Genesis 19
1 And at nightfall the two angels came to Sodom; and Lot was seated at the way into the town: and when he saw them he got up and came before them, falling down on his face to the earth.
Van kami hnik loe duembang ah Sodom vangpui ah angzoh hoi; to naah Lot loe Sodom vangpui khongkha ah anghnut; Lot mah nihnik to hnuk hanah angthawk moe, mikhmai long ah kuep tathuk.
2 And he said, My masters, come now into your servant's house and take your rest there for the night, and let your feet be washed; and early in the morning you may go on your way. And they said, Not so, but we will take our night's rest in the street.
Anih mah, Khenah, ka Angraeng hnik, vaihi na tamna im ah angzo hoi ah; khok amsae hoih loe, duem to iip hoi ah; khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk hoih loe caeh hoih, tiah a naa. Nihnik mah, To tih na ai, Kaihnik loe qum puek loklam ah ka oh hoi han, tiah a naa.
3 But he made his request more strongly, so they went with him into his house; and he got food ready for them, and made unleavened bread, of which they took.
Toe anih mah pacae khruek pongah, anih hnuk ah bang hoi moe, anih imthung ah akun hoi; nihnik hanah caak koi, taeh thuh ai ih takaw to patoem pae moe, a caak hoi.
4 But before they had gone to bed, the men of the town, all the men of Sodom, came round the house, young and old, from every part of the town;
Toe nihnik iip hoi ai naah, Sodom vangpui thung ih kaminawk, thendoeng hoi mitongnawk, ahmuen kruek ih kaminawk mah, im to takui o khoep.
5 And crying out to Lot, they said, Where are the men who came to your house this night? Send them out to us, so that we may take our pleasure with them.
Nihcae mah Lot to kawk o moe, anih khaeah, Vai qum ah na im ah katoem nongpanawk loe naa ah maw oh o? Kaicae khaeah na patoeh ah, ka zae o haih han vop, tiah a naa o.
6 And Lot went out to them in the doorway, shutting the door after him.
Lot loe nihcae khaeah tasa bang ah caeh moe, a hnuk bang ih thok to khah pacoengah,
7 And he said, My brothers, do not this evil.
nihcae khaeah, Nawkamyanawk, tahmenhaih hoi to baktih kasae hmuen to sah o hmah.
8 See now, I have two unmarried daughters; I will send them out to you so that you may do to them whatever seems good to you: only do nothing to these men, for this is why they have come under the shade of my roof.
Khenah, nongpa hoi iip vai ai canu hnetto ka tawnh; nihnik to nangcae khaeah kang zoh haih han, na koeh o ih baktiah sah oh; toe hae kami hnik loe kawbang doeh sah o hmah; nihnik loe ka imphu tlim ah kabuep angvin ni, tiah a naa.
9 And they said, Give way there. This one man, they said, came here from a strange country, and will he now be our judge? now we will do worse to you than to them; and pushing violently against Lot, they came near to get the door broken in.
Nihcae mah, Hnuk angnawn ah, tiah naa o. To pacoengah nihcae mah, Nang loe hae ah angvin ah ni nang zoh, toe vaihi loe lokcaekkung ah oh han na koeh; nihnik pong kanung kue ah nangmah to kang sak o lat han, tiah a naa o. Lot to hmaang o moe, thok to phraek hanah a caeh o.
10 But the men put out their hands and took Lot into the house to them, shutting the door again.
Toe van kami hnik loe ban payangh hoi moe, Lot to imthung ah zaeh hoi pacoengah, thok to khah hoi khoep.
11 But the men who were outside the door they made blind, all of them, small and great, so that they were tired out with looking for the door.
Nihnik mah kathoeng kalen tih ai, thok taengah kaom, kaminawk to mikmaengsak boih pongah, nihcae loe thok pakrong naah angpho o.
12 Then the men said to Lot, Are there any others of your family here? sons-in-law or sons or daughters, take them all out of this place;
To ih kami hnik mah Lot khaeah, Hae ahmuen ah na imthung takoh kaminawk oh o vop maw? Vangpui thung kaom, na canu ih sava, na capanawk, na canunawk to hae ahmuen hoi tacawt haih boih lai ah.
