Genesis 18
1 Then the LORD appeared to Abraham by the Oaks of Mamre in the heat of the day, while he was sitting at the entrance of his tent.
Na LEUM GOD El sikyang nu sel Abraham ke insak oal sunal Mamre. Ke Abraham el muta ke mutunoa in lohm nuknuk sel, ke pacl na fol ke len uh,
2 And Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he ran from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.
el ngetak ac liye mwet tolu tu insac. Pacl se na el liyalosyak, el yula in osun nu selos. El faksufi
3 “My lord,” said Abraham, “if I have found favor in your sight, please do not pass your servant by.
ac fahk, “Mwet kacto, nunak munas nimet fahsr aliki lohm sik uh ac tia tui. Nga inge in kulansupwekowos.
4 Let a little water be brought, that you may wash your feet and rest yourselves under the tree.
Lela ngan use kutu kof in ohlla niowos. Kowos ku in monglawin ye lulin sak soko inge.
5 And I will bring a bit of bread so that you may refresh yourselves. This is why you have passed your servant’s way. After that, you may continue on your way.” “Yes,” they replied, “you may do as you have said.”
Nga fah use pac kutu mwe mongo in akkeye kowos, na kowos fah sifilpa fahsr. Kowos arulana akmwetyeyu ke kowos tuku nu lohm sik uh. Ke ma inge, fuhlema nga in kulansup nu suwos.” Ac eltal fahk nu sel, “Tarilana. Kut ac wi ma kom fahk an.”
6 So Abraham hurried into the tent and said to Sarah, “Quick! Prepare three seahs of fine flour, knead it, and bake some bread.”
Abraham el sulaklak na som nu in lohm nuknuk uh ac fahk nu sel Sarah, “Aksaye, eis sie pak in flao wowo an, kasla, ac sang orauk kutu cake ah.”
7 Meanwhile, Abraham ran to the herd, selected a tender and choice calf, and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it.
Na el sifilpa yula nu yen un kosro uh muta we, ac sulela cow fusr na fisrasr ikwa ac factfat soko, ac sang nu sin mwet kulansap se, su sulaklak na akoela.
8 Then Abraham brought curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and he set them before the men and stood by them under the tree as they ate.
Ac el us kutu butter, milk, ac ikwen kosro, ac filiya mwe mongo inge ye mutun mwet tolu ah. Na el tupan enenu lalos ke elos mongo ye sak soko ah.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked. “There, in the tent,” he replied.
Na elos siyuk sel, “El aya Sarah, mutan kiom?” Ac el fahk, “El a na lohm ah.”
10 Then the LORD said, “I will surely return to you at this time next year, and your wife Sarah will have a son!” Now Sarah was behind him, listening at the entrance to the tent.
Na sie selos fahk, “Malem eu tukun misenge nga ac foloko, na ac fah oasr wen se natul Sarah, mutan kiom.” Sarah el tu tokol ke mutunoa in lohm nuknuk uh, ac porongo.
11 And Abraham and Sarah were already old and well along in years; Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.
Abraham ac Sarah arulana matuoh, ac tui musen mutan lal Sarah.
12 So she laughed to herself, saying, “After I am worn out and my master is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
Ouinge Sarah el israsrla ac nunku in el sifacna, “Inge ke nga matuoh ac wanginla kuiyuk, ya nga ac srakna pwar in oan yurin mukul tumuk? Saya, el arulana matuoh pac.”
13 And the LORD asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Can I really bear a child when I am old?’
Na LEUM GOD El siyuk sel Abraham, “Efu Sarah el ku israsr ac fahk, ‘Ya pwaye ku in oasr tulik se nutik ke nga arulana matuoh?’
14 Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you—in about a year—and Sarah will have a son.”
Ya oasr ma LEUM GOD El kofla nu kac? Oana ke nga fahk tari, tukun malem eu nga fah foloko, na ac fah oasr wen se natul Sarah.”
15 But Sarah was afraid, so she denied it and said, “I did not laugh.” “No,” replied the LORD, “but you did laugh.”
Ke sripen Sarah el sangeng, el lafwekin ac fahk, “Nga tiana israsr.” El topuk, “Pwaye, kom israsr.”
16 When the men got up to leave, they looked out over Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them off.
Na mwet ah tuyak in som, ac Abraham el welulos in wilkas nu selos. Na elos som nu ke acn se ma elos ac ku in ngeti ac liye acn Sodom.
17 And the LORD said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?
Ac LEUM GOD El fahk insial sifacna, “Nga fah tia okanla nu sel Abraham ma nga akola in oru.
