Genesis 19
1 That evening, the two angels arrived in Sodom. Lot was sitting at the gateway of the city. When he saw them, he got up to greet them, and prostrated himself with his face on the ground.
Sesudah bertamu pada Abraham, kedua malaikat itu pergi ke Sodom dan tiba di sana pada waktu malam. Lot sedang duduk di pintu gerbang kota, dan setelah melihat mereka, ia bangkit untuk menyambut mereka. Lalu sujudlah ia di hadapan mereka,
2 He said to them, “Gentlemen, please stay in my house tonight. You can wash your feet, and tomorrow you can continue your journey.” But they said, “No, we will just sleep in the city square.”
dan berkata, "Tuan-tuan, silakan singgah di rumah saya. Tuan-tuan dapat membasuh kaki dan bermalam di rumah saya. Besok kalau mau, Tuan-tuan dapat bangun pagi-pagi dan meneruskan perjalanan." Tetapi mereka menjawab, "Terima kasih, biar kami bermalam di sini saja, di lapangan kota."
3 But Lot kept insisting strongly that they sleep in his house. So they entered his house with him, and he prepared a meal for them. He baked some bread without yeast, and they ate it.
Lot memohon dengan sangat, dan akhirnya mereka masuk bersama dia ke dalam rumahnya. Lot menyediakan hidangan lezat dan memanggang roti secukupnya, lalu makanlah mereka.
4 After they finished eating, before they went to bed, the men of Sodom [city], all of them, from the young ones to the old ones, surrounded the house.
Tetapi sebelum tamu-tamu itu pergi tidur, orang-orang Sodom mengepung rumah itu. Semua orang laki-laki di kota itu, baik yang tua maupun yang muda, ada di situ.
5 They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the men who came to your house this evening? Bring them out, so that we can have sex with them!” [EUP]
Mereka berseru kepada Lot, dan bertanya, "Di mana orang-orang yang datang bermalam di rumahmu? Serahkan mereka, supaya kami dapat bercampur dengan mereka!"
6 Lot went outside the house and shut the door behind him, so that they could not go inside.
Lot keluar dari rumahnya, dan sesudah menutup pintu,
7 He said to them, “My friends, don’t do such an evil thing!
ia berkata kepada orang-orang Sodom itu, "Saudara-saudara, saya minta dengan sangat, janganlah melakukan hal yang sejahat itu!
8 Listen to me. I have two daughters who have never had sex with any man. Let me bring them out to you now, and you can do with them whatever pleases you. But don’t do anything to these men, because they are guests in my house, [so I must protect them]!”
Coba dengar, saya punya dua anak perawan. Biar saya serahkan mereka kepada kalian dan kalian boleh melakukan apa saja dengan mereka. Tetapi jangan apa-apakan tamu-tamu saya ini; sebab saya wajib melindungi mereka."
9 But they replied, “Get out of our way! You are a foreigner; so you have no right to tell us what is right! [If you don’t get out of our way], we will do worse things to you than we will do to them!” Then they lunged towards Lot, and tried forcefully to break down the door.
Tetapi kata orang-orang Sodom itu kepada Lot, "Pergi! Engkau orang asing mau mengatur kami? Ayo, pergi! Kalau tidak, engkau akan kami hajar lebih berat daripada kedua orang itu." Lalu mereka mendorong Lot dan menyerbu hendak mendobrak pintu.
10 But the two angels opened the door carefully, reached out their hands, and pulled Lot to them inside the house. Then they quickly shut the door.
Tetapi kedua tamu itu mengulurkan tangan mereka dan menarik Lot masuk ke dalam rumah, lalu menutup pintu.
11 Then they caused all the men who were outside the door of the house, young and old, to become blind, so that they could not find the door.
Mereka membutakan semua orang yang ada di luar rumah itu, sehingga orang-orang itu tidak dapat menemukan pintu itu lagi.