13 For we are about to send destruction on this place, because a great outcry against them has come to the ears of the Lord; and the Lord has sent us to put an end to the town.
Hae ahmuen hae ka phraek hoi han boeh; hae ih kaminawk hanghaih lok Angraeng ih naa ah koi sut boeh pongah, hae vangpui hae phraek hanah ang patoeh boeh, tiah a naa.
14 And Lot went out and said to his sons-in-law, who were married to his daughters, Come, let us go out of this place, for the Lord is about to send destruction on the town. But his sons-in-law did not take him seriously.
To pongah Lot loe tacawt moe, a canu kazu haih, a canu ih sava khaeah, Angthawk ah loe, hae ahmuen hoiah tacawt hoi lai ah; Angraeng mah hae vangpui hae phrae tih boeh, tiah a naa. Toe a canu ih sava hnik mah loe tamhnuilok thuih rumram ih lok tok mue, tiah a poek hoi.
15 And when morning came, the angels did all in their power to make Lot go, saying, Get up quickly and take your wife and your two daughters who are here, and go, for fear that you come to destruction in the punishment of the town.
Khodai naah loe, van kami hnik mah Lot khaeah, Karangah angthawk ah loe, hae ah kaom na zu hoi na canu hnik to kawk ah; to tih ai nahaeloe hae vangpui zaehaih mah na pha thuih moeng tih, tiah a naa.
16 But while he was waiting, the men took him and his wife and his daughters by the hand, for the Lord had mercy on them, and put them outside the town.
Angtawt hnung parai pongah, Angraeng mah nihcae to tahmen, to naah van kami hnik mah Lot ih ban, a zu hoi a canu hnik ih ban to patawnh pae, vangpui tasa bang khoek to zaeh moe, caeh haih.
17 And when they had put them out, he said, Go for your life, without looking back or waiting in the lowland; go quickly to the mountain or you will come to destruction.
Nihcae to vangpui tasa bang khoek to zaeh pacoengah loe anih mah, Na hing o hanah cawn oh, hnukbang angqoi o hmah loe, azawn ah doeh anghak o hmah, mae nuiah cawn oh; to tih ai nahaeloe na dueh o moeng tih, tiah a naa.
18 And Lot said to them, Not so, O my Lord;
Toe Lot mah nihnik khaeah, Aw, ka angraeng, to tih na ai ni;
19 See now, your servant has had grace in your eyes and great is your mercy in keeping my life from destruction, but I am not able to get as far as the mountain before evil overtakes me and death;
khenah, vaihi na tamna kai loe mikcuk naakrak ah ka oh pongah, nang tahmenhaih amtuengsak moe, ka hinghaih nang pathlung boeh; toe mae ah loe ka cawn thai ai; sethaih maeto ka tongh ueloe, ka dueh moeng tih.
20 This town, now, is near, and it is a little one: O, let me go there (is it not a little one?) so that my life may be safe.
Khenah, vaihi cawnhhaih kanghnai daek ah vangpui tetta maeto oh, to ih vangpui tetta ah na cawnsak ah; (to vangpui loe tetta na ai maw?) to ah ka cawnh nahaeloe ka hinghaih loih tih, tiah a naa.
21 And he said, See, I have given you your request in this one thing more: I will not send destruction on this town.
Anih mah, khenah, nang thuih ih lok to ka tapom, nang hnik ih baktih toengah, to vangpui to ka phrae mak ai.
22 Go there quickly, for I am not able to do anything till you have come there. For this reason, the town was named Zoar.
Toe to ah karangah cawn ah, to ahmuen na pha ai karoek to tidoeh ka sah thai mak ai, tiah a naa. To pongah to vangpui to Zoar, tiah ahmin sak.
23 The sun was up when Lot came to Zoar.
Zoar vangpui thungah Lot akun naah loe, long nuiah ni tacawt boeh.
24 Then the Lord sent fire and flaming smoke raining down from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah.
To naah Angraeng mah van bang hoiah kaat hmai hoi kangqong hmai to Sodom hoi Gomorrah vangpui nuiah khotui baktiah angzohsak.
