< Genesis 19 >

1 So the two messengers went in towards Sodom at eventide, Lot, being seated in the gate of Sodom, —so Lot beheld and rose up to meet them, and bowed himself with his face to the earth.
Lamatualain feꞌe olaꞌ no Abraham ma, ate Na rua mia sorga risiꞌ kota Sodꞌom. Ara losa naa te, relo a nae mopo ena. Leleꞌ naa, Lot feꞌe endoꞌ sia kota a lelesu ine na. Nita atahori karuaꞌ ra ma, ana neu soru se. Ana sendeꞌ lululangga na ma beꞌutee mia mata nara.
2 And he said Behold, I pray you my lords turn aside, I pray you, into the house of your servant, —and tarry the night and bathe your feet, so shall ye rise early, and go on your way. And they said, Nay, but, in the broad way, will we tarry the night.
Ma ana olaꞌ nae, “Ama nggare! Ima tuli ume ngga dei. Safe ei mara, ma sungguꞌ. Mbila fefetu na fo, feꞌe lao naa.” Te rataa rae, “Makasi. Afiꞌ tao ia-naa! Hai sungguꞌ miiꞌ a lenu loaꞌ ia.”
3 But he became exceeding urgent with them, so they turned aside unto him and entered into his house, —and he made for them a banquet, unleavened cakes, also did he bake, and they did eat.
Te Lot kokoe nakandooꞌ a, losa ara nau. Boe ma Lot se tunu roti, ma sadꞌia mei fo raa raꞌabꞌue.
4 Ere yet they lay down, the men of the city—the men of Sodom, had come round against the house, from youth even unto age, —all the people from every quarter,
Fuiꞌ ra nda feꞌe sungguꞌ sa, te touꞌ Sodꞌom ra moko-anak, rema heo rala Lot ume na.
5 And they called unto Lot and said to him, Where are the men who have come in unto thee tonight? Bring them forth unto us, and let us know them!
Ara rameli Lot rae, “He, Lot! Tou karuaꞌ faꞌ ra, sia bee? Fee se dea rema, te hai mae bodꞌe se!”
6 And Lot went forth unto them to the entrance; but the door, closed he behind him.
Boe ma Lot dea neu, ma ena lelesu a.
7 And he said, —Do not I pray you my brethren act wickedly.
Ana olaꞌ nae, “Toronooꞌ re! Afiꞌ tao deꞌulakaꞌ neu fuiꞌ nggara.
8 Behold, I pray you, I, have two daughters who have not known man, I must needs now bring, them, forth unto you, and do ye to them, as may be good in your eyes, —Only to these men, ye may do nothing; for on this account, have they come under the shade of my roof.
Rena dei! Au ana feto nggara rua, feꞌe feto anaꞌ ra. Onaꞌ bee naa, au fee se reu hei. Hei mae tao se taꞌo bee o, naa siaꞌ a hei e. Sadꞌi afiꞌ tao saa-saa neu au fuiꞌ nggara boe. Huu tungga hita hadat na, au musi unea se malolole.”
9 And they said, Stand back, And they said, This one, by himself, hath come in to sojourn and must always be acting the judge, Now, will we do more wickedly to thee, than to them. So they pressed sore upon the man—upon Lot—exceedingly, and drew near to break open the door.
Te atahori Sodꞌom ra rameli rae, “Ho afiꞌ sambor! Ho, manatain! Ho atahori deaꞌ, nda muꞌena hak fadꞌuli hai sa. Dinggoꞌ naa! Hokoꞌ naa, hai tao nggo lenaꞌ atahori karuaꞌ naa ra!” Boe ma ara timba hendi Lot, de reu tara lelesu a, fo rae ralutu e.
10 And the men thrust forth their hand, and brought Lot in unto them into the house—and, the door, they closed:
Te atahori karuaꞌ ra soi lelesu ma loo lima nara de lea Lot ume rala neu. Basa ma, ara nggoe lelesu a,
11 the men also who were at the entrance of the house, smote they with blindness, from small even unto great, so that they wearied themselves to find the entrance.
ma tao rapokeꞌ atahori Sodꞌom ra mata nara. Naa de, ara nggao-nggao lelesu a, te nda hambu sa.
12 And the men said unto Lot, Whom besides hast thou here? Son-in-law and thy sons and thy daughters, and all that thou hast in the city, bring thou forth out of the place;
Basa ma, fuiꞌ ka ruaꞌ naa ra olaꞌ ro Lot rae, “Lot! LAMATUALAIN nahine kamboꞌ ia deꞌulaka na ena. Ana fee hai ima fo tao milutu e. Dadꞌi feꞌe muꞌena odꞌi-aꞌa, ana touꞌ, do inaꞌ, do ana mone feus, do sudꞌi a se sia kamboꞌ ia, do hokoꞌ? Mete ma, sia, muu mala se fo lao hela ia leo!”
