਸ਼ਕ ਲਈ: “ਕਰਾਰ ਦੇ ਚਮੇਲੀ ਦਾ ਫ਼ੁੱਲ” ਦੀ ਧੁਨੀ। ਦਾਊਦ ਦਾ ਮਿਕਤਾਮ ਸਿੱਖਿਆ ਲਈ। ਇਹ ਉਸ ਵੇਲੇ ਦੀ ਗੱਲ ਹੈ ਜਦੋਂ ਦਾਊਦ ਅਰਮ ਨਹਰੈਮ ਅਤੇ ਅਰਮ ਸੋਬਾਹ ਨਾਲ ਲੜਿਆ, ਅਤੇ ਜਦੋਂ ਯੋਆਬ ਵਾਪਸ ਪਰਤਿਆ ਅਤੇ ਉਸ ਨੇ 12,000 ਅਦੋਮ ਸਿਪਾਹੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਨਮਕ ਦੀ ਵਾਦੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਹਰਾਇਆ। ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ, ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਡੇ ਉੱਤੇ ਬਹੁਤ ਗੁੱਸੇ ਸੀ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਨਾਮੰਜ਼ੂਰ ਕੀਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਤਬਾਹ ਕਰ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਕਰਕੇ ਫ਼ੇਰ ਤੋਂ ਸਾਡਾ ਪੁਨਰ ਨਿਰਮਾਣ ਕਰੋ।
O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2 ਤੁਸੀਂ ਧਰਤੀ ਹਿਲਾ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਹੈ ਅਤੇ ਖੋਲ੍ਹਕੇ ਖਲਾਰ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਹੈ। ਸਾਡੀ ਦੁਨੀਆਂ ਬਿੱਖਰਦੀ ਜਾ ਰਹੀ ਹੈ। ਦਯਾ ਕਰੋ ਅਤੇ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਥਾਂ ਸਿਰ ਰੱਖੋ।
Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3 ਤੁਸੀਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਬੰਦਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਬਹੁਤ ਤਕਲੀਫ਼ਾਂ ਦਿੱਤੀਆਂ ਹਨ। ਅਸੀਂ ਡਿੱਗਦੇ, ਲੜਖੜ੍ਹਾਉਂਦੇ ਸ਼ਰਾਬੀ ਆਦਮੀਆਂ ਵਰਗੇ ਹਾਂ।
Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4 ਤੁਸਾਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਚੇਤਾਵਨੀ ਦਿੱਤੀ ਸੀ ਜਿਹੜੇ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਪੂਜਦੇ ਹਨ। ਹੁਣ ਉਹ ਵੈਰੀਆਂ ਤੋਂ ਬਚਕੇ ਨਿਕਲ ਸੱਕਦੇ ਹਨ।
Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5 ਆਪਣੀ ਮਹਾਨ ਸ਼ਕਤੀ ਵਰਤੋਂ ਅਤੇ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਬਚਾਉ। ਮੇਰੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਰਥਨਾ ਸੁਣੋ ਅਤੇ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਬਚਾ ਲਵੋ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਤੁਸੀ ਪਿਆਰ ਕਰਦੇ ਹੋਂ।
That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
6 ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਆਪਣੇ ਮੰਦਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਬੋਲਿਆ, ਮੈਂ ਇਸ ਨਾਲ ਬਹੁਤ ਖੁਸ਼ ਹਾਂ।” ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਨੇ ਆਖਿਆ, “ਮੈਂ ਇਹ ਜ਼ਮੀਨ ਆਪਣੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਸਾਂਝੀ ਕਰਾਂਗਾ, ਮੈਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸ਼ੇਚੇਮ ਦੇਵਾਂਗਾ। ਮੈਂ ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਸੁੱਕੋਥ ਦੀ ਵਾਦੀ ਦੇਵਾਂਗਾ।
God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7 ਗਿਲਆਦ ਤੇ ਮਾਨਾਸੇਹ ਮੇਰੇ ਹੋਣਗੇ। ਇਫ਼ਰਾਈਮ ਮੇਰੇ ਸਿਰ ਦੀ ਢਾਲ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ। ਯਹੂਦਾਹ ਮੇਰਾ ਸ਼ਾਹੀ ਡੰਡਾ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ।
Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8 ਮੋਆਬ ਮੇਰੇ ਚਰਨ ਧੋਣ ਲਈ ਮੇਰਾ ਭਾਂਡਾ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ। ਇਡੋਮ ਮੇਰਾ ਦਾਸ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ ਜਿਹੜਾ ਮੇਰੀਆਂ ਖੜ੍ਹਾਵਾਂ ਚੁੱਕੇਗਾ। ਮੈਂ ਫ਼ਿਲਿਸਤੀਨੀ ਦੇ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ ਦਿਆਂਗਾ ਅਤੇ ਮੈਂ ਜਿੱਤ ਬਾਰੇ ਰੌਲਾ ਪਾਵਾਂਗਾ।”
Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
9 ਪਰ ਹੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ, ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਤਿਆਗ ਦਿੱਤਾ। ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਡੀ ਫ਼ੌਜ ਨਾਲ ਨਹੀਂ ਗਏ। ਇਸ ਲਈ ਮਜ਼ਬੂਤ ਸੁਰੱਖਿਅਤ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਵੱਲ ਨੂੰ ਮੇਰੀ ਅਗਵਾਈ ਕੌਣ ਕਰੇਗਾ। ਇਡੋਮ ਦੇ ਖਿਲਾਫ਼ ਲੜਨ ਵਿੱਚ ਮੇਰੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕੌਣ ਕਰੇਗਾ।
Who will bring me into the strong city? who will lead me into Edom?
10
Wilt not thou, O God, which hadst cast us off? and thou, O God, which didst not go out with our armies?
11 ਹੇ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ, ਵੈਰੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾਉਣ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਾਡੀ ਸਹਾਇਤਾ ਕਰੋ। ਲੋਕ ਮਦਦ ਨਹੀਂ ਕਰ ਸੱਕਦੇ।
Give us help from trouble: for vain is the help of man.
12 ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਹੀ ਸਾਨੂੰ ਮਜ਼ਬੂਤ ਬਣਾ ਸੱਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਪਰਮੇਸ਼ੁਰ ਹੀ ਸਾਡੇ ਵੈਰੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਹਰਾ ਸੱਕਦਾ ਹੈ।
Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall tread down our enemies.
