< Genesis 19 >

1 And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom; and when Lot saw them he rose up to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground.
فَجَاءَ ٱلْمَلَاكَانِ إِلَى سَدُومَ مَسَاءً، وَكَانَ لُوطٌ جَالِسًا فِي بَابِ سَدُومَ. فَلَمَّا رَآهُمَا لُوطٌ قَامَ لِٱسْتِقْبَالِهِمَا، وَسَجَدَ بِوَجْهِهِ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.١
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye can rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
وَقَالَ: «يَا سَيِّدَيَّ، مِيلَا إِلَى بَيْتِ عَبْدِكُمَا وَبِيتَا وَٱغْسِلَا أَرْجُلَكُمَا، ثُمَّ تُبَكِّرَانِ وَتَذْهَبَانِ فِي طَرِيقِكُمَا». فَقَالَا: «لَا، بَلْ فِي ٱلسَّاحَةِ نَبِيتُ».٢
3 And he pressed upon them greatly, and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they did eat.
فَأَلَحَّ عَلَيْهِمَا جِدًّا، فَمَالَا إِلَيْهِ وَدَخَلَا بَيْتَهُ، فَصَنَعَ لَهُمَا ضِيَافَةً وَخَبَزَ فَطِيرًا فَأَكَلَا.٣
4 But before they had lain down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
وَقَبْلَمَا ٱضْطَجَعَا أَحَاطَ بِٱلْبَيْتِ رِجَالُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، رِجَالُ سَدُومَ، مِنَ ٱلْحَدَثِ إِلَى ٱلشَّيْخِ، كُلُّ ٱلشَّعْبِ مِنْ أَقْصَاهَا.٤
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men who came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
فَنَادَوْا لُوطًا وَقَالُوا لَهُ: «أَيْنَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ ٱللَّذَانِ دَخَلَا إِلَيْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةَ؟ أَخْرِجْهُمَا إِلَيْنَا لِنَعْرِفَهُمَا».٥
6 And Lot went out unto them, at the entrance [of the house], and shut the door after him.
فَخَرَجَ إِلَيْهِمْ لُوطٌ إِلَى ٱلْبَابِ وَأَغْلَقَ ٱلْبَابَ وَرَاءَهُ٦
7 And he said, I pray you, my brethren, do not act wickedly.
وَقَالَ: «لَا تَفْعَلُوا شَرًّا يَا إِخْوَتِي.٧
8 Behold now, I have two daughters who have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes, only unto these men do nothing, since they have once come under the shadow of my roof.
هُوَذَا لِي ٱبْنَتَانِ لَمْ تَعْرِفَا رَجُلًا. أُخْرِجُهُمَا إِلَيْكُمْ فَٱفْعَلُوا بِهِمَا كَمَا يَحْسُنُ فِي عُيُونِكُمْ. وَأَمَّا هَذَانِ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ فَلَا تَفْعَلُوا بِهِمَا شَيْئًا، لِأَنَّهُمَا قَدْ دَخَلَا تَحْتَ ظِلِّ سَقْفِي».٨
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said, This one man came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge; now will we deal worse with thee than with them. And they pressed sorely upon the man Lot, and they came near to break the door.
فَقَالُوا: «ٱبْعُدْ إِلَى هُنَاكَ». ثُمَّ قَالُوا: «جَاءَ هَذَا ٱلْإِنْسَانُ لِيَتَغَرَّبَ، وَهُوَ يَحْكُمُ حُكْمًا. ٱلْآنَ نَفْعَلُ بِكَ شَرًّا أَكْثَرَ مِنْهُمَا». فَأَلَحُّوا عَلَى ٱلْرَّجُلِ لُوطٍ جِدًّا وَتَقَدَّمُوا لِيُكَسِّرُوا ٱلْبَابَ،٩
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot to them into the house, and the door they locked.
فَمَدَّ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ أَيْدِيَهُمَا وَأَدْخَلَا لُوطًا إِلَيْهِمَا إِلَى ٱلْبَيْتِ وَأَغْلَقَا ٱلْبَابَ.١٠
11 And the men that were at the entrance of the house they smote with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the entrance.
وَأَمَّا ٱلرِّجَالُ ٱلَّذِينَ عَلَى بَابِ ٱلْبَيْتِ فَضَرَبَاهُمْ بِٱلْعَمَى، مِنَ ٱلصَّغِيرِ إِلَى ٱلْكَبِيرِ، فَعَجِزُوا عَنْ أَنْ يَجِدُوا ٱلْبَابَ.١١
12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? a son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring out of this place.
وَقَالَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ لِلُوطٍ: «مَنْ لَكَ أَيْضًا هَهُنَا؟ أَصْهَارَكَ وَبَنِيكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَكُلَّ مَنْ لَكَ فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، أَخْرِجْ مِنَ ٱلْمَكَانِ،١٢
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry against them is waxed great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
لِأَنَّنَا مُهْلِكَانِ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانَ، إِذْ قَدْ عَظُمَ صُرَاخُهُمْ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ، فَأَرْسَلَنَا ٱلرَّبُّ لِنُهْلِكَهُ».١٣
14 And Lot went out and spoke unto his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, and said, Arise, get yourselves out of this place, for the Lord will destroy this city; but he seemed as one that jesteth in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
فَخَرَجَ لُوطٌ وَكَلَّمَ أَصْهَارَهُ ٱلْآخِذِينَ بَنَاتِهِ وَقَالَ: «قُومُوا ٱخْرُجُوا مِنْ هَذَا ٱلْمَكَانِ، لِأَنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ مُهْلِكٌ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ». فَكَانَ كَمَازِحٍ فِي أَعْيُنِ أَصْهَارِهِ.١٤
15 And as the morning dawn arose, the angels urged Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters that are here, lest thou be consumed for the iniquity of the city.
وَلَمَّا طَلَعَ ٱلْفَجْرُ كَانَ ٱلْمَلَاكَانِ يُعَجِّلَانِ لُوطًا قَائِلَيْنِ: «قُمْ خُذِ ٱمْرَأَتَكَ وَٱبْنَتَيْكَ ٱلْمَوْجُودَتَيْنِ لِئَلَّا تَهْلِكَ بِإِثْمِ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ».١٥
16 And while he yet lingered, the men laid hold of his hand, and of the hand of his wife, and of the hand of his two daughters, because the Lord desired to spare him; and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
وَلَمَّا تَوَانَى، أَمْسَكَ ٱلرَّجُلَانِ بِيَدِهِ وَبِيَدِ ٱمْرَأَتِهِ وَبِيَدِ ٱبْنَتَيْهِ، لِشَفَقَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَيْهِ، وَأَخْرَجَاهُ وَوَضَعَاهُ خَارِجَ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ.١٦
17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
وَكَانَ لَمَّا أَخْرَجَاهُمْ إِلَى خَارِجٍ أَنَّهُ قَالَ: «ٱهْرُبْ لِحَيَاتِكَ. لَا تَنْظُرْ إِلَى وَرَائِكَ، وَلَا تَقِفْ فِي كُلِّ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ. ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ لِئَلَّا تَهْلِكَ».١٧
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my lord!
فَقَالَ لَهُمَا لُوطٌ: «لَا يَا سَيِّدُ.١٨
19 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy eyes, and thou hast magnified thy kindness, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest the evil overtake me, and I die.
هُوَذَا عَبْدُكَ قَدْ وَجَدَ نِعْمَةً فِي عَيْنَيْكَ، وَعَظَّمْتَ لُطْفَكَ ٱلَّذِي صَنَعْتَ إِلَيَّ بِٱسْتِبْقَاءِ نَفْسِي، وَأَنَا لَا أَقْدِرُ أَنْ أَهْرُبَ إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ لَعَلَّ ٱلشَّرَّ يُدْرِكُنِي فَأَمُوتَ.١٩
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee thereunto, and it is little; oh, let me, I pray thee, escape thither, [as it is but little, ] that my life may be saved.
هُوَذَا ٱلْمَدِينَةُ هَذِهِ قَرِيبَةٌ لِلْهَرَبِ إِلَيْهَا وَهِيَ صَغِيرَةٌ. أَهْرُبُ إِلَى هُنَاكَ. أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ صَغِيرَةً؟ فَتَحْيَا نَفْسِي».٢٠
21 And he said unto him, See, I have favored thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, of which thou hast spoken.
فَقَالَ لَهُ: «إِنِّي قَدْ رَفَعْتُ وَجْهَكَ فِي هَذَا ٱلْأَمْرِ أَيْضًا، أَنْ لَا أَقْلِبَ ٱلْمَدِينَةَ ٱلَّتِي تَكَلَّمْتَ عَنْهَا.٢١
22 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou hast come thither. Therefore was the name of the city called Zoar.
