उत्पत्ति 19
1 साँझमा लोत सदोमको मूल ढोकामा बसिरहेका बेला दुई स्वर्गदूतहरू सदोममा आए । उनीहरूलाई देखेपछि लोत भेट गर्न उठे, र आफ्नो मुहारलाई भुइँसम्मै निहुराएर दण्डवत् गरे ।
And the two angels came to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face to the earth;
2 तिनले भने “मेरा मालिक, म बिन्ती गर्दछु, कि आफ्नो दासको घरभित्र आउनुहोस्, आजको रात यहीँ बिताउनुहोस्, र आफ्ना पाउ धुनुहोस् । त्यसपछि बिहान सबेरै उठेर तपाईंहरू आफ्नो बाटो लाग्न सक्नुहुन्छ ।” उनीहरूले जवाफ दिए, “होइन, हामी सहरको चोकमा नै रात बिताउनेछौँ ।
and he said, Behold now, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early, and go on your way. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
3 तर तिनले उनीहरूलाई ज्यादै आग्रह गरे, त्यसैकारण उनीहरू तिनीसँगै घरभित्र प्रवेश गरे । तिनले भोजनमा खमिर नराखेको रोटी तयार गरे, र उनीहरूले खाए ।
And he urged them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
4 तर उनीहरू सुत्नअगि सदोम सहरका सबै युवा र जवान, र सहरका सबै भागबाट सबै मानिसहरू आएर त्यस घरलाई घेरे ।
But before they lay down, the men of the city, [even] the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both young and old, all the people from every quarter;
5 तिनीहरूले लोतलाई बोलाएर भने, “साँझ तिमीकहाँ आएका मानिसहरू कहाँ छन्? उनीहरूलाई बाहिर हामीकहाँ ल्याऊ, ताकि हामी तिनीहरूसँग सुत्न सकौँ ।”
and they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men that came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
6 यसैकारण लोत ढोकाबाट बाहिर मानिसहरूकहाँ निस्के र आफू निस्केपछि ढोका थुनिदिए ।
And Lot went out unto them to the door, and shut the door after him.
7 तिनले भने, “मेरा भाइहरू, म बिन्ती गर्दछु, यस्तो दुष्ट काम नगर्नुहोस् ।
And he said, I pray you, my brethren, do not so wickedly.
8 हेर्नुहोस्, मेरा दुई छोरी छन् जो कुनै मानिससँग सुतेका छैनन् । म बिन्ती गर्दछु, मेरा छोरीहरूलाई तपाईंहरूकहाँ ल्याउन दिनुहोस्, र तपाईंहरूको नजरमा जे असल लाग्छ तिनीहरूसँग त्यही गर्नुहोस् । केवल यी मानिसहरूलाई केही नगर्नुहोस्, किनभने उनीहरू मेरो छतको छायामुनि आएका पाहुना हुन् ।”
Behold now, I have two daughters that 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, forasmuch as they are come under the shadow of my roof.
9 तिनीहरूले भने, “पछि हट्!” तिनीहरूले यसो पनि भने, “यो यहाँ परदेशी भएर बस्न आएको थियो, र अहिले हाम्रो न्यायकर्ता भएको छ! अब हामी तिनीहरूलाई भन्दा तँलाई नराम्रो व्यवहार गर्नेछौँ ।” तिनीहरूले ती मानिसहरू र लोतको विरुद्धमा दबाब दिए, र ढोका भत्काउनको निम्ति नजिक आए ।
And they said, Stand back. And they said, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and drew near to break the door.
