Genesis 19
1 And the two Angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting at the gate of the city. And when he had seen them, he rose up and went to meet them. And he reverenced prone on the ground.
Kalvantami kahni touh tangmin lah Sodom kho a tho roi. Lot teh khopui thung kâennae longkha koe a tahung teh, Lot ni ahnimouh roi a hmu navah dawn hanelah a thaw teh, talai dawk a tabo.
2 And he said: “I beg you, my lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and lodge there. Wash your feet, and in the morning you will advance on your way.” And they said, “Not at all. But we will lodge in the street.”
Ahni ni ka bawipa roi, pahren lahoi na sanpa im kâen roi nateh roe rawi ei. Na khok hai pâsu roi ei telah atipouh. Ahnimouh roi ni telah nahoeh, alawilah ka roe roi han doeh atipouh.
3 He pressed them very much to turn aside to him. And when they had entered his house, he made a feast for them, and he cooked unleavened bread, and they ate.
Hatei, puenghoi a pasawt dawkvah, ahni koe a cei roi teh, im thung a kâen roi. Hahoi, tonphuenhoehe vaiyei a poe teh a ca roi.
4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city surrounded the house, from boys to old men, all the people together.
Ahnimanaw a i awh hoehnahlan vah, Sodom kho e tongpa camo matawng abuemlah a tho awh teh, im khik a kalup awh.
5 And they called out to Lot, and they said to him: “Where are the men who entered to you in the night? Bring them out here, so that we may know them.”
Lot a kaw awh teh, tapa tangmin lah na im ka tho e tami roi namaw ao. Hote tami roi ikhai hanelah ka ngai awh, alawilah tâcawt sak telah atipouh awh.
6 Lot went out to them, and blocking the door behind him, he said:
Lot teh takhang koehoi alawilah ahnimouh koe a tâco teh, tho a khan hnukkhu,
7 “Do not, I ask you, my brothers, do not be willing to commit this evil.
ka hmaunawnghanaw pahren lahoi thoenae sak awh hanh.
8 I have two daughters who as yet have not known man. I will bring them out to you; abuse them as it pleases you, provided that you do no evil to these men, because they have entered under the shadow of my roof.”
Khenhaw! tongpa ka panuek hoeh rae ka canu kahni touh ka tawn. Na ngai patetlah na ti thai awh. Hatdawkvah, pahren lahoi ahnimouh roi nangmouh koe ka tâco sak han. Imyin roi koe teh banghai sak awh hanh.
9 But they said, “Move away from there.” And again: “You have entered,” they said, “as a stranger; should you then judge? Therefore, we will afflict you yourself more than them.” And they acted very violently against Lot. And they were now at the point of breaking open the doors.
Ahnimanaw ni, kâhnawnh telah atipouh awh. Hahoi nang teh imyin lah na o eiteh, lawkcengkung lah o hanelah na kâcai. Hatdawkvah, ahnimanaw koe ka sak awh e hlak nang koe hoe kathout lah ka sak awh han telah atipouh awh. Hahoi Lot hah rek a savek awh teh, tho hai peng raphoe hanelah a tho awh.
10 And behold, the men put out their hand, and they pulled Lot in to them, and they closed the door.
Hatei, ahnimouh roi ni a kut hoi imthung lah Lot hah a sawn roi teh, tho khik a khan sin roi.
11 And they struck those who were outside with blindness, from the least to the greatest, so that they were not able to find the door.
Tho teng kaawm e tami kathoeng kalen abuemlahoi a mit a dawn sak teh, tho hmawt thai awh hoeh.
12 Then they said to Lot: “Do you have here anyone of yours? All who are yours, sons-in-law, or sons, or daughters, bring them out of this city.
Ahnimouh roi ni Lot koevah, hivah nang hoi na kâkuen e tami ao rah maw. Na langa, capanaw, canunaw, hoehpawiteh, khothung kaawm e tâcawtkhai leih.
