Genesis 19
1 And the two agents came to Sodom at evening, and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. And Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. And he bowed himself with his face to the earth,
Bamalayika ababiri ne batuuka mu Sodomu akawungeezi; Lutti yali atudde mu mulyango gwa Sodomu. Lutti bwe yabalaba n’agolokoka okubasisinkana, n’avuunama,
2 and he said, Behold now, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, No, but we will abide in the street all night.
n’agamba nti, “Bakama bange mukyame mu nnyumba y’omuddu wammwe munaabe ku bigere, mbegayiridde n’okusula musule. Munaazuukuka mangu ku makya ne mukwata ekkubo lyammwe.” Ne bagamba nti, “Nedda tunaasula mu luguudo.”
3 And he urged them greatly. And they turned in to him, and entered into his house. And he made a feast for them, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
Naye n’abawaliriza nnyo; awo ne bakyama ne bajja gy’ali ne bayingira mu nnyumba ye, n’abategekera ekijjulo n’emigaati egitali mizimbulukuse ne balya.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, encompassed the house around, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.
Naye nga tebannaba kugenda kwebaka, abasajja ab’omu kibuga, abasajja ba Sodomu, abakulu n’abato, abantu bonna ne beetooloola ennyumba;
5 And they called to Lot, and said to him, Where are the men who came in to thee this night? Bring them out to us, that we may know them.
ne bayita Lutti nga bagamba nti, “Abasajja abazze gy’oli ekiro kino bali ludda wa? Batufulumize twebake nabo.”
6 And Lot went out to them to the door, and shut the door after him.
Lutti n’afuluma gye bali, n’aggalawo oluggi,
7 And he said, I pray you, my brothers, do not so wickedly.
n’abagamba nti, “Baganda bange mbasaba temukola kibi kifaanana bwe kityo.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters who have not known a man. Let me, I pray you, bring them out to you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes. Only do nothing to these men, inasmuch as they have come under the shadow of my roof.
Laba, nnina bawala bange embeerera babiri, ka mbabafulumize, mubakole kye mwagala; naye temubaako kye mukola basajja bano, bagenyi bange era nze mbalabirira.”
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will be a judge. Now we will deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed greatly upon the man, even Lot, and drew near to break the door.
Naye ne bamugamba nti, “Tuviire! Omusajja omugwira ono, ate kati y’atulagira eky’okukola! Nedda, tujja kukukolako n’okusinga abagenyi bo.” Awo ne banyigiriza nnyo Lutti, era kaabula kata bamenye n’oluggi.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
Naye abasajja ababiri abaali mu nnyumba ne bagolola emikono gyabwe ne bakwata Lutti ne bamuyingiza mu nnyumba ne baggalawo oluggi.
11 And they smote the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
Ne baziba amaaso g’abasajja abaali ebweru ku luggi lw’ennyumba, abato n’abakulu, ne bakoowa nga bawammanta oluggi.
12 And the men said to Lot, Have thou here any besides? Son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whomever thou have in the city, bring them out of the place.
Awo abasajja bali ababiri ne babuuza Lutti nti, “Olina abantu bo abalala wano, batabani bo, oba bakoddomi bo, oba bawala bo, oba omuntu omulala yenna mu kibuga? Bafulumye mu kifo kino;
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them has been great before Jehovah. And Jehovah has sent us to destroy it.
kubanga tuli kumpi okukizikiriza. Kubanga okukaaba olw’abantu baamu eri Mukama kuyitiridde, era atutumye okukizikiriza.”
14 And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place, for Jehovah will destroy the city. But he seemed to his sons-in-law as a man jesting.
Awo Lutti n’afuluma n’ategeeza bakoddomi be abaali ab’okuwasa bawala be ng’agamba nti, “Musituke, muve mu kifo kino, kubanga Mukama ali kumpi kukizikiriza.” Naye yafaanana ng’abalaata eri bakoddomi be. Lutti n’ab’ennyumba ye ne badduka.
15 And when the morning arose, then the agents hurried Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters who are here, lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
Naye obudde bwe bwali bunaatera okukya, bamalayika ne balagira Lutti nga bagamba nti, “Golokoka, otwale mukazi wo ne bawala bo ababiri abali wano muleme okuzikirira ng’ekibuga kibonerezebwa.”
16 But he lingered. And the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters, Jehovah being merciful to him, and they brought him forth, and set him outside the city.
Naye bwe yali akyekunya, abasajja ne bamukwata omukono, n’emikono gya mukazi we, n’emikono gy’abawala be bombi, Mukama ng’abakwatirwa ekisa, ne babafulumya ne babateeka ebweru w’ekibuga.
