< Genesis 18 >
1 AND the Lord appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
Na LEUM GOD El sikyang nu sel Abraham ke insak oal sunal Mamre. Ke Abraham el muta ke mutunoa in lohm nuknuk sel, ke pacl na fol ke len uh,
2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
el ngetak ac liye mwet tolu tu insac. Pacl se na el liyalosyak, el yula in osun nu selos. El faksufi
3 And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
ac fahk, “Mwet kacto, nunak munas nimet fahsr aliki lohm sik uh ac tia tui. Nga inge in kulansupwekowos.
4 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
Lela ngan use kutu kof in ohlla niowos. Kowos ku in monglawin ye lulin sak soko inge.
5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
Nga fah use pac kutu mwe mongo in akkeye kowos, na kowos fah sifilpa fahsr. Kowos arulana akmwetyeyu ke kowos tuku nu lohm sik uh. Ke ma inge, fuhlema nga in kulansup nu suwos.” Ac eltal fahk nu sel, “Tarilana. Kut ac wi ma kom fahk an.”
6 And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
Abraham el sulaklak na som nu in lohm nuknuk uh ac fahk nu sel Sarah, “Aksaye, eis sie pak in flao wowo an, kasla, ac sang orauk kutu cake ah.”
7 And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
Na el sifilpa yula nu yen un kosro uh muta we, ac sulela cow fusr na fisrasr ikwa ac factfat soko, ac sang nu sin mwet kulansap se, su sulaklak na akoela.
8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
Ac el us kutu butter, milk, ac ikwen kosro, ac filiya mwe mongo inge ye mutun mwet tolu ah. Na el tupan enenu lalos ke elos mongo ye sak soko ah.
9 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
Na elos siyuk sel, “El aya Sarah, mutan kiom?” Ac el fahk, “El a na lohm ah.”
10 And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
Na sie selos fahk, “Malem eu tukun misenge nga ac foloko, na ac fah oasr wen se natul Sarah, mutan kiom.” Sarah el tu tokol ke mutunoa in lohm nuknuk uh, ac porongo.
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
Abraham ac Sarah arulana matuoh, ac tui musen mutan lal Sarah.
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
Ouinge Sarah el israsrla ac nunku in el sifacna, “Inge ke nga matuoh ac wanginla kuiyuk, ya nga ac srakna pwar in oan yurin mukul tumuk? Saya, el arulana matuoh pac.”
13 And the Lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
Na LEUM GOD El siyuk sel Abraham, “Efu Sarah el ku israsr ac fahk, ‘Ya pwaye ku in oasr tulik se nutik ke nga arulana matuoh?’
14 Is any thing too hard for the Lord? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
Ya oasr ma LEUM GOD El kofla nu kac? Oana ke nga fahk tari, tukun malem eu nga fah foloko, na ac fah oasr wen se natul Sarah.”
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
Ke sripen Sarah el sangeng, el lafwekin ac fahk, “Nga tiana israsr.” El topuk, “Pwaye, kom israsr.”
16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
Na mwet ah tuyak in som, ac Abraham el welulos in wilkas nu selos. Na elos som nu ke acn se ma elos ac ku in ngeti ac liye acn Sodom.
17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
Ac LEUM GOD El fahk insial sifacna, “Nga fah tia okanla nu sel Abraham ma nga akola in oru.
18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
Fwilin tulik natul ac fah orala sie mutunfacl lulap ac ku, ac nga fah akinsewowoye mutunfacl nukewa kacl.
19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the Lord, to do justice and judgment; that the Lord may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
Nga sulella ke sripen nga enenu elan ku in sapsap nu sin wen natul ac fwil nukewa tokol tuh elos in akosyu ac in oru ma pwaye ac suwohs. Elos fin akosyu, nga fah oru ma nukewa ma nga wulela tari kac nu sel.”
20 And the Lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Abraham, “Oasr tukak na koluk lain acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, ac ma koluk lalos arulana yohk.
21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
Nga enenu in oatula ac konauk lah ma tukakinyuk elos kac inge pwaye ku sutuu.”
22 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the Lord.
Na mwet luo ah tuyak som tulanya acn Sodom, tusruktu LEUM GOD El srakna oasr yorol Abraham.
23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
Abraham el kalukyang nu yurin LEUM GOD ac siyuk, “Ya pwayena kom ac kunausla mwet wangin mwata wi na mwet koluk uh?
24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
Fin oasr mwet wangin mwata lumngaul in siti uh, ya kom ac kunausla siti nufon sac? Ya kom ac tia lela in oanna ke sripen mwet lumngaul uh?
25 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
Kalem lah kom tia ku in uniya mwet wangin mwata wi mwet koluk. Ac tia ku in angan! Kom koflana oru ma sacn. Kom fin oru angan, na mwet suwohs uh ac fah kalyeiyuk oapana mwet koluk uh. Tiana ku in angan. El su nununku faclu nufon enenu na in orekma in suwohs.”
26 And the Lord said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fin konauk mwet suwoswos lumngaul in Sodom, nga fah tia kunausla siti nufon sac ke sripalos.”
27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
Abraham el sifilpa fahk, “LEUM GOD, nunak munas, tuleyula ke kuinsrim luk in kaskas nu sum. Mwet na lusrongten se pa nga uh, ac nga kupansuwol in fahk kutena ma.
28 Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
Fin mwet suwoswos na angngaul limekosr, ac tia lumngaul, ya kom ac srakna kunausla siti nufon sac mweyen mwet limekosr pueni?” LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah tia kunausla siti sac nga fin konauk mwet suwoswos angngaul limekosr.
29 And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty’s sake.
Ac Abraham el sifilpa fahk, “Ac fin mwet angngaul na?” LEUM GOD El topuk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla fin oasr mwet angngaul.”
30 And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
Abraham el fahk, “LEUM GOD, nunak munas nikmet kasrkusrak, a nga srakna ke sifilpa kaskas. Fin mwet na tolngoul? El fahk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla nga fin konauk mwet tolngoul.”
31 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty’s sake.
Abraham el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas ke nga siayuk in kusen siyuk nu sum uh. Ac fin pa mwet na longoul koneyukyak we?” El fahk, “Nga ac tia pac kunausla siti sac, nga fin konauk longoul.”
32 And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.
Abraham el fahk, “O Leum, nunak munas nikmet kasrkusrak, ma na safla se pa nge. Ac fin mwet na singoul koneyukyak?” Ac El fahk, “Nga fah tia pac kunausla fin oasr mwet singoul.”
33 And the Lord went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
Tukun el kaskas nu sel Abraham tari, LEUM GOD El som, ac Abraham el folokla nu acn sel.