13 For we will eliminate this place, because the outcry among them has increased before the Lord, who sent us to destroy them.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hmalah a hramki awh teh, a tarannae a len poung toe. Hatdawkvah, hie hmuen raphoe hanelah BAWIPA ni na patoun roi e doeh telah atipouh.
14 And so Lot, going out, spoke to his sons-in-law, who were going to receive his daughters, and he said: “Rise up. Depart from this place. For the Lord will destroy this city.” And it seemed to them that he was speaking playfully.
Lot a tâco teh, a canu ka lat e a cavanaw koevah, thaw awh leih. Hete hmuen heh tâcawt takhai awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni khopui a raphoe han toe atipouh. Hatei, a cavanaw ni panuilai lah a pouk awh.
15 And when it was morning, the Angels compelled him, saying, “Arise, take your wife, and the two daughters that you have, lest you also should perish amid the wickedness of the city.”
Amom kho vumpava a dai navah, kalvantami roi ni, thaw leih, na yu hoi na canu roi tâcawtkhai leih, nahoeh pawiteh, hete kho reknae na khang payon vaih telah ngangngang a cangawt.
16 And, since he ignored them, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, as well as that of his two daughters, because the Lord was sparing him.
Hatei, a hnanthoe dawkvah, kalvantami roi ni, ama hoi a yu, a canu roi hoi a kut dawk hoi a sawn teh, khopui alawilah a tâcokhai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni a pahren dawk doeh.
17 And they brought him out, and placed him beyond the city. And there they spoke to him, saying: “Save your life. Do not look back. Neither should you stay in the entire surrounding region. But save yourself in the mountain, lest you also should perish.”
Alawilah, a tâcokhai awh hnukkhu, na hringnae a hlout thai nahanlah yawng leih. Hnuklah kamlang laihoi khen hanh. Tanghling koe khoeroe awm hanh. Mon vah yawng leih. Nahoeh pawiteh na due han telah atipouh.
18 And Lot said to them: “I beg you, my lord,
Lot ni ahnimouh roi koe, telah nahoeh, ka bawipa roi.
19 though your servant has found grace before you, and you have magnified your mercy, which you have shown to me in saving my life, I cannot be saved on the mountain, lest perhaps some misfortune take hold of me and I die.
Na sanpa ni na mithmu vah minhmai kahawi ka hmu toe. Ka hringnae na hlout sak teh, kai dawk lungpatawnae kalen poung na kamnue sak toe. Hatei, mon lah teh ka yawng thai mahoeh. Telah nahoeh pawiteh, runae ni na kei vaiteh, kadout han doeh.
20 There is a certain city nearby, to which I can flee; it is a little one, and I will be saved in it. Is it not a modest one, and will not my soul live?”
Khenhaw! hote kho teh yawng nahane a hnaica. Kho kathoungcalah hai ao. Hote kho kathoengca koe na yawng sak haw. Ka hring han doeh telah atipouh.
21 And he said to him: “Behold, even now, I have heard your petitions about this, not to overturn the city on behalf of which you have spoken.
Ahnimouh roi ni na kâhei e patetlah lung na kuep khai toe. Na dei e kho teh ka raphoe mahoeh.
22 Hurry and be saved there. For I cannot do anything until you enter there.” For this reason, the name of that city is called Zoar.
Karanglah hawvah yawng leih. Hote kho dawk na pha hoehnahlan bang hno hai ka sak thai mahoeh atipouh. Hatdawkvah, hote kho teh Zoar telah min a phung.
23 The sun had risen over the land, and Lot had entered into Zoar.
Zoar kho dawk Lot a kâen navah talai van kanî teh a tâconae toe.
24 Therefore, the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah sulphur and fire, from the Lord, out of heaven.
Hahoi BAWIPA ni BAWIPA ma koehoi e ganhmai Sodom hoi Gomorrah kho dawk kho lah a rak sak.
