Genesis 19
1 The two angels came to Sodom at evening. Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. He bowed himself with his face to the earth,
Kalvantami kahni touh tangmin lah Sodom kho a tho roi. Lot teh khopui thung kâennae longkha koe a tahung teh, Lot ni ahnimouh roi a hmu navah dawn hanelah a thaw teh, talai dawk a tabo.
2 and he said, "See now, my lords, please turn aside into your servant's house, and stay all night, and wash your feet, then you may rise up early, and go on your way." They said, "No, but we will stay in the street all night."
Ahni ni ka bawipa roi, pahren lahoi na sanpa im kâen roi nateh roe rawi ei. Na khok hai pâsu roi ei telah atipouh. Ahnimouh roi ni telah nahoeh, alawilah ka roe roi han doeh atipouh.
3 But he urged them so strongly that they came in with him, and entered into his house. He made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
Hatei, puenghoi a pasawt dawkvah, ahni koe a cei roi teh, im thung a kâen roi. Hahoi, tonphuenhoehe vaiyei a poe teh a ca roi.
4 But before they could lie down to sleep, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.
Ahnimanaw a i awh hoehnahlan vah, Sodom kho e tongpa camo matawng abuemlah a tho awh teh, im khik a kalup awh.
5 They called to Lot, and said to him, "Where are the men who came in to you this night? Bring them out to us, that we may have sex with them."
Lot a kaw awh teh, tapa tangmin lah na im ka tho e tami roi namaw ao. Hote tami roi ikhai hanelah ka ngai awh, alawilah tâcawt sak telah atipouh awh.
6 Lot went out to them at the entrance, and shut the door behind him.
Lot teh takhang koehoi alawilah ahnimouh koe a tâco teh, tho a khan hnukkhu,
7 He said, "Please, my brothers, do not act so wickedly.
ka hmaunawnghanaw pahren lahoi thoenae sak awh hanh.
8 Look, I have two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them what seems good to you. Only do not do anything to these men, because they have come under the protection of my roof."
Khenhaw! tongpa ka panuek hoeh rae ka canu kahni touh ka tawn. Na ngai patetlah na ti thai awh. Hatdawkvah, pahren lahoi ahnimouh roi nangmouh koe ka tâco sak han. Imyin roi koe teh banghai sak awh hanh.
9 They said, "Stand back." They said, "This one fellow came in to live as a foreigner, and he appoints himself a judge. Now will we deal worse with you, than with them." They pressed hard on the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.
Ahnimanaw ni, kâhnawnh telah atipouh awh. Hahoi nang teh imyin lah na o eiteh, lawkcengkung lah o hanelah na kâcai. Hatdawkvah, ahnimanaw koe ka sak awh e hlak nang koe hoe kathout lah ka sak awh han telah atipouh awh. Hahoi Lot hah rek a savek awh teh, tho hai peng raphoe hanelah a tho awh.
10 But the men reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.
Hatei, ahnimouh roi ni a kut hoi imthung lah Lot hah a sawn roi teh, tho khik a khan sin roi.
11 They struck the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they were unable to find the door.
Tho teng kaawm e tami kathoeng kalen abuemlahoi a mit a dawn sak teh, tho hmawt thai awh hoeh.
12 The men said to Lot, "Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whoever you have in the city, bring them out of the place:
Ahnimouh roi ni Lot koevah, hivah nang hoi na kâkuen e tami ao rah maw. Na langa, capanaw, canunaw, hoehpawiteh, khothung kaawm e tâcawtkhai leih.
13 for we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before God that he has sent us to destroy it."
Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA hmalah a hramki awh teh, a tarannae a len poung toe. Hatdawkvah, hie hmuen raphoe hanelah BAWIPA ni na patoun roi e doeh telah atipouh.
14 Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters, and said, "Get up. Get out of this place, for God will destroy the city." But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be joking.
Lot a tâco teh, a canu ka lat e a cavanaw koevah, thaw awh leih. Hete hmuen heh tâcawt takhai awh leih. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni khopui a raphoe han toe atipouh. Hatei, a cavanaw ni panuilai lah a pouk awh.
15 When the morning came, then the angels hurried Lot along, saying, "Get up. Take your wife, and your two daughters who are here, and get out, lest you be swept away in the punishment of the city."
Amom kho vumpava a dai navah, kalvantami roi ni, thaw leih, na yu hoi na canu roi tâcawtkhai leih, nahoeh pawiteh, hete kho reknae na khang payon vaih telah ngangngang a cangawt.
16 But he hesitated, so the men grabbed his hand, his wife's hand, and his two daughters' hands, God being merciful to him; and they took him out, and set him outside of the city.
Hatei, a hnanthoe dawkvah, kalvantami roi ni, ama hoi a yu, a canu roi hoi a kut dawk hoi a sawn teh, khopui alawilah a tâcokhai. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni a pahren dawk doeh.
17 It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, "Escape for your life. Do not look behind you, and do not stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, or you will be swept away."
