Genesis 18
1 And YHWH appears to him among the oaks of Mamre, and he is sitting at the opening of the tent, about the heat of the day;
Ary Jehovah niseho tamin’ i Abrahama teo an-kazo terebintan’ i Mamre; ary nipetraka teo am-baravaran’ ny lainy izy, raha nafana ny andro;
2 and he lifts up his eyes and looks, and behold, three men standing by him, and he sees, and runs to meet them from the opening of the tent, and bows himself toward the earth,
dia nanopy ny masony izy ka niery, ary, indreo, nisy telo lahy nijanona teo tandrifiny, ka nony nahita ireo izy, dia niala teo am-baravaran’ ny lainy ka nihazakazaka hitsena azy, dia niankohoka tamin’ ny tany
3 and he says, “My Lord, if now I have found grace in Your eyes, please do not pass on from Your servant;
ka nanao hoe: Tompo ô, raha mahita fitia eto imasonao aho, masìna ianao, aza dia mandalo ny mpanomponao.
4 please let a little water be accepted, and wash Your feet, and recline under the tree;
Aoka hangalana rano kely ianareo hanasana ny tongotrareo; ary aoka mba hiala sasatra kely eo am-pototry ny hazo ianareo;
5 and I bring a piece of bread, and support Your heart; afterward pass on, for therefore You have passed over to Your servant”; and they say, “So may you do as you have spoken.”
dia haka mofo kely aho hataonareo ody am-bavafo; ary rehefa afaka izany, dia handeha ihany ianareo; fa tonga atỳ amin’ ny mpanomponareo ianareo. Ary hoy izy telo lahy: Ataovy ihany araka izay nolazainao.
6 And Abraham hurries toward the tent, to Sarah, and says, “Hurry three measures of flour-meal, knead, and make cakes”;
Dia nandeha faingana Abrahama nankany an-day tany amin’ i Saraha ka nanao hoe: Faingana, makà koba tsara toto intelon’ ny famarana; dia fetafetao ka ataovy mofo.
7 and Abraham ran to the herd, and takes a son of the herd, tender and good, and gives to the young man, and he hurries to prepare it;
Ary Abrahama kosa nihazakazaka nankany amin’ ny omby, dia naka zanak’ omby tanora sady tsara ka nanolotra azy tamin’ ny ankizilahy, dia lasa faingana izy hamboatra azy.
8 and he takes butter and milk, and the son of the herd which he has prepared, and sets before them; and he is standing by them under the tree, and they eat.
Ary Abrahama naka ronono mandry sy ronono ary ilay zanak’ omby efa namboariny, dia narosony teo anoloan’ izy telo lahy; ary nijanona teo anilany teo ambanin’ ny hazo izy, dia nihinana izy telo lahy.
9 And they say to him, “Where [is] Sarah your wife?” And he says, “Behold—in the tent”;
Ary hoy izy telo lahy tamin’ i Abrahama: Aiza Saraha vadinao? Ary hoy kosa izy: Indro, ao an-day izy.
10 and He says, “Returning I return to you, about the time of life, and behold, to Sarah your wife a son.” And Sarah is listening at the opening of the tent, which is behind him;
Ary hoy Izy: Hiverina aminao tokoa Aho raha avy ny taona toy izao; ary, indro hanana zazalahy Saraha vadinao. Ary Saraha nandre izany teo am-baravaran’ ny lay, izay teo ivohon’ Ilay niteny.
11 and Abraham and Sarah [are] aged, entering into days—the way of women has ceased to be to Sarah;
Ary Abrahama sy Saraha dia samy efa zoki-olona ka nandroso fahanterana, ary efa nitsahatra tamin’ ny fombam-behivavy Saraha.
12 and Sarah laughs in her heart, saying, “After I have waxed old have I had pleasure? My lord [is] also old!”
Ary Saraha dia nihomehy anakampo ka nanao hoe: Moa mbola hanana hafaliana ihany va aho rehefa tratrantitra toy izao, sady efa antitra koa itompokolahy?
13 And YHWH says to Abraham, “Why [is] this? Sarah has laughed, saying, Is it really true—I bear—and I am aged?
Ary hoy Jehovah tamin’ i Abrahama: Nahoana no nihomehy Saraha ka nanao hoe: Hiteraka tokoa va aho, kanefa izao efa antitra izao?
14 Is anything too wonderful for YHWH? At the appointed time I return to you, about the time of life, and Sarah has a son.”
Fa moa misy zavatra mahagaga izay tsy hain’ i Jehovah va? Amin’ ny fotoan’ andro raha avy ny taona toy izao dia hiverina aminao Aho, ary Saraha hanana zazalahy.
15 And Sarah denies, saying, “I did not laugh”; for she has been afraid; and He says, “No, but you did laugh.”
Dia nandà Saraha satria natahotra izy, ka nanao hoe: Tsy nihomehy aho tsy akory. Fa hoy Ilay niteny: Tsia; fa nihomehy mihitsy ianao.
16 And the men rise from there, and look on the face of Sodom, and Abraham is going with them to send them away;
Dia nitsangana ireny lehilahy ireny ka niala teo, dia nitsinjo an’ i Sodoma; ary Abrahama niaraka taminy hanatitra azy.
