< Ebandeli 19 >

1 Ba-anjelu oyo mibale bakomaki na Sodome na pokwa. Wana Loti avandaki na ekuke, amonaki bango, akendeki koyamba bango mpe afukamaki elongi kino na mabele.
And the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom; and when Lot saw them he rose up to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground.
2 Alobaki na bango: — Nabondeli bino, bankolo na ngai, boya na ndako ya mosali na bino. Bokoki kosukola kuna makolo na bino mpe kolekisa butu, bongo na tongo, bokoki kokoba mobembo na bino. Bazongiselaki ye: — Te, tokolala kaka libanda.
And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye can rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 Kasi Loti abondelaki bango mingi; boye bandimaki kokende na ye elongo mpe bakotaki na ndako na ye. Alambelaki bango bilei ya kitoko, atumbaki mapa ezanga levire mpe baliaki.
And he pressed upon them greatly, and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 Liboso ete bakende kolala, mibali nyonso ya engumba Sodome, bilenge mpe mibange, bawutaki bipai na bipai mpe bayaki kozingela ndako.
But before they had lain down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
5 Babelelaki Loti: — Wapi mibali oyo bayaki epai na yo na butu oyo? Bimisela biso bango mpo ete tosangisa na bango nzoto.
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men who came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 Loti abimaki mpo na kosolola na bango; akangaki ekuke sima na ye.
And Lot went out unto them, at the entrance [of the house], and shut the door after him.
7 Alobaki: — Te, baninga na ngai, bosala mabe te!
And he said, I pray you, my brethren, do not act wickedly.
8 Boyoka! Nazali na bana basi mibale oyo bayebi nanu nzoto ya mibali te. Tika ete namemela bino bango libanda! Bosala bango nyonso oyo bolingi. Kasi bosala bato oyo eloko moko te mpo ete bayei kovanda na ndako na ngai.
Behold now, I have two daughters who have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes, only unto these men do nothing, since they have once come under the shadow of my roof.
9 Bazongisaki: — Longwa wana. Balobaki lisusu: — Botala moto oyo, ayaki awa lokola mopaya; sik’oyo alingi komikomisa mosambisi. Tokosala yo mabe koleka bango. Bongo batindikaki Loti na makasi mpe bapusanaki pene ya ekuke mpo na koluka kobuka yango.
And they said, Stand back. And they said, This one man came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge; now will we deal worse with thee than with them. And they pressed sorely upon the man Lot, and they came near to break the door.
10 Kasi mibali oyo bazalaki kati na ndako babimisaki maboko mpe babendaki Loti na kati ya ndako mpe bakangaki ekuke.
But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot to them into the house, and the door they locked.
11 Bakangaki miso ya bato nyonso oyo bazalaki na ekuke ya ndako, ezala bilenge to mibange; boye bazalaki lisusu komona ekuke te.
And the men that were at the entrance of the house they smote with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the entrance.
12 Mibali yango mibale balobaki na Loti: — Ozali lisusu na moto mosusu na engumba oyo, ndakisa: mibali ya bana na yo ya basi, bana na yo ya mibali mpe ya basi to mpe ndeko mosusu? Bimisa bango libanda ya esika oyo
And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? a son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring out of this place.
13 mpo ete tolingi kobebisa yango. Sango ya makambo mabe ya bato oyo ekomi kino epai na Yawe; yango wana Yawe atindi biso mpo na kobebisa engumba oyo.
For we will destroy this place, because the cry against them is waxed great before the face of the Lord; and the Lord hath sent us to destroy it.
14 Boye Loti abimaki mpe akendeki koyebisa babandami ya mabala ya bana na ye ya basi. Alobaki: « Bosala noki mpe bobima na esika oyo, pamba te Yawe alingi kobebisa engumba oyo! » Kasi babandami ya mabala ya bana na ye ya basi bakanisaki ete azali kosala maseki.
And Lot went out and spoke unto his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, and said, Arise, get yourselves out of this place, for the Lord will destroy this city; but he seemed as one that jesteth in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
15 Tango kaka tongo etanaki, ba-anjelu batungisaki Loti mpe balobaki: — Sala noki, kamata mwasi na yo mpe bana na yo mibale ya basi oyo bazali awa; soki te, bokobebisama tango engumba oyo ekozwa etumbu.
And as the morning dawn arose, the angels urged Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters that are here, lest thou be consumed for the iniquity of the city.
16 Lokola azalaki kowumela, mibali yango bakangaki na makasi loboko na ye, maboko ya mwasi mpe ya bana na ye ya basi; mpe bamemaki bango na libanda ya engumba, pamba te Yawe ayokelaki bango mawa.
And while he yet lingered, the men laid hold of his hand, and of the hand of his wife, and of the hand of his two daughters, because the Lord desired to spare him; and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
17 Tango kaka babimisaki bango na libanda, moko kati na mibali yango alobaki: — Bokima mpo ete bobikisa bomoi na bino! Botala sima te mpe botelema ata esika moko te kati na engumba oyo! Bokima na likolo ya bangomba, noki te bokobebisama!
