Genesis 19
1 Ke lipufan luo ah tuku nu Sodom in eku sac, Lot el muta ke mutunpot in siti uh. Ke pacl se na el liyaltalak, el tuyak in paingultal. El pasrla ye mutaltal
The two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening. Lot happened to be sitting at the entrance to Sodom, and when he saw them he stood up to meet them, and bowed low with his face to the ground.
2 ac fahk, “Mwet kacto, nunak munas fahsru wiyu nu lohm ah. Komtal ku in ohlla niomtal ac mongla yorosr ofong. Lututang komtal fah sa tukakek ac fahsr nu yen komtal ac som nu we.” Tusruktu eltal topuk ac fahk, “Tari, kut ac mongla na pe inkanek uh ofong.”
“Sirs, please come and stay with me for the night,” he said. “You can wash your feet and then be on your way early in the morning.” They replied, “No, it's fine. We'll spend the night here in the square.”
3 El kwafeltal nwe ke na eltal tari welul som nu lohm sel. Lot el elyai mwet kulansap lal in munanla kutu flao ac akoo sie mongo na yuyu nu sin mwet fahsr inge. Ke akoeyukla tari, na elos mongoi.
But Lot insisted, and they went with him to his house. He made them a meal and baked bread for them to eat.
4 Meet liki mwet fahsr luo inge motulla, mukul in acn Sodom nukewa tuku raunela lohm sac — kewana mwet fusr ac mwet matu.
But they hadn't even gone to bed before the men of Sodom, young and old, from every part of town, came and surrounded the house.
5 Elos pangyak nu sel Lot ac siyuk, “Pia mukul luo ma tuku in mongla yurum ofong uh? Usaltalu nu yorosr! Kut ke ona yoroltal.”
They shouted out to Lot, “Where are the men who came to stay with you tonight? Bring them out here to us so we can have sex with them.”
6 Lot el illa nu likinuma, ac kaleang srungul ah.
Lot went out to talk to them in the doorway, closing the door behind him.
7 El fahk nu selos, “Nunak munas, nga kwafe suwos, nimet oru kain ouiya koluk se inge!
“My friends, please don't do such an evil thing!
8 Liye, oasr acn luo nutik su soenna etu mwet. Lela ngan usaltalu nu yuruwos, ac kowos ku in oru kutena ma kowos lungse oru nu seltal. Tusruktu nimet kowos oru kutena ma nu sin mukul luo inge. Eltal mwet fahsr nu in lohm sik, ac nga enenu in liyaltalang.”
Listen, I've got two virgin daughters. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do to them whatever you want, but please don't do anything to these men. It's my responsibility to look after them.”
9 Na elos fahk, “Tiok liki kut! Kom mwetsac se! Su kom an in fahk nu sesr ma kut in oru? Tiok! Kom fin tia som, kut ac oru in upa nu sum lukeltal.” Elos sinukunulla Lot ac kilukyang in kunausla srungul ah.
“Out of our way!” they shouted. “Who do you think you are, coming to live here and now trying to judge us? We'll do even worse things to you than we were going to do to these men!” They rushed forward at Lot and tried to break down the door.
10 Tusruktu mukul luo ah saplakla ololak Lot nu in lohm ah, ac kaleang srungul ah.
But the men inside reached out and grabbed Lot, dragged him inside, and slammed the door shut.
11 Na eltal konela mutun mwet nukewa likinuma, oru elos in tia ku in konauk mutunoa uh.
Then they made all the men in the doorway, young and old, suddenly go blind so they couldn't find the door.
12 Mukul luo ac fahk nu sel Lot, “Fin oasr kutena mwet lom saya yenu — wen, ku acn, ku wen talupom, ku kutena mwet lom su muta in siti uh — usalosla liki acn se inge,
The two men asked Lot, “Is there anyone else here who's part of your family—sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or anyone else in the town? If there are, make sure they leave,
13 mweyen kut ac kunausla siti se inge. LEUM GOD El lohng tukak na koluk lain mwet in acn se inge, oru El supwekutme in kunausla acn Sodom.”
because we are about to destroy this place. The complaints that have reached the Lord about its people have become so bad that he has sent us to destroy it.”
14 Na Lot el som nu yurin mukul luo ma acn natul ah akola in payuk se, ac fahk, “Tal sulaklak som liki acn se inge. LEUM GOD El ac kunausla acn uh.” Tusruktu eltal nunku mu el aksruksruk.
Lot went immediately to speak to the men who were engaged to marry his daughters. “Get up quickly and leave,” he said, “because the Lord is about to destroy the town!” But they thought it was just a joke.
15 Toang na in lotu se tok ah, lipufan luo ah srike in elyaelak Lot. Eltal fahk, “Aksaye! Eis mutan kiom ac acn luo nutum an ac som, tuh kowos in tia misa ke siti uh ac kunausyukla.”
At dawn, the angels begged Lot to be quick, telling him, “Hurry up! Leave right now with your wife and your two daughters here, otherwise you'll be wiped out when the city is punished.”
16 Lot el wetokla, tusruktu LEUM GOD El pakomutal. Ke ma inge mwet luo ah sruokya paol Lot ac mutan kial ac acn luo natul, ac kololosla nu likin siti uh.
But Lot hesitated. The men grabbed his hand, and those of his wife and two daughters, and dragged them along, leaving them outside the town. The Lord was kind to them to do this.
