創世記 19
1 黃昏時，那兩位使者來到了索多瑪，羅特正坐在索多瑪城門口，他一看見他們，就起身前去迎接，俯伏在地，
And they came [the] two the angels Sodom towards in the evening and Lot [was] sitting in [the] gate of Sodom and he saw [them] Lot and he arose to meet them and he bowed down face [the] ground towards.
2 說：「請二位先生下到你們僕人家中住一夜，洗洗你們的腳；明天早起，再趕你們的路。」他們答說：「不，我們願在街上過宿。」
And he said here! please O lords my turn aside please to [the] house of servant your and stay [the] night and wash feet your and you will rise early (and you will go *LAH(b)*) to way your and they said In-deed in the open place we will stay [the] night.
3 但因羅特極力邀請，他們才轉身跟著進了他的家。羅特為他們備辦了宴席，烤了無酵餅；他們就吃了。
And he urged them exceedingly and they turned aside to him and they went into house his and he prepared for them a feast and unleavened bread he baked and they ate.
4 他們尚未就寢，閤城的人即索多瑪男人，不論年輕年老的，沒有例外，全都來圍住他的家，
Before they lay down and [the] men of the city [the] men of Sodom they surrounded the house from young man and unto old [man] all the people from [the] end.
5 向羅特喊說：「今晚來到你這裏的那兩個男人在那裏﹖給我們領出來，叫我們好認識他們。」
And they called to Lot and they said to him where? [are] the men who they came to you this night bring them to us so let us know them.
6 羅特就出來，隨手關上門，到門口見他們，
And he went out to them Lot the entrance towards and the door he closed behind him.
7 說：「我的弟兄們! 請你們切不可作惡。
And he said may not please O brothers my you do evil.
8 看，我有兩個女兒，尚未認識過男人，容我領出她們來，任憑你們對待她們；只是這兩個男人，既然來到舍下，請你們不要對他們行事。」
Here! please [belong] to me two daughters who not they have known a man let me bring out please them to you and do to them according to the good in view your only to the men these may not you do anything for since they have come in [the] shadow of roof my.
9 他們反說：「滾開! 」繼而說：「來這裏的這個外方人，居然做起判官來! 現在我們待你比他們還要厲害。」他們遂用力向羅特衝去，一齊向前要打破那門。
And they said - approach beyond and they said the one he came to sojourn and he has judged continuously now we will do harm to you more than them and they urged the man Lot exceedingly and they approached to break down the door.
10 那兩個人卻伸出手來，將羅特拉進屋內，關上了門；
And they stretched out the men hand their and they brought Lot to them the house towards and the door they closed.
11 又使那些在屋門口的男人，無論大小都迷了眼，找不著門口。
And the men who [were] [the] entrance of the house they struck with sudden blindness from small and unto great and they became weary to find the entrance.
12 那兩個人對羅特說：「你這裏還有什麼人﹖帶你的女婿、兒女，以及城中你所有的人，離開這地方，
And they said the men to Lot yet who? [belongs] to you here a son-in-law and sons your and daughters your and all who [belong] to you in the city bring out from the place.
13 因為我們要毀滅這地方；由於在上主面前控告他們的聲音實在大，所以上主派遣我們來毀滅這地方。」
For [are] about to destroy we the place this for it is great outcry their with [the] face of Yahweh and he has sent us Yahweh to destroy it.
14 羅特遂出去，告訴要娶他女兒的兩個女婿說：「起來，離開這地方，因為上主要毀滅這城! 」但他的兩個女婿卻以為他在開玩笑。
And he went out Lot and he spoke - to sons-in-law his - [who were] about to take daughters his and he said arise go out from the place this for [is] about to destroy Yahweh the city and he was like [one who] jests in [the] eyes of sons-in-law his.
15 天一亮，兩位使者就催促羅特說：「起來，快領你的妻子和你這裏的兩個女兒逃走，免得你因這城的罪惡同遭滅亡。」
And when the dawn it came up and they urged the angels Lot saying arise take wife your and [the] two daughters your who are found lest you should be swept away in [the] punishment of the city.
16 羅特仍遲延不走；但因為上主憐恤他，那兩個人就拉著他的手，他妻子的和他兩個女兒的手領出城外。
And he delayed - and they took hold the men on hand his and on [the] hand of wife his and on [the] hand of [the] two daughters his in [the] mercy of Yahweh towards him and they brought out him and they placed him from [the] outside of the city.
17 二人領他們到城外，其中一個說：「快快逃命，不要往後看，也不要在平原任何地方站住；該逃往山中，免得同遭滅亡。」
And it was when brought out they them the outside towards and he said escape on life your may not you look behind you and may not you stop in all the valley the hill country towards escape lest you should be swept away.