10 तर ती मानिसहरूले आफ्ना हात निकालेर लोतलाई तिनीहरूसँगै घरभित्र ताने र ढोका बन्द गरिदिए ।
But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
11 त्यसपछि लोतका पाहुनाहरूले घरको ढोकाबाहिर भएका मानिसहरू, जवान र वृद्ध दुवैलाई प्रहार गरी अन्धा बनाइदिए, र तिनीहरू ढोका खोज्ने प्रयास गर्दा-गर्दै थाके ।
And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
12 त्यसपछि ती मानिसहरूले लोतलाई भने, “के तिमीकहाँ अरू कोही छन्? जुवाइँ, छोराहरू, छोरीहरू, र यस सहरमा तिम्रा जो कोही छन्, सबैलाई यस सहरबाट बाहिर लैजाऊ ।
And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whomsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of the place:
13 किनभने हामीले यो ठाउँलाई नष्ट गर्न लागेका छौँ, किनभने परमप्रभुको अगि यस सहरको विरुद्धमा दोषहरू यति ठुला भएका छन्, कि उहाँले हामीलाई यस सहरलाई नष्ट पार्न पठाउनुभएको छ ।”
for we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxed great before Jehovah; and Jehovah hath sent us to destroy it.
14 लोत बाहिर गए, र तिनले आफ्ना छोरीहरूलाई विवाह गर्न प्रतिज्ञा गरेका जुवाइँहरूसँग यसो भने, “छिट्टै, यस ठाउँबाट निस्किहाल, किनभने परमप्रभुले यस सहरलाई नष्ट पार्न लाग्नुभएको छ ।” तर तिनका जुवाइँहरूलाई तिनले ठट्टा गरेझैँ लाग्यो ।
And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons-in-law, who married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for Jehovah will destroy the city. But he seemed unto his sons-in-law as one that mocked.
15 जब झिसमिसे बिहान भयो, ती स्वर्गदूतहरूले लोतलाई यसो भने, “जाऊ, यहाँ भएका तिम्री पत्नी र तिम्रा छोरीहरूलाई लैजाऊ, र यस सहरको दण्डमा तिमी नष्ट हुनेछैनौ ।”
And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters that are here, lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
16 तर तिनले अलमल गर्न थाले । त्यसैकारण ती मानिसहरूले लोत, तिनकी पत्नी, र तिनका दुई छोरीका हातहरू समाते, किनभने परमप्रभु तिनीप्रति दयालु हुनुहुन्थ्यो । उनीहरूले तिनीहरू सबैलाई बाहिर निकाले, र सहरबाहिर पठाए ।
But he lingered; and the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters, Jehovah being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
17 जब उनीहरूले तिनीहरूलाई बाहिर निकाले, ती मानिसहरूमध्ये एकजनाले भने, “आफ्नो प्राण बचाउनको निम्ति भाग! पछाडि फर्की नहेर, वा कतै समतल ठाउँमा नबस । पहाडहरूतिर भाग र तिमीहरू नष्ट हुनेछैनौ ।”
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 लोतले तिनीहरूलाई भने, “होइन, मेरा मालिकहरू!
And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my lord:
19 तपाईंका दृष्टिमा तपाईंको दासले कृपा पाएको छ, र मेरो प्राण बचाउनको निम्ति ममाथि तपाईंहरूले ठुलो दया देखाउनुभएको छ, तर म पहाडहरूतिर भाग्न सक्दिनँ, किनभने ममाथि विपत्ति आइलाग्नेछ र म मर्नेछु ।
behold now, thy servant hath found favor in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy lovingkindness, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die:
20 हेर्नुहोस्, त्यहाँको सहर भाग्नको निम्ति नजिक छ, र त्यो सानो पनि छ । कृपया, मलाई त्यहाँ भाग्न दिनुहोस् (के त्यो सानोचाहिँ होइन र?), र मेरो जीवन बच्नेछ ।”
behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape thither (is it not a little one?), and my soul shall live.
21 उनले तिनलाई भने, “ठिक छ, म तिम्रो यो अनुरोध पनि पुरा गर्नेछु र तिमीले उल्लेख गरेको त्यस सहर म नष्ट गर्दिनँ ।
And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou hast spoken.
22 छिटो गर! त्यहाँ भाग, किनभने तिमी त्यहाँ नपुगेसम्म म केही गर्न सक्दिनँ ।” यसैकारण त्यस सहरलाई सोअर भनियो ।
Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
23 लोत सोहर पुग्दा घाम उदाइसकेको थियो ।
The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot came unto Zoar.
