< Mose 1 19 >
1 Gbe ma gbe ke ƒe fiẽ la, mawudɔla eveawo va ɖo Sodom ƒe agbo nu, eye Lot nɔ afi ma ɣe ma ɣi. Esi Lot kpɔ wo la, etsi tsitre be yeakpe wo, eye wòdo dzaa na wo.
Ingilosi ezimbili zasezifika eSodoma sekuhlwile. LoLothi wayehlezi esangweni leSodoma. Kwathi uLothi ezibona, wasukuma ukuzihlangabeza, wathi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini;
2 Egblɔ na wo be, “Nye amegãwo, miva dze gbɔnye le zã sia me, eye miaklɔ miaƒe afɔwo ŋu. Miate ŋu ayi miaƒe mɔzɔzɔ dzi etsɔ ŋdi kanya.” Wogblɔ be, “Ao, akpe na wò, míadzudzɔ le ablɔ dzi le afi sia ko.”
wasesithi: Khangelani-ke makhosi ami, ngicela liphendukele endlini yenceku yenu, lilale ubusuku, ligeze inyawo zenu, beselivuka ngovivi, lihambe indlela yenu. Zathi-ke: Hatshi, kodwa sizalala endleleni.
3 Ke Lot ƒoe ɖe wo nu va se ɖe esime woyi eƒe aƒe me, eye wòɖo kplɔ̃ gã aɖe na wo kple abolo si wowɔ teti kple amɔ maʋamaʋã. Esi woɖu nu vɔ,
Wasezincenga kakhulu zaze zaphendukela kuye zangena endlini yakhe; wazenzela idili, wapheka isinkwa esingelamvubelo, zasezisidla.
4 eye wodi be yewoaɖo xɔ la, Sodom ŋutsuwo, ɖekakpuiwo kple ame tsitsiwo siaa tso dua ƒe akpa sia akpa va ƒo xlã aƒe la,
Zingakalali, amadoda omuzi, amadoda eSodoma, azingelezela indlu, kusukela komutsha kusiya komdala, bonke abantu bevela ephethelweni lomuzi.
5 eye woɖe gbe na Lot be, “Kplɔ ŋutsu mawo vɛ na mí be míadɔ kpli wo.”
Asembiza uLothi athi kuye: Angaphi amadoda afike kuwe lobubusuku? Akhuphele phandle kithi ukuze siwazi.
6 Lot tu ʋɔ ɖe amedzroawo nu, eye wòyi wo gbɔ
ULothi wasephumela kuwo emnyango, wavala umnyango ngemva kwakhe.
7 ɖaɖe kuku na wo be, “Nɔvinyewo, migawɔ nu baɖa sia tɔgbi o.
Wathi: Ngiyacela bazalwane, lingenzi okubi.
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.”
Khangelani-ke, ngilamadodakazi amabili, angakazi indoda; ake ngilikhuphele wona, beselisenza kuwo njengokuhle emehlweni enu; kodwa kulamadoda lingenzi lutho, ngoba yikho engene emthunzini wophahla lwami.
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.
Kodwa athi: Xekela le. Athi njalo: Yena lo yedwa wafika engowezizwe, kambe ngeqiniso angaba ngumahluleli? Khathesi sizakwenza okubi kuwe okwedlula wona. Acindezela kakhulu indoda uLothi, asondela ukuze afohloze isivalo.
10 Ke mawudɔla eveawo ʋu ʋɔa, do asi ɖa, he Lot va xɔa me, tu ʋɔa,
Kodwa lawomadoda elula isandla sawo, amngenisa uLothi kuwo endlini, avala umnyango.
11 eye wona Sodomtɔwo ƒe ŋkuwo dzi tsyɔ sẽe, ale be womegate ŋu kpɔ ʋɔtru la o.
Asetshaya amadoda ayesemnyango wendlu ngobuphofu, kusukela komncinyane kusiya komkhulu, aze adinwa yikudinga umnyango.
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,
Amadoda asesithi kuLothi: Useselobani lapha? Umkhwenyana lamadodana akho lamadodakazi akho, laye wonke olaye emzini, mkhuphe kulindawo,
13 elabena míele du sia tsrɔ̃ ge keŋkeŋ. Nutsotso tso teƒe sia ŋu va ɖo dziƒo, eya ta Yehowa ɖo mí ɖa be míatsrɔ̃e.”
ngoba sizabhubhisa lindawo, ngoba isikhalo sabo sikhulu phambi kweNkosi; njalo iNkosi isithumile ukuthi siyibhubhise.
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.
ULothi wasephuma, wakhuluma labakhwenyana bakhe ababezathatha amadodakazi akhe, wathi: Sukumani liphume kulindawo; ngoba iNkosi izabhubhisa umuzi. Kodwa waba njengosomayo emehlweni abakhwenyana bakhe.
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.”
Kwathi emadabukakusa, ingilosi zamcindezela uLothi, zisithi: Suka, uthathe umkakho lamadodakazi akho womabili atholakalayo, hlezi ubhujiswe ebubini bomuzi.
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.
Kodwa esazilazila, amadoda abamba isandla sakhe, lesandla somkakhe, lesandla samadodakazi akhe womabili, ngoba iNkosi ilomusa kuye, asemkhupha, ambeka ngaphandle komuzi.
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.”
