< 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
And two of the messengers come toward Sodom at evening, and Lot is sitting at the gate of Sodom, and Lot sees, and rises to meet them, and bows himself—face to the earth,
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.”
and he says, “Now behold, my lords, please turn aside to the house of your servant, and lodge, and wash your feet—then you have risen early and gone on your way”; and they say, “No, but we lodge in the broad place.”
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.
And he presses on them greatly, and they turn aside to him, and come into his house; and he makes a banquet for them, and has baked unleavened things; and they eat.
4 Meet liki mwet fahsr luo inge motulla, mukul in acn Sodom nukewa tuku raunela lohm sac — kewana mwet fusr ac mwet matu.
Before they lie down, the men of the city—men of Sodom—have surrounded the house, from young even to aged, all the people from the extremity;
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.”
and they call to Lot and say to him, “Where [are] the men who have come to you tonight? Bring them out to us, and we know them.”
6 Lot el illa nu likinuma, ac kaleang srungul ah.
And Lot goes out to them, to the opening, and the door has shut behind him,
7 El fahk nu selos, “Nunak munas, nga kwafe suwos, nimet oru kain ouiya koluk se inge!
and says, “Please, my brothers, do not do evil;
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.”
now behold, I have two daughters who have not known anyone; please let me bring them out to you, and do to them as [is] good in your eyes; only do nothing to these men, for therefore they have come in within the shadow of my roof.”
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.
And they say, “Come near here”; they also say, “This one has come to sojourn, and he certainly judges! Now, we do evil to you more than [to] them”; and they press against the man, against Lot greatly, and come near to break the door.
10 Tusruktu mukul luo ah saplakla ololak Lot nu in lohm ah, ac kaleang srungul ah.
And the men put forth their hand, and bring in Lot to them, into the house, and have shut the door;
11 Na eltal konela mutun mwet nukewa likinuma, oru elos in tia ku in konauk mutunoa uh.
and the men who [are] at the opening of the house they have struck with blindness, from small even to great, and they weary themselves to find the opening.
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,
And the men say to Lot, “Whom have you here still? Son-in-law, your sons also, and your daughters, and all whom you have in the city, bring out from this place;
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.”
for we are destroying this place, for their cry has been great [before] the face of YHWH, and YHWH does send 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.
And Lot goes out and speaks to his sons-in-law, those taking his daughters, and says, “Rise, go out from this place, for YHWH is destroying the city”; and he is as [one] mocking in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
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.”
And when the dawn has ascended, then the messengers press on Lot, saying, “Rise, take your wife, and your two daughters who are found present, lest you are consumed in the iniquity of the city.”
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.
And he lingers, and the men lay hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, through the mercy of YHWH to him, and they bring him out, and cause him to rest outside the city.
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.”
And it comes to pass, when he has brought them outside, that he says, “Escape for your life; do not look behind you, nor stand in all the circuit; escape to the mountain, lest you are consumed.”
18 A Lot el fahk, “Mo, nunak munas, tari tia angan.
And Lot says to them, “Oh not [so], my lord;
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.
now behold, your servant has found grace in your eyes, and you make great your kindness which you have done with me by saving my life, and I am unable to escape to the mountain, lest the evil cleave [to] me and I have died;
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.”
now behold, this city [is] near to flee there, and it [is] little; please let me escape there (is it not little?) that my soul may live.”
21 El topuk, “Kwal aok, nga insese. Nga ac tia kunausla siti srisrik sacn.
And he says to him, “Behold, I have also accepted your face for this thing, without overthrowing the city [for] which you have spoken;
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.
hurry, escape there, for I am not able to do anything until your entering there”; therefore he calls the name of the city Zoar.
23 Faht ah takak ke pacl se Lot el sun acn Zoar.
The sun has gone out on the earth, and Lot has entered into Zoar,
24 In kitin pacl ah na LEUM GOD El ukuiya sulfur firir oana af uh nu fin acn Sodom ac Gomorrah
and YHWH has rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah brimstone and fire from YHWH, from the heavens;
25 ac kunausla acn we, oayapa infalfal uh nufon, wi mwet nukewa we ac ma nukewa ma kapak fin acn we.
and He overthrows these cities, and all the circuit, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which is shooting up from the ground.
26 Tusruktu mutan kial Lot ah tapulla, ac el ekla nu ke sru in sohl soko.
And his wife looks from behind him, and she becomes 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.
And Abraham rises early in the morning to the place where he has stood [before] the face of YHWH;
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.
and he looks on the face of Sodom and Gomorrah, and on all the face of the land of the circuit, and sees, and behold, the smoke of the land went up as smoke of the 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.
And it comes to pass, in God’s destroying the cities of the circuit, that God remembers Abraham, and sends Lot out of the midst of the overthrow in the overthrowing of the cities in which Lot dwelt.
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.
And Lot goes up out of Zoar, and dwells in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he has been afraid of dwelling in Zoar, and he dwells in a cave, he and 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.
And the firstborn says to the younger, “Our father [is] old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us, as [is] the way of all the earth;
32 Tari, kut kitalya papa elan sruhila, na kut ona yorol ac orek tulik kacl.”
come, we cause our father to drink wine, and lie with him, and preserve a seed from our father.”
33 In fong sac eltal kitalya ke wain, ac acn matu sac ona yorol. Tusruktu Lot el tiana etu mweyen el arulana sruhila.
And they cause their father to drink wine on that night; and the firstborn goes in and lies with her father, and he has not known in her lying down or in her rising 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.”
And it comes to pass, on the next day, that the firstborn says to the younger, “Behold, I have lain with my father last night: we also cause him to drink wine tonight, then go in, lie with him, and we preserve a seed from our father.”
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.
And they cause their father to drink wine on that night also, and the younger rises and lies with him, and he has not known in her lying down or in her rising up.
36 Eltal oru ouinge, na acn luo natul Lot kewana pututuyak sin papa tumaltal ah.
And the two daughters of Lot conceive from their father,
37 Oasr wen se nutin tamtael matu sac, ac el sang inel Moab. El pa papa tumun mwet Moab nwe misenge.
and the firstborn bears a son and calls his name Moab: he [is] father of Moab to this day.
38 Tamtael fusr sac oasr pac wen se natul, su el sang inel Benammi. El pa papa tumun mwet Ammon nwe misenge.
As for the younger, she has also born a son and calls his name Ben-Ammi: he [is] father of the sons of Ammon to this day.
