Mui 18
1 A: ibalaha: me da Ma: melei soge amo sema ifa bagade lelebe sogebi esalu. Eso gia: beba: le, e da ea abula diasu logo holei gadenene filasa: i esalu. Amalalu, Hina Gode da ema doaga: i.
And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
2 A: ibalaha: me da ba: legadole, dunu udiana gadenene lelebe ba: i. Ba: loba, e da hedolowane ili yosia: musa: asi, amola ilima begudui.
And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw [them], he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
3 E amane sia: i, “Hina! Dilia da na hahawane ba: i galea, mae baligili masa.
And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
4 Na da hano gaguli misa: ne sia: mu. Amoga dilia emo dodofelalu, amo ifa ea ougiga helefima.
Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
5 Na da dilia hawa: hamosu dunu defele esala. Dilia gasa bu lama: ne, na da dilima ha: i manu imunu da defeala: ?” Ilia da bu adole i, “Defea! Dia sia: i defele hamoma!”
And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
6 Amaiba: le, A:ibalaha: me da hedolowane ea abula diasua golili sa: i. E da Selama amane sia: i, “Hedolo! Falaua 22 lida amo lale, bibiagole amola gobele agi ga: gi hamoma.”
And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead [it], and make cakes upon the hearth.
7 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da ea lai gebo gilisisu amoga hehenane, bulamagau mano gasono ida: iwane lale, ea hawa: hamosu dunuma i. Amo da hedolowane hahamoi.
And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave [it] unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
8 Amalalu, e da dodo maga: me haei, dodo maga: me amola bulamagau mano gobei, amo gaguli misini, sofe misi dunu ili amo moma: ne ligisi. Ilia da ha: i nanoba, e da ifa ea ougiga ilima gadenene lelu.
And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set [it] before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
9 Ilia da ema amane adole ba: i, “Dia uda Sela da habila: ?” A: ibalaha: me da bu adole i, “E da abula diasu ganodini esala.”
And they said unto him, Where [is] Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
10 Amalalu, Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Na da waha oubi sesegeyale uduli, dafawane dima misunu. Dia uda Sela da dunu mano lalelegemu.” Sela da abula diasu holei amo Hina Gode Ea baligiga galu amoga sia: lalabolalu.
And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard [it] in the tent door, which [was] behind him.
11 A: ibalaha: me amola Sela da da: i hamoi dagoiba: le, Sela da mano lamu ode defei amo baligi dagoi ba: i.
Now Abraham and Sarah [were] old [and] well stricken in age; [and] it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
12 Amaiba: le, Sela da ea dogo ganodini ousu. Ea asigi dawa: su ganodini, e amane dawa: i, “Na da: i da wadela: lesi dagoi amola nagoa da da: i hamoi. Na da habodane amo hahawane hou ba: ma: bela: ?”
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
13 Amalalu, Hina Gode da A: ibalaha: mema amane sia: i, “Sela da abuliba: le oune amane sia: i, ‘Na da da: i hamoiba: le, habodane mano lalelegema: bela: ?’
And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
14 Gasa bagade liligi hamomu da Godema hamedebela: ? Na da oubi sesegeyale uduli, eso ilegei defele na dima olelei, bu misunu. Amola Sela da dunu mano lalelegemu.”
Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
15 Sela da beda: iba: le, ogogoi. E amane sia: i, “Na da hame oui.” Be Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Be di da oui dagoi.”
Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
16 Sofe misi dunu da masusa: wa: legadoloba, ilia da ba: le gaidi Sodame ba: i. Ilia da logoga ahoanoba, A:ibalaha: me da ili sigi asi.
And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
17 Amalalu, Hina Gode da Hima amane sia: i, “Na da waha hou hamomu amo A: ibalaha: mema wamolegema: bela: ?
And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
18 A: ibalaha: me ea fi da fi bagade amola gasa bagade hamomu. Ea houba: le, osobo bagade fifi asi gala huluane da hahawane dogolegele ilegesu ba: mu.
