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;
Lao esa, Abraham leo deka no hau ineꞌ ra sia Mamre, LAMATUALAIN natudꞌu Ao na neu e sia naa. Dudꞌui na taꞌo ia: Faiꞌ naa, mafeoꞌ a seli, de Abraham endoꞌ haꞌi anin mia lalaat mataꞌ.
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,
Ana botiꞌ mata na ma, nita atahori telu rambariiꞌ sia naa. Boe ma, ana nelaꞌ soru se, de sendeꞌ lululangga na,
3 and he says, “My Lord, if now I have found grace in Your eyes, please do not pass on from Your servant;
nae, “Ama nggare! Mete ma bisa na, amaꞌ se tuli au lalaat ngga dei. Onaꞌ mae minu akaꞌ a oe hieꞌ o, malole.
4 please let a little water be accepted, and wash Your feet, and recline under the tree;
Amaꞌ se hahae sia hau mafoꞌ ia, dei fo au denu ana kara haꞌi oe fo safe ei mara.
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.”
Ma au uu sadꞌia nanaat fee amaꞌ se, fo maꞌadere baliꞌ, fo feꞌe lao mikindoo na. Au umuhoꞌo bisa uhao amaꞌ se.” Ara rataa rae, “Malole. Makasi. Hai tuli.”
6 And Abraham hurries toward the tent, to Sarah, and says, “Hurry three measures of flour-meal, knead, and make cakes”;
Abraham nelaꞌ nisiꞌ lalaat, de nafadꞌe Sara nae, “Lailai! Haꞌi mala tarigu maloleꞌ sak esa, fo tao roti.”
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;
Basa ma nelaꞌ nisiꞌ sapi nara, de paꞌa nala sapi ana mbarunaꞌ esa, ma denu ate na tati, de tunu-nasu e.
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.
Boe ma ana neu haꞌi susu, keju, ma sisi naa, de nendi fee fuiꞌ ra. Ara raa ma, ana nambariiꞌ sia hau huu na, de mete-seꞌu se.
9 And they say to him, “Where [is] Sarah your wife?” And he says, “Behold—in the tent”;
Boe ma ara ratane rae, “Abraham! Sao ma Sara, sia bee? Ana nataa nae, “Sia lalaat rala.”
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;
Boe ma esa mia teluꞌ se olaꞌ nae, “To mana nemaꞌ ia, Au baliꞌ. Leleꞌ naa, sao ma Sara bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa ena.” Ara olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, Sara rena mia lelesu a seriꞌ.
11 and Abraham and Sarah [are] aged, entering into days—the way of women has ceased to be to Sarah;
Leleꞌ naa, Abraham no Sara lasiꞌ ena, ma Sara o nda afiꞌ hambu fula na sa ena.
12 and Sarah laughs in her heart, saying, “After I have waxed old have I had pleasure? My lord [is] also old!”
Ana rena ara olaꞌ taꞌo naa ma, ana mali sia rala na, ma duꞌa nae, “Awe! Umulasi helaꞌ a rui ngga onaꞌ ia, ma sao ngga o mana masaloeꞌ ena. Naa taꞌo bee hai feꞌe hii dadꞌi masao feuꞌ, fo sangga anaꞌ fai?”
13 And YHWH says to Abraham, “Why [is] this? Sarah has laughed, saying, Is it really true—I bear—and I am aged?
Basa de LAMATUALAIN natane Abraham nae, “Taꞌo bee de Sara mali? Ana duꞌa nae saa fo Au olaꞌ ia, nda dadꞌi sa, huu eni lasiꞌ ena, do?
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.”
Au ia, LAMATUALAIN! Nda hambu saa fo Au nda tao alaꞌ sa! Misinedꞌa malolole, e! Mete ma Au baliꞌ too mana nemaꞌ ia, Sara bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa ena.”
15 And Sarah denies, saying, “I did not laugh”; for she has been afraid; and He says, “No, but you did laugh.”
Sara rena taꞌo naa ma, namatau. De ana nafanii nae, “Au nda mali sa ma!” Te Lamatualain nataa nae, “Ho mali tebꞌe ma!”
16 And the men rise from there, and look on the face of Sodom, and Abraham is going with them to send them away;
Basa ma, fuiꞌ ka teluꞌ ra rae risiꞌ kamboꞌ Sodꞌom, de Abraham no se losa dalaꞌ taladꞌa na. Mia naa, ara bisa rita Sodꞌom.
17 and YHWH said, “Am I concealing from Abraham that which I am doing,
Basa ma LAMATUALAIN duꞌa sia rala na nae, “Au ae tao ulutu kambo Sodꞌom, te malole lenaꞌ, Au dui Abraham,
18 and Abraham certainly becomes a great and mighty nation, and blessed in him have been all nations of the earth?
huu tititi-nonosi nara boe ramaheta, ma dadꞌi leo manaseliꞌ. Ma ana o dadꞌi papala-babꞌanggiꞌ soaꞌ neu basa leo sia raefafoꞌ a.
