< 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.
Ní àṣálẹ́, àwọn angẹli méjì sì wá sí ìlú Sodomu, Lọti sì jókòó ní ẹnu ibodè ìlú. Bí ó sì ti rí wọn, ó sì dìde láti pàdé wọn, ó kí wọn, ó sì foríbalẹ̀ fún wọn.
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.”
Ó wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin olúwa mi, èmi bẹ̀ yín, ẹ yà sí ilé ìránṣẹ́ yín kí ẹ sì wẹ ẹsẹ̀ yín, kí n sì gbà yín lálejò, ẹ̀yin ó sì dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ láti máa bá ìrìnàjò yín lọ.” Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Rárá o, àwa yóò dúró ní ìgboro ní òru òní.”
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n Lọti rọ̀ wọ́n gidigidi tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí wọ́n gbà láti bá a lọ sì ilé. Ó sì ṣe àsè fún wọn, ó sì dín àkàrà aláìwú fún wọ́n, wọ́n sì jẹ.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n kí ó tó di pé wọ́n lọ sùn, àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú Sodomu tọmọdé tàgbà yí ilé náà ká.
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]
Wọ́n pe Lọti pé, “Àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wọ̀ sí ilé rẹ lálẹ́ yìí ń kọ́? Mú wọn jáde fún wa, kí a le ní ìbálòpọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn.”
6 Lot went outside the house and shut the door behind him, so that they could not go inside.
Lọti sì jáde láti pàdé wọn, ó sì ti ìlẹ̀kùn lẹ́yìn rẹ̀ bí ó ti jáde.
7 He said to them, “My friends, don’t do such an evil thing!
Ó sì wí pé, “Rárá, ẹ̀yin ará mi, ẹ má ṣe ṣe ohun búburú yìí,
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]!”
kíyèsi i, mo ní ọmọbìnrin méjì tí kò mọ ọkùnrin rí, ẹ jẹ́ kí n mú wọn tọ̀ yín wá kí ẹ sì ṣe ohun tí ẹ fẹ́ pẹ̀lú wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ má ṣe ṣe àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí ní ibi kan nítorí wọ́n wá wọ̀ lábẹ́ ààbò ní ilé mi.”
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.
Wọ́n sì wí fún pé, “Bì sẹ́yìn fún wa. Èyí yìí wá ṣe àtìpó láàrín wa, òun sì fẹ́ ṣe onídàájọ́! Aburú tí a ó fi ṣe ọ́ yóò pọ̀ ju tí wọn lọ.” Wọn rọ́ lu Lọti, wọ́n sì súnmọ́ ọn láti fọ́ ìlẹ̀kùn.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin náà nawọ́ fa Lọti wọlé, wọ́n sì ti ìlẹ̀kùn.
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.
Wọ́n sì bu ìfọ́jú lu àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé náà, àti èwe àti àgbà: wọ́n kò sì rí ẹnu-ọ̀nà mọ́.
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,
Àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì wí fún Lọti pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ó ní ẹlòmíràn ní ìlú yìí bí? Àna rẹ ọkùnrin, àwọn ọmọ rẹ lọ́kùnrin àti lóbìnrin, tàbí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ìwọ ní ní ìlú yìí, kó wọn jáde kúrò ní ibí yìí,
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.”
nítorí a ó pa ìlú yìí run, nítorí igbe iṣẹ́ búburú wọn ń dí púpọ̀ níwájú Olúwa, Olúwa sì rán wa láti pa á run.”
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.
Nígbà náà ni Lọti jáde, ó sì wí fún àwọn àna rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tí ó ti bá jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ láti fẹ́ àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ ṣe kánkán, kí ẹ jáde ní ìlú yìí, nítorí Olúwa fẹ́ pa ìlú yìí run!” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkọ ọmọ rẹ̀ wọ̀nyí rò pé àwàdà ló ń ṣe.
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!”
Ní àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, àwọn angẹli náà rọ Lọti pé, “Ṣe wéré, mú aya rẹ àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ méjèèjì tí ó wà níhìn-ín, àìṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ìwọ yóò parun pẹ̀lú ìlú yìí nígbà tí wọ́n bá ń jìyà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.”
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.
Nígbà tí ó ń jáfara, àwọn ọkùnrin náà nawọ́ mú un lọ́wọ́, wọ́n sì nawọ́ mú aya rẹ̀ náà lọ́wọ́ àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ méjèèjì, wọ́n sì mú wọn jáde sẹ́yìn odi ìlú, nítorí Olúwa ṣàánú fún wọn.
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!”
Ní kété tí wọ́n mú wọn jáde sẹ́yìn odi tán, ọ̀kan nínú wọn wí pé, “Sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ! Má ṣe wo ẹ̀yìn rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ kí ó má ṣe dúró ní gbogbo pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀! Sá àsálà lọ sí orí òkè, kí ìwọ ó má ba ṣègbé!”
