< Genesis 19 >

1 Now the two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gateway of the city. When Lot saw them, he got up to meet them, bowed facedown,
Mala’ikun nan biyu suka iso Sodom da yamma. Lot kuwa yana zama a hanyar shiga birnin. Da ya gan su, sai ya tashi don yă tarye su, ya kuma rusuna da fuskarsa har ƙasa.
2 and said, “My lords, please turn aside into the house of your servant; wash your feet and spend the night. Then you can rise early and go on your way.” “No,” they answered, “we will spend the night in the square.”
Ya ce, “Ranku yă daɗe, ina roƙonku ku ratsa zuwa gidan bawanku. Ku wanke ƙafafunku, ku kwana, sa’an nan ku kama hanyarku da sassafe.” Suka ce, “A’a, za mu kwana a dandali.”
3 But Lot insisted so strongly that they followed him into his house. He prepared a feast for them and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
Amma ya nace musu ƙwarai, sai suka tafi tare da shi, suka kuma shiga gidansa. Ya shirya musu abinci, ya gasa burodi marasa yisti, suka ci.
4 Before they had gone to bed, all the men of the city of Sodom, both young and old, surrounded the house.
Kafin suka shiga barci, sai ga dukan mutane, ƙanana da manya daga kowane ɓangare na birnin Sodom, suka kewaye gidan.
5 They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Send them out to us so we can have relations with them!”
Suka kira Lot, suka ce, “Ina mutanen da suka zo wurinka a daren nan? Fito mana da su waje domin mu kwana da su.”
6 Lot went outside to meet them, shutting the door behind him.
Lot ya fita daga cikin gida, ya rufe ƙofar a bayansa. Ya je wurin mutanen
7 “Please, my brothers,” he pleaded, “don’t do such a wicked thing!
ya ce musu, “A’a, abokaina kada ku yi wannan mummunan abu.
8 Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them to you, and you can do to them as you please. But do not do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof.”
Duba, ina da’ya’ya mata biyu waɗanda ba su taɓa sanin namiji ba, bari in kawo muku su ku yi kome da kuke so da su. Amma kada ku taɓa waɗannan mutane, gama su baƙina ne kuma dole in tsare su.”
9 “Get out of the way!” they replied. And they declared, “This one came here as a foreigner, and he is already acting like a judge! Now we will treat you worse than them.” And they pressed in on Lot and moved in to break down the door.
Sai mutanen birnin suka amsa, “Ba mu wuri! Wannan mutum ya zo nan kamar baƙo, ga shi yanzu yana so yă zama alƙali! Za mu wulaƙanta ka fiye da su.” Suka ci gaba da matsa wa Lot lamba, suka matsa kusa domin su fasa ƙofar.
10 But the men inside reached out, pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
Amma mutanen da suke ciki suka miƙa hannunsu, suka ja Lot zuwa cikin gida, suka rufe ƙofar.
11 And they struck the men at the entrance, young and old, with blindness, so that they wearied themselves trying to find the door.
Sai suka bugi mutanen da suke a bakin ƙofar gidan da makanta, ƙanana da manya duka, har suka gajiyar da kansu, suna lalluba inda ƙofar take.
12 Then the two men said to Lot, “Do you have anyone else here—a son-in-law, your sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here,
Mutanen nan biyun suka ce wa Lot, “Kana da wani a nan, ko surukai, ko’ya’ya maza ko mata, ko kuwa wani dai a cikin birni wanda yake naka? Ka fitar da su daga nan,
13 because we are about to destroy this place. For the outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that He has sent us to destroy it.”
gama za mu hallaka wannan wuri. Kukan da aka yi ga Ubangiji game da mutanen birnin nan ya yi yawa sosai, ya sa har ya aiko mu domin mu hallaka birnin.”
14 So Lot went out and spoke to the sons-in-law who were pledged in marriage to his daughters. “Get up,” he said. “Get out of this place, for the LORD is about to destroy the city!” But his sons-in-law thought he was joking.
Saboda haka Lot ya tafi ya yi magana da surukansa waɗanda suka yi alkawari za su aure’ya’yansa mata. Ya ce, “Ku yi sauri ku fita daga wannan wuri, gama Ubangiji yana gab da hallaka birnin.” Amma surukansa suka ɗauka wasa yake yi.
15 At daybreak the angels hurried Lot along, saying, “Get up! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city.”
Gari na wayewa, sai mala’ikun nan suka ƙarfafa Lot suna cewa, “Yi sauri! Ka ɗauki matarka da’ya’yanka biyu mata waɗanda suke a nan, don kada a shafe ku sa’ad da ake hukunta birnin.”
16 But when Lot hesitated, the men grabbed his hand and the hands of his wife and his two daughters. And they led them safely out of the city, because of the LORD’s compassion for them.
Da yana jan jiki, sai mutanen suka kama hannunsa da hannuwan matarsa da na’ya’yansa biyu mata, suka kai su bayan birni, gama Ubangiji ya nuna musu jinƙai.
17 As soon as the men had brought them out, one of them said, “Run for your lives! Do not look back, and do not stop anywhere on the plain! Flee to the mountains, or you will be swept away!”
Da suka fitar da su, sai ɗaya daga cikin mala’ikun ya ce, “Ku gudu domin ranku; kada ku duba baya, kada kuma ku tsaya ko’ina cikin kwarin! Ku gudu zuwa cikin duwatsu, don kada a hallaka ku!”
18 But Lot replied, “No, my lords, please!
Amma Lot ya ce musu, “A’a, ranka yă daɗe, ka yi haƙuri!
