Genesis 18
1 Then the Lord appeared to him, in the steep valley of Mamre, when he was sitting at the door of his tent, in the very heat of the day.
Nagpakita si Yahweh kang Abraham diha sa katugasan ni Mamre, samtang naglingkod siya sa pultahan sa iyang tolda sa kainiton sa adlaw.
2 And when he had lifted up his eyes, there appeared to him three men, standing near him. When he had seen them, he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and he reverenced them on the ground.
Mihangad siya ug, tan-awa, nakita niya ang tulo ka mga lalaki nga nagbarog sa iyang atubangan. Sa pagkakita niya kanila, midagan siya aron sa pagtagbo kanila gikan sa pultahan sa tolda ug miyukbo sa yuta.
3 And he said: “If I, O lord, have found grace in your eyes, do not pass by your servant.
Miingon siya, “Ginoo, kung gikahimut-an mo ako, ayaw sayloi ug biyai ang imong sulugoon.
4 But I will bring a little water, and you may wash your feet and rest under the tree.
Tugoti nga dalhan kamo ug diyutay nga tubig, aron hugasan ang inyong mga tiil, ug pahulay kamo ilalom sa kahoy.
5 And I will set out a meal of bread, so that you may strengthen your heart; after this you will pass on. It is for this reason that you have turned aside to your servant.” And they said, “Do as you have spoken.”
Tugoti ako sa pagdala ug diyutay nga pagkaon, aron mahupay ang inyong kaugalingon. Pagkahuman makapadayon na kamo sa inyong panaw, sanglit mianhi man kamo sa inyong sulugoon.” Ug miingon sila, “Buhata kung unsa ang imong gisulti.”
6 Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah, and he said to her, “Quickly, mix together three measures of the finest wheat flour and make loaves baked under the ashes.”
Unya nagdalidali ug adto si Abraham sa sulod sa barongbarong ngadto kang Sara, ug miingon, “Pagdali, pagkuha ug tulo ka takus sa pinakamaayong harina, masaha kini, ug paghimo ug tinapay.”
7 In truth, he himself ran to the herd, and he took a calf from there, very tender and very good, and he gave it to a servant, who hurried and boiled it.
Unya midagan si Abraham ngadto sa panon sa mga mananap, ug gikuha niya ang nating baka nga humok ug maayo, ug gihatag kini ngadto sa sulugoon, ug gidali niya kini pag-andam.
8 Likewise, he took butter and milk, and the calf which he had boiled, and he placed it before them. Yet truly, he himself stood near them under the tree.
Gikuha niya ang mantikilya ug gatas, ug ang nating baka nga giandam, ug gibutang ang pagkaon sa ilang atubangan, ug nagbarog siya tapad kanila ilalom sa kahoy samtang nangaon sila.
9 And when they had eaten, they said to him, “Where is Sarah your wife?” He answered, “Behold, she is in the tent.”
Miingon sila kaniya, “Diin man si Sara ang imong asawa?” Mitubag siya, “Atua didto sa sulod sa barongbarong.”
10 And he said to him, “When returning, I will come to you at this time, with life as a companion, and your wife Sarah will have a son.” Hearing this, Sarah laughed behind the door of the tent.
Miingon siya, “Mobalik gayod ako kanimo sa tingpamulak, ug tan-awa, ang imong asawa nga si Sara makabaton ug anak nga lalaki.” Naminaw si Sara didto sa pultahan sa tolda, nga anaa sa iyang luyo.
11 Now they were both old, and in an advanced state of life, and it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
Karon si Abraham ug si Sara tigulang na, ug taas na ang pangidaron, ug si Sara wala na sa sakto nga pangidaron nga ang usa ka babaye makabaton pa ug anak.
12 And she laughed secretly, saying, “After I have grown old, and my lord is elderly, shall I give myself to the work of delight?”
Busa mikatawa si Sara sa iyang kaugalingon, nga nag-ingon, “Human nga nagmaluyahon na ako, aduna pa ba akoy kagana, nga ang akong agalon tigulang na man usab?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham: “Why did Sarah laugh, saying: ‘How can I, an old woman, actually give birth?’
Miingon si Yahweh kang Abraham, “Nganong mikatawa man si Sara ug miingon, 'Makabaton pa ba ako ug anak, nga tigulang na man ako?'
14 Is anything difficult for God? According to the announcement, he will return to you at this same time, with life as a companion, and Sarah will have a son.”
Aduna bay lisod kaayo kang Yahweh? Sa panahon nga akong gitagana, sa tingpamulak, mobalik ako kanimo. Sa samang higayon sa sunod tuig makabaton na ug anak nga lalaki si Sara.”
15 Sarah denied it, saying, “I did not laugh.” For she was terribly afraid. But the Lord said, “It is not so; for you did laugh.”
Unya gilimod kini ni Sara ug miingon, “Wala man ako mikatawa,” tungod kay nahadlok siya. Mitubag siya, “Dili, mikatawa ka gayod.”
16 Therefore, when the men had risen up from there, they directed their eyes against Sodom. And Abraham traveled with them, leading them.
Unya mitindog ang mga lalaki aron sa pagbiya ug midungaw paubos sa Sodoma. Miuban si Abraham kanila aron mahatod niya sila sa unahan.