And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.
18 Kasi Loti azongisaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai, tika ete esalema bongo te!
And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my lord!
19 Mosali na yo azwi ngolu na miso na yo, mpe otalisi ngai bolamu makasi na ndenge obikisi bomoi na ngai. Kasi nakokoka te kokima na likolo ya bangomba, noki te likama ekokomela ngai mpe nakokufa.
Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy eyes, and thou hast magnified thy kindness, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest the evil overtake me, and I die.
20 Tala, ezali na engumba moko pene awa mpo na kokimela, yango ezali penza moke. Tika ngai nakimela kuna atako ezali moke mpo ete nabikisa bomoi na ngai!
Behold now, this city is near to flee thereunto, and it is little; oh, let me, I pray thee, escape thither, [as it is but little, ] that my life may be saved.
21 Anjelu alobaki na ye: — Malamu mingi, nakokokisela yo lisusu bosenga oyo. Nakobebisa te engumba oyo ozali kolobela.
And he said unto him, See, I have favored thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, of which thou hast spoken.
22 Kasi kima noki, pamba te nakoki kosala eloko moko te soki okomi nanu kuna te. Yango wana babengaka engumba yango Tsoari.
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do any thing till thou hast come thither. Therefore was the name of the city called Zoar.
23 Loti akomaki na Tsoari tango tongo etanaki.
The sun rose over the earth, when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 Boye wuta na likolo, Yawe anokisaki mvula ya moto makasi ya fofolo, na sodome mpe na Gomore.
And the Lord rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire, from the Lord, out of heaven;
25 Abebisaki bingumba yango, etando nyonso elongo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna mpe banzete nyonso.
And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 Kasi mwasi ya Loti atalaki na sima mpe akomaki ekeko ya mungwa.
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 Na tongo makasi, Abrayami amataki na esika oyo atelemaki liboso ya Yawe;
And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before the Lord:
28 atalaki na ngambo ya Sodome mpe ya Gomore, mpe na ngambo ya mokili ya etando; amonaki molinga makasi komata wuta na mokili lokola molinga ya fulu monene ya moto.
And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and lo, smoke went up from the earth as the smoke of a furnace.
29 Boye, tango Nzambe abebisaki bingumba ya etando, akanisaki Abrayami mpe abikisaki Loti na likama oyo atindelaki bingumba epai wapi Loti azalaki kovanda.
And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot away out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot had dwelt.
30 Loti mpe bana na ye mibale ya basi babimaki na Tsoari, bakendeki kovanda na bangomba, pamba te azalaki kobanga kotikala kuna. Ye elongo na bana na ye mibale ya basi bakendeki kovanda kati na lidusu ya libanga.
And Lot went up out of 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 Mokolo moko, kulutu alobaki na leki na ye: « Tata na biso akomi mobange, mpe na etuka oyo, mobali oyo akosangisa na biso nzoto ndenge esalemaka na mokili mobimba, azali te.
And the first-born said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the country to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Tika ete tomelisa tata na biso masanga ya vino mpe tosangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete, na nzela ya tata na biso, libota na biso ebunga te. »
Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33 Na butu wana, bazwaki masanga ya vino mpe bamelisaki tata na bango. Boye kulutu akendeki mpe asangisaki nzoto na tata na ye, mpe tata na ye atikalaki koyeba likambo yango te, ezala tango mwana na ye ya mwasi akendeki epai na ye to tango alongwaki.
And they made their father drink wine that night; and the first-born went in, and lay with her father, and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 Mokolo oyo elandaki, kulutu alobaki na leki: « Na butu oyo ewuti koleka, nasangisaki nzoto na tata na ngai. Tika ete topesa ye lisusu masanga ya vino na butu ya lelo, mpe yo okokende kosangisa na ye nzoto mpo ete, na nzela ya tata na biso, libota na biso ebunga te. »
And it came to pass on the morrow, that the first-born said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father; let us make him drink wine this night also, and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
35 Na butu wana lisusu, bazwaki masanga ya vino mpe bamelisaki tata na bango; bongo leki akendeki mpe asangisaki nzoto na tata na ye. Tata na ye atikalaki kaka koyeba likambo yango te, ezala tango mwana na ye ya mwasi akendeki epai na ye to tango alongwaki.
And they made their father drink wine that night also; and the younger arose, and lay with him, and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36 Boye bana basi oyo mibale ya Loti bakomaki na zemi ya tata na bango.
And both the daughters of Lot became with child by their father.
37 Kulutu abotaki mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Moabi; » azali tata ya ekolo ya Moabi, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
And the first-born bore a son, and called his name Moab; the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
38 Leki mpe abotaki lisusu mwana mobali mpe apesaki ye kombo « Beni-Ami; » azali tata ya ekolo ya Amoni, kino na mokolo ya lelo.
And the younger, she also bore a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