18 羅特對他們說：「啊! 不，我主!
And he said Lot to them may not [it be] please O Lord.
19 你僕人既蒙你垂愛，又蒙你大顯仁慈，得以保全我的性命；但是現在我不能逃往山中，怕遇見災禍死去。
Here! please he has found servant your favor in view your and you have made great loyalty your which you have done with me by preserving alive life my and I not I am able to escape the hill country towards lest it should cling to me the calamity and I will die.
20 看這座城很近，容我逃往那裏，那只是一座小城；請容我逃往那裏；那不只是一座小城嗎﹖在那裏我可保全性命。」
Here! please the city this [is] near to flee there towards and it [is] a small place let me escape please there towards ¿ not a small place [is] it so it may live life my.
21 其中一個對他說：「好罷! 連在這事上我也顧全你的臉面，我必不消滅你提及的這座城。
And he said to him here! I lift up face your also to the matter this to not to overthrow I the city which you have spoken.
22 你趕快逃往那裏，因為你不到那裏，我不能行事。」為此那城稱為左哈爾。
Hurry escape there towards for not I will be able to do anything until going you there towards there-fore someone called [the] name of the city Zoar.
23 羅特到了左哈爾時，太陽已升出地面；
The sun it came out over the earth and Lot he went Zoar towards.
24 上主遂使硫磺和火，從天上上主那裏，降於索多瑪和哈摩辣，
And Yahweh he caused to rain on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulfur and fire from with Yahweh from the heavens.
25 毀滅了這幾座城市和整個平原，以及城中所有的居民和地上的草木。
And he overthrew the cities these and all the valley and all [the] inhabitants of the cities and [the] growth of the ground.
26 羅特的妻子因回頭觀看，立即變為鹽柱。
And she looked wife his from behind him and she was a pillar of salt.
27 亞巴郎清晨起來，到了以前他立在上主面前的地方，
And he rose early Abraham in the morning to the place where he had stood there with [the] face of Yahweh.
28 向索多瑪和哈摩辣，以及整個平原一帶眺望，看見那地煙火上騰，也如燒窯一般。
And he looked down on [the] face of Sodom and Gomorrah and on all [the] face of [the] land of the valley and he saw and there! it went up [the] smoke of the land like [the] smoke of furnace.
29 當天主毀滅平原諸城，消滅羅特所住的城市時，想起了亞巴郎，由滅亡中救了羅特。
And it was when destroyed God [the] cities of the valley and he remembered God Abraham and he sent out Lot from [the] middle of the overthrow when overthrew the cities which he had dwelt in them Lot.
30 羅特因為怕住在左哈爾，便與他的兩個女兒離開左哈爾，上了山住在那裏；他和兩個女兒同住在一個山洞裏。
And he went up Lot from Zoar and he dwelt in the hill country and [the] two daughters his [were] with him for he was afraid to dwell in Zoar and he dwelt in the cave he and [the] two daughters his.
31 長女對幼女說：「我們的父親已經老了，地上又沒有男人依照世界上的禮俗來與我們親近。
And said the firstborn to the young father our he is old and [is] a man there not in the land to go on us according to [the] way of all the earth.
32 來讓我們用酒將父親灌醉，與他同睡：這樣我們可由父親傳生後代﹖」
Come! let us make drink father our wine and let us lie with him so we may preserve alive from father of our spring.
33 那天夜裏，她們就用酒將父親灌醉；長女遂進去與父親同睡；女兒幾時臥下，幾時起來，他都不知道。
And they made drink father their wine in the night that and she came the firstborn and she lay with father her and not he knew when lay down she and when arose she.
34 第二天，長女對幼女說：「看，昨夜我與父親同睡了，今夜我們再用酒灌醉他，你好進去與他同睡，由我們的父親傳生後代。」
And it was from [the] next day and she said the firstborn to the young here! I lay with last night father my let us make drink him wine also this night and go lie with him so we may preserve alive from father of our spring.
35 那天夜裏，她們又用酒將父親灌醉，幼女遂進去與他同睡；女兒幾時臥下，幾時起來，他都不知道。
And they made drink also in the night that father their wine and she arose the young [one] and she lay with him and not he knew when lay down she and when arose she.
36 這樣，羅特的兩個女兒都由父親懷了孕。
And they conceived [the] two [the] daughters of Lot from father their.
37 長女生了一個兒子，給他起名叫摩阿布，是現今摩阿人的始祖。
And she bore the firstborn a son and she called name his Moab he [is] [the] ancestor of Moab until this day.
38 幼女也生了一個兒子，給他起名叫本阿米，是現今阿孟子民的始祖。
And the young also she she bore a son and she called name his Ben-Ammi he [is] [the] ancestor of [the] people of Ammon until this day.