18 Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and through him all the nations of the earth will be blessed.
Fwilin tulik natul ac fah orala sie mutunfacl lulap ac ku, ac nga fah akinsewowoye mutunfacl nukewa kacl.
19 For I have chosen him, so that he will command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, in order that the LORD may bring upon Abraham what He has promised.”
Nga sulella ke sripen nga enenu elan ku in sapsap nu sin wen natul ac fwil nukewa tokol tuh elos in akosyu ac in oru ma pwaye ac suwohs. Elos fin akosyu, nga fah oru ma nukewa ma nga wulela tari kac nu sel.”
20 Then the LORD said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great. Because their sin is so grievous,
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Abraham, “Oasr tukak na koluk lain acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, ac ma koluk lalos arulana yohk.
21 I will go down to see if their actions fully justify the outcry that has reached Me. If not, I will find out.”
Nga enenu in oatula ac konauk lah ma tukakinyuk elos kac inge pwaye ku sutuu.”
22 And the two men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD.
Na mwet luo ah tuyak som tulanya acn Sodom, tusruktu LEUM GOD El srakna oasr yorol Abraham.
23 Abraham stepped forward and said, “Will You really sweep away the righteous with the wicked?
Abraham el kalukyang nu yurin LEUM GOD ac siyuk, “Ya pwayena kom ac kunausla mwet wangin mwata wi na mwet koluk uh?
24 What if there are fifty righteous ones in the city? Will You really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous ones who are there?
Fin oasr mwet wangin mwata lumngaul in siti uh, ya kom ac kunausla siti nufon sac? Ya kom ac tia lela in oanna ke sripen mwet lumngaul uh?
25 Far be it from You to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Will not the Judge of all the earth do what is right?”
Kalem lah kom tia ku in uniya mwet wangin mwata wi mwet koluk. Ac tia ku in angan! Kom koflana oru ma sacn. Kom fin oru angan, na mwet suwohs uh ac fah kalyeiyuk oapana mwet koluk uh. Tiana ku in angan. El su nununku faclu nufon enenu na in orekma in suwohs.”
26 So the LORD replied, “If I find fifty righteous ones within the city of Sodom, on their account I will spare the whole place.”
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fin konauk mwet suwoswos lumngaul in Sodom, nga fah tia kunausla siti nufon sac ke sripalos.”
27 Then Abraham answered, “Now that I have ventured to speak to the Lord—though I am but dust and ashes—
Abraham el sifilpa fahk, “LEUM GOD, nunak munas, tuleyula ke kuinsrim luk in kaskas nu sum. Mwet na lusrongten se pa nga uh, ac nga kupansuwol in fahk kutena ma.
28 suppose the fifty righteous ones lack five. Will You destroy the whole city for the lack of five?” He replied, “If I find forty-five there, I will not destroy it.”
Fin mwet suwoswos na angngaul limekosr, ac tia lumngaul, ya kom ac srakna kunausla siti nufon sac mweyen mwet limekosr pueni?” LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah tia kunausla siti sac nga fin konauk mwet suwoswos angngaul limekosr.
29 Once again Abraham spoke to the LORD, “Suppose forty are found there?” He answered, “On account of the forty, I will not do it.”
Ac Abraham el sifilpa fahk, “Ac fin mwet angngaul na?” LEUM GOD El topuk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla fin oasr mwet angngaul.”
30 Then Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak further. Suppose thirty are found there?” He replied, “If I find thirty there, I will not do it.”
Abraham el fahk, “LEUM GOD, nunak munas nikmet kasrkusrak, a nga srakna ke sifilpa kaskas. Fin mwet na tolngoul? El fahk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla nga fin konauk mwet tolngoul.”
31 And Abraham said, “Now that I have ventured to speak to the Lord, suppose twenty are found there?” He answered, “On account of the twenty, I will not destroy it.”
Abraham el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas ke nga siayuk in kusen siyuk nu sum uh. Ac fin pa mwet na longoul koneyukyak we?” El fahk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla siti sac, nga fin konauk longoul.”
32 Finally, Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak once more. Suppose ten are found there?” And He answered, “On account of the ten, I will not destroy it.”
Abraham el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas nikmet kasrkusrak, ma na safla se pa nge. Ac fin mwet na singoul koneyukyak?” Ac El fahk, “Nga fah tia pac kunausla fin oasr mwet singoul.”
33 When the LORD had finished speaking with Abraham, He departed, and Abraham returned home.
Tukun el kaskas nu sel Abraham tari, LEUM GOD El som, ac Abraham el folokla nu acn sel.