17 And the Lord said: “How could I hide what I am about to do from Abraham,
Apan miingon si Yahweh, “Angay bang itago ko kang Abraham kung unsa ang akong pagahimuon,
18 since he will become a great and very robust nation, and in him all the nations of the earth will be blessed?
sanglit mahimo man gayong usa ka bantogan ug gamhanan nga nasod si Abraham, ug ang tanang nasod sa tibuok kalibotan mapanalanginan tungod kaniya?
19 For I know that he will instruct his sons, and his household after him, to keep to the way of the Lord, and to act with judgment and justice, so that, for the sake of Abraham, the Lord may bring about all the things that he has spoken to him.”
Kay gipili ko siya aron tudloan niya ang iyang mga anak ug ang iyang panimalay sa pagsunod sa paagi ni Yahweh kung wala na siya, sa pagbuhat ug matarong ug husto, aron buhaton ni Yahweh kang Abraham kung unsa ang iyang gisulti ngadto kaniya.”
20 And so the Lord said, “The outcry from Sodom and Gomorrah has been multiplied, and their sin has become exceedingly grievous.
Unya miingon si Yahweh, “Tungod kay ang mga sumbong batok sa Sodoma ug Gomora hilabihan na gayod kadako, ug tungod kay ang ilang mga sala hilabihan na kaayo kadaotan,
21 I will descend and see whether they have fulfilled the work of the outcry that has reached me, or whether it is not so, in order that I may know.”
molugsong ako karon didto ug sutaon ang mga sumbong batok kaniya nga nahiabot kanako, kung tinuod ba gayod nga gibuhat nila kini. Kung wala man, masayran ko.”
22 And they turned themselves from there, and they went toward Sodom. Yet in truth, Abraham still stood in the sight of the Lord.
Busa ang mga lalaki mibiya gikan didto, ug miadto padulong sa Sodoma, apan si Abraham nagpabilin nga nagbarog sa atubangan ni Yahweh.
23 And as they drew near, he said: “Will you destroy the just with the impious?
Unya miduol si Abraham ug miingon, “Imo ba gayong laglagon ang matarong uban sa daotan?
24 If there were fifty of the just in the city, will they perish with the rest? And will you not spare that place for the sake of fifty of the just, if they were in it?
Pananglitan adunay 50 ka matarong nga anaa sa siyudad. Imo ba kining laglagon ug dili luwason ang dapit alang sa 50 ka matarong nga atua didto?
25 Far be it from you to do this thing, and to kill the just with the impious, and for the just to be treated like the impious. No, this is not like you. You judge all the earth; you would never make such a judgment.”
Dili mo gayod mahimo kanang butanga, ang mopatay sa mga matarong uban sa daotan, aron nga ang matarong mahisama sa pagtagad sa mga daotan. Dili mo gayod kana mahimo! Dili ba himoon man sa manghuhukom sa tibuok kalibotan kung unsa ang makiangayon?”
26 And the Lord said to him, “If I find in Sodom fifty of the just in the midst of the city, I will release the entire place because of them.”
Miingon si Yahweh, “Kung makakaplag ako ug 50 ka matarong sa siyudad sa Sodoma, dili ko pagalaglagon ang tibuok nga dapit alang kanila.”
27 And Abraham responded by saying: “Since now I have begun, I will speak to my Lord, though I am dust and ashes.
Mitubag si Abraham ug miingon, “Tan-awa, nakaako ako sa pagpakigsulti sa akong Ginoo, bisan tuod abog lamang ako ug mga abo!
28 What if there were five less than fifty of the just? Would you, despite the forty-five, eliminate the entire city?” And he said, “I will not eliminate it, if I find forty-five there.”
Pananglitan adunay 45 ka matarong? Imo bang laglagon ang tibuok nga siyudad tungod kay kulang ug lima?” Ug miingon siya, “Dili ko kini pagalaglagon, kung makakaplag ako didto ug 45.”
29 And again he said to him, “But if forty were found there, what would you do?” He said, “I will not strike, for the sake of the forty.”
Misulti na usab siya kaniya, ug miingon, “Pananglitan adunay 40 nga imong makaplagan didto?” Mitubag siya, “Dili ko kini buhaton alang niadtong 40.”
30 “I ask you,” he said, “not to be angry, Lord, if I speak. What if thirty were found there?” He responded, “I will not act, if I find thirty there.”
Miingon siya, “Palihog ayaw kasuko, Ginoo, aron makahimo pa ako nga makasulti. Pananglitan adunay 30 nga makaplagan didto.” Mitubag siya, “Dili ko kini buhaton, kung makakaplag ako ug 30 didto.”
31 “Since now I have begun,” he said, “I will speak to my Lord. What if twenty were found there?” He said, “I will not put to death, for the sake of the twenty.”
Miingon siya, “Tan-awa, nakaako ako sa pagsulti sa akong Ginoo! Pananglitan adunay makaplagan nga 20 didto.” Mitubag siya, “Dili ko kini pagalaglagon alang niadtong 20.”
32 “I beg you,” he said, “not to be angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more. What if ten were found there?” And he said, “I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten.”
Miingon siya, “Palihog ayaw kasuko, Ginoo, ug mosulti ako sa makausa pa sa kataposang higayon. Pananglitan makakaplag ka ug napulo didto.” Ug miingon siya, “Dili ko kini pagalaglagon alang niadtong napulo.”
33 And the Lord departed, after he had ceased speaking to Abraham, who then returned to his place.
Mipadulong si Yahweh sa iyang dalan pagkahuman gayod sa iyang pagpakigsulti kang Abraham, ug mibalik si Abraham sa iyang panimalay.