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.”
Au here ala e, fo nanori ana nara ro atahori feaꞌ ra, fo tungga rakandoo LAMATUALAIN dala Na ma rasodꞌa no ndoo-tetuꞌ. Mete ma ara tao taꞌo naa, Au tao utetu hehelu-fufuli Ngga o Abraham.”
20 And YHWH says, “The cry of Sodom and Gomorrah—because great; and their sin—because exceedingly grievous:
Boe ma LAMATUALAIN nafadꞌe Abraham nae, “Taꞌo ia! Au rena atahori ra fale rala nara, huu atahori kambo Sodꞌom no Gomora deꞌulaka nara, seli tebꞌe ena.
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”;
Naa de, Au onda, fo ita no mata Ngga, basa saa fo Au renaꞌ a, tebꞌe, do, hokoꞌ. Mete ma hokoꞌ, Au musi bubꞌuluꞌ.”
22 and the men turn from there, and go toward Sodom; and Abraham is yet standing before YHWH.
LAMATUALAIN feꞌe olaꞌ no Abraham ma, fuiꞌ ka ruaꞌ ra laoꞌ rakandoo risiꞌ Sodꞌom.
23 And Abraham draws near and says, “Do You also consume righteous with wicked?
Abraham neu deka-deka no Lamatualain, de kokoe nae, “Taꞌo bee? Amaꞌ nae tao nalutu atahori maloleꞌ ro atahori deꞌulakaꞌ lao esaꞌ, do?
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?
Mete ma hambu atahori maloleꞌ lima nulu sia kamboꞌ naa, Amaꞌ feꞌe mae tao mulutu basa atahori ra, do? Do, Amaꞌ nda tao mulutu kamboꞌ naa sa, huu sira?
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?”
Amaꞌ afiꞌ tao taꞌo naa! Afiꞌ losa atahori maloleꞌ ra o mate boe, huu Amaꞌ nae nalutu atahori deꞌulakaꞌ ra. Amaꞌ dadꞌi mana maꞌetuꞌ sia lalai no raefafoꞌ ia. Amaꞌ o bubꞌuluꞌ naa nda matetuꞌ sa.”
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.”
LAMATUALAIN nataa nae, “Mete ma Au hambu atahori maloleꞌ lima nulu sia Sodꞌom, Au nda hukun kamboꞌ naa sa, huu sira.”
27 And Abraham answers and says, “Now behold, I have willed to speak to the Lord, and I [am] dust and ashes;
Boe ma Abraham olaꞌ seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ, oꞌe ambon, au ae olaꞌ mbei fai. Au ia, atahori nggoaꞌ, nda uhine saa-saa saꞌ boe.
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.”
Onaꞌ nda hambu atahori maloleꞌ losa lima nulu sa, te akaꞌ a haa nulu lima, naa taꞌo bee? Mete ma kuran atahori lima, naa Amaꞌ feꞌe mae tao mulutu kamboꞌ naa, do?” Lamatualain nataa nae, “Mete ma Au hambu atahori maloleꞌ haa nulu lima sia naa, Au nda tao ulutu e sa.”
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.”
Abraham feꞌe kokoe seluꞌ nae, “Mete ma hambu akaꞌ a atahori haa nulu, naa taꞌo bee, Amaꞌ?” Nataa nae, “Mete ma hambu atahori haa nulu, Au nda hukun se sa.”
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.”
Abraham kokoe nakandooꞌ a nae, “Amaꞌ afiꞌ mumunasa, te mete ma akaꞌ a atahori maloleꞌ telu nulu a, naa taꞌo bee?” Nataa nae, “Mete ma hambu telu nulu, Au nda hukun se sa.”
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.”
Basa ma Abraham naloe seluꞌ nae, “Amaꞌ afiꞌ mumunasa, te au utane seluꞌ mbei fai. Mete ma akaꞌ a atahori rua nulu, naa taꞌo bee?” Nataa nae, “Mete ma hambu atahori rua nulu, Au nda tao ulutu kamboꞌ naa sa.”
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.”
Boe ma Abraham tatana oꞌola na nae, “Amaꞌ! Au olaꞌ lao esa fai, te afiꞌ mumunasa au, o! Mete ma akaꞌ a atahori maloleꞌ sanahulu a, naa taꞌo bee?” Nataa nae, “Mete ma hambu atahori maloleꞌ sanahulu sia naa, Au nda tao ulutu kamboꞌ naa sa.”
33 And YHWH goes on, when He has finished speaking to Abraham, and Abraham has turned back to his place.
LAMATUALAIN olaꞌ basa ma, Ana lao nakandoo. Boe ma, Abraham baliꞌ.
