< 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.
Ergamoonni Waaqayyoo sun lamaan galgala sana Sodoom gaʼan; Looxis karra Sodoomii dura taaʼaa ture. Innis yeroo jara argetti, isaan simachuuf kaʼee isaanitti deeme; gad jedhees adda isaatiin lafatti gombifame.
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.
Innis, “Yaa gooftota ko, maaloo mana garbicha keessaniitti goraatii miilla dhiqadhaa bulaa; barii barraaqaan kaatanii karaa keessan itti fufuu dandeessu” jedhe. Isaan immoo, “Hin taʼu; nu waltajjii karaa irra bullaa” jedhaniin.
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.
Inni garuu akka malee isaan dirqisiise; kanaafuu goranii mana isaa seenan; innis maxinoo tolchee nyaata qopheesseef; isaanis ni nyaatan.
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:
Utuu isaan hin rafin namoonni kutaalee magaalaa Sodoom hunda keessaa dhufan hundi dargaggoonnii fi jaarsoliin mana sana marsan.
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.
Isaanis Looxin waamanii, “Namoonni galgala kana gara kee dhufan eessa jiru? Akka nu isaan wajjin ciifnuuf gad nuu yaasi” jedhan.
6 And Lot went out unto them, at the entrance [of the house], and shut the door after him.
Looxis jara sanatti gad baʼee balbala of duubaan cufe;
7 And he said, I pray you, my brethren, do not act wickedly.
Akkanas jedhe; “Yaa obboloota ko, waan hamaa kana hin hojjetinaa!
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.
Kunoo ani intallan lama kanneen takkumaa dhiira wajjin hin ciisin qaba. Lamaanuu gad isinii nan baasa; isinis waan feetan isaan gochuu dandeessu. Namoota kanneen garuu waan isaan bantii mana koo jala jiraniif homaa isaan hin godhinaa.”
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.
Isaanis, “Badi asii!” jedhaniin. Ittuma fufaniis, “Namichi kun nama ormaa kan nu keessa jiraachuu dhufee dha; amma immoo abbaa murtii nutti taʼuu fedha! Nu waan hamaa jara irratti hojjennu caalaa sirratti hojjenna” jedhaniin. Isaanis Looxin humnaan dhiibanii balbala sana cabsuu gaʼan.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot to them into the house, and the door they locked.
Namoonni sunis hiixatanii Looxin harkisanii manatti ol deebisan; balbalichas ni cufan.
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.
Ergasii immoo namoota balbala manaa dura turan sana akka isaan balbalicha hin argineef xinnaa fi guddaa isaanii dhaʼichaan ija jaamsan.
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.
Namoonni lamaan sun Looxiin akkana jedhan; “Ati nama biraa tokko illee jechuunis soddoota, ilmaan yookaan intallan yookaan nama kan kee taʼe tokko illee magaalaa kana keessaa qabdaa? Asi keessa isaan baafadhu;
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.
nu iddoo kana balleessuuf deemnaatii. Sababii iyyi saba ishee irratti iyyame fuula Waaqayyoo duratti guddaa taʼeef, Waaqni akka nu ishee balleessinuuf nu ergeera.”
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.
Kanaafuu Loox gad baʼee soddoota isaa warra intallan isaa fuudhuuf jiraniin, “Sababii Waaqayyo magaalaa kana balleessuuf kaʼeef, dafaatii asii baʼaa!” jedhe. Soddoonni isaa garuu waan inni qoosu seʼan.
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.
Yeroo boruun diimatetti ergamoonni Waaqayyoo sun Looxin jarjarsanii, “Niitii keetii fi intallan kee lamaan as jiran fudhadhuutii dafii baʼi! Yoo kanaa achii yeroo magaalattiin adabamtutti atis ni baddaa” jedhaniin.
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.
Inni garuu duubatti harkifate; waan Waaqayyo isaaniif garaa laafeef namoonni sun harka isaatii fi harka niitii isaa, intallan isaa lamaanis harka qabanii magaalattii keessaa isaan baasan.
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.
Akkuma gad isaan baasaniinis ergamoota sana keessaa inni tokko, “Lubbuu kee oolfachuuf baqadhu! Of duuba hin milʼatin! Dirree irra iddoo tokko illee hin dhaabatin! Tulluuwwanitti ol baqadhu; yoo kanaa achii ni baddaa!” jedhe.
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my lord!
Loox garuu akkana isaaniin jedhe; “Yaa gooftota ko, maaloo akkas miti!
