UGenesisi 19
1 Ingilosi ezimbili zasezifika eSodoma sekuhlwile. LoLothi wayehlezi esangweni leSodoma. Kwathi uLothi ezibona, wasukuma ukuzihlangabeza, wathi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini;
A AHIAHI iho la, hiki aku la na anela elua ma Sodoma: a noho iho la o Lota ma ka ipuka o Sodoma: ike aku la o Lota, ku ae la ia e halawai me lakou, a kulou iho la kona mau maka ilalo ma ka honua;
2 wasesithi: Khangelani-ke makhosi ami, ngicela liphendukele endlini yenceku yenu, lilale ubusuku, ligeze inyawo zenu, beselivuka ngovivi, lihambe indlela yenu. Zathi-ke: Hatshi, kodwa sizalala endleleni.
I aku la, E kuu mau haku, ke noi aku nei au ia olua, e kipa mai olua maloko o ka hale o ka olua kauwa nei, e moe no a ao ka po, a e holoi i ko olua wawae, a kakahiaka nui e ala'e olua a e hele aku. I mai la laua, Aole, e moe no maua ma ke alanui a ao ka po.
3 Wasezincenga kakhulu zaze zaphendukela kuye zangena endlini yakhe; wazenzela idili, wapheka isinkwa esingelamvubelo, zasezisidla.
Koi ikaika aku la ia ia laua; a kipa ae la laua io na la, a komo aku la iloko o kona hale; a hana iho no ia i ahaaina na laua, pulehu iho la i ka palaoa huole, a ai iho la laua.
4 Zingakalali, amadoda omuzi, amadoda eSodoma, azingelezela indlu, kusukela komutsha kusiya komdala, bonke abantu bevela ephethelweni lomuzi.
Aole laua i moe iho, a o na kanaka o ke kulanakauhale, o na kanaka o Sodoma, o ka poe kahiko a me ka poe hou, o na kanaka a pau mai o a o, hoopuni mai la lakou i ka hale:
5 Asembiza uLothi athi kuye: Angaphi amadoda afike kuwe lobubusuku? Akhuphele phandle kithi ukuze siwazi.
Kahea mai la lakou ia Lota, i mai la ia ia, Auhea na kanaka i hele mai i ou la i keia po? E kai mai ia laua iwaho io makou nei, i ike makou ia laua.
6 ULothi wasephumela kuwo emnyango, wavala umnyango ngemva kwakhe.
Hele aku la o Lota iwaho ma ka puka io lakou la; a papani ae la i ka puka mahope ona.
7 Wathi: Ngiyacela bazalwane, lingenzi okubi.
I aku la, E na hoahanau, ke nonoi aku nei au ia oukou, mai hana hewa oukou.
8 Khangelani-ke, ngilamadodakazi amabili, angakazi indoda; ake ngilikhuphele wona, beselisenza kuwo njengokuhle emehlweni enu; kodwa kulamadoda lingenzi lutho, ngoba yikho engene emthunzini wophahla lwami.
Eia hoi ia'u na kaikamahine elua i ike ole i ke kane; e ae mai oukou ia'u e lawe mai ia laua iwaho io oukou nei, a e hana aku oukou ia laua i ka mea pono ma ko oukou maka: aka, mai hana aku oukou i kekahi mea i keia mau kanaka; no ka mea, nolaila laua i hele mai nei ma ka malumalu o kuu hale.
9 Kodwa athi: Xekela le. Athi njalo: Yena lo yedwa wafika engowezizwe, kambe ngeqiniso angaba ngumahluleli? Khathesi sizakwenza okubi kuwe okwedlula wona. Acindezela kakhulu indoda uLothi, asondela ukuze afohloze isivalo.
I mai la lakou, E hookaawale oe. I ae la hoi lakou, I hele mai no oia nei e noho wale maanei, a e lilo ana ka ia i lunakanawai: ano hoi, e oi aku ka makou hana ino ana ia oe i ko laua la. A hookeke nui mai la lakou i ua kanaka nei, ia Lota, a neenee mai la e wawahi i ka pani puka.
10 Kodwa lawomadoda elula isandla sawo, amngenisa uLothi kuwo endlini, avala umnyango.
Aka, lalau aku la ua mau kanaka la ia Lota, a huki mai laua ia ia iloko o ka hale io laua la, a papani aku la i ka puka.
11 Asetshaya amadoda ayesemnyango wendlu ngobuphofu, kusukela komncinyane kusiya komkhulu, aze adinwa yikudinga umnyango.
Hoomakapo iho la laua i ka poe kanaka iwaho o ka puka o ka hale, i na mea uuku a me na mea nui: a hoopauaho lakou ia lakou iho i ka imi i ka puka.
