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 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 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 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 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 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 Liboso ete bakende kolala, mibali nyonso ya engumba Sodome, bilenge mpe mibange, bawutaki bipai na bipai mpe bayaki kozingela ndako.
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 Babelelaki Loti: — Wapi mibali oyo bayaki epai na yo na butu oyo? Bimisela biso bango mpo ete tosangisa na bango nzoto.
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 Loti abimaki mpo na kosolola na bango; akangaki ekuke sima na ye.
And Lot goes out to them, to the opening, and the door has shut behind him,
7 Alobaki: — Te, baninga na ngai, bosala mabe te!
and says, “Please, my brothers, do not do evil;
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.
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 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 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 Kasi mibali oyo bazalaki kati na ndako babimisaki maboko mpe babendaki Loti na kati ya ndako mpe bakangaki ekuke.
And the men put forth their hand, and bring in Lot to them, into the house, and have shut the door;
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 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 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 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 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 are destroying this place, for their cry has been great [before] the face of YHWH, and YHWH does send 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 Kasi Loti azongisaki: — Te, nkolo na ngai, tika ete esalema bongo te!
And Lot says to 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.
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 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!
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 Anjelu alobaki na ye: — Malamu mingi, nakokokisela yo lisusu bosenga oyo. Nakobebisa te engumba oyo ozali kolobela.
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 Kasi kima noki, pamba te nakoki kosala eloko moko te soki okomi nanu kuna te. Yango wana babengaka engumba yango Tsoari.
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 Loti akomaki na Tsoari tango tongo etanaki.
The sun has gone out on the earth, and Lot has entered into Zoar,
24 Boye wuta na likolo, Yawe anokisaki mvula ya moto makasi ya fofolo, na sodome mpe na Gomore.
and YHWH has rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah brimstone and fire from YHWH, from the heavens;
25 Abebisaki bingumba yango, etando nyonso elongo na bato nyonso oyo bazalaki kovanda kuna mpe banzete nyonso.
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 Kasi mwasi ya Loti atalaki na sima mpe akomaki ekeko ya mungwa.
And his wife looks from behind him, and she becomes a pillar of salt!
27 Na tongo makasi, Abrayami amataki na esika oyo atelemaki liboso ya Yawe;
And Abraham rises early in the morning to the place where he has stood [before] the face of YHWH;
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 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 Boye, tango Nzambe abebisaki bingumba ya etando, akanisaki Abrayami mpe abikisaki Loti na likama oyo atindelaki bingumba epai wapi Loti azalaki kovanda.
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 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 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 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 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 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, we cause our father to drink wine, and lie with him, and preserve a seed from 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 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 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 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 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 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 Boye bana basi oyo mibale ya Loti bakomaki na zemi ya tata na bango.
And the two daughters of Lot conceive from 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 firstborn bears a son and calls his name Moab: he [is] father of Moab to 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.
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.