17 Na sie sin lipufan ah fahk, “Kasrusr, suk moul lomtal! Nikmet tapulla ac nikmet tui infalfal uh. Kaing nu fin inging uh, tuh kowos in tia misa.”
As soon as they were outside, one of the men said, “Run for your lives! Don't look back, and don't stop anywhere in the valley! Run to the mountains otherwise you'll be destroyed!”
18 A Lot el fahk, “Mo, nunak munas, tari tia angan.
“Please sir, not that!” Lot replied.
19 Yohk tari ma kom oru wo nu sik, ac lungkulang lom molela moul luk. Tusruktu inging uh arulana loesla nu inge. Mwe ongoiya ma ac sikyak inge ac ukweyuwi ac uniyuwi meet liki nga ku in sun acn we.
“If you don't mind, since you have already been so kind to me by saving my life, don't make me run to the mountains—I just can't make it. The destruction will overtake me and I'll die!
20 Kom liye siti srisrik se ingo? Fototo na. Lela nga in som nu we. Finne acn na srisrik se, nga ac ku in moulla we.”
Look, there's a town nearby that's close enough to run to, and it's so small. Please let me run there—it's really very small. It would save my life.”
21 El topuk, “Kwal aok, nga insese. Nga ac tia kunausla siti srisrik sacn.
“Fine—I'll do as you ask,” he replied. “I won't destroy this town you've mentioned.
22 Sulaklak! Kasrusr! Nga tia ku in oru kutena ma nwe ke na kom sun acn we.” Ke sripen Lot el pangon srik siti sac, pwanang pangpang acn we Zoar.
But hurry up and run there quickly, because I can't do anything until you get there.” (This is why the town was called Zoar.)
23 Faht ah takak ke pacl se Lot el sun acn Zoar.
The sun had already risen by the time Lot reached Zoar.
24 In kitin pacl ah na LEUM GOD El ukuiya sulfur firir oana af uh nu fin acn Sodom ac Gomorrah
Then the Lord rained down fire and burning sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.
25 ac kunausla acn we, oayapa infalfal uh nufon, wi mwet nukewa we ac ma nukewa ma kapak fin acn we.
He completely destroyed the towns and all their inhabitants, the whole valley and everything growing there.
26 Tusruktu mutan kial Lot ah tapulla, ac el ekla nu ke sru in sohl soko.
But Lot's wife, who was lagging behind, looked back, and she turned into a pillar of salt.
27 Toang na ke lotu toko ah, Abraham el sulaklak na som nu yen se el tuh tu ye mutun LEUM GOD we.
Abraham got up early the next morning and went back to where he had stood before the Lord.
28 El ngeta nu fin acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, ac nu infalfal sac nufon, ac liye kulasr fosryak liki acn we, oana fofosr ke sie funyu lulap.
He looked down at Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley floor, and saw the land burning, sending up smoke like from a furnace.
29 Tusruktu ke God El kunausla siti nukewa infalfal sac yen Lot el muta we, El nunku kacl Abraham, ac lela tuh Lot elan painmoulla.
When God destroyed the towns of the valley he didn't forget the promise he made Abraham, and he saved Lot from the destruction of the towns where Lot was living.
30 Ac ke sripen Lot el tuh sangeng in muta in acn Zoar, el ac acn luo natul utyak nu fin inging uh ac muta in luf se we.
Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, so he left town and went to live in a cave in the mountains with his two daughters.
31 Mutan se ma matu seltal el fahk nu sin tamtael lal, “Papa tumasr el munaslana, a wangin mukul fin faclu nufon in payuk sesr kut in ku in orek tulik.
Sometime later the older daughter said to the younger one, “Our father is growing old, and there's no men left to give us children like everyone does.
32 Tari, kut kitalya papa elan sruhila, na kut ona yorol ac orek tulik kacl.”
Come on, let's get our father drunk with wine and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
33 In fong sac eltal kitalya ke wain, ac acn matu sac ona yorol. Tusruktu Lot el tiana etu mweyen el arulana sruhila.
So they got their father drunk with wine that night. The older daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
34 Len tok ah, acn matu sac fahk nu sin tamtael lal, “Nga motulla yorol fong. Ofong kut sifilpa orala elan sruhila, na kom ona yorol. Na ac fah oasr fokin papa tumasr uh yorosr kewa.”
The next day the older daughter said to the younger one, “Last night I slept with our father. Let's get him drunk with wine again tonight and you can go and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
35 Ouinge in fong sac eltal sifilpa orala el sruhila, ac tamtael fusr sac ona yorol. Lot el tia pacna etu, mweyen el arulana sruhila.
So once again that night they got their father drunk with wine and the younger daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
36 Eltal oru ouinge, na acn luo natul Lot kewana pututuyak sin papa tumaltal ah.
This is how both Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
37 Oasr wen se nutin tamtael matu sac, ac el sang inel Moab. El pa papa tumun mwet Moab nwe misenge.
The older daughter had a son, and she called him Moab. He is the ancestor of the Moabites of today.
38 Tamtael fusr sac oasr pac wen se natul, su el sang inel Benammi. El pa papa tumun mwet Ammon nwe misenge.
The younger daughter had a son too, and she called him Ben-ammi. He is the ancestor of the Ammonites of today.
