And he appeared to him Yahweh at [the] great trees of Mamre and he [was] sitting [the] opening of the tent when [the] heat of the day.
2 Tango Abrayami atombolaki miso, amonaki mibali misato pene na ye. Mpe tango kaka amonaki bango, atelemaki wuta na ndako na ye ya kapo mpe akendeki mbangu mpo na kokutana na bango; bongo agumbamaki kino na mabele.
And he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! three men [were] standing with him and he saw and he ran to meet them from [the] opening of the tent and he bowed down [the] ground towards.
3 Alobaki: — Nabondeli bino, bankolo na ngai, soki nazwi ngolu na miso bino, boleka mosali na bino te.
And he said Lord my if please I have found favor in view your may not please you pass by from with servant your.

So let me bring a piece of bread and sustain heart your (after *L(S)*) you will pass on for since you have passed by at servant your and they said thus you will do just as you have said.
6 Abrayami akotaki na lombangu na ndako na ye ya kapo mpe alobaki na Sara: « Kamata katini misato ya farine mpe sala bagato na lombangu. »
And he hurried Abraham the tent towards to Sarah and he said bring quickly three seahs flour fine flour knead [it] and make bread cakes.
7 Mpe Abrayami apotaki mbangu na lopango ya bibwele, azwaki mwana ngombe ya mafuta mpe apesaki yango na mosali na ye mpo ete alamba yango noki-noki.
And to the herd he ran Abraham and he took a young one of [the] herd tender and good and he gave [it] to the servant and he hurried to prepare it.

And he brought curd and milk and [the] young one of the herd which he had prepared and he set [it] before them and he [was] standing with them under the tree and they ate.
9 Sima, batunaki ye: — Wapi Sara, mwasi na yo? Abrayami azongisaki: — Azali na ndako.
And they said to him where? [is] Sarah wife your and he said there! in the tent.
10 Bongo moko kati na bango alobaki: — Solo, na mobu oyo ezali koya, kaka na eleko oyo, nakozonga epai na yo, mpe Sara, mwasi na yo, akozala na mwana mobali. Nzokande, Sara ayokaki maloba wana na ekotelo ya ndako ya kapo, na sima ya Abrayami.
And he said certainly I will return to you about the time living and there! a son [will belong] to Sarah wife your and Sarah [was] listening [the] opening of the tent and it [was] behind him.
11 Abrayami mpe Sara bazalaki mibange, mpo ete bakomaki na mibu ebele penza mpe Sara azalaki lisusu na makoki te ya kobota.
And Abraham and Sarah [were] old [having] come in days it had ceased to be to Sarah a way like women.
12 Sara asekaki mpe amilobelaki: « Awa nasili konuna boye, nakoki lisusu koyoka posa ya mobali? Kutu nkolo na ngai akomi mpe mobange! »
And she laughed Sarah in inner being her saying after am worn out I has it be[longed]? to me pleasure and lord my he is old.
13 Yawe alobaki na Abrayami: — Mpo na nini Sara aseki mpe alobi: « Nakoki solo kobota mwana awa nasili kokoma mobange? »
And he said Yahweh to Abraham why? this did she laugh Sarah saying ¿ also really will I bear a child and I I am old.
14 Boni, ezali na eloko oyo Yawe akoki kolembana? Na mobu oyo ezali koya, na tango oyo ekatama, kaka na eleko oyo, nakozonga epai na yo, mpe Sara akozala na mwana mobali.
¿ Is it [too] difficult for Yahweh anything to the appointed time I will return to you about the time living and [will belong] to Sarah a son.
15 Sara abangaki; boye awanganaki: — Naseki te. Kasi Yawe alobaki: — Ezali ya solo, oseki.
And she denied Sarah - saying not I laughed for - she was afraid and he said - In-deed you laughed.

And Abraham certainly he will become a nation great and mighty and they will be blessed by him all [the] nations of the earth.
19 Pamba te naponaki ye mpo ete ateya bana na ye mpe ndako na ye sima na ye ete bayeba kobatela nzela ya Yawe na kozalaka na etamboli ya malamu mpe ya sembo; na bongo nde, Ngai Yawe, nakokokisela Abrayami elaka oyo napesaki ye. »
For I have known him so that that he may command children his and household his after him and they will keep [the] way of Yahweh by doing righteousness and justice so that will bring Yahweh on Abraham [that] which he has spoken on him.
20 Bongo Yawe alobaki: « Nayoki sango ete mabe ya bato ya Sodome mpe ya Gomore eleki ndelo, mpe masumu na bango eleki mingi penza.
And he said Yahweh [the] outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah for it is great and sin their that it is heavy exceedingly.
21 Nakokita mpo na kotala soki makambo oyo bazali kosala ekokani na oyo Ngai nayoki. Soki ezali bongo te, nakoyeba. »
I will go down please so I may see ¿ according to outcry its that has come to me have they done - completion and if not I will know.

And they turned away from there the men and they went Sodom towards (and Abraham *L(S)*) still [was] he standing before (Yahweh. *L(S)*)
23 Bongo Abrayami apusanaki mpe alobaki: — Boni, Nkolo na ngai, okoboma penza elongo moto ya sembo mpe moto mabe?
And he drew near Abraham and he said ¿ also will you sweep away [the] righteous with [the] wicked.
24 Soki bato ya sembo bazali tuku mitano kati na engumba, okoboma bango kaka? Okolimbisa engumba yango te mpo na bato ya sembo tuku mitano oyo bazali kati na yango?
Perhaps there [are] fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city ¿ also will you sweep [it] away and not will you forgive? the place for [the] sake of fifty the righteous [people] who [are] in midst its.
25 Te, okoki kosala likambo ya boye te! Okoki te koboma elongo bato ya sembo mpe bato mabe, okoki kosala ndenge moko te na bato ya sembo mpe na bato mabe. Okoki kosala bongo te! Boni, Mosambisi ya mokili mobimba akosambisa na bosembo te?
Far be it to you from doing - according to the manner this to put to death [the] righteous with [the] wicked and it will be as the righteous [person] as the wicked [person] far be it to you ¿ [the] judge of all the earth not will he do justice.

And he said Yahweh if I will find in Sodom fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city and I will forgive all the place for sake of them.
27 Abrayami alobaki lisusu: — Solo, nazali na ngai moto pamba mpe putulu, kasi limbisa ete nameka kosolola na Nkolo na ngai.
And he answered Abraham and he said here! please I have undertaken to speak to [the] Lord and I [am] dust and ash[es].
28 Bongo soki motango na bato ya sembo ezali tuku minei na mitano? Boni, okobebisa engumba mobimba mpo na bato mitano oyo bazangi? Yawe azongisaki: — Soki nakuti bato ya sembo tuku minei na mitano, nakobebisa yango te.
Perhaps they will lack! fifty the righteous [people] five ¿ will you destroy for five all the city and he said not I will destroy [it] if I will find there forty and five.

And he repeated again to speak to him and he said perhaps they will be found! there forty and he said not I will do [it] for sake of the forty.

And he said may not please it burn to [the] Lord and let me speak only this time perhaps they will be found! there ten and he said not I will destroy [it] for sake of the ten.
33 Sima na Yawe kosolola na Abrayami, akendeki; mpe Abrayami azongaki na ndako na ye.
And he went Yahweh just as he had finished to speak to Abraham and Abraham he returned to place his.
