< Genesisi 18 >
1 Jehovha akazviratidza kuna Abhurahama pedyo nemiti mikuru yeMamure panguva yaakanga agere pamukova wokupinda patende rake masikati zuva richipisa.
And he appeared to him Yahweh at [the] great trees of Mamre and he [was] sitting [the] opening of the tent when [the] heat of the day.
2 Abhurahama akasimudza meso ake ndokuona varume vatatu vamire naye. Akati avaona, akamhanya achibva pamukova wetende rake kuti andosangana navo uye akakotamira pasi.
And he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! three men [were] standing with him and he saw and he ran to meet them from [the] opening of the tent and he bowed down [the] ground towards.
3 Akati, “Kana ndawana nyasha pamberi penyu, ishe wangu, musapfuura henyu muranda wenyu.
And he said Lord my if please I have found favor in view your may not please you pass by from with servant your.
4 Regai muvigirwe mvura shoma, mugoshamba tsoka dzenyu mose uye mugozorora pasi pomuti uyu.
Let it be brought please a little of water and wash feet your and support yourself under the tree.
5 Regai ndikutorerei zvokudya kuti mudye, kuitira kuti musimbiswe ipapo mugoenderera henyu mberi norwendo rwenyu, sezvo zvino masvika pamuranda wenyu.” Vakapindura vakati, “Zvakanaka, ita hako sezvawareva.”
So let me bring a piece of bread and sustain heart your (after *L(S)*) you will pass on for since you have passed by at servant your and they said thus you will do just as you have said.
6 Saka Abhurahama akakurumidza kuenda kutende kuna Sara. Akati kwaari, “Kurumidza, tora zviero zvitatu zvoupfu hwakatsetseka uhukanye ugobika chingwa.”
And he hurried Abraham the tent towards to Sarah and he said bring quickly three seahs flour fine flour knead [it] and make bread cakes.
7 Ipapo iye akamhanyira kumombe akandosarudza mhuru yakaisvonaka, akaipa kumuranda, uyo akakurumidza kuigadzira.
And to the herd he ran Abraham and he took a young one of [the] herd tender and good and he gave [it] to the servant and he hurried to prepare it.
8 Ipapo akauyisa ruomba nomukaka uye nemhuru yakanga yagadzirwa, akazvigadzika pamberi pavo. Pavakanga vachidya, akamira pedyo navo pasi pomuti.
And he brought curd and milk and [the] young one of the herd which he had prepared and he set [it] before them and he [was] standing with them under the tree and they ate.
9 Vakamubvunza vakati, “Mukadzi wako Sara aripiko?” Iye akati, “Ari mutende umo.”
And they said to him where? [is] Sarah wife your and he said there! in the tent.
10 Ipapo Jehovha akati, “Zvirokwazvo ndichadzokazve gore rinouya nenguva inenge seino, uye Sara mukadzi wako achava nomwanakomana.” Zvino Sara akanga achiteerera ari pamukova wetende wakanga uri shure kwake.
And he said certainly I will return to you about the time living and there! a son [will belong] to Sarah wife your and Sarah [was] listening [the] opening of the tent and it [was] behind him.
11 Abhurahama naSara vakanga vakwegura uye vava namakore mazhinji, uye Sara akanga atopfuura zera rokubereka vana.
And Abraham and Sarah [were] old [having] come in days it had ceased to be to Sarah a way like women.
12 Saka Sara akaseka mumwoyo make paakafunga achiti, “Ndichazovawo nomufaro uyu here zvino shure kwokuchembera kwangu, vatenzi vangu vakwegura?”
And she laughed Sarah in inner being her saying after am worn out I has it be[longed]? to me pleasure and lord my he is old.
13 Ipapo Jehovha akati kuna Abhurahama, “Seiko Sara aseka achiti, ‘Ndichava nomwana zvechokwadi here, sezvo zvino ndakwegura?’
And he said Yahweh to Abraham why? this did she laugh Sarah saying ¿ also really will I bear a child and I I am old.
14 Pane chinhu chakaoma kuna Jehovha here? Ndichadzokazve kwauri gore rinouya senguva dzakatarwa uye Sara achava nomwanakomana.”
¿ Is it [too] difficult for Yahweh anything to the appointed time I will return to you about the time living and [will belong] to Sarah a son.
15 Sara akatya, saka akareva nhema akati, “Handina kuseka.” Asi iye akati, “Hongu, waseka.”
And she denied Sarah - saying not I laughed for - she was afraid and he said - In-deed you laughed.
16 Varume vakati vasimuka kuti vaende, vakatarisa vakananga zasi kuSodhomu, uye Abhurahama akafamba navo achivaperekedza.
And they arose from there the men and they looked down on [the] face of Sodom and Abraham [was] walking with them to send off them.
17 Ipapo Jehovha akati, “Ko, ndichavanzira Abhurahama zvandiri kuda kuita here.
And Yahweh he said ¿ [be] concealing [will] I from Abraham [that] which I [am] about to do.
18 Zvirokwazvo Abhurahama achava rudzi rukuru rune simba, uye ndudzi dzose dzapanyika dzicharopafadzwa kubudikidza naye.
And Abraham certainly he will become a nation great and mighty and they will be blessed by him all [the] nations of the earth.
