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.
Alò, de zanj te vini Sodome nan aswè lè Lot te chita nan pòtay Sodome nan. Lè Lot te wè yo, li te leve pou rankontre yo. Li te bese ba avèk figi li atè.
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.
Epi li te di: “Koulye a, gade byen, frè m yo, souple vire akote nan kay sèvitè ou a, pou pase nwit lan. Lave pye nou, pou nou kapab leve bonè pou fè wout nou.” Malgre sa, yo te di: “Non, men nou va pase nwit lan nan lari a.”
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.
Men li te plede avèk yo avèk fòs. Konsa yo te vire akote vè li e te antre lakay li a, e li te prepare yon gwo manje pou yo. Anplis li te kwit pen san ledven a, e yo te manje.
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;
Avan yo gen tan kouche, mesye Sodome yo te antoure kay la, ni jèn, ni vye, tout moun ki te sòti nan tout katye yo.
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.
Konsa, yo te rele Lot e te di li: “Kote mesye sa yo ki te vin kote ou aswè a? Mennen yo bannou pou nou kapab antre an relasyon avèk yo.”
6 And Lot went out to them in the doorway, shutting the door after him.
Men Lot te sòti kote yo nan pòtay la, e te fèmen pòt la dèyè l.
7 And he said, My brothers, do not this evil.
Li te di: “Souple, frè m yo, pa aji avèk mechanste.
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.
Byen gade, mwen gen de fi ki pa janm antre an relasyon avèk yon gason. Souple, kite m mennen yo deyò pou nou, e fè avèk yo sa ke nou pito, men pa fè anyen avèk mesye sa yo, akoz se anba pwotèj twati mwen yo gen tan vini.”
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.
Men yo te di: “Mete ou akote.” Anplis ke sa yo te di: “Sila te antre tankou etranje, e deja l ap aji kòm jij. Pou sa a, nou va trete ou pi mal pase yo.” Epi yo te peze rèd kont Lot, e yo te prèt pou kase pòt la.
10 But the men put out their hands and took Lot into the house to them, shutting the door again.
Men mesye yo nan kay la te lonje men yo rale Lot anndan avèk yo, e yo te fèmen pòt la.
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.
Yo te frape mesye ki te nan pòtay kay la pou yo vin avèg, ni piti ni gran, pou yo fatige kò yo e pou yo pa t ka twouve pòt la.
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;
Konsa, de mesye yo te di Lot: “Kilès ankò ke ou gen isit la? Yon bofis, fis ou yo, e nenpòt moun ou gen nan vil la, mennen yo sòti kite plas sa a,
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.
paske nou prèt pou detwi plas sila a, akoz plent pa yo gen tan vin tèlman gran devan SENYÈ a, ke SENYÈ a te voye nou pou detwi li.”
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.
Lot te ale deyò pou te pale avèk bofis li yo, ki te prèt pou marye avèk fi li yo, e li te di: “Leve sòti kite plas sila a, paske SENYÈ a va detwi vil la.” Men li te sanble a bofis li a ke se yon blag ke li t ap fè.
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.
Lè maten an te rive, zanj yo te bourade Lot. Yo te di l: “Leve, pran madanm ou avèk de fis ou yo ki isit la, oswa ou va vin disparèt nan pinisyon vil la.”
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.
Men li te fè reta. Pou sa, mesye sa yo te sezi men l avèk men madanm li avèk men a de fi li yo, paske konpasyon SENYÈ a te sou li. Yo te mennen li deyò, e yo te mete l deyò vil la.
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.
Lè yo te mennen yo deyò, youn nan yo te di: “Sove ale pou lavi ou! Pa gade dèyè, e pa rete nan okenn kote nan vale a. Sove ale nan mòn yo, oswa ou va detwi nèt.”
18 And Lot said to them, Not so, O my Lord;
Men Lot de di yo: “Alò, li pa konsa, mèt mwen yo!
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;
Koulye a gade byen, sèvitè nou an gen tan twouve favè nan zye nou, nou te montre jan mizerikòd nou gran nan sove vi m, men mwen p ap kapab chape nan mòn yo, paske malè a va gen tan rive sou mwen, e mwen va mouri.
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.
Gade byen, vil sila a ase pre pou m sove ale ladann, e li piti. Souple, kite mwen chape pa la. Èske li pa piti? Konsa vi m kapab sove.”
21 And he said, See, I have given you your request in this one thing more: I will not send destruction on this town.
Li te di li: “Gade byen, mwen ba ou demann sa a tou, pou pa detwi vil la sou sila ou te pale a.
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.
Fè vit, chape rive la, paske mwen pa kapab fè anyen jiskaske ou rive la.” Pou sa yo te rele vil la Tsoar.
23 The sun was up when Lot came to Zoar.
Solèy la te gen tan fin leve sou tè a lè Lot te rive Tsoar.
24 Then the Lord sent fire and flaming smoke raining down from heaven on Sodom and Gomorrah.
Epi SENYÈ a te fè souf avèk dife ki sòti nan syèl la, tonbe tankou lapli sou Sodome avèk Gomorrhe.
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.
Li te detwi vil sila yo, ak tout vale a, ak tout moun ki te rete nan vil yo, ansanm ak sa ki te grandi nan tè a.
26 But Lot's wife, looking back, became a pillar of salt.
Men madanm li ki te dèyè li te gade dèyè, e li te tounen yon pilye sèl.
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning and went to the place where he had been talking with the Lord:
Alò, Abraham te leve granmmaten. Li te ale nan plas kote li te kanpe devan SENYÈ a,
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.
epi li te gade anba vè Sodome avèk Gomorrhe, vè tout teren nan vale a. Li te wè, e gade byen, lafimen te monte tankou lafimen ki sòti nan founo.
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.
Se konsa li rive ke lè Bondye te detwi vil yo nan vale a, ke Li te sonje Abraham. Li te voye Lot deyò dega a, lè li te boulvèse vil yo nan sila Lot te rete.
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 te kite Tsoar e monte. Li te rete nan mòn yo avèk de fi li yo avè l, paske li te pè rete Tsoar. Li te rete nan yon kav, li menm avèk de fis li yo.
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:
Alò premye ne a te vin di a pi Jèn nan: “Papa nou vin vye, e nou pa gen gason sou latè pou vin antre nan nou apre sistèm sou tè a.
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,
Vini, annou fè papa nou bwè diven, e annou kouche avè l pou nou kapab prezève fanmi nou an pa papa nou.”
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.
Pou sa, yo te fè papa yo bwè diven menm nwit lan, e premye ne a te antre kouche avèk papa li. Li pa t konnen ni lè li te kouche a, ni lè li te leve a.
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.
Jou swivan an, premye ne a te di a pi Jèn nan, “Gade byen, yè swa mwen te kouche avèk papa m. Annou fè li bwè diven aswè a tou, epi ou menm antre kouche avè l, pou nou prezève fanmi nou an ak papa nou.”
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.
Alò, yo te fè papa yo bwè diven nan nwit lan tou, epi pi Jèn nan te leve e kouche avè l. Epi li pa t konnen ni lè li te kouche a, ni lè li te leve a.
36 And so the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
Konsa tou de fi a Lot yo te vin ansent pa papa yo.
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.
Premye ne a te fè yon fis, e li te rele non li Moab. Li se papa a Moabit yo jis rive jodi a.
38 And the younger had a son and gave him the name Ben-ammi: from him come the children of Ammon to this day.
Epi pou pi Jèn nan, li te fè yon fis tou, e li te rele li Ben-Ammi. Li se papa a tout fis Ammon yo jis rive jodi a.