12 Amadoda asesithi kuLothi: Useselobani lapha? Umkhwenyana lamadodana akho lamadodakazi akho, laye wonke olaye emzini, mkhuphe kulindawo,
I mai la laua ia Lota, Aole anei ia oe kekahi poe e ae maanei? o ka hunonakane paha, o na keikikane au, a me au mau kaikamahine, a o na mea a pau ia oe, e laweia'ku iwaho o keia wahi:
13 ngoba sizabhubhisa lindawo, ngoba isikhalo sabo sikhulu phambi kweNkosi; njalo iNkosi isithumile ukuthi siyibhubhise.
No ka mea, e luku aku maua i keia wahi, no ka nui loa ae o ka leo no lakou, imua o ke alo o Iehova; a ua hoouna mai no o Iehova ia maua e luku aku ia wahi.
14 ULothi wasephuma, wakhuluma labakhwenyana bakhe ababezathatha amadodakazi akhe, wathi: Sukumani liphume kulindawo; ngoba iNkosi izabhubhisa umuzi. Kodwa waba njengosomayo emehlweni abakhwenyana bakhe.
Hele aku la o Lota iwaho, olelo aku la i kona mau hunonakane i mare me na kaikamahine ana, i aku la, E ala'e, e holo aku iwaho o keia wahi; no ka mea, e luku mai ana o Iehova i neia kulanakauhale. Aka, ua like ia i ka manao o na hunonakane me ka mea hoomaewaewa.
15 Kwathi emadabukakusa, ingilosi zamcindezela uLothi, zisithi: Suka, uthathe umkakho lamadodakazi akho womabili atholakalayo, hlezi ubhujiswe ebubini bomuzi.
I ka wanaao, hoolalelale ua mau anela la ia Lota, i mai la, E ala ae, e lawe i kau wahine, a me kau mau kaikamahine elua maanei, o pau auanei oe iloko o ka make o ko ke kulanakauhale.
16 Kodwa esazilazila, amadoda abamba isandla sakhe, lesandla somkakhe, lesandla samadodakazi akhe womabili, ngoba iNkosi ilomusa kuye, asemkhupha, ambeka ngaphandle komuzi.
Ia ia i hookaulua ai, lalau aku la ua mau kanaka la i kona lima, me ka lima o kana wahine, a me ka lima o kana mau kaikamahine elua; ahonui mai la o Iehova ia ia: alakai aku la laua ia ia, a hookuu aku la iwaho o ke kulanakauhale.
17 Kwasekusithi esebakhuphele ngaphandle, yathi: Baleka ngenxa yempilo yakho, ungakhangeli ngemva kwakho, ungemi egcekeni lonke; balekela entabeni hlezi ubhujiswe.
I ka wa i alakai aku ai laua ia lakou iwaho o ke kulanakauhale, alaila i mai la ia, E holo i pakele kou ola; mai nana i hope ou, mai kali oe ma neia wahi papu a pau; e holo i ka mauna, o make oe.
18 ULothi wasesithi kuwo: Kakungabi njalo, Nkosi yami.
I aku la o Lota ia laua, Auwe! e kuu Haku, aole pela.
19 Khangela-ke, inceku yakho ithole umusa emehlweni akho, ukhulisile isihawu sakho, osenze kimi, ukugcina uphila umphefumulo wami; kodwa mina ngingeke ngiphephele entabeni, hlezi ububi bunamathele kimi, besengisifa.
Eia hoi, ua loaa iho nei i kau kauwa ka lokomaikai imua o kou mau maka, a ua hoonui ae nei oe i kou aloha au i hoike mai ai ia'u i ka hoola ana mai ia'u, aole e hiki ia'u ke holo ma ka mauna, o loaa ia'u ka poino, a make au.
20 Khangela-ke, lumuzi useduze ukubalekela kuwo; futhi umncinyane. Ngicela ngibalekele kuwo (kambe kawumncinyane?) lomphefumulo wami uphile.
Eia ae ke kulanakauhale, e hiki koke ke holo malaila, a ua liilii hoi ia; ea, e ae mai ia'u e holo malaila, (aole anei ia he wahi liilii?) a e malamaia kuu ola.
21 Yasisithi kuye: Khangela, ngibemukele ubuso bakho lakulolu udaba, ukuze ngingawuchithi umuzi okhulume ngawo.
I mai la kela ia ia, Aia, ua hoolohe aku no au i keia mea hoi; aole au e luku aku ia kulanakauhale, no ka mea au i olelo mai ai.
22 Phangisa, balekela kuwo; ngoba ngingeze ngenza ulutho uze ufike kuwo. Ngakho babiza ibizo lomuzi ngokuthi yiZowari.
E wikiwiki oe e holo ilaila; no ka mea, aole e hiki ia'u ke hana i kekahi mea, a puka aku no oe ilaila. Nolaila, ua kapaia ka inoa o ia kulanakauhale, o i Zoara.
23 Ilanga laseliphumile phezu komhlaba lapho uLothi engena eZowari.
Ua puka mai ka la maluna o ka honua i ke komo ana o Lota iloko o Zoara.