أَسْرِعِ ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى هُنَاكَ لِأَنِّي لَا أَسْتَطِيعُ أَنْ أَفْعَلَ شَيْئًا حَتَّى تَجِيءَ إِلَى هُنَاكَ». لِذَلِكَ دُعِيَ ٱسْمُ ٱلْمَدِينَةِ «صُوغَرَ».٢٢
23 The sun rose over the earth, when Lot entered into Zoar.
وَإِذْ أَشْرَقَتِ ٱلشَّمْسُ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ دَخَلَ لُوطٌ إِلَى صُوغَرَ،٢٣
24 And the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire, from the Lord, out of heaven;
فَأَمْطَرَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ كِبْرِيتًا وَنَارًا مِنْ عِنْدِ ٱلرَّبِّ مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاءِ.٢٤
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
وَقَلَبَ تِلْكَ ٱلْمُدُنَ، وَكُلَّ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ، وَجَمِيعَ سُكَّانِ ٱلْمُدُنِ، وَنَبَاتِ ٱلْأَرْضِ.٢٥
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
وَنَظَرَتِ ٱمْرَأَتُهُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِ فَصَارَتْ عَمُودَ مِلْحٍ.٢٦
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the Lord:
وَبَكَّرَ إِبْرَاهِيمُ فِي ٱلْغَدِ إِلَى ٱلْمَكَانِ ٱلَّذِي وَقَفَ فِيهِ أَمَامَ ٱلرَّبِّ،٢٧
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and lo, smoke went up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.
وَتَطَلَّعَ نَحْوَ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ، وَنَحْوَ كُلِّ أَرْضِ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ، وَنَظَرَ وَإِذَا دُخَانُ ٱلْأَرْضِ يَصْعَدُ كَدُخَانِ ٱلْأَتُونِ.٢٨
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot away out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot had dwelt.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا أَخْرَبَ ٱللهُ مُدُنَ ٱلدَّائِرَةِ أَنَّ ٱللهَ ذَكَرَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ، وَأَرْسَلَ لُوطًا مِنْ وَسَطِ ٱلِٱنْقِلَابِ. حِينَ قَلَبَ ٱلْمُدُنَ ٱلَّتِي سَكَنَ فِيهَا لُوطٌ.٢٩
30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he feared to dwell in Zoar; and he dwelt in a cave, he, and his two daughters.
وَصَعِدَ لُوطٌ مِنْ صُوغَرَ وَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْجَبَلِ، وَٱبْنَتَاهُ مَعَهُ، لِأَنَّهُ خَافَ أَنْ يَسْكُنَ فِي صُوغَرَ. فَسَكَنَ فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ هُوَ وَٱبْنَتَاهُ.٣٠
31 And the first-born said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the country to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
وَقَالَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ لِلصَّغِيرَةِ: «أَبُونَا قَدْ شَاخَ، وَلَيْسَ فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ رَجُلٌ لِيَدْخُلَ عَلَيْنَا كَعَادَةِ كُلِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ.٣١
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
هَلُمَّ نَسْقِي أَبَانَا خَمْرًا وَنَضْطَجِعُ مَعَهُ، فَنُحْيِي مِنْ أَبِينَا نَسْلًا».٣٢
33 And they made their father drink wine that night; and the first-born went in, and lay with her father, and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
فَسَقَتَا أَبَاهُمَا خَمْرًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ، وَدَخَلَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ وَٱضْطَجَعَتْ مَعَ أَبِيهَا، وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِٱضْطِجَاعِهَا وَلَا بِقِيَامِهَا.٣٣
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the first-born said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father; let us make him drink wine this night also, and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
وَحَدَثَ فِي ٱلْغَدِ أَنَّ ٱلْبِكْرَ قَالَتْ لِلصَّغِيرَةِ: «إِنِّي قَدِ ٱضْطَجَعْتُ ٱلْبَارِحَةَ مَعَ أَبِي. نَسْقِيهِ خَمْرًا ٱللَّيْلَةَ أَيْضًا فَٱدْخُلِي ٱضْطَجِعِي مَعَهُ، فَنُحْيِيَ مِنْ أَبِينَا نَسْلًا».٣٤
35 And they made their father drink wine that night also; and the younger arose, and lay with him, and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
فَسَقَتَا أَبَاهُمَا خَمْرًا فِي تِلْكَ ٱللَّيْلَةِ أَيْضًا، وَقَامَتِ ٱلصَّغِيرَةُ وَٱضْطَجَعَتْ مَعَهُ، وَلَمْ يَعْلَمْ بِٱضْطِجَاعِهَا وَلَا بِقِيَامِهَا،٣٥
36 And both the daughters of Lot became with child by their father.
فَحَبِلَتِ ٱبْنَتَا لُوطٍ مِنْ أَبِيهِمَا.٣٦
37 And the first-born bore a son, and called his name Moab; the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
فَوَلَدَتِ ٱلْبِكْرُ ٱبْنًا وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «مُوآبَ»، وَهُوَ أَبُو ٱلْمُوآبِيِّينَ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ.٣٧
38 And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
وَٱلصَّغِيرَةُ أَيْضًا وَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا وَدَعَتِ ٱسْمَهُ «بِنْ عَمِّي»، وَهُوَ أَبُو بَنِي عَمُّونَ إِلَى ٱلْيَوْمِ.٣٨