13 For we are about to destroy this place, —for, great, is the outcry of them unto the face of Yahweh, so that Yahweh hath sent us to destroy it.
14 And Lot went forth and spake unto his sons-in-law who were about to take his two daughters and said Arise come forth out of this place, for Yahweh is about to destroy the city. And it came to pass, that he was as one that laughed, in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
De Lot neu nandaa no touꞌ rua mana rae dadꞌi ana mone feu nara. Nafadꞌe se nae, “Rena malolole! Hei lao hela kamboꞌ ia leo, te LAMATUALAIN nae tao nalutu e!” Te ara rae Lot olaꞌ andiaoꞌ.
15 But as soon as, the dawn had sprung up, the messengers hastened Lot saying, —Arise! take thy wife and thy two daughters that are at hand, lest thou be swept away in the punishment of the city.
Mbila fefetu na ma, Lamatualain ate karuaꞌ naa ra, raꞌasusuuꞌ Lot se lao hela Sodꞌom lai-lai. Ara rae, “Lot! Fela leo! Mendi sao ma, ma ana feto mara ruꞌa se, fo mela hela kamboꞌ ia leo. Afiꞌ losa hei mate hieꞌ a, ma mimbilutu mo kamboꞌ ia.”
16 And he lingered—so the men laid hold of his hand and of the hand of his wife and of the hand of his two daughters, in the tenderness of Yahweh towards him, —and they brought him out and led him forth outside the city.
Te Lot feꞌe pale-pale. Tao-tao te LAMATUALAIN nae fee ne nasodꞌa. Naa de, fuiꞌ karuaꞌ ra toꞌu lima nara de nore Lot, ma sao na, ma ana feto nara ruꞌa se, de ro se lao hela kamboꞌ naa.
17 And it came to pass when they had brought them forth outside, that they said, Escape for thy life, Look not behind thee, neither stand still in all the vale, —To the mountain, escape thou lest thou be swept away.
Boe ma fuiꞌ esa parenda se nae, “Melaꞌ lai-lai, fo sangga masodꞌa leo! Afiꞌ mete deaꞌ! Afiꞌ hahae sia lololoꞌ! Mela mikindoo misiꞌ leteꞌ naa, fo hei afiꞌ mate!”
18 And Lot said unto them, —No, I pray thee, My Lord!
Te Lot nataa nae, “Aduu, amaꞌ! Afiꞌ taꞌo naa!
19 Behold, I pray thee thy servant hath found favour in thine eyes, so that thou hast magnified thy lovingkindness which thou hast performed with me in keeping alive my soul.—But, I, cannot escape to the mountain, lest calamity overtake me so shall I die.
Memaꞌ amaꞌ tulu-fali fee masodꞌa neu hai. Akaꞌ a leteꞌ naa, doo na seli! Seꞌu te hai nda feꞌe losa naa sa, te deꞌulakaꞌ oi hambu hai siaꞌ a dalaꞌ taladꞌa na ena.
20 Behold, I pray thee, this city, is near for fleeing thither And, it, is a little one, let me I pray thee, escape thither—is it not a, little, one? That my soul may live!
Amaꞌ mete dei. Hambu kambo anaꞌ esa nda naꞌadꞌooꞌ no ia sa. Kamboꞌ naa nda nandaandaa sa. De mete ma amaꞌ nau, naa hai mii sangga masodꞌa sia naa.”
21 And he said unto him, Behold! I have lifted up thy countenance, even as to this thing, —so that I will not overthrow the city, of which thou hast spoken.
Nataa nae, “Neu! Mii leo! Au nda tao ulutu kamboꞌ naa sa.
22 Haste thee escape thither, for I cannot do anything, until thou have come in thither. For this cause: was the name of the city called Zoar.
Mela lai-lai mii leo! Mete ma hei nda feꞌe losa naa sa naa, au nda bisa tao saa-saa saꞌ boe.” Eniꞌ a leleꞌ naa, atahori babꞌae kamboꞌ naa naran Soar, sosoa na ‘anak’.
23 When, the sun, had come forth on the earth, Lot had entered into Zoar.
Relo a sangga todꞌa ma, Lot se losa Soar.
24 And, Yahweh, rained, upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah, brimstone and fire, —from Yahweh, out of the heavens:
Aiboiꞌ ma, LAMATUALAIN mbori ai no baleran manahotuꞌ mia lalai a nisiꞌ Sodꞌom no Gomora.
25 so he overthrew these cities, and all the circuit, —and all the inhabitants of the cities, and the produce of the ground.