19 Your servant has indeed found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness by sparing my life. But I cannot run to the mountains; the disaster will overtake me, and I will die.
Bawanku ya riga ya sami tagomashi daga gare ku, kun kuma nuna mini alheri mai yawa. Ba zan iya in gudu zuwa duwatsu ba, wannan masifa za tă same ni, zan kuma mutu.
20 Look, there is a town nearby where I can flee, and it is a small place. Please let me flee there—is it not a small place? Then my life will be saved.”
Ga ɗan gari can ya fi kusa inda zan gudu in fake. Bari in gudu zuwa can, in tsirar da raina.”
21 “Very well,” he answered, “I will grant this request as well, and will not demolish the town you indicate.
Sai ya ce masa, “Na yarda da abin da ka ce, ba zan hallakar da garin da ka ambata ba.
22 Hurry! Run there quickly, for I cannot do anything until you reach it.” That is why the town was called Zoar.
Gaggauta, ka gudu zuwa can, ba zan yi kome ba sai ka isa can.” (Domin haka ne ake kira garin Zowar.)
23 And by the time the sun had risen over the land, Lot had reached Zoar.
A lokacin da Lot ya isa Zowar, rana ta hau.
24 Then the LORD rained down sulfur and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah—from the LORD out of the heavens.
Sai Ubangiji ya yi ta zuba kibiritu a bisa Sodom da Gomorra daga sama.
25 Thus He destroyed these cities and the entire plain, including all the inhabitants of the cities and everything that grew on the ground.
Haka ya hallakar da waɗannan birane da kuma kwarinsu gaba ɗaya, haɗe da dukan waɗanda suke zama a biranen, da kuma dukan shuke-shuke da suke cikin ƙasar.
26 But Lot’s wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
Amma matar Lot ta waiwaya baya, ta kuma zama ginshiƙin gishiri.
27 Early the next morning, Abraham got up and returned to the place where he had stood before the LORD.
Da sassafe kashegari, Ibrahim ya tashi ya koma wurin da dā ya tsaya a gaban Ubangiji.
28 He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah and all the land of the plain, and he saw the smoke rising from the land like smoke from a furnace.
Ya duba ta wajen Sodom da Gomorra, da wajen dukan filayen ƙasar, sai ya ga hayaƙi baƙin ƙirin yana tashi daga ƙasar kamar hayaƙi daga matoya.
29 So when God destroyed the cities of the plain, He remembered Abraham, and He brought Lot out of the catastrophe that destroyed the cities where he had lived.
Saboda haka sa’ad da Allah ya hallaka waɗannan biranen kwarin, ya tuna da Ibrahim, ya kuma fitar da Lot daga masifar da ta hallaka biranen da Lot ya zauna.
30 Lot and his two daughters left Zoar and settled in the mountains—for he was afraid to stay in Zoar—where they lived in a cave.
Lot da’ya’yansa biyu mata suka bar Zowar suka kuma zauna a cikin duwatsu, gama ya ji tsoro yă zauna a Zowar. Shi da’ya’yansa biyu mata suka zauna a ciki wani kogo.
31 One day the older daughter said to the younger, “Our father is old, and there is no man in the land to sleep with us, as is the custom over all the earth.
Wata rana’yarsa babba ta ce wa ƙanuwarta, “Mahaifinmu ya tsufa, kuma babu wani mutum kusa a nan da zai yi mana ciki mu haifi’ya’ya; yadda al’ada take a ko’ina a duniya.
32 Come, let us get our father drunk with wine so we can sleep with him and preserve his line.”
Bari mu sa mahaifinmu yă sha ruwan inabi, sa’an nan sai mu kwana da shi, don kada zuriyar mahaifinmu ta ƙare.”
33 So that night they got their father drunk with wine, and the firstborn went in and slept with her father; he was not aware when she lay down or when she got up.
A wannan dare, suka sa mahaifinsu ya sha ruwan inabi,’yar farin ta shiga ta kwana da shi. Shi kuwa bai san sa’ad da ta kwanta ko sa’ad da ta tashi ba.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger, “Look, I slept with my father last night. Let us get him drunk with wine again tonight so you can go in and sleep with him and we can preserve our father’s line.”
Kashegari,’yar farin ta ce wa ƙanuwar, “Jiya da dare na kwana da mahaifina. Bari mu sa yă sha ruwan inabi kuma yau da dare, ke ma ki shiga ki kwana da shi, domin kada zuriyar mahaifinmu ta ƙare.”
35 So again that night they got their father drunk with wine, and the younger daughter went in and slept with him; he was not aware when she lay down or when she got up.
Sai suka sa mahaifinsu ya sha ruwan inabi, a wannan dare ma, ƙanuwar ta shiga ta kwana da shi. Bai kuwa san sa’ad da ta kwanta ko sa’ad da ta tashi ba.
36 Thus both of Lot’s daughters became pregnant by their father.
Ta haka’ya’yan Lot biyu mata duk suka yi ciki daga mahaifinsu.
37 The older daughter gave birth to a son and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites of today.
’Yar farin ta haifi ɗa, ta kuma ba shi suna Mowab, shi ne mahaifin Mowabawa a yau.
38 The younger daughter also gave birth to a son, and she named him Ben-ammi. He is the father of the Ammonites of today.
’Yar ƙaramar ma ta haifi ɗa, ta kuwa ba shi suna Ben-Ammi, shi ne mahaifin Ammonawa a yau.