19 Nokuti ndakamusarudza kuti agotungamirira vana vake neveimba yake kuti vachengete nzira yaJehovha nokuita zvakanaka nezvakarurama, kuitira kuti Jehovha agouyisa pamusoro paAbhurahama zvaakamuvimbisa.”
For I have known him so that that he may command children his and household his after him and they will keep [the] way of Yahweh by doing righteousness and justice so that will bring Yahweh on Abraham [that] which he has spoken on him.
20 Ipapo Jehovha akati, “Kuchema pamusoro peSodhomu neGomora kukuru kwazvo uye chivi chavo chaipisisa
And he said Yahweh [the] outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah for it is great and sin their that it is heavy exceedingly.
21 zvokuti ndichaburuka kuti ndinoona kana zvavakaita zvakanyanya kuipa sokuchema kwakasvika kwandiri. Kana zvisina kudaro, ndichazviziva.”
I will go down please so I may see ¿ according to outcry its that has come to me have they done - completion and if not I will know.
22 Vanhu vaya vakabvapo uye vakaenda vakananga kuSodhomu, asi Abhurahama akaramba amire pamberi paJehovha.
And they turned away from there the men and they went Sodom towards (and Abraham *L(S)*) still [was] he standing before (Yahweh. *L(S)*)
23 Ipapo Abhurahama akaswedera kwaari akati, “Ko, muchaparadza vakarurama pamwe chete navakaipa here?
And he drew near Abraham and he said ¿ also will you sweep away [the] righteous with [the] wicked.
24 Ko, kana muguta mune vanhu makumi mashanu vakarurama? Muchariparadza zvechokwadi here mukasasiya nzvimbo iyo nokuda kwavanhu makumi mashanu varimo?
Perhaps there [are] fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city ¿ also will you sweep [it] away and not will you forgive? the place for [the] sake of fifty the righteous [people] who [are] in midst its.
25 Zvakadaro ngazvive kure nemi kuti muite chinhu chakadai, kuti muuraye vakarurama pamwe chete navatadzi, muchiitira vakarurama zvakafanana navatadzi. Zvakadaro ngazvive kure nemi! Ko, mutongi wenyika yose haangaiti zvakarurama here?”
Far be it to you from doing - according to the manner this to put to death [the] righteous with [the] wicked and it will be as the righteous [person] as the wicked [person] far be it to you ¿ [the] judge of all the earth not will he do justice.
26 Jehovha akati, “Kana ndikawana vanhu vakarurama makumi mashanu vari muguta reSodhomu, ndichaponesa nzvimbo yose nokuda kwavo.”
And he said Yahweh if I will find in Sodom fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city and I will forgive all the place for sake of them.
27 Ipapo Abhurahama akataurazve akati, “Zvino zvandatanga kudai kuti nditaure kuna Ishe, kunyange hazvo ndisiri chinhu asi guruva namadota,
And he answered Abraham and he said here! please I have undertaken to speak to [the] Lord and I [am] dust and ash[es].
28 ko, kana kukashayikwa vashanu kune vakarurama vana makumi mashanu? Muchaparadza guta rose nokuda kwavashanu ava here?” Akati, “Kana ndikawana makumi mana navashanu imomo, handingariparadzi.”
Perhaps they will lack! fifty the righteous [people] five ¿ will you destroy for five all the city and he said not I will destroy [it] if I will find there forty and five.
29 Zvakarezve akataura kwaari akati, “Ko, kana kukawanikwa makumi mana chete?” Iye akati, “Nokuda kwamakumi mana iwayo, handingaiti izvozvo.”
And he repeated again to speak to him and he said perhaps they will be found! there forty and he said not I will do [it] for sake of the forty.
30 Ipapo akati, “Ishe ngaarege kunditsamwira, asi regai nditaure hangu. Ko, kana makumi matatu chete vakawanikwamo?” Iye akapindura akati, “Handingaiti izvozvo kana ndikawana makumi matatu chete.”
And he said may not please it burn to [the] Lord and let me speak perhaps they will be found! there thirty and he said not I will do [it] if I will find there thirty.
31 Abhurahama akati, “Zvino zvandatsunga hangu kudai kuti nditaure kuna Ishe, ko, kana makumi maviri akawanikwamo?” Iye akati, “Nokuda kwamakumi maviri iwayo, handingariparadzi.”
And he said here! please I have undertaken to speak to [the] Lord perhaps they will be found! there twenty and he said not I will destroy [it] for sake of the twenty.
32 Ipapo akati, “Ishe ngaarege kunditsamwira, asi regai hangu nditaurezve kamwe chete. Ko, kana gumi chete vakawanikwamo?” Iye akapindura akati, “Nokuda kwaivavo gumi, handingariparadzi.”
And he said may not please it burn to [the] Lord and let me speak only this time perhaps they will be found! there ten and he said not I will destroy [it] for sake of the ten.
33 Jehovha akati apedza kutaura naAbhurahama, akabva, uye Abhurahama akadzoka kumba kwake.
And he went Yahweh just as he had finished to speak to Abraham and Abraham he returned to place his.
