< Genesis 19 >

1 And the two angels came to Sodom at evening. And Lot sat by the gate of Sodom, and Lot having seen them, rose up to meet them, and he worshipped with his face to the ground, and said,
Ba-anjelu oyo mibale bakomaki na Sodome na pokwa. Wana Loti avandaki na ekuke, amonaki bango, akendeki koyamba bango mpe afukamaki elongi kino na mabele.
2 Behold! [my] lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and rest from your journey, and wash your feet, and having risen early in the morning you shall depart on your journey. And they said, Nay, but we will lodge in the street.
Alobaki na bango: — Nabondeli bino, bankolo na ngai, boya na ndako ya mosali na bino. Bokoki kosukola kuna makolo na bino mpe kolekisa butu, bongo na tongo, bokoki kokoba mobembo na bino. Bazongiselaki ye: — Te, tokolala kaka libanda.
3 And he constrained them, and they turned aside to him, and they entered into his house, and he made a feast for them, and baked unleavened cakes for them, and they did eat.
Kasi Loti abondelaki bango mingi; boye bandimaki kokende na ye elongo mpe bakotaki na ndako na ye. Alambelaki bango bilei ya kitoko, atumbaki mapa ezanga levire mpe baliaki.
4 But before they went to sleep, the men of the city, the Sodomites, compassed the house, both young and old, all the people together.
Liboso ete bakende kolala, mibali nyonso ya engumba Sodome, bilenge mpe mibange, bawutaki bipai na bipai mpe bayaki kozingela ndako.
5 And they called out Lot, and said to him, Where are the men that went in to you this night? bring them out to us that we may be with them.
Babelelaki Loti: — Wapi mibali oyo bayaki epai na yo na butu oyo? Bimisela biso bango mpo ete tosangisa na bango nzoto.
6 And Lot went out to them to the porch, and he shut the door after him,
Loti abimaki mpo na kosolola na bango; akangaki ekuke sima na ye.
7 and said to them, By no means, brethren, do not act villanously.
Alobaki: — Te, baninga na ngai, bosala mabe te!
8 But I have two daughters, who have not known a man. I will bring them out to you, and do you use them as it may please you, only do not injury to these men, to avoid which they came under the shelter of my roof.
Boyoka! Nazali na bana basi mibale oyo bayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te. Tika ete namemela bino bango libanda! Bosala bango nyonso oyo bolingi. Kasi bosala bato oyo eloko moko te mpo ete bayei kovanda na ndako na ngai.
9 And they said to him, Stand back there, you came in to sojourn, was it also to judge? Now then we would harm you more than them. And they pressed hard on the man, even Lot, and they drew near to break the door.
Bazongisaki: — Longwa wana. Balobaki lisusu: — Botala moto oyo, ayaki awa lokola mopaya; sik’oyo alingi komikomisa mosambisi. Tokosala yo mabe koleka bango. Bongo batindikaki Loti na makasi mpe bapusanaki pene ya ekuke mpo na koluka kobuka yango.
10 And the men stretched forth their hands and drew Lot in to them into the house, and shut the door of the house.
Kasi mibali oyo bazalaki kati na ndako babimisaki maboko mpe babendaki Loti na kati ya ndako mpe bakangaki ekuke.
11 And they struck the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, and they were wearied with seeking the door.
Bakangaki miso ya bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na ekuke ya ndako, ezala bilenge to mibange; boye bazalaki lisusu komona ekuke te.
12 And the men said to Lot, Hast you here sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or if you have any other friend in the city, bring them out of this place.
Mibali yango mibale balobaki na Loti: — Ozali lisusu na moto mosusu na engumba oyo, ndakisa: mibali ya bana na yo ya basi, bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi to mpe ndeko mosusu? Bimisa bango libanda ya esika oyo
13 For we are going to destroy this place; for their cry has been raised up before the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it.
mpo ete tolingi kobebisa yango. Sango ya makambo mabe ya bato oyo ekomi kino epai na Yawe; yango wana Yawe atindi biso mpo na kobebisa engumba oyo.
14 And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law who had married his daughters, and said, Rise up, and depart out of this place, for the Lord is about to destroy the city; but he seemed to be speaking absurdly before his sons-in-law.
Boye Loti abimaki mpe akendeki koyebisa babandami ya mabala ya bana na ye ya basi. Alobaki: « Bosala noki mpe bobima na esika oyo, pamba te Yawe alingi kobebisa engumba oyo! » Kasi babandami ya mabala ya bana na ye ya basi bakanisaki ete azali kosala maseki.
15 But when it was morning, the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise and take your wife, and your two daughters whom you have, and go forth; lest you also be destroyed with the iniquities of the city.
Tango kaka tongo etanaki, ba-anjelu batungisaki Loti mpe balobaki: — Sala noki, kamata mwasi na yo mpe bana na yo mibale ya basi oyo bazali awa; soki te, bokobebisama tango engumba oyo ekozwa etumbu.
16 And they were troubled, and the angels laid hold on his hand, and the hand of his wife, and the hands of his two daughters, in that the Lord spared him.
Lokola azalaki kowumela, mibali yango bakangaki na makasi loboko na ye, maboko ya mwasi mpe ya bana na ye ya basi; mpe bamemaki bango na libanda ya engumba, pamba te Yawe ayokelaki bango mawa.
17 And it came to pass when they brought them out, that they said, Save your own life by all means; look not round to that which is behind, nor stay in all the country round about, escape to the mountain, lest perhaps you be overtaken together with them.
Tango kaka babimisaki bango na libanda, moko kati na mibali yango alobaki: — Bokima mpo ete bobikisa bomoi na bino! Botala sima te mpe botelema ata esika moko te kati na engumba oyo! Bokima na likolo ya bangomba, noki te bokobebisama!
