1 Mojzes 19
1 Zvečer sta k Sódomi prišla dva angela in Lot je sedel pri sódomskih velikih vratih, in ko ju je Lot zagledal, je vstal, da ju sreča in se je s svojim obrazom upognil k tlom
The two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening. Lot happened to be sitting at the entrance to Sodom, and when he saw them he stood up to meet them, and bowed low with his face to the ground.
2 ter rekel: »Glejta torej, moja gospoda, vstopita, prosim vaju, v hišo svojega služabnika in ostanita vso noč in umijta svoja stopala in bosta zgodaj vstala ter nadaljevala po svojih poteh.« Onadva pa sta rekla: »Ne, temveč bova vso noč ostala na ulici.«
“Sirs, please come and stay with me for the night,” he said. “You can wash your feet and then be on your way early in the morning.” They replied, “No, it's fine. We'll spend the night here in the square.”
3 Zelo ju je silil in obrnila sta se k njemu in vstopila v njegovo hišo in naredil jima je gostijo, spekel nekvašeni kruh in so jedli.
But Lot insisted, and they went with him to his house. He made them a meal and baked bread for them to eat.
4 Toda preden so se ulegli, so možje mesta, torej sódomski možje, obdali hišo, tako mladi kakor stari, vse ljudstvo iz vsake četrti.
But they hadn't even gone to bed before the men of Sodom, young and old, from every part of town, came and surrounded the house.
5 Klicali so k Lotu ter mu rekli: »Kje sta moža, ki sta to noč prišla k tebi? Privedi ju ven k nam, da ju bomo lahko spoznali.«
They shouted out to Lot, “Where are the men who came to stay with you tonight? Bring them out here to us so we can have sex with them.”
6 Lot je od vrat odšel k njim in vrata zaprl za seboj
Lot went out to talk to them in the doorway, closing the door behind him.
7 ter rekel: »Prosim vas, bratje, ne storite tako zlobno.
“My friends, please don't do such an evil thing!
8 Glejte torej, imam dve hčeri, ki nista spoznali moža. Naj vam, prosim vas, njiju pripeljem k vam in storite jima, kakor je dobro v vaših očeh. Samo tema možema ne storite ničesar, kajti zato sta prišla pod senco moje strehe.«
Listen, I've got two virgin daughters. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do to them whatever you want, but please don't do anything to these men. It's my responsibility to look after them.”
9 Rekli so: »Umakni se.« In ponovno so rekli: »Ta pajdaš je prišel, da začasno prebiva in hoče biti sodnik. Torej bomo s teboj postopali slabše kakor z njima.« In zelo so pritiskali na človeka, torej Lota in se približali, da zlomijo vrata.
“Out of our way!” they shouted. “Who do you think you are, coming to live here and now trying to judge us? We'll do even worse things to you than we were going to do to these men!” They rushed forward at Lot and tried to break down the door.
10 Toda moža sta iztegnila svojo roko in potegnila Lota k njim v hišo ter zaprla vrata.
But the men inside reached out and grabbed Lot, dragged him inside, and slammed the door shut.
11 Može, ki so bili pri hišnih vratih, pa sta udarila s slepoto, tako male kakor velike, tako da so se utrudili, da bi našli vrata.
Then they made all the men in the doorway, young and old, suddenly go blind so they couldn't find the door.
12 Moža sta Lotu rekla: »Imaš, razen teh tukaj, še koga? Zeta, svoje sinove, svoje hčere in karkoli imaš v mestu, jih odvedi iz tega kraja,
The two men asked Lot, “Is there anyone else here who's part of your family—sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or anyone else in the town? If there are, make sure they leave,
13 kajti uničila bova ta kraj, ker je njihovo vpitje naraslo pred Gospodovim obličjem in Gospod naju je poslal, da ga uničiva.«
because we are about to destroy this place. The complaints that have reached the Lord about its people have become so bad that he has sent us to destroy it.”
14 Lot je odšel ven in svojima zetoma, ki sta poročila njegovi hčeri, spregovoril ter rekel: »Vstanita, pojdita ven iz tega kraja, kajti Gospod bo to mesto uničil.« Toda videti je bil kakor nekdo, ki je zasmehoval svoja zeta.
Lot went immediately to speak to the men who were engaged to marry his daughters. “Get up quickly and leave,” he said, “because the Lord is about to destroy the town!” But they thought it was just a joke.
