6 Lot tu ʋɔ ɖe amedzroawo nu, eye wòyi wo gbɔ
And Lot went out at doores vnto them and shote the dore after him
7 ɖaɖe kuku na wo be, “Nɔvinyewo, migawɔ nu baɖa sia tɔgbi o.
and sayde: nay for goddes sake brethren do not so wekedly.
8 Mikpɔ ɖa, ɖetugbi eve siwo menya ŋutsu haɖe o la le asinye. Maɖe asi le wo ŋu na mi be miawɔ nu sia nu si adze mia ŋu la kpli wo. Ke migawɔ naneke amedzro siawo ya o, elabena nye dzikpɔkpɔ te wole.”
Beholde I haue two doughters which haue knowne no man the will I brynge out vnto you: do with them as it semeth you good: Only vnto these men do nothynge for therfore came they vnder the shadowe of my rofe.
9 Wodo ɣli sesĩe be, “He ɖa le afi ma! Ame kae nèbu be yenye? Míeɖe mɔ na Lot be wòanɔ mía dome abe amedzro ene, ke azɔ la, ele didim be yeagblɔ nu si míawo míawɔ la na mí! Míawɔ nu vevi wò wu nu si míawɔ ame mawo.” Wolũ ɖe Lot dzi, eye wode asi ʋɔtrua gbagbã me.
And they sayde: come hither. And they sayde: camest thou not in to sogeorne and wilt thou be now a iudge? we will suerly deale worse with the than with themAnd as they preased fore vppon Lot and beganne to breake vp the doore
10 Ke mawudɔla eveawo ʋu ʋɔa, do asi ɖa, he Lot va xɔa me, tu ʋɔa,
the men put forth their handes and pulled Lot in to the house to them and shott to the doore.
11 eye wona Sodomtɔwo ƒe ŋkuwo dzi tsyɔ sẽe, ale be womegate ŋu kpɔ ʋɔtru la o.
And the men that were at the doore of the house they smote with blyndnesse both small and greate: so that they coude not fynde the doore.
12 Mawudɔlawo bia Lot be, “Wò ƒometɔ kawoe le du sia me? Na woawo ŋutɔ, wo viŋutsuwo, wo vinyɔnuwo, wo toyɔviwo kple lɔ̃xoyɔviwo kple woƒe ƒometɔ bubuawo katã nadzo le du sia me,
And the men sayde moreover vnto Lot: Yf thou have yet here any sonne in lawe or sonnes or doughters or what so euer thou hast in the cyte brynge it out of this place:
13 elabena míele du sia tsrɔ̃ ge keŋkeŋ. Nutsotso tso teƒe sia ŋu va ɖo dziƒo, eya ta Yehowa ɖo mí ɖa be míatsrɔ̃e.”
for we must destroy this place because the crye of the is great before the LORde. Wherfore he hath sent vs to destroy it.
14 Nu sia na Lot ɖe abla yi ɖagblɔ na viawo srɔ̃wo be, “Netsɔ na mi miado go le du sia me, elabena Yehowa le du sia tsrɔ̃ ge.” Ke toawo bui ko abe ahatso kam wòle ene.
And Lot went out and spake vnto his sonnes in lawe which shulde haue maried his doughters and sayde: stonde vpp and get yow out of this place for the LORde will destroy the cite. But he semed as though he had mocked vnto his sonnes in law.
15 Le fɔŋli la, mawudɔlawo gblɔ na Lot be, “Netsɔ na wò, nàkplɔ srɔ̃wò kple viwò nyɔnuvi eve siwo le afi sia la, eye miasi adzo, ne menye nenema o la, miatsrɔ̃ le du sia tsɔtsrɔ̃ me.”
And as the mornynge arose the angells caused Lot to spede him saynge. Stonde vp take thy wyfe and thy two doughters and that that is at hande lest thou perish in the synne of the cyte.
16 Esi Lot nɔ hehem ɖe megbe la, mawudɔlawo lé eya ŋutɔ, srɔ̃a kple viawo ƒe alɔnu, eye wohe wo yi dua godo, afi si woanɔ dedie le, elabena Yehowa kpɔ nublanui na wo.
And as he prolonged the tyme the men caught both him his wife ad his two doughters by the handes because the LORde was mercyfull vnto him ad they brought him forth and sette him without the cyte.
17 Mawudɔlawo gblɔ na wo be, “Miɖe abla miaɖe miaƒe agbe, eye migakpɔ megbe o. Misi yi toawo dzi, miganɔ gbadzaƒe le afi sia o. Ne menye nenema o la, miatsrɔ̃.”
When they had brought them out they sayde: Saue thy lyfe and loke not behynde the nether tary thou in any place of the contre but saue thy selfe in the mountayne lest thou perisshe.