24 त्यसपछि परमप्रभुले सदोम र गमोरामाथि आकाशबाट गन्धक र आगो बर्साउनुभयो ।
Then Jehovah rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven;
25 उहाँले ती सहरहरू, सबै समतल भूमि, र ती सहरहरूका बासिन्दाहरू, र भूमिमा उब्जेका सबै बिरुवाहरूलाई नष्ट पार्नुभयो ।
and he overthrew those cities, and all the Plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
26 तर लोतकी पत्नीले पछाडि फर्केर हेरिन्, जो तिनको पछि-पछि थिइन्, र तिनी नुनको ढिक्का बनिन् ।
But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
27 अब्राहाम बिहान सबेरै उठे र तिनी परमप्रभुको सामु उभिएको ठाउँमा गए ।
And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before Jehovah:
28 उनले सदोम र गमोरातर्फ र सबै समतल भूमिमा हेरे । उनले त्यस भूमिबाट भट्टीको धुवाँझैँ माथितिर धुवाँ आइरहेको देखे ।
and he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the Plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.
29 परमेश्वरले समतल भूमिका सहरहरूलाई नष्ट गर्नुभएपछि, उहाँले अब्राहामलाई सम्झनुभयो । उहाँले लोतले बसोबास गरेका सहरहरूलाई नष्ट गर्नुहुँदा, लोतलाई त्यस विनाशको माझबाट बाहिर निकाल्नुभयो ।
And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the Plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot dwelt.
30 तर लोत आफ्ना दुई छोरीसँग सोअरबाट पहाडहरूमा बसोबास गर्न गए, किनभने तिनी सोअरमा बस्न डराए । यसैकारण, तिनी र तिनका दुई छोरीहरू एउटा गुफामा बसे ।
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 जेठीले कान्छीलाई भनिन्, “हाम्रा बुबा वृद्ध भएका छन्, र सारा संसारको रीतिअनुसार हामीसँग सुत्ने कहीँ पनि कोही मानिस छैन ।
And the first-born said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 आऊ, हाम्रो बुबालाई मद्य पिउन लगाऔँ, अनि हाम्रो बुबाको वंशलाई बिस्तार गर्न हामी उहाँसँग सुतौँ ।”
come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
33 यसैकारण त्यस रात तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बुबालाई मद्य पिउन लगाए । त्यसपछि जेठीचाहिँ भित्र गइन् र आफ्ना बुबासँग सुतिन्; तिनी कहिले सुतिन् र कहिले उठिन् भन्ने उनलाई पत्तो नै भएन ।
And they made their father drink wine that night: and the first-born went in, and lay with her father; and he knew not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
34 अर्को दिन जेठीले कान्छीलाई भनिन्, “सुन, गएको रात म मेरो बुबासँग सुतेँ । आजको रातमा पनि उहाँलाई मद्य पिउन लगाऔँ, र हाम्रो बुबाको वंश विस्तार गर्नको निम्ति तिमी गएर उहाँसँग सुत ।”
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 यसैकारण, तिनीहरूले आफ्ना बुबालाई त्यस रात पनि मद्य पिउन लगाए, र कान्छीचाहिँ गएर उनीसँग सुतिन् । तिनी कहिले सुतिन् र कहिले उठिन् भन्ने उनलाई पत्तो नै भएन ।
And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he knew not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
36 यसरी लोतका दुवै छोरीहरू आफ्ना बुबाबाट गर्भवती भइन् ।
Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
37 जेठीले एउटा छोरो जन्माइन्, र त्यसको नाउँ मोआब राखिन् । वर्तमान समयका मोआबीहरूका पुर्खा उनी नै हुन् ।
And the first-born bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
38 कान्छी छोरीले पनि एउटा छोरा जन्माइन्, र त्यसको नाउँ बेन-अमी राखिन् । वर्तमान समयका अम्मोनीहरूका पुर्खा उनी नै हुन् ।
And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