17 and YHWH said, “Am I concealing from Abraham that which I am doing,
Ary Jehovah nanao hoe: Hafeniko amin’ i Abrahama va izay hataoko?
18 and Abraham certainly becomes a great and mighty nation, and blessed in him have been all nations of the earth?
Fa Abrahama ho tonga firenena lehibe sy mahery tokoa, ary aminy no hitahiana ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany.
19 For I have known him, that he commands his children, and his house after him (and they have kept the way of YHWH), to do righteousness and judgment, that YHWH may bring on Abraham that which He has spoken concerning him.”
Fa efa nifidy azy Aho mba handidy ny zanany sy ny taranany mandimby azy hitandreman’ ireo ny lalàn’ i Jehovah hanao izay marina sy mahitsy, mba hitondran’ i Jehovah amin’ i Abrahama izay efa nolazainy taminy.
20 And YHWH says, “The cry of Sodom and Gomorrah—because great; and their sin—because exceedingly grievous:
Ary hoy Jehovah: Ny fitarainan’ i Sodoma sy Gomora dia lehibe tokoa, ary ny fahotany dia mavesatra indrindra;
21 I go down now, and see whether according to its cry which is coming to Me they have done completely—and if not—I know”;
hidina Aho ka hizaha na efa nahatanteraka izany tokoa izy araka ny fitarainan’ ny tany, izay efa tonga atỳ amiko, na tsia; ary raha tsy izany, dia ho fantatro.
22 and the men turn from there, and go toward Sodom; and Abraham is yet standing before YHWH.
Dia nihodina niala teo ireo lehilahy ireo ka nandroso ho any Sodoma; fa Abrahama kosa mbola nijanona teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah.
23 And Abraham draws near and says, “Do You also consume righteous with wicked?
Dia nanatona Abrahama ka nanao hoe: Haringanao miaraka amin’ ny meloka va ny marina?
24 Perhaps there are fifty righteous in the midst of the city; do You also consume, and not bear with the place for the sake of the fifty righteous who [are] in its midst?
Angamba misy olo-marina dimam-polo ao an-tanàna; haringanao koa va, ka tsy hamindranao fo ny tanàna noho ny dimam-polo marina izay ao?
25 Far be it from You to do according to this thing, to put to death the righteous with the wicked; that it has been—as the righteous so the wicked—far be it from You; does the Judge of all the earth not do justice?”
Sanatria Anao raha hanao toy izany ka hamono ny marina miaraka amin’ ny meloka, ka ny marina hatao tahaka ny meloka; sanatria Anao izany! tsy hitsara marina va ny Mpitsara ny tany rehetra?
26 And YHWH says, “If I find in Sodom fifty righteous in the midst of the city, then have I borne with all the place for their sake.”
Ary hoy Jehovah: Raha mahita dimam-polo marina ao an-tanàna Sodoma Aho, dia hamindrako fo ny tanàna rehetra noho ireny.
27 And Abraham answers and says, “Now behold, I have willed to speak to the Lord, and I [am] dust and ashes;
Dia namaly Abrahama ka nanao hoe: Indro, fa efa sahy niteny tamin’ ny Tompo aho nefa vovoka sy lavenona:
28 perhaps there are lacking five of the fifty righteous—do You destroy for five the whole of the city?” And He says, “I do not destroy [it], if I find there forty-five.”
Angamba ho latsaka dimy ny dimam-polo marina; moa haringanao va ny tanàna rehetra noho ny dimy? Ary hoy Izy: Tsy handringana Aho, raha mahita dimy amby efa-polo ao.
29 And he adds again to speak to Him and says, “Perhaps there are found there forty?” And He says, “I do not do [it], because of the forty.”
Dia, mbola niteny taminy indray izy ka nanao hoe: Angamba efa-polo no ho hita ao. Ary hoy Izy: Tsy mba hanao izany Aho noho ny efa-polo.
30 And he says, “Please let it not be displeasing to the Lord, and I speak: perhaps there are found there thirty?” And He says, “I do not do [it], if I find there thirty.”
Ary hoy izy: Aoka anie mba tsy ho tezitra ny Tompo, fa mbola hiteny aho: Angamba telo-polo no ho hita ao. Ary hoy Izy: Tsy mba hanao izany Aho, raha mahita telo-polo ao.
31 And he says, “Now behold, I have willed to speak to the Lord: perhaps there are found there twenty?” And He says, “I do not destroy [it], because of the twenty.”
Ary hoy izy: Indro, fa efa sahy niteny tamin’ ny Tompo aho: Angamba roa-polo no ho hita ao. Ary hoy Izy: Tsy mba handringana azy Aho noho ny roa-polo.
32 And he says, “Please let it not be displeasing to the Lord, and I speak only this time: perhaps there are found there ten?” And He says, “I do not destroy [it], because of the ten.”
Ary hoy izy: Aoka anie mba tsy ho tezitra Hianao, Tompo, fa hiteny izao indray mandeha izao ihany aho: Angamba folo no ho hita ao. Ary hoy Izy: Tsy mba handringana Aho noho ny folo.
33 And YHWH goes on, when He has finished speaking to Abraham, and Abraham has turned back to his place.
Dia lasa nandeha Jehovah, rehefa vita ny teny nataony tamin’ i Abrahama; ary Abrahama niverina ho any amin’ ny fonenany.