18 Lot gblɔ na wo be, “O, nye Aƒetɔwo, meɖe kuku na mi.
Than sayde Lot vnto them: Oh nay my lorde:
19 Esi mieve nunye alea, eye mieɖe nye agbe ta la, mina masi ayi du sue kemɛ ɖa me boŋ, elabena mele vɔvɔ̃m be dzɔgbevɔ̃e aɖe ava ɖi kpem le toawo dzi.
beholde in as moch as thy servaunte hath fownde grace in thy syghte now make thi mercy great which thou shewest vnto me in savinge my lyfe. For I can not saue my selfe in the mountayns lest some misfortune fall vpon me and I dye.
20 Kpɔ ɖa, du la medidi tso afi sia kura o, eye du sue aɖe koe. Meɖe kuku mina mayi afi ma boŋ. Miekpɔ ale si wònye du sue aɖe oa? Matsi agbe le afi ma.”
Beholde here is a cyte by to flee vnto and it is a lytle one: let me saue my selfe therein: is it not a litle one that my soule may lyue?
21 Mawudɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ be, “Enyo, mexɔ wò nya la, eye nyematsrɔ̃ du sue ma o.
And he sayde to him: se I haue receaved thy request as concernynge this thynge that I will nott overthrowe this cytie for the which thou hast spoken.
22 Gake miɖe abla! Elabena nyemate ŋu awɔ naneke o, va se ɖe esime miaɖo afi ma.” (Tso gbe ma gbe dzi la, woyɔa du sue ma be Zoar ɖe ƒe suẽnyenye ta.)
Haste the ad saue thy selfe there for I can do nothynge tyll thou be come in thyder. And therfore the name of the cyte is called Zoar.
23 Ɣe nɔ dzedzem esi Lot ɖo Zoar.
And the sone was vppon the erth when Lot was entred in to Zoar.
24 Tete Yehowa na dzo kple aŋɔ xɔdzo dza tso dziƒo ɖe Sodom kple Gomora dzi,
Than the LORde rayned vpon Sodome and Gomorra brymstone and fyre from the LORde out of heaven
25 gblẽ wo kple du gã kple du sue siwo nɔ gbadzaƒe la, eye amewo, atiwo kple lãwo siaa tsrɔ̃ keŋkeŋ.
and overthrewe those cyteis and all the region and all that dwelled in the cytes and that that grewe vpon the erth.
26 Ke Lot srɔ̃ nye kɔ kpɔ megbe, eye wòtrɔ zu dzekɔ.
And lots wyfe loked behynde her ad was turned in to a pillare of salte.
27 Gbe ma gbe ŋdi la, Abraham fɔ kaba, eye wòɖe abla yi teƒe si wòtsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe ŋkume le la.
Abraham rose vp early and got him to the place where he stode before the LORde
28 Ekpɔ Sodom kple Gomora lɔƒo ɖa, eye wòkpɔ be dzudzɔ nɔ tutum kɔlikɔli tso afi ma abe kpodzo gã aɖe me wònɔ dodom tso ene.
and loked toward Sodome and Gomorra and toward all the londe of that contre. And as he loked: beholde the smoke of the contre arose as it had bene the smoke of a fornace.
29 Ale Mawu se Abraham ƒe kukuɖeɖe, ena Lot nɔ dedie, eye wòɖee tso ku kple tsɔtsrɔ̃ siwo ƒo xlã Sodom, Gomora kple du siwo ƒo xlã wo la me.
But yet whe God destroyed the cities of ye regio he thought a pon Abraha: and sent Lot out from the dager of the overthrowenge when he overthrewe the cyttes where Lot dwelled.
30 Emegbe la, Lot dzo le Zoar, elabena enɔ afi ma tɔwo vɔ̃m, eye wòyi ɖanɔ agado aɖe me le toawo dzi kple via nyɔnuvi eveawo.
And Lot departed out of Zoar and dwelled in the mountayns ad his. ij. doughters with him for he feared to tary in Zoar: he dweld therfore in a caue both he and his. ij. doughters also.
31 Gbe ɖeka la, nyɔnuvi tsitsitɔ gblɔ na nɔvia be, “Ŋutsu aɖeke kura mele anyigba sia ƒe akpa sia lɔƒo si mía fofo alɔ̃ be míaɖe o. Kpe ɖe esia ŋu la, esusɔ vie mía fofo natsi akpa na vidzidzi.
Than sayde the elder vnto the yonger oure father is olde and there are no moo men in the erth to come in vnto vs after the maner of all the world.
32 Na míana mía fofo nano wain amu, eye wòadɔ mía gbɔ, ale be míate ŋu adzi vi, eye míaƒe dzidzime nu matso o.”
Come therfore let vs geue oure father wyne to dryncke and let vs lye with him that we may saue seed of oure father.

And on the morowe the elder sayde vnto the yonger: beholde yesternyghte laye I with my father. Let us geue hym wyne to drinke this nyghte also and goo thou and lye with him and let us saue seed of oure father.
35 Ale wona wo fofo gamu aha gbe ma gbe fiẽ hã, eye nyɔnuvi suetɔ hã yi ɖamlɔ egbɔ. Fofoa dɔ eya hã gbɔ, ke fofoa menya o.
And they gaue their father wyne to drincke that nyghte also. And the yonger arose and laye with him. And he perceaved it not: nether when she laye downe nether when she rose vp.