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.
Kunoo garbichi kee fuula kee duratti fudhatama argateera; ati lubbuu koo oolchitee gara laafina guddaa na argisiifteerta. Ani garuu gara tulluutti ol baqachuu hin dandaʼu; balaan kun na argata; anis nan duʼa.
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.
Kunoo, magaalaan itti baqachuun dandaʼamu tokko as dhiʼoo jirti; isheen xinnoo dha. Ani gara isheetti nan baqadha; isheen baayʼee xinnoo dha mitii? Akkasitti lubbuun koo ni baraaramti.”
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.
Ergamaan sunis akkana jedheen; “Kunoo, ani kadhaa kana siif nan dhagaʼa; magaalaa ati waaʼee ishee dubbattu kana ani hin balleessu.
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.
Garuu sababii ani hamma ati achi geessutti homaa gochuu hin dandeenyeef dafii achitti baqadhu!” Wanni magaalaan sun Zoʼaar jedhamteefis kanuma.
23 The sun rose over the earth, when Lot entered into Zoar.
Yeroo Loox Zoʼaar gaʼetti aduun baatee turte.
24 And the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire, from the Lord, out of heaven;
Waaqayyo samiiwwan keessaa Waaqayyo biraa, dinyii bobaʼu Sodoomii fi Gomoraa irratti roobse.
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
Innis akkasiin magaalaawwan kanneenii fi dirreewwan sana guutuu, warra magaalaawwan sana keessa jiraatan hundaa fi biqiltuu biyya sanaa balleesse.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
Niitiin Looxi garuu of duuba ilaaltee utubaa soogiddaa taatee hafte.
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the Lord:
Abrahaamis guyyaa itti aanu ganama obboroon kaʼee iddoo duraan fuula Waaqayyoo dura dhaabachaa ture sanatti deebiʼe.
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.
Innis gara magaalaawwan Sodoomii fi Gomoraa, gara lafa dirree sanaa hundaas ilaalee aara akka aara boolla ibiddaa keessaa baʼuu tokko isaa biyya sana keessaa ol kaʼu arge.
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.
Waaqni yeroo magaalaawwan dirree sanaa balleessetti Abrahaamin yaadate; kanaafuu yommuu magaalaawwan Loox keessa jiraachaa ture balleessetti Looxin balaa sana keessaa baase.
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.
Loox waan Zoʼaar keessa jiraachuu sodaateef intallan isaa lamaan wajjin Zoʼaarii baʼee gaarran irra qubate. Innis intallan isaa lamaan wajjin holqa tokko keessa jiraate.
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:
Gaaf tokko intalli isaa isheen hangafti ishee quxisuudhaan akkana jette; “Abbaan keenya dulloomeera; akka bartee lafa hunda irra jiruutti dhiirri nu wajjin ciisu tokko iyyuu naannoo kan hin jiru.
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
Kottu mee abbaa keenya daadhii wayinii obaasnee isa wajjin ciifnaa; akkasiin sanyiin abbaa keenyaa lafa irratti akka hafu goona.”
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.
Isaanis halkan sana abbaa isaanii daadhii wayinii obaasan; intalli isheen hangafti ol seentee isa wajjin ciifte. Inni yeroo isheen ciiste yookaan yeroo isheen kaate hin beekne.
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.
Guyyaa itti aanutti intalli hangafti ishee quxisuudhaan akkana jette; “Kunoo ani eda abbaa koo wajjin ciiseera. Kottu edanas daadhii wayinii isa obaasnaa; atis ol seenii isa wajjin ciisi; akkasitti sanyiin abbaa keenyaa akka hafu goona.”
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.
Isaan halkan sanas abbaa isaanii daadhii wayinii obaasan; intalli quxisuun dhaqxee isa wajjin ciiste. Inni ammas yeroo isheen ciiste yookaan yeroo isheen kaate hin beekne.
36 And both the daughters of Lot became with child by their father.
Akkasiin intallan Loox lamaanuu abbaa isaaniitiif ulfaaʼan.
37 And the first-born bore a son, and called his name Moab; the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
Intalli isheen hangafti ilma deessee maqaa isaa Moʼaab jettee moggaafte. Inni abbaa Moʼaabota harʼaa ti.
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.
Intalli isheen quxisuunis ilma deessee maqaa isaa Ben-Amii jettee moggaafte; inni immoo abbaa Amoonota harʼaa ti.
