UGenesisi 19
1 Ingilosi ezimbili zasezifika eSodoma sekuhlwile. LoLothi wayehlezi esangweni leSodoma. Kwathi uLothi ezibona, wasukuma ukuzihlangabeza, wathi mbo ngobuso emhlabathini;
Ɔsoro abɔfoɔ baanu no duruu Sodom anwummerɛ. Na Lot te kuro no ɛpono ano. Ɛberɛ a Lot hunuu sɛ wɔreba no, ɔsɔre kɔhyiaa wɔn ɛkwan. Ɔbuu nkotodwe, de nʼanim butuu fam, nam so maa wɔn akwaaba.
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.
Ɔkaa sɛ, “Me wuranom, mesrɛ mo, mommɛsoɛ mo akoa fie, na memma mo nsuo nhohoro mo nan ho, na monna, na ɔkyena anɔpatutuutu, moatoa mo akwantuo no so.” Nanso, abɔfoɔ no buaa sɛ, “Dabi, mmom, yɛbɛda adwabɔeɛ.”
3 Wasezincenga kakhulu zaze zaphendukela kuye zangena endlini yakhe; wazenzela idili, wapheka isinkwa esingelamvubelo, zasezisidla.
Nanso, Lot kɔɔ so srɛɛ wɔn anibereɛ so enti, wɔne no kɔɔ ne fie. Ɔtoo burodo a wamfa mmɔreka amfra ɛda no ara, de too wɔn ɛpono, ma wɔdiiɛ.
4 Zingakalali, amadoda omuzi, amadoda eSodoma, azingelezela indlu, kusukela komutsha kusiya komdala, bonke abantu bevela ephethelweni lomuzi.
Ansa na wɔbɛkɔ akɔda no, Sodomfoɔ mpanin ne mmɔfra nyinaa firi kuro no afanan bɛtwaa efie no ho hyiaeɛ.
5 Asembiza uLothi athi kuye: Angaphi amadoda afike kuwe lobubusuku? Akhuphele phandle kithi ukuze siwazi.
Wɔteateaam frɛɛ Lot bisaa no sɛ, “Mmarima a wɔbaa wo nkyɛn anadwo yi wɔ he? Fa wɔn brɛ yɛn, na yɛne wɔn nkɔda.”
6 ULothi wasephumela kuwo emnyango, wavala umnyango ngemva kwakhe.
Lot firii adi, too ne ɛpono mu, kɔhyiaa Sodom mmarima no.
7 Wathi: Ngiyacela bazalwane, lingenzi okubi.
Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Me nuanom, mesrɛ mo, monnyɛ amumuyɛsɛm a ɛte saa.
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.
Montie! Mewɔ mmammaa baanu a wɔnhunuu mmarima da. Momma memfa wɔn mmrɛ mo, na deɛ mopɛ biara, moayɛ wɔn. Na saa mmarima baanu yi deɛ, mommfa mo nsa nka wɔn, ɛfiri sɛ, wɔaba me suhyɛ banbɔ mu.”
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.
Ɛdɔm no teateaam sɛ, “Twe wo ho! Woyɛ hwan? Yɛn na yɛama wo baabi atena wɔ ha, na afei deɛ worebɛkyerɛ yɛn deɛ yɛnyɛ. Yɛne wo bɛdi no anibereɛ so asene nkurɔfoɔ no.” Ɛdɔm no twi faa Lot so, na wɔhyɛɛ aseɛ bubuu apono no.
10 Kodwa lawomadoda elula isandla sawo, amngenisa uLothi kuwo endlini, avala umnyango.
Nanso, ɔsoro abɔfoɔ baanu a wɔhyɛ efie hɔ no pue bɛtwee Lot kɔhyɛɛ efie hɔ, too ɛpono no mu.
11 Asetshaya amadoda ayesemnyango wendlu ngobuphofu, kusukela komncinyane kusiya komkhulu, aze adinwa yikudinga umnyango.
Ɔsoro abɔfoɔ baanu no maa mpanin ne mmɔfra a wɔgyinagyina ɛpono no akyiri no ani firafiraeɛ enti, wɔanhunu ɛpono no koraa.
12 Amadoda asesithi kuLothi: Useselobani lapha? Umkhwenyana lamadodana akho lamadodakazi akho, laye wonke olaye emzini, mkhuphe kulindawo,
Afei, ɔsoro abɔfoɔ baanu no bisaa Lot sɛ, “Wowɔ abusuafoɔ bi wɔ kurom ha sɛ ɛyɛ wo nsenom, wo mmammaa, wo mmammarima anaa obi foforɔ bi a ɔyɛ wo ho onipa? Yi wɔn nyinaa firi ha,
13 ngoba sizabhubhisa lindawo, ngoba isikhalo sabo sikhulu phambi kweNkosi; njalo iNkosi isithumile ukuthi siyibhubhise.
ɛfiri sɛ, yɛrebɛsɛe saa kuro yi pasaa. Amumuyɛsɛm a ɛtia nnipa yi a aduru Awurade anim no ano den enti, wasoma yɛn sɛ yɛmmɛsɛe kuro yi.”