LAMATUALAIN tao nalutu basa kamboꞌ ra ma basa mana masodꞌaꞌ sia mamanaꞌ naa. Basa atahori, banda, ro hau-bebꞌa ra nenehotuꞌ.
26 But his wife looked from behind him, —and became—a pillar of salt.
Lot se rela ma, sao na mete deaꞌ. Aiboiꞌ ma, ana dadꞌi rii masiꞌ.
27 And Abraham gat up early in the morning, unto the place where he had stood before Yahweh;
Mbila fefetu anan ma, Abraham neu seluꞌ mia mamanaꞌ fo afis sa ana nambariiꞌ kokoe LAMATUALAIN.
28 and he looked out over the face of Sodom and Gomorrah, and over all the face of the land of the circuit, and beheld and lo! the smoke of the land went up, like the smoke of a furnace.
Ana mete raeꞌ neu nisiꞌ Sodꞌom no Gomora no ndule lololoꞌ a. Sia bee-bꞌee masuꞌ bubꞌue-bubꞌueꞌ hene lalai neu. Ma ai a naa hendi basaꞌ e.
29 And it came to pass when God destroyed the cities of the circuit, that God remembered Abraham, and sent forth Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities wherein Lot had dwelt.
Dadꞌi leleꞌ Lamatualain tao nalutu mamanaꞌ a, nasanedꞌa hehelu Na neu Abraham. Naa de, Ana nore hendi Lot mia mamana nenehuku-dokiꞌ naa.
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, so he dwelt in a cave, he, and his two daughters.
Basa naa ma, Lot namatau leo nakandoo sia kamboꞌ Soar. Naa de, no ana feto nara ruꞌa se lali risiꞌ leteꞌ reu, de ara leo mia luat esa.
31 And the firstborn said unto the younger. Our father is old, —and, a man, there is not in the earth to come in unto us, after the way of all the earth.
Lao esa, ana feto aꞌa ka olaꞌ no odꞌi na nae, “Sia ia, nda hambu touꞌ esa saꞌ boe fo nema sao hita sa. Nda dooꞌ sa te, amaꞌ boe namalasi fo nda bisa hambu anaꞌ sa ena.
32 Come on! let us cause our father to drink wine and let us lie with him, that we may keep alive from our father, a seed.
De malole lenaꞌ, ata fee ne ninu mafu, fo sungguꞌ to e. Naa fo, ata tute tititi-nonosi nara.”
33 So they caused their father to drink wine that night, —and the firstborn went in. and lay with her father, but he noticed not her lying down nor her rising up.
Tetembaꞌ naa, ara fee ama na ninu anggor de mafu. Boe ma ana aꞌa ka neu sungguꞌ no e. Te tou lasiꞌ a mafu seli, de nda nitaꞌ nae eni tao sa no ana feto na saꞌ boe.
34 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Lo! I lay, last night with my father, let us cause him to drink wine this night also, and go thou in—lie with him, that we may keep alive from our father, a seed.
Mbila ma, aꞌa ka nafadꞌe odꞌi na nae, ‘Odꞌiꞌ! Tembaꞌ a au sungguꞌ o amaꞌ ena. Tetembaꞌ ia, ho hahambu ma. Dei fo tamafuꞌ amaꞌ fai, fo muu sungguꞌ mo e. Naa fo, hita ruꞌa nggita hambu anaꞌ, fo tute tititi-nonosi nara.”
35 So they caused their father, on that night also to drink wine, and the younger arose, and lay with him, but he noticed not her lying down, nor her rising up.
Tetemba na boe, ara tao ramafuꞌ ama na. De ana feto muri ka neu sungguꞌ no e. Te toulasiꞌ a mafu seli, de nda nitaꞌ nae eni tao sa no ana feto na saꞌ boe.
36 Thus did, the two daughters of Lot conceive from their father.
No taꞌo naa, ruꞌa se rairu mia ama bꞌonggi na.
37 And the firstborn bare a son, and called his name Moab, —the same, is the father of Moab, unto this day.
Boe ma aꞌa ka bꞌonggi ana touꞌ esa. Ana babꞌae e Moab (lii na onaꞌ dedꞌea Ibrani sa, sosoa na nae ‘nema mia amaꞌ’). Ana dadꞌi atahori Moab ra bei-baꞌi nara losa faiꞌ ia.
38 And the younger she also bare a son, and called his name Ben-ammi, —the same, is the father of the sons of Ammon—unto this day.
Ma odꞌi a bꞌonggi touꞌ esa. Ana babꞌae e Ben Ami (sosoa na ‘mia au atahori ngga’). Ana dadꞌi atahori Amon ra bei-baꞌi nara losa faiꞌ ia.