24 INkosi yasinisa phezu kweSodoma laphezu kweGomora isibabule lomlilo, kuvela eNkosini kuvela emazulwini.
Alaila, hooua mai la o Iehova maluna o Sodoma i ka luaipele a me ke ahi mai o Iehova la, mai ka lani mai.
25 Yasibhubhisa leyomizi legceke lonke, labo bonke ababehlala emizini, lokuhlumayo komhlaba.
Hookahuli iho la oia ia mau kulanakauhale, a me kahi papu a pau, a me na kanaka a pau o ua mau kulanakauhale la, a me na mea ulu ma ka honua.
26 Kodwa umkakhe wakhangela emuva engemuva kwakhe, wasesiba yinsika yetshwayi.
Aka, nana ae la kana wahine mahope ona, a lilo iho la ia i kukulu paakai.
27 UAbrahama wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, waya endaweni lapho ayemi khona phambi kweNkosi.
Ala ae la o Aberahama i kakahiaka nui, a hoi hou aku la ia i kahi ana i ku ai imua o Iehova:
28 Wasekhangela phansi ngaseSodoma leGomora langasemhlabathini wonke wegceke, wabona, njalo khangela, intuthu yathunqa emhlabeni njengentuthu yesithando.
Nana aku la ia ma Sodoma a me Gomora, a ma ka aina papu a pau, ike aku la ia, aia hoi, pii ae la ka uahi o ia aina iluna, e like me ka punohu o ka lua ahi.
29 Kwasekusithi uNkulunkulu esebhubhisile imizi yegceke uNkulunkulu wamkhumbula uAbrahama, wamkhokhela uLothi emkhupha phakathi kwencithakalo, mhla ebhubhisa imizi ayehlala kuyo uLothi.
A i ka wa a ke Akua i luku ai i na kulanakauhale o ka papu, hoomanao iho la no ke Akua ia Aberahama, a hoopakele ae la ia Lota maiwaena aku o ka hookahuli ana, ia ia i hookahuli ai i na kulanakauhale kahi a Lota i noho ai.
30 ULothi wasesenyuka esuka eZowari, wahlala entabeni, lamadodakazi akhe womabili laye, ngoba wayesesaba ukuhlala eZowari; wahlala obhalwini, yena lamadodakazi akhe womabili.
Pii ae la o Lota mailoko aku o Zoara, a noho iho la ma ka mauna, a me ia pu na kaikamahine ana elua; no ka mea, makau iho la ia ke noho ma Zoara: noho no ia ma kekahi ana, oia a me kana mau kaikamahine elua.
31 Endala yasisithi kwencinyane: Ubaba usemdala, njalo kakulandoda emhlabeni ukungena kithi, ngokwendlela yomhlaba wonke.
I aku la ka hanau mua i kona kaikaina, Ea, ua elemakule ko kana makuakane, aole hoi he kanaka ma ka honua nei a pau nana e komo mai io kaua nei, e like me ka nana ana a ko ka honua nei:
32 Woza simnathise ubaba iwayini, silale laye sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
Ina kaua, o hooinu kaua i ko kaua makuakane i ka waina, a e moe kaua me ia, i malama ai kana i hua na ko kaua makuakane.
33 Asemnathisa uyise iwayini ngalobobusuku; endala yasingena yalala loyise, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
Hooinu laua ia po i ko laua makuakane i ka waina: a komo aku la ka hanau mua iloko, a moe iho la me kona makuakane: aole nae i ike kela i kona wa i moe iho ai, aole hoi kona wa i ala'i.
34 Kwasekusithi ngosuku olulandelayo endala yathi kwencinyane: Khangela, bengilele lobaba ngobusuku obedlulileyo; asimnathise iwayini langalobubusuku, ubusungena ulale laye, ukuze sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
A ia la ae, i aku la ka hanau mua i ke kaikaina, Aia hoi, moe iho no au me kuu makuakane i ka po nei: e hooinu kaua ia ia i ka waina i keia po no hoi; a e komo aku oe iloko, e moe me ia, i malama ai kana i hua na ko kana makuakane.
35 Asemnathisa uyise iwayini langalobobusuku; lencinyane yasukuma yalala laye, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
Hooinu laua i ko laua makuakane i ka waina ia po no hoi: a ku ae la ke kaikaina, a moe iho la me ia; aole kela i ike i kona wa i moe iho ai, aole hoi i kona wa i ala ai.
36 Ngokunjalo amadodakazi womabili kaLothi athatha izisu kuyise.
Hapai na kaikamahine elua a Lota na ko laua makuakane.
37 Endala yasizala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguMowabi; lowo nguyise wamaMowabi kuze kube lamuhla.
Hanau mai la ka mua i keikikane, a kapa iho la i kona inoa o Moaba: oia ke kupuna o ka Moaba a hiki i keia manawa.
38 Lencinyane layo yazala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguBenami; lowo nguyise wabantwana bakoAmoni kuze kube lamuhla.
A hanau mai la hoi ka muli iho i keikikane, a kapa iho la i kona inoa o Benami: oia ke kupuna o ka Amona a hiki i keia manawa.