25 And he sent destruction on those towns, with all the lowland and all the people of those towns and every green thing in the land.
To vangpuinawk hoi nawnto azawn boih, vangpui thungah kaom kaminawk boih, long ah kamprawk akungnawk to amro boih.
26 But Lot's wife, looking back, became a pillar of salt.
Toe Lot zu loe hnukbang ah angqoi pongah, paloi tungah angcoeng ving.
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning and went to the place where he had been talking with the Lord:
Abraham loe khawnbang khawnthaw ah angthawk moe, Angraeng hmaa ah angdoethaih ahmuen ah caeh;
28 And looking in the direction of Sodom and Gomorrah and the lowland, he saw the smoke of the land going up like the smoke of an oven.
Sodom hoi Gomorrah, azawn boih to doeng tathuk; khenah, hmaitikhaih ahmuen ih hmaikhue baktiah prae thung boih ah tacawt hmaikhue to a hnuk.
29 So it came about that when God sent destruction on the towns of the lowland, he kept his word to Abraham, and sent Lot safely away when he put an end to the towns where he was living.
Angraeng mah azawn ih vangpuinawk to phraek naah, Sithaw mah Abraham to pahnet ai, Lot ohhaih vangpui to phraek han oh naah doeh, kamro vangpui thung hoiah Lot to a loihsak.
30 Then Lot went up out of Zoar to the mountain, and was living there with his two daughters, for fear kept him from living in Zoar: and he and his daughters made their living-place in a hole in the rock.
Lot loe Zoar vangpui thungah oh han zit pongah, Zoar vangpui thung hoiah tacawt moe, a canu hnik hoi nawnto mae nuiah khosak; a canu hnik hoi nawnto thlung khaw thungah oh.
31 And the older daughter said to her sister, Our father is old, and there is no man to be a husband to us in the natural way:
Nito naah loe a canu kacoeh mah, a canu kanawk khaeah, Aihnik ampa loe mitong boeh, long pum ah aihnik iih haih han angzo nongpa maeto doeh om ai boeh.
32 Come, let us give our father much wine, and we will go into his bed, so that we may have offspring by our father,
Pa ih atii anghmat han ai ah, aihnik ampa to misurtui naesak si loe, anih to iip haih si, tiah a naa.
33 And that night they made their father take much wine; and the older daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.
To na aqum ah ampa to misurtui panaek hoi moe, canu kacoeh mah ampa to iih haih; a canu mah natuek naah maw iih haih moe, natuek naah maw angthawk taak, tito ampa mah panoek ai.
34 And on the day after, the older daughter said to the younger, Last night I was with my father; let us make him take much wine this night again, and do you go to him, so that we may have offspring by our father.
Khawnbang ah loe a canu kacoeh mah amnawk khaeah, Khenah, cangduem aqum ah pa to ka iih haih; vaiduem doeh misurtui naesak let si; anih khaeah nang caeh ah loe, pa ih atii anghmat han ai ah, nang doeh anih to iip haih toeng ah, tiah a naa.
35 And that night again they made their father take much wine; and the younger daughter went into his bed; and he had no knowledge of when she went in or when she went away.
To naduem doeh ampa to misurtui panaek hoi let, canu kanawk loe angthawk moe, ampa to iih haih; natuek naah maw iih haih moe, natuek naah maw angthawk, tito ampa mah panoek ai.
36 And so the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
To pongah a canu hnik loe ampa ih caa to pomh hoi hmaek.
37 And the older daughter had a son, and she gave him the name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites to this day.
Canu kacoeh mah capa maeto sak moe Moab, tiah ahmin phui; anih loe vaihni ni khoek to Moab kaminawk ih ampa ah oh.
38 And the younger had a son and gave him the name Ben-ammi: from him come the children of Ammon to this day.
Canu kanawk mah doeh capa maeto sak moe Ben-Ammi, tiah ahmin phui; anih loe vaihni ni khoek to Ammon kaminawk ih ampa ah oh.