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19 Bai Na da e ilegei dagoi. E da ea mano noga: le olelema: ne amola ea fi dunu da hou moloidafa amola dafawanedafa amo olelema: ne, Na da e ilegei. Amai galea, Na da Na hahawane ilegele sia: i liligi huluane ema imunu.”
For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
20 Amalalu, Hina Gode da amane sia: i, “Na da Sodame amola Goumola ela fi wadela: idafa hou amo nabi.
And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
21 Amaiba: le, Na da ilia hou ba: ma: ne amo da nabi liligi defele ganabela: ? Amo Na da ba: la masunu. Hame galea Na da dawa: mu.”
I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
22 Sofe misi dunu da sinidigili, Sodame moilaiga doaga: musa: asi. Be A: ibalaha: me da mae fisili Hina Gode Ea midadi lelu.
And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
23 Amalalu, e da Hina Godema misini, amane sia: i, “Di da dafawane gilisili ida: iwane dunu amola wadela: i hamosu dunu ili fane legema: bela: ?
And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
24 Amabela: ? Dunu ida: iwane 50 agoane amo moilai bai bagade ganodini esalabala? Amai galea, Di da amo dunu ilia hou dawa: beba: le, amo moilai bai bagade fadegale fasima: bela: ?
Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that [are] therein?
25 Na da agoane dawa: Di da dunu ida: iwane amola wadela: i hamosu dunu gilisili hou afadafa fawane hamomu da hamedei gala. Amo hou da Dima hame gala. Osobo bagade fifi asi gala ilima Fofada: su Dunudafa, E da hou moloidafa fawane hamoma: bela: ? Na agoane dawa: E da moloidafa hou fawane hamomu.”
That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
26 Hina Gode da bu amane sia: i, “Na da Sodame moilai bai bagade ganodini dunu ida: iwane gala 50 agoane ba: sea, Na da ilia hou dawa: beba: le, Sodame huluane hame gugunufinisimu.”
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
27 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da bu sia: i, “Na da osobo amola nasubu, amo fawane. Be na da mae beda: iwane, Hina Godema sia: i dagoiba: le, na da bu sia: mu.
And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which [am but] dust and ashes:
28 Di da Sodame moilai bai bagade ganodini, dunu ida: iwane 45 fawane ba: sea, Di da 50 defei amo ganodini wadela: i hamosu dunu biyale fawane ba: sea, moilai wadela: ma: bela: ?” E bu adole i, “Na da dunu ida: iwane 45 fawane ba: sea, moilai hame gugunufinisimu.”
Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for [lack of] five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy [it].
29 A: ibalaha: me da eno amane sia: i, “Be 40 fawane ba: sea, adi hamoma: bela: ?” E amane sia: i, “Amo 40 ilia hou dawa: beba: le, Na da moilai bai bagade hame wadela: mu.”
And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do [it] for forty’s sake.
30 Amalalu, A:ibalaha: me da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode! Nama mae ougima, be na da Dima bu sia: mu. Dunu 30 fawane ida: iwane esalea adi hamoma: bela: ?” E bu adole i, “Na da 30 ba: sea, moilai hame gugunufinisimu.”
And he said [unto him], Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do [it], if I find thirty there.
31 A: ibalaha: me da amane sia: i, “Defea! Na da wali mae beda: iwane Hina Gode Ema sia: i dagoi. Be 20 fawane ba: sea?” E bu adole i, “Moloi dunu 20 ba: sea, Na da hame wadela: mu.”
And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for twenty’s sake.
32 A: ibalaha: me da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode! Nama mae ougima, be na da afadafa fawane eno Dima sia: mu. Dunu 10 ida: iwane fawane ba: sea, adi hamoma: bela: ?” Hina Gode da bu adole i, “Dunu 10 ilia hou ida: iwane ba: sea, Na da amo moilai hame gugunufinisimu.”
And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy [it] for ten’s sake.
33 Hina Gode amola A: ibalaha: me, ela gilisili sia: dasu da dagoloba, Hina Gode da fisili asi amola A: ibalaha: me da hi diasuga buhagi.
And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