14 ULothi wasephuma, wakhuluma labakhwenyana bakhe ababezathatha amadodakazi akhe, wathi: Sukumani liphume kulindawo; ngoba iNkosi izabhubhisa umuzi. Kodwa waba njengosomayo emehlweni abakhwenyana bakhe.
Enti, Lot firii adi, kɔbɔɔ mmarima bi a wɔahyɛ bɔ sɛ wɔbɛwareware ne mmammaa no amaneɛ. Ɔka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Monyɛ no ntɛm, na momfiri kuro yi mu, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade Onyankopɔn rebɛsɛe kuro yi!” Nanso, na saa mmarima yi susu sɛ ɔredi fɛ bi.
15 Kwathi emadabukakusa, ingilosi zamcindezela uLothi, zisithi: Suka, uthathe umkakho lamadodakazi akho womabili atholakalayo, hlezi ubhujiswe ebubini bomuzi.
Anɔpahema no, ɔsoro abɔfoɔ no hyɛɛ Lot sɛ, “Ntɛm! Ka wo ho, na fa wo yere ne wo mmammaa baanu a wɔwɔ ha no firi ha kɔ; anyɛ saa a, wɔde mo bɛfra kuro no, asɛe mo.”
16 Kodwa esazilazila, amadoda abamba isandla sakhe, lesandla somkakhe, lesandla samadodakazi akhe womabili, ngoba iNkosi ilomusa kuye, asemkhupha, ambeka ngaphandle komuzi.
Ɔtwentwɛnee ne nan ase no, ɔsoro abɔfoɔ no sosɔɔ Lot ne ne yere ne ne mmammaa baanu no nsa, twee wɔn, de wɔn firii kuro no mu asomdwoeɛ mu, ɛfiri sɛ, Awurade hunuu wɔn mmɔbɔ.
17 Kwasekusithi esebakhuphele ngaphandle, yathi: Baleka ngenxa yempilo yakho, ungakhangeli ngemva kwakho, ungemi egcekeni lonke; balekela entabeni hlezi ubhujiswe.
Ɔsoro abɔfoɔ no yii Lot mmammaa baanu no firii kuro no mu ara pɛ, abɔfoɔ no mu baako kaa sɛ, “Monnwane nnye mo kra nkwa; monnhwɛ mo akyiri. Monnnyina baabiara. Monnwane nkɔ mmepɔ no so, anyɛ saa a, mobɛwuwu!”
18 ULothi wasesithi kuwo: Kakungabi njalo, Nkosi yami.
Nanso, Lot ka kyerɛɛ wɔn sɛ, “Ao, dabi me wuranom!
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.
Mo akoa anya mo anim adom, na moayɛ me adɔeɛ kɛseɛ de agye me nkwa. Nanso, me deɛ, merentumi nnwane nkɔ mmepɔ no so, ɛfiri sɛ, mesuro sɛ anhwɛ a, saa amanehunu yi bɛto me, ama mawu.
20 Khangela-ke, lumuzi useduze ukubalekela kuwo; futhi umncinyane. Ngicela ngibalekele kuwo (kambe kawumncinyane?) lomphefumulo wami uphile.
Hwɛ, kuro ketewa bi bɛn ha. Mesrɛ mo, momma menkɔhinta hɔ mmom, na manhwere me nkwa. Kuro no nsua anaa?”
21 Yasisithi kuye: Khangela, ngibemukele ubuso bakho lakulolu udaba, ukuze ngingawuchithi umuzi okhulume ngawo.
Ɔsoro abɔfoɔ no ka kyerɛɛ Lot sɛ, “Ɛyɛ, mepene wʼabisadeɛ yi so; merensɛe saa kuro ketewa no.
22 Phangisa, balekela kuwo; ngoba ngingeze ngenza ulutho uze ufike kuwo. Ngakho babiza ibizo lomuzi ngokuthi yiZowari.
Ɛnneɛ, dwane kɔ hɔ ntɛm, ɛfiri sɛ, sɛ wonnuruu hɔ a, merenyɛ biribiara.” Ɛfiri saa ɛberɛ no, na wɔfrɛɛ kuro no Soar a aseɛ ne kuro ketewa.
23 Ilanga laseliphumile phezu komhlaba lapho uLothi engena eZowari.
Ɛberɛ a Lot duruu Soar no, na owia apue.
24 INkosi yasinisa phezu kweSodoma laphezu kweGomora isibabule lomlilo, kuvela eNkosini kuvela emazulwini.
Afei, Awurade maa sɔfe ne ogya tɔ firii soro, guu Sodom ne Gomora so.
25 Yasibhubhisa leyomizi legceke lonke, labo bonke ababehlala emizini, lokuhlumayo komhlaba.
Saa ɛkwan yi so na wɔfa de sɛee saa nkuropɔn mmienu ne asasetam no nyinaa. Nnipa a na wɔtete saa nkuropɔn no so ne asase no so afifideɛ nso nyinaa sɛeɛ.