Kwasekusithi esebakhuphele ngaphandle, yathi: Baleka ngenxa yempilo yakho, ungakhangeli ngemva kwakho, ungemi egcekeni lonke; balekela entabeni hlezi ubhujiswe.
18 Lot gblɔ na wo be, “O, nye Aƒetɔwo, meɖe kuku na mi.
ULothi wasesithi kuwo: Kakungabi njalo, Nkosi yami.
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.
Khangela-ke, inceku yakho ithole umusa emehlweni akho, ukhulisile isihawu sakho, osenze kimi, ukugcina uphila umphefumulo wami; kodwa mina ngingeke ngiphephele entabeni, hlezi ububi bunamathele kimi, besengisifa.
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.”
Khangela-ke, lumuzi useduze ukubalekela kuwo; futhi umncinyane. Ngicela ngibalekele kuwo (kambe kawumncinyane?) lomphefumulo wami uphile.
21 Mawudɔlawo dometɔ ɖeka gblɔ be, “Enyo, mexɔ wò nya la, eye nyematsrɔ̃ du sue ma o.
Yasisithi kuye: Khangela, ngibemukele ubuso bakho lakulolu udaba, ukuze ngingawuchithi umuzi okhulume ngawo.
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.)
Phangisa, balekela kuwo; ngoba ngingeze ngenza ulutho uze ufike kuwo. Ngakho babiza ibizo lomuzi ngokuthi yiZowari.
23 Ɣe nɔ dzedzem esi Lot ɖo Zoar.
Ilanga laseliphumile phezu komhlaba lapho uLothi engena eZowari.
24 Tete Yehowa na dzo kple aŋɔ xɔdzo dza tso dziƒo ɖe Sodom kple Gomora dzi,
INkosi yasinisa phezu kweSodoma laphezu kweGomora isibabule lomlilo, kuvela eNkosini kuvela emazulwini.
25 gblẽ wo kple du gã kple du sue siwo nɔ gbadzaƒe la, eye amewo, atiwo kple lãwo siaa tsrɔ̃ keŋkeŋ.
Yasibhubhisa leyomizi legceke lonke, labo bonke ababehlala emizini, lokuhlumayo komhlaba.
26 Ke Lot srɔ̃ nye kɔ kpɔ megbe, eye wòtrɔ zu dzekɔ.
Kodwa umkakhe wakhangela emuva engemuva kwakhe, wasesiba yinsika yetshwayi.
27 Gbe ma gbe ŋdi la, Abraham fɔ kaba, eye wòɖe abla yi teƒe si wòtsi tsitre ɖe Yehowa ƒe ŋkume le la.
UAbrahama wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, waya endaweni lapho ayemi khona phambi kweNkosi.
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.
Wasekhangela phansi ngaseSodoma leGomora langasemhlabathini wonke wegceke, wabona, njalo khangela, intuthu yathunqa emhlabeni njengentuthu yesithando.
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.
Kwasekusithi uNkulunkulu esebhubhisile imizi yegceke uNkulunkulu wamkhumbula uAbrahama, wamkhokhela uLothi emkhupha phakathi kwencithakalo, mhla ebhubhisa imizi ayehlala kuyo uLothi.
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.
ULothi wasesenyuka esuka eZowari, wahlala entabeni, lamadodakazi akhe womabili laye, ngoba wayesesaba ukuhlala eZowari; wahlala obhalwini, yena lamadodakazi akhe womabili.
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.
Endala yasisithi kwencinyane: Ubaba usemdala, njalo kakulandoda emhlabeni ukungena kithi, ngokwendlela yomhlaba wonke.
32 Na míana mía fofo nano wain amu, eye wòadɔ mía gbɔ, ale be míate ŋu adzi vi, eye míaƒe dzidzime nu matso o.”
Woza simnathise ubaba iwayini, silale laye sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
33 Ale wona wain wo fofo wòno hemu. Nyɔnuvi tsitsitɔ yi ɖamlɔ fofoa gbɔ, eye fofoa dɔ kplii, gake fofoa menya o.
Asemnathisa uyise iwayini ngalobobusuku; endala yasingena yalala loyise, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
34 Le ŋdi me la, nyɔnuvi tsitsitɔ gblɔ na nɔvia be, “Medɔ fofonye gbɔ le zã si va yi la me. Na míagana ahae wòagano amu, eye wò hã nàyi aɖamlɔ egbɔ, ale be míaƒe ƒome la nadzi ɖe edzi.”
Kwasekusithi ngosuku olulandelayo endala yathi kwencinyane: Khangela, bengilele lobaba ngobusuku obedlulileyo; asimnathise iwayini langalobubusuku, ubusungena ulale laye, ukuze sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
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.
Asemnathisa uyise iwayini langalobobusuku; lencinyane yasukuma yalala laye, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
36 Ale nɔvi eveawo fɔ fu na wo fofo Lot.
Ngokunjalo amadodakazi womabili kaLothi athatha izisu kuyise.
37 Nyɔnuvi tsitsitɔ dzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Moab; eyae nye Moab dukɔa tɔgbui.
Endala yasizala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguMowabi; lowo nguyise wamaMowabi kuze kube lamuhla.
38 Nyɔnuvi suetɔ hã dzi ŋutsuvi, eye wòna ŋkɔe be Ben Ami; eyae nye Amonitɔwo tɔgbui.
Lencinyane layo yazala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguBenami; lowo nguyise wabantwana bakoAmoni kuze kube lamuhla.
