Kejadian 19
1 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,
And the two angels came to Sodom at even. And Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. And Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them; and he bowed down, the face toward the ground,
2 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."
and he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and lodge, and wash your feet; and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, No; but we will pass the night in the open place.
3 Lot memohon dengan sangat, dan akhirnya mereka masuk bersama dia ke dalam rumahnya. Lot menyediakan hidangan lezat dan memanggang roti secukupnya, lalu makanlah mereka.
And he urged them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house. And he made them a repast, and baked unleavened cakes; and they ate.
4 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.
Before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, from the youngest to the oldest — all the people from every quarter.
5 Mereka berseru kepada Lot, dan bertanya, "Di mana orang-orang yang datang bermalam di rumahmu? Serahkan mereka, supaya kami dapat bercampur dengan mereka!"
And they called to Lot, and said to him, Where are the men that have come in to thee to-night? bring them out to us that we may know them.
6 Lot keluar dari rumahnya, dan sesudah menutup pintu,
And Lot went out to them to the entrance, and shut the door after him,
7 ia berkata kepada orang-orang Sodom itu, "Saudara-saudara, saya minta dengan sangat, janganlah melakukan hal yang sejahat itu!
and said, I pray you, my brethren, do not wickedly!
8 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."
Behold now, I have two daughters who have not known a man: let me now bring them out to you; and do to them as is good in your sight: only, to these men do nothing; for therefore have they come under the shadow of my roof.
9 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.
And they said, Back there! And they said [again], This one came to sojourn, and he must be a judge? Now we will deal worse with thee than with them. And they pressed hard on the man — on Lot; and drew near to break the door.
10 Tetapi kedua tamu itu mengulurkan tangan mereka dan menarik Lot masuk ke dalam rumah, lalu menutup pintu.
And the men stretched out their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.
11 Mereka membutakan semua orang yang ada di luar rumah itu, sehingga orang-orang itu tidak dapat menemukan pintu itu lagi.
And they smote the men that were at the entrance of the house with blindness, from the smallest to the greatest; and they wearied themselves to find the entrance.
12 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,
And the men said to Lot, Whom hast thou here besides? a son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and all whom thou hast in the city — bring [them] out of the place.
13 sebab kota ini akan kami musnahkan. TUHAN telah mendengar tuduhan-tuduhan berat terhadap penduduk di sini, dan kami telah diutusnya untuk menumpas kota Sodom."
For we are going to destroy this place, because the cry of them is great before Jehovah, and Jehovah has sent us to destroy it.
14 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.
And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, Up, go out of this place, for Jehovah will destroy the city. But he was as if he jested, in the sight of his sons-in-law.
15 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."
And as the dawn arose, the angels urged Lot, saying, Up, take thy wife and thy two daughters who are present, lest thou perish in the iniquity of the city.
16 Lot bimbang. Tetapi TUHAN merasa kasihan kepadanya; karena itu kedua tamunya menuntun Lot dan istrinya serta kedua anaknya ke luar kota.
And as he lingered, the men laid hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, Jehovah being merciful to him; and they led him out, and set him without the city.
17 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!"
And it came to pass when they had brought them outside, that he said, Escape for thy life: look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain: escape to the mountain, lest thou perish.
18 Tetapi Lot menjawab, "Aduh, Tuan jangan suruh kami lari ke pegunungan.
And Lot said to them, Not [so], I pray thee, Lord;
19 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.
behold now, thy servant has found favour in thine eyes, and thou hast magnified thy goodness, which thou hast shewn to me in preserving my soul alive; but I cannot escape to the mountain, lest calamity lay hold on me, that I die.
20 Lihat, di depan itu ada kota kecil yang tidak begitu jauh. Izinkan saya lari ke sana supaya selamat."
Behold now, this city is near to flee to, and it is small: I pray thee, let me escape thither — is it not small? — and my soul shall live.
21 Malaikat itu menjawab, "Baiklah, kota kecil itu tak akan kutumpas.
And he said to him, Behold, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou hast spoken.
22 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.
Haste, escape thither; for I cannot do anything until thou art come there. Therefore the name of the city is called Zoar.
23 Matahari sedang terbit ketika Lot sampai di Zoar.
The sun rose upon the earth when Lot came to Zoar.
24 Tiba-tiba TUHAN menurunkan hujan belerang yang berapi atas Sodom dan Gomora.
And Jehovah rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven,
25 Kedua kota itu dihancurkan, juga seluruh lembah dan semua tumbuh-tumbuhan serta semua penduduk di situ.
and overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew upon the ground.
26 Tetapi istri Lot menoleh ke belakang, lalu dia berubah menjadi tiang garam.
And his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 Keesokan harinya, pagi-pagi, Abraham cepat-cepat pergi ke tempat ia berdiri di hadapan TUHAN sehari sebelumnya.
And Abraham rose early in the morning [and went] to the place where he had stood before Jehovah;
28 Ia memandang ke arah Sodom dan Gomora dan ke seluruh lembah, dan melihat asap mengepul dari tanah itu, seperti asap dari tungku raksasa.
and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and lo, a smoke went up from the land as the smoke of a furnace.
29 Demikianlah, ketika Allah membinasakan kota-kota itu di lembah di mana Lot tinggal, Allah ingat kepada Abraham dan menolong Lot melarikan diri.
And it came to pass when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.
30 Karena Lot takut menetap di Zoar, maka pergilah ia ke pegunungan bersama-sama dengan kedua anaknya perempuan, lalu tinggal di dalam sebuah gua.
And Lot went up from Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar. And he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
31 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.
And the first-born said to the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the land to come in to us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Mari, kita buat ayah mabuk, lalu kita tidur dengan dia supaya kita mendapat anak."
come, let us give our father wine to drink, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed alive of our father.
33 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.
And they gave their father wine to drink that night. And the first-born went in, and lay with her father, and he did not know of her lying down, nor of her rising.
34 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."
And it came to pass on the next day that the first-born said to the younger, Lo, I lay last night with my father: let us give him wine to drink to-night also, and go thou in, lie with him, that we may preserve seed alive of our father.
35 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.
And they gave their father wine to drink that night also. And the younger arose, and lay with him; and he did not know of her lying down, nor of her rising.
36 Lalu mengandunglah kedua anak Lot itu karena ayah mereka sendiri.
And both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
37 Anak yang sulung melahirkan anak laki-laki yang dinamakannya Moab. Dia menjadi leluhur orang Moab yang sekarang.
And the first-born bore a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites to this day.
38 Anak yang kedua melahirkan anak laki-laki juga yang dinamakannya Ben-Ami. Dia menjadi leluhur bangsa Amon yang sekarang.
And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi; the same is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