26 Kodwa umkakhe wakhangela emuva engemuva kwakhe, wasesiba yinsika yetshwayi.
Nanso, Lot yere twaa nʼani hwɛɛ nʼakyiri ma ɔdanee nkyene esie.
27 UAbrahama wasevuka ekuseni kakhulu, waya endaweni lapho ayemi khona phambi kweNkosi.
Adeɛ kyee anɔpatutuutu no, Abraham kɔɔ baabi a ɔgyinaa Awurade anim no.
28 Wasekhangela phansi ngaseSodoma leGomora langasemhlabathini wonke wegceke, wabona, njalo khangela, intuthu yathunqa emhlabeni njengentuthu yesithando.
Ɔmaa nʼani so hwɛɛ Sodom ne Gomora fam ne asasetam no so nyinaa, hunuu wisie kumɔnn a abua asase no so te sɛ wisie a ɛfiri fononoo mu.
29 Kwasekusithi uNkulunkulu esebhubhisile imizi yegceke uNkulunkulu wamkhumbula uAbrahama, wamkhokhela uLothi emkhupha phakathi kwencithakalo, mhla ebhubhisa imizi ayehlala kuyo uLothi.
Ɛberɛ a Onyankopɔn sɛee nkuro a ɛwɔ asase tamaa no so no, Onyankopɔn kaee Abraham, na ɔyii Lot firii ɔsɛeɛ a ɛbaa nkuro a na Lot te so no mu no.
30 ULothi wasesenyuka esuka eZowari, wahlala entabeni, lamadodakazi akhe womabili laye, ngoba wayesesaba ukuhlala eZowari; wahlala obhalwini, yena lamadodakazi akhe womabili.
Afei, Lot ne ne mmammaa baanu no tu firii Soar kɔtenaa ɔbodan bi a na ɛwɔ mmepɔ no mu, ɛfiri sɛ, na ɔsuro sɛ ɔbɛtena Soar.
31 Endala yasisithi kwencinyane: Ubaba usemdala, njalo kakulandoda emhlabeni ukungena kithi, ngokwendlela yomhlaba wonke.
Ɛda koro bi, ɔbabaa panin no ka kyerɛɛ akumaa no sɛ, “Yɛn agya abɔ akɔkoraa, na ɔbarima biara nso nni ha a ɔne yɛn bɛda, sɛdeɛ wɔyɛ no ewiase baabiara no.
32 Woza simnathise ubaba iwayini, silale laye sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
Ne saa enti, ma yɛmma yɛn agya nsã nnom, na afei, yɛne no nna, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a yɛnam ne so bɛma yɛn ase adɔre.”
33 Asemnathisa uyise iwayini ngalobobusuku; endala yasingena yalala loyise, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
Saa anadwo no, wɔmaa wɔn agya nsã nomeeɛ. Na ɔbabaa panin no ne no kɔdaeɛ. Lot anhunu ɛberɛ korɔ a ne babaa panin no de bɛdaa hɔ ne ɛberɛ korɔ a ɔsɔre kɔeɛ.
34 Kwasekusithi ngosuku olulandelayo endala yathi kwencinyane: Khangela, bengilele lobaba ngobusuku obedlulileyo; asimnathise iwayini langalobubusuku, ubusungena ulale laye, ukuze sigcine iphila inzalo evela kubaba.
Adeɛ kyeeɛ no, ɔbabaa panin no ka kyerɛɛ akumaa no sɛ, “Nnora anadwo, me ne mʼagya daeɛ. Saa anadwo yi, ma yɛnsane mma no nsã nnom, na wo nso, wo ne no nkɔda, sɛdeɛ ɛbɛyɛ a yɛnam yɛn agya so bɛma yɛn ase adɔre.”
35 Asemnathisa uyise iwayini langalobobusuku; lencinyane yasukuma yalala laye, futhi kakwazanga ekulaleni kwayo lekusukeni kwayo.
Saa anadwo no nso, wɔmaa wɔn agya nsã nomeeɛ. Na akumaa no nso ne nʼagya kɔdaeɛ. Bio, Lot anhunu ɛberɛ ko a akumaa no de bɛdaa hɔ ne ɛberɛ ko a ɔsɔre kɔeɛ.
36 Ngokunjalo amadodakazi womabili kaLothi athatha izisu kuyise.
Enti, Lot ne ne mmammaa baanu no nyinsɛneeɛ.
37 Endala yasizala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguMowabi; lowo nguyise wamaMowabi kuze kube lamuhla.
Ne babaa panin no woo ɔbabarima, na ɔtoo no edin Moab. Ɔno na ɔyɛ Moabfoɔ agya de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
38 Lencinyane layo yazala indodana, yayitha ibizo yathi nguBenami; lowo nguyise wabantwana bakoAmoni kuze kube lamuhla.
Akumaa no nso woo ɔbabarima, na ɔtoo no edin Ben-Ami; ɔno nso ne Amon mma agya de bɛsi ɛnnɛ.