18 And Lot said to them, I pray, Lord,
Kasi Loti azongisaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai, tika ete esalema bongo te!
19 since your servant has found mercy before you, and you have magnified your righteousness, in what you do towards me that my soul may live, —but I shall not be able to escape to the mountain, lest perhaps the calamity overtake me and I die.
Mosali na yo azwi ngolu na miso na yo, mpe otalisi ngai bolamu makasi na ndenge obikisi bomoi na ngai. Kasi nakokoka te kokima na likolo ya bangomba, noki te likama ekokomela ngai mpe nakokufa.
20 Behold this city is near for me to escape there, which is a small one, and there shall I be preserved, is it not little? and my soul shall live because of you.
Tala, ezali na engumba moko pene awa mpo na kokimela, yango ezali penza moke. Tika ngai nakimela kuna atako ezali moke mpo ete nabikisa bomoi na ngai!
21 And he said to him, Behold, I have had respect to you also about this thing, that I should not overthrow the city about which you have spoken.
Anjelu alobaki na ye: — Malamu mingi, nakokokisela yo lisusu bosenga oyo. Nakobebisa te engumba oyo ozali kolobela.
22 Hasten therefore to escape there, for I shall not be able to do anything until you are come there; therefore he called the name of that city, Segor.
Kasi kima noki, pamba te nakoki kosala eloko moko te soki okomi nanu kuna te. Yango wana babengaka engumba yango Tsoari.
23 The sun was risen upon the earth, when Lot entered into Segor.
Loti akomaki na Tsoari tango tongo etanaki.
24 And the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.
Boye wuta na likolo, Yawe anokisaki mvula ya moto makasi ya fofolo, na sodome mpe na Gomore.
25 And he overthrew these cities, and all the country round about, and all that lived in the cities, and the plants springing out of the ground.
Abebisaki bingumba yango, etando nyonso elongo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna mpe banzete nyonso.
26 And his wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.
Kasi mwasi ya Loti atalaki na sima mpe akomaki ekeko ya mungwa.
27 And Abraam rose up early to go to the place, where he had stood before the Lord.
Na tongo makasi, Abrayami amataki na esika oyo atelemaki liboso ya Yawe;
28 And he looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and towards the surrounding country, and saw, and behold a flame went up from the earth, as the smoke of a furnace.
atalaki na ngambo ya Sodome mpe ya Gomore, mpe na ngambo ya mokili ya etando; amonaki molinga makasi komata wuta na mokili lokola molinga ya fulu monene ya moto.
29 And it came to pass that when God destroyed all the cities of the region round about, God remembered Abraam, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when the Lord overthrew those cities in which Lot lived.
Boye, tango Nzambe abebisaki bingumba ya etando, akanisaki Abrayami mpe abikisaki Loti na likama oyo atindelaki bingumba epai wapi Loti azalaki kovanda.
30 And Lot went up out of Segor, and lived in the mountain, he and his two daughters with him, for he feared to dwell in Segor; and he lived in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
Loti mpe bana na ye mibale ya basi babimaki na Tsoari, bakendeki kovanda na bangomba, pamba te azalaki kobanga kotikala kuna. Ye elongo na bana na ye mibale ya basi bakendeki kovanda kati na lidusu ya libanga.
31 And the elder said to the younger, Our father is old, and there is no one on the earth who shall come in to us, as it is fit in all the earth.
Mokolo moko, kulutu alobaki na leki na ye: « Tata na biso akomi mobange, mpe na etuka oyo, mobali oyo akosangisa na biso nzoto ndenge esalemaka na mokili mobimba, azali te.
32 Come and let us make our father drink wine, and let us sleep with him, and let us raise up seed from our father.
Tika ete tomelisa tata na biso masanga ya vino mpe tosangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete, na nzela ya tata na biso, libota na biso ebunga te. »
33 So they made their father drink wine in that night, and the elder went in and lay with her father that night, and he knew not when he slept and when he rose up.
Na butu wana, bazwaki masanga ya vino mpe bamelisaki tata na bango. Boye kulutu akendeki mpe asangisaki nzoto na tata na ye, mpe tata na ye atikalaki koyeba likambo yango te, ezala tango mwana na ye ya mwasi akendeki epai na ye to tango alongwaki.
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the elder said to the younger, Behold, I slept yesternight with our father, let us make him drink wine in this night also, and do you go in and sleep with him, and let us raise up seed of our father.
Mokolo oyo elandaki, kulutu alobaki na leki: « Na butu oyo ewuti koleka, nasangisaki nzoto na tata na ngai. Tika ete topesa ye lisusu masanga ya vino na butu ya lelo, mpe yo okokende kosangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete, na nzela ya tata na biso, libota na biso ebunga te. »
35 So they made their father drink wine in that night also, and the younger went in and slept with her father, and he knew not when he slept, nor when he arose.
Na butu wana lisusu, bazwaki masanga ya vino mpe bamelisaki tata na bango; bongo leki akendeki mpe asangisaki nzoto na tata na ye. Tata na ye atikalaki kaka koyeba likambo yango te, ezala tango mwana na ye ya mwasi akendeki epai na ye to tango alongwaki.
36 And the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.
Boye bana basi oyo mibale ya Loti bakomaki na zemi ya tata na bango.
37 And the elder bore a son and called his name Moab, saying, [He is] of my father. This is the father of the Moabites to this present day.
Kulutu abotaki mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Moabi; » azali tata ya ekolo ya Moabi, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
38 And the younger also bore a son, and called his name Amman, saying, The son of my family. This is the father of the Ammanites to this present day.
Leki mpe abotaki lisusu mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Beni-Ami; » azali tata ya ekolo ya Amoni, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