12 Then the two angels said to Lot, “Who else is with you here? If you have sons or sons-in-law or daughters or anyone else in the city who is related to you, take them out of the city,
Kedua tamu itu berkata kepada Lot, "Jika engkau mempunyai anak laki-laki, anak perempuan, menantu atau sanak saudara lainnya yang tinggal di dalam kota ini, bawalah mereka keluar dari sini,
13 because we are the ones who are going to destroy this place. Yahweh considers that these people are so evil that he sent us to destroy the city.”
sebab kota ini akan kami musnahkan. TUHAN telah mendengar tuduhan-tuduhan berat terhadap penduduk di sini, dan kami telah diutusnya untuk menumpas kota Sodom."
14 So Lot went and spoke to the men who had pledged to marry his daughters. He said to them, “Hurry! Get out of this city, because Yahweh is about to destroy it!” But his future sons-in-law thought he was joking.
Lalu pergilah Lot menemui dua orang tunangan kedua anaknya, dan berkata, "Cepatlah keluar dari tempat ini, sebab TUHAN akan memusnahkannya." Tetapi mereka mengira Lot bergurau saja.
15 As it was about to dawn the next morning, the two angels urged Lot, saying, “Get up quickly! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here with you and leave! If you don’t, you will die when [we destroy/Yahweh destroys] the city!”
Pada waktu subuh, kedua malaikat itu mendesak Lot supaya lekas berangkat. "Cepatlah," kata mereka. "Pergilah dengan istrimu dan kedua anak gadismu dari sini, supaya kalian jangan mati apabila kota ini dimusnahkan."
16 When Lot hesitated, the angels grasped his hand and his wife’s hand and the hands of his two daughters. They led them outside the city safely. The angels did that because Yahweh was acting mercifully toward them.
Lot bimbang. Tetapi TUHAN merasa kasihan kepadanya; karena itu kedua tamunya menuntun Lot dan istrinya serta kedua anaknya ke luar kota.
17 When they were outside the city, one of the angels said, “[If you want to remain alive], run away quickly! Don’t look back! And don’t stop anywhere in the valley! Flee to the hills! If you don’t, you will die!”
Sesudah itu seorang dari malaikat itu berkata, "Larilah, selamatkan nyawamu! Jangan menoleh ke belakang dan jangan berhenti di lembah. Larilah ke pegunungan, supaya kalian jangan mati!"
18 But Lot said to one of the angels, “No, sir, don’t make me do that!
Tetapi Lot menjawab, "Aduh, Tuan jangan suruh kami lari ke pegunungan.
19 Please, listen. You have been pleased with me and have been very kind to me and spared my life. But I cannot flee to the mountain. If I try to do that, I will die in this disaster [PRS].
Memang, Tuan telah sangat menolong saya dan menyelamatkan nyawa saya. Tetapi pegunungan itu begitu jauh; jangan-jangan saya tersusul bencana itu lalu mati sebelum sampai di sana.
20 But listen to me. There is a town nearby. Let me run to that small town. Let me go there now. It is a small town, but our lives will be saved if we go there.”
Lihat, di depan itu ada kota kecil yang tidak begitu jauh. Izinkan saya lari ke sana supaya selamat."
21 One of the angels said to Lot, “I will allow you to do what you have requested [MTY]. I will not destroy the little town you are speaking about.
Malaikat itu menjawab, "Baiklah, kota kecil itu tak akan kutumpas.
22 But hurry! Run there, because I cannot destroy anything until you arrive there.” People later called the name of the town Zoar [which means ‘small’, ] because Lot said it was small.
Cepat, larilah! Sebab aku tidak bisa berbuat apa-apa sebelum engkau sampai di sana." Karena Lot menyebut kota itu kecil, maka kota itu dinamakan Zoar.
23 As the sun was rising, Lot and his family arrived in the town which is now called Zoar.
Matahari sedang terbit ketika Lot sampai di Zoar.
24 Then Yahweh caused fire and [burning] sulfur to fall down on Sodom and Gomorrah like rain.
Tiba-tiba TUHAN menurunkan hujan belerang yang berapi atas Sodom dan Gomora.
25 In that way, he destroyed those cities and all the people who were living in those cities. He also destroyed everything in the valley, including all the plants/vegetation.