Alawilah, a tâcokhai awh hnukkhu, na hringnae a hlout thai nahanlah yawng leih. Hnuklah kamlang laihoi khen hanh. Tanghling koe khoeroe awm hanh. Mon vah yawng leih. Nahoeh pawiteh na due han telah atipouh.
18 Lot said to them, "Oh, not so, my lord.
Lot ni ahnimouh roi koe, telah nahoeh, ka bawipa roi.
19 See now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have magnified your loving kindness, which you have shown to me in saving my life. I can't escape to the mountain, lest the disaster overtake me, and I die.
Na sanpa ni na mithmu vah minhmai kahawi ka hmu toe. Ka hringnae na hlout sak teh, kai dawk lungpatawnae kalen poung na kamnue sak toe. Hatei, mon lah teh ka yawng thai mahoeh. Telah nahoeh pawiteh, runae ni na kei vaiteh, kadout han doeh.
20 See now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Let me escape there--isn't it a little one?--and my life will be saved."
Khenhaw! hote kho teh yawng nahane a hnaica. Kho kathoungcalah hai ao. Hote kho kathoengca koe na yawng sak haw. Ka hring han doeh telah atipouh.
21 He said to him, "Look, I have granted your request concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken.
Ahnimouh roi ni na kâhei e patetlah lung na kuep khai toe. Na dei e kho teh ka raphoe mahoeh.
22 Hurry, escape there, for I can't do anything until you get there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
Karanglah hawvah yawng leih. Hote kho dawk na pha hoehnahlan bang hno hai ka sak thai mahoeh atipouh. Hatdawkvah, hote kho teh Zoar telah min a phung.
23 The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.
Zoar kho dawk Lot a kâen navah talai van kanî teh a tâconae toe.
24 Then God rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulfur and fire from the sky.
Hahoi BAWIPA ni BAWIPA ma koehoi e ganhmai Sodom hoi Gomorrah kho dawk kho lah a rak sak.
25 He overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.
Hote khopui roi hoi thingyei yawn pueng, khopui karingkungnaw abuemlah talai hoi ka paw e thingkung pueng koung a raphoe.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
Hatei, a yu teh hnuklah a kangvawi dawkvah, palawi khom lah a kangcoung.
27 Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before God.
Abraham teh BAWIPA hmalah a kangduenae hmuen koe amom vah a cei.
28 He looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and he saw; and look, the smoke was rising from the land like smoke from a furnace.
Sodom hoi Gomorrah thingyei yawn pueng a khet navah, takhuen koe e hmaikhu patetlah ram pueng dawk e hmaikhu kahlun lah a luen e hah a hmu.
29 It happened, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.
Hottelah Cathut ni thingyei yawn dawk e khopuinaw a raphoe lahunnah hoi Lot onae khopuinaw a raphoe nah Cathut ni Abraham a pahnim hoeh dawkvah, Lot teh rawknae koehoi a hlout sak.
30 Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to live in Zoar. He lived in a cave with his two daughters.
Hottelah Lot teh, Zoar kho hoi a luen teh mon dawk kho a sak. A canu kahni touh hai ama koe ao. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Zoar kho dawk o hane ngam hoeh. Hahoi a canu kahni touh hoi lungngoum thung ao awh.
31 The firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the land to sleep with us according to the custom of all the land.
A canu kacue e ni a nawngha koe, apa a matawng toe, talai van e phung patetlah maimouh roi na ka ipkhai hane tongpa awm hoeh.
32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will sleep with him, that we may preserve our family through our father."
Thohaw, apa misurtui pânei roi sei. Apa e miphun apout hoeh nahanlah ipkhai roi sei, telah atipouh.
33 They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and slept with her father. He did not know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
Hote tangmin vah, misurtui a na pa a pânei roi teh, a na pa ni a ikhai e hoi bout a thaw e hah panuek hoeh.
34 It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, "Look, I slept last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine again tonight. You go in, and sleep with him, that we may preserve our family through our father."
Atangtho amom teh, kacue e ni paduem tangmin apa hoi kai ka i roi toe. Atu tangmin vah misurtui bout pânei sei. Apa e miphun a pout hoeh nahanelah, nang louk ipkhai loe atipouh.
35 They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger went and slept with him. He did not know when she lay down, nor when she got up.
Hote tangmin haiyah a na pa misurtui a pânei roi hnukkhu, kanaw e ni a na pa a ikhai teh, a i e hoi bout a thaw e a na pa ni panuek hoeh.
36 Thus both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
Hottelah Lot e canu roi teh camo a vawn roi.
37 The firstborn bore a son, and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites to this day.
Kacue e ni tongpa a khe teh, Moab telah a min a phung. Hote tami teh atu kaawm e Moab miphunnaw e a na pa lah ao.
38 The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben Ammi. He is the father of the people of Ammon to this day.
Kanaw e ni hai tongpa a khe teh, Benammi telah min a phung. Hote tami teh sahnin totouh kaawm e Ammon miphunnaw e a na pa doeh.