25 And he overturned these cities, and all the surrounding region: all the inhabitants of the cities, and everything that springs from the land.
Hote khopui roi hoi thingyei yawn pueng, khopui karingkungnaw abuemlah talai hoi ka paw e thingkung pueng koung a raphoe.
26 And his wife, looking behind herself, was turned into a statue of salt.
Hatei, a yu teh hnuklah a kangvawi dawkvah, palawi khom lah a kangcoung.
27 Then Abraham, rising up in the morning, in the place where he had stood before with the Lord,
Abraham teh BAWIPA hmalah a kangduenae hmuen koe amom vah a cei.
28 looked out toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and the entire land of that region. And he saw embers rising up from the land like smoke from a furnace.
Sodom hoi Gomorrah thingyei yawn pueng a khet navah, takhuen koe e hmaikhu patetlah ram pueng dawk e hmaikhu kahlun lah a luen e hah a hmu.
29 For when God overthrew the cities of that region, remembering Abraham, he freed Lot from the overthrow of the cities, in which he had dwelt.
Hottelah Cathut ni thingyei yawn dawk e khopuinaw a raphoe lahunnah hoi Lot onae khopuinaw a raphoe nah Cathut ni Abraham a pahnim hoeh dawkvah, Lot teh rawknae koehoi a hlout sak.
30 And Lot ascended from Zoar, and he stayed on the mountain, and likewise his two daughters with him, (for he was afraid to stay in Zoar) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
Hottelah Lot teh, Zoar kho hoi a luen teh mon dawk kho a sak. A canu kahni touh hai ama koe ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Zoar kho dawk o hane ngam hoeh. Hahoi a canu kahni touh hoi lungngoum thung ao awh.
31 And the elder said to the younger: “Our father is old, and no man remains in the land who can enter to us according to the custom of the whole world.
A canu kacue e ni a nawngha koe, apa a matawng toe, talai van e phung patetlah maimouh roi na ka ipkhai hane tongpa awm hoeh.
32 Come, let us inebriate him with wine, and let us sleep with him, so that we may be able to preserve offspring from our father.”
Thohaw, apa misurtui pânei roi sei. Apa e miphun apout hoeh nahanlah ipkhai roi sei, telah atipouh.
33 And so they gave their father wine to drink that night. And the elder went in, and she slept with her father. But he did not perceive it, neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.
Hote tangmin vah, misurtui a na pa a pânei roi teh, a na pa ni a ikhai e hoi bout a thaw e hah panuek hoeh.
34 Likewise, the next day, the elder said to the younger: “Behold, yesterday I slept with my father, let us give him wine to drink yet again this night, and you will sleep with him, so that we may save offspring from our father.”
Atangtho amom teh, kacue e ni paduem tangmin apa hoi kai ka i roi toe. Atu tangmin vah misurtui bout pânei sei. Apa e miphun a pout hoeh nahanelah, nang louk ipkhai loe atipouh.
35 And then they gave their father wine to drink that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and slept with him. And not even then did he perceive when she lay down, or when she rose up.
Hote tangmin haiyah a na pa misurtui a pânei roi hnukkhu, kanaw e ni a na pa a ikhai teh, a i e hoi bout a thaw e a na pa ni panuek hoeh.
36 Therefore, the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.
Hottelah Lot e canu roi teh camo a vawn roi.
37 And the elder gave birth to a son, and she called his name Moab. He is the father of the Moabites, even to the present day.
Kacue e ni tongpa a khe teh, Moab telah a min a phung. Hote tami teh atu kaawm e Moab miphunnaw e a na pa lah ao.
38 Likewise, the younger gave birth to a son, and she called his name Ammon, that is, ‘the son of my people.’ He is the father of the Ammonites, even today.
Kanaw e ni hai tongpa a khe teh, Benammi telah min a phung. Hote tami teh sahnin totouh kaawm e Ammon miphunnaw e a na pa doeh.