18 But Lot said to one of the angels, “No, sir, don’t make me do that!
Ṣùgbọ́n Lọti wí fún wọn pé, “Rárá, ẹ̀yin Olúwa mi, ẹ jọ̀wọ́!
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].
Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ti rí ojúrere rẹ, tí o sì ti fi àánú rẹ hàn nípa gbígba ẹ̀mí mi là, èmi kò le è sálọ sórí òkè, kí búburú yìí má ba à lé mi bá, kí n sì kú.
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.”
Wò ó, ìlú kékeré kan nìyí ní tòsí láti sá sí: jẹ́ kí n sálọ síbẹ̀, ìlú kékeré ha kọ́? Ẹ̀mí mi yóò sì yè.”
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.
Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ó dára, mo gba ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ. Èmi kì yóò run ìlú náà tí ìwọ sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
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.
Tètè! Sálọ síbẹ̀, nítorí èmi kò le ṣe ohun kan àyàfi tí ó bá dé ibẹ̀.” (ìdí nìyí tí a fi ń pe ìlú náà ní Soari).
23 As the sun was rising, Lot and his family arrived in the town which is now called Zoar.
Nígbà tí Lọti yóò fi dé ìlú Soari, oòrùn ti yọ.
24 Then Yahweh caused fire and [burning] sulfur to fall down on Sodom and Gomorrah like rain.
Nígbà náà ni Olúwa rọ̀jò iná àti sulfuru sórí Sodomu àti Gomorra láti ọ̀run lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa wá.
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.
Báyìí ni ó run àwọn ìlú náà àti gbogbo ilẹ̀ pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà ní ìlú ńlá ńlá wọ̀n-ọn-nì àti ohun gbogbo tí ó hù jáde nílẹ̀.
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n aya Lọti bojú wo ẹ̀yìn, ó sì di ọ̀wọ́n iyọ̀.
27 That morning, Abraham got up and went to the place where he had stood in front of Yahweh.
Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Abrahamu sì dìde ó sì padà lọ sí ibi tí ó gbé dúró níwájú Olúwa.
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.
Ó sì wo ìhà Sodomu àti Gomorra àti àwọn ilẹ̀ pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, ó sì rí èéfín tí ń ti ibẹ̀ jáde bí èéfín iná ìléru.
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.
Ọlọ́run sì rántí Abrahamu, nígbà tí ó run ìlú pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì tan, ó sì mú Lọti jáde kúrò láàrín ìparun náà, tí ó kọlu ìlú tí Lọti ti gbé.
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.
Lọti àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ obìnrin méjèèjì sì kúrò ní Soari, wọ́n sì ń lọ gbé ní orí òkè ní inú ihò àpáta, nítorí ó bẹ̀rù láti gbé ní ìlú Soari.
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.
Ní ọjọ́ kan, èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sọ fún àbúrò rẹ̀ pé, “Baba wa ti dàgbà, kò sì sí ọkùnrin kankan ní agbègbè yìí tí ìbá bá wa lòpọ̀, bí ìṣe gbogbo ayé.
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.”
Wá, jẹ́ kí a mú baba wa mu ọtí yó, kí ó ba à le bá wa lòpọ̀, kí àwa kí ó lè bí ọmọ, kí ìran wa má ba à parẹ́.”
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.
Ní òru ọjọ́ náà, wọ́n rọ baba wọn ní ọtí yó. Èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sì wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, baba wọn kò mọ̀ ìgbà tí ó sùn ti òun àti ìgbà tí ó dìde.
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.”
Ní ọjọ́ kejì èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n wí fún àbúrò rẹ̀ pé, “Ní àná mo sùn ti baba mi. Jẹ́ kí a tún wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, kí a lè ní irú-ọmọ láti ọ̀dọ̀ baba wa.”
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.
Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n tún fún baba wọn ní ọtí mu yó ni alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, èyí àbúrò náà sì wọlé tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, kò sì tún mọ ìgbà tí ó wọlé sùn ti òun tàbí ìgbà tí ó dìde.
36 So Lot caused his two daughters to become pregnant.
Àwọn ọmọbìnrin Lọti méjèèjì sì lóyún fún baba wọn.
37 The older one later gave birth to a son, whom she named Moab. He became the ancestor of the Moab people-group.
Èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sì bí ọmọkùnrin, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Moabu. Òun ni baba ńlá àwọn ará Moabu lónìí.
38 The younger one also gave birth to a son, whom she named Ben-Ammi. He became the ancestor of the Ammon people-group.
Èyí àbúrò náà sì bí ọmọkùnrin, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Bene-Ami. Òun ni baba ńlá àwọn ará Ammoni lónìí.