Kedua kota itu dihancurkan, juga seluruh lembah dan semua tumbuh-tumbuhan serta semua penduduk di situ.
26 But Lot’s wife stopped and looked back [to see what was happening], so she died, and her body [later] became a pillar of salt.
Tetapi istri Lot menoleh ke belakang, lalu dia berubah menjadi tiang garam.
27 That morning, Abraham got up and went to the place where he had stood in front of Yahweh.
Keesokan harinya, pagi-pagi, Abraham cepat-cepat pergi ke tempat ia berdiri di hadapan TUHAN sehari sebelumnya.
28 He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and he [was surprised to] see that all over the valley, smoke was rising, like the smoke of a huge furnace.
Ia memandang ke arah Sodom dan Gomora dan ke seluruh lembah, dan melihat asap mengepul dari tanah itu, seperti asap dari tungku raksasa.
29 So, when God destroyed those cities in the valley, he remembered what he had promised Abraham, and he rescued Lot from the disaster that occurred in the cities where Lot had lived.
Demikianlah, ketika Allah membinasakan kota-kota itu di lembah di mana Lot tinggal, Allah ingat kepada Abraham dan menolong Lot melarikan diri.
30 Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, so he left there and moved with his two daughters to the mountain, and they lived in a cave.
Karena Lot takut menetap di Zoar, maka pergilah ia ke pegunungan bersama-sama dengan kedua anaknya perempuan, lalu tinggal di dalam sebuah gua.
31 One day the older daughter said to (the younger daughter/her sister), “Our father is old, and there is no man in this area who can have sex [EUP] with us, as people all over the earth do.
Anak perempuan yang sulung berkata kepada adiknya, "Ayah sudah tua, dan di seluruh negeri ini tak ada orang laki-laki yang dapat mengawini kita supaya kita mendapat anak.
32 Let’s make our father drink wine until he gets drunk. Then we can have sex with him [EUP] [without him knowing it]. In that way [he will cause us to become pregnant] and we can bear children.”
Mari, kita buat ayah mabuk, lalu kita tidur dengan dia supaya kita mendapat anak."
33 So that night they caused their father to become drunk. And the older daughter went in and lay in bed with her father, and he had sex with her, but he was so drunk that he did not know when she lay down with him or when she got up.
Pada malam itu mereka memberi ayah mereka minum anggur, lalu anak yang sulung tidur dengan ayahnya; tetapi ayahnya begitu mabuk sehingga tidak tahu apa yang terjadi.
34 The next day, his older daughter said to (his younger daughter/her sister), “Listen to me. Last night I slept with our father. Let’s cause him to become drunk again tonight! This time you can go and sleep with him. If he has sex with you, you can become pregnant, and that way you can have a child, too.”
Keesokan harinya, anak yang sulung berkata kepada adiknya, "Tadi malam saya sudah tidur dengan ayah! Nanti malam kita buat dia mabuk lagi. Lalu tidurlah kau dengan dia. Nanti kita masing-masing mendapat anak."
35 So that night, they caused their father to become drunk with wine again, and then his younger daughter went and slept with him. But again, he was so drunk that he did not know when she lay down with him or when she got up.
Demikianlah pada malam itu mereka membuat Lot mabuk, dan anaknya yang kedua tidur dengan dia. Dan Lot terlalu mabuk lagi sehingga tidak tahu apa yang terjadi.
36 So Lot caused his two daughters to become pregnant.
Lalu mengandunglah kedua anak Lot itu karena ayah mereka sendiri.
37 The older one later gave birth to a son, whom she named Moab. He became the ancestor of the Moab people-group.
Anak yang sulung melahirkan anak laki-laki yang dinamakannya Moab. Dia menjadi leluhur orang Moab yang sekarang.
38 The younger one also gave birth to a son, whom she named Ben-Ammi. He became the ancestor of the Ammon people-group.
Anak yang kedua melahirkan anak laki-laki juga yang dinamakannya Ben-Ami. Dia menjadi leluhur bangsa Amon yang sekarang.