17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, do not look behind thee, neither stay thou in all the Plain. Escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
Bwe baabafulumya ne babagamba nti, “Mudduke muwonye obulamu bwammwe, temutunula mabega wadde okuyimirira mu kiwonvu; muddukire ku nsozi, muleme okuzikirizibwa.”
18 And Lot said to them, Oh, not so, my lord.
Awo Lutti n’abagamba nti, “Nedda bakama bange;
19 Behold now, thy servant has found favor in thy sight, and thou have magnified thy loving kindness, which thou have shown to me in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die.
Laba, omuddu wammwe alabye ekisa mu maaso gammwe, era mundaze ekisa kingi nga muwonya obulamu bwange; naye siyinza kuddukira ku nsozi akabi tekalwa kunzingiza ne nfa.
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (is it not a little one?), and my soul shall live.
Laba, ekibuga kiri ekitono ekiri okumpi, kirungi okuddukira omwo. Leka nzirukire eyo. Era n’obulamu bwange bujja kuwona!”
21 And he said to him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou have spoken.
N’amuddamu nti, “Laba, era nnyongedde okukukwatirwa ekisa, sijja kumalawo kibuga ky’oyogeddeko.
22 Hasten thee, escape there, for I cannot do anything till thou have come there. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
Yanguwa tolwa, ddukira eyo; kubanga siriiko kye nnaakola nga tonnatuuka eyo.” Erinnya ly’ekibuga kyeryava liba Zowaali.
23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot came to Zoar.
Lutti we yatuukira mu Zowaali enjuba yali evuddeyo, Sodomu ne Ggomola ne bizikirizibwa.
24 Then Jehovah rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven.
Awo Mukama n’atonnyesa ku Sodomu ne Ggomola omuliro n’obuganga okuva mu ggulu;
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the Plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
n’azikiriza ebibuga ebyo, n’ekiwonvu kyonna n’abantu bonna abaali mu bibuga, ne buli kintu ekyalimu.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
Naye mukazi wa Lutti bwe yatunula emabega, n’afuuka empagi ey’omunnyo.
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before Jehovah.
Awo ku makya ennyo Ibulayimu n’agenda mu kifo mwe yayimiririra mu maaso ga Mukama;
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the Plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.
n’atunula wansi okwolekera Sodomu ne Ggomola n’okwolekera ekitundu kyonna eky’olusenyi, n’alaba, era laba, ekitundu kyonna nga kijjudde omukka.
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the Plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.
Bwe kityo bwe kyali Katonda bwe yazikiriza ebibuga eby’omu kiwonvu. Katonda n’ajjukira Ibulayimu n’afulumya Lutti ebweru n’amuggya wakati mu kuzikirizibwa, bwe yazikiriza ebibuga Lutti mwe yabeeranga.
30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he feared to dwell in Zoar. And he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
Awo Lutti n’ava mu Zowaali, n’abeera mu nsozi wamu ne bawala be, kubanga yatya okubeera mu Zowaali. Ye ne bawala be ne babeera mu mpuku.
31 And the firstborn said to the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man on the earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth.
Olunaku lumu omuwala omukulu n’agamba muto we nti, “Kitaffe akaddiye era tewali na musajja ku nsi ajja kutwagala ng’empisa y’ensi bw’eri.
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed by our father.
Jjangu tunywese kitaffe omwenge, tulyoke twebake naye, tusobole okufuna ezzadde nga liva mu kitaffe.”
33 And they made their father drink wine that night. And the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. And he did not know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
Ne batamiiza kitaabwe ekiro ekyo, omukulu n’agenda ne yeebaka ne kitaawe, Lutti n’atamanya bwe yeebaka yadde bwe yagolokoka.
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said to the younger, Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine this night also, and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed by our father.
Ku lunaku olwaddirira, omuwala omukulu n’agamba omuto nti, “Laba, ekiro neebase ne kitange; Leka tumunywese omwenge ekiro kino, oyingire gy’ali weebake naye, tulyoke tusobole okukuuma ezzadde mu kitaffe.”
35 And they made their father drink wine that night also. And the younger arose, and lay with him. And he did not know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
Awo ne batamiiza kitaabwe ekiro ekyo, omuwala omuto n’asituka ne yeebaka naye, Lutti n’atamanya bwe yeebase ne bw’agolokose.
36 Thus both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
Bwe batyo bawala ba Lutti bombi buli omu n’aba olubuto nga lwa kitaabwe.
37 And the firstborn bore a son, and called his name Moab. The same is the father of the Moabites to this day.
Omuwala omukulu n’azaala omwana wabulenzi n’amutuuma Mowaabu, ye jjajja w’Abamowaabu abaliwo kaakano.
38 And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi. The same is the father of the sons of Ammon to this day.
Omuto naye n’azaala omwana mulenzi n’amutuuma Benami, ye yavaamu Abamoni abaliwo ne kaakano.