15 Ko je vstalo jutro, sta angela podvizala Lota, rekoč: »Vstani, vzemi svojo ženo in svoji dve hčeri, ki sta tukaj, da ne bi bil použit v krivičnosti tega mesta.«
At dawn, the angels begged Lot to be quick, telling him, “Hurry up! Leave right now with your wife and your two daughters here, otherwise you'll be wiped out when the city is punished.”
16 Medtem ko se je obotavljal, sta moža prijela njegovo roko, roko njegove žene in roki njegovih dveh hčera – Gospod mu je bil usmiljen – in odvedla sta ga naprej in ga postavila zunaj mesta.
But Lot hesitated. The men grabbed his hand, and those of his wife and two daughters, and dragged them along, leaving them outside the town. The Lord was kind to them to do this.
17 In pripetilo se je, ko sta jih privedla daleč naprej, da je rekel: »Pobegnite zaradi svojega življenja. Ne glejte za seboj niti ne ostanite na vsej ravnini. Zbežite h gori, da ne bi bili použiti.«
As soon as they were outside, one of the men said, “Run for your lives! Don't look back, and don't stop anywhere in the valley! Run to the mountains otherwise you'll be destroyed!”
18 Lot pa jima je rekel: »Oh ne tako, moj Gospod.
“Please sir, not that!” Lot replied.
19 Glej torej, tvoj služabnik je našel milost v tvojem pogledu in ti si poveličal svoje usmiljenje, ki si mi ga izkazal z rešitvijo mojega življenja, jaz pa ne morem pobegniti h gori, da me ne bi zajelo neko zlo in umrem.
“If you don't mind, since you have already been so kind to me by saving my life, don't make me run to the mountains—I just can't make it. The destruction will overtake me and I'll die!
20 Glej torej, to mesto je blizu, da pobegnem vanj in to je majhno. Oh, dovoli mi pobegniti tja ( mar ni to majhno?) in moja duša bo živela.«
Look, there's a town nearby that's close enough to run to, and it's so small. Please let me run there—it's really very small. It would save my life.”
21 Rekel mu je: »Glej, sprejel sem te tudi glede te stvari, da ne bom uničil tega mesta, za katero si govoril.
“Fine—I'll do as you ask,” he replied. “I won't destroy this town you've mentioned.
22 Pohiti, zbeži tja, kajti ničesar ne morem storiti, dokler ne prideš tja.« Zato je bilo ime tega mesta imenovano Coar.
But hurry up and run there quickly, because I can't do anything until you get there.” (This is why the town was called Zoar.)
23 Sonce je vstalo nad zemljo, ko je Lot vstopil v Coar.
The sun had already risen by the time Lot reached Zoar.
24 Potem je Gospod na Sódomo in na Gomóro deževal žveplo in ogenj od Gospoda z neba
Then the Lord rained down fire and burning sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.
25 in razdejal je ti mesti, vso ravnino, vse prebivalce mest in to, kar je raslo na tleh.
He completely destroyed the towns and all their inhabitants, the whole valley and everything growing there.
26 Toda njegova žena je za njim pogledala nazaj in postala solnat steber.
But Lot's wife, who was lagging behind, looked back, and she turned into a pillar of salt.
27 Abraham je vstal zgodaj zjutraj h kraju, kjer je stal pred Gospodom
Abraham got up early the next morning and went back to where he had stood before the Lord.
28 in pogledal proti Sódomi in Gomóri in proti vsej deželi ravnine in zagledal in glej, dim dežele se je dvigal kakor dim iz talilne peči.
He looked down at Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley floor, and saw the land burning, sending up smoke like from a furnace.
29 In pripetilo se je, ko je Bog uničil mesta ravnine, da se je Bog spomnil Abrahama in Lota poslal iz srede razdejanja, ko je razdejal mesti, v katerih je prebival Lot.
When God destroyed the towns of the valley he didn't forget the promise he made Abraham, and he saved Lot from the destruction of the towns where Lot was living.
30 Lot je iz Coarja odšel navzgor, prebival na gori in njegovi hčeri z njim, kajti bal se je prebivati v Coarju in prebival je v votlini, on in njegovi dve hčeri.
Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, so he left town and went to live in a cave in the mountains with his two daughters.
31 Prvorojena je rekla mlajši: »Najin oče je star in tukaj ni moškega na zemlji, da pride noter v naju po navadi vse zemlje.
Sometime later the older daughter said to the younger one, “Our father is growing old, and there's no men left to give us children like everyone does.
32 Pridi, najinega očeta pripraviva piti vino in bova ležali z njim, da lahko ohraniva seme najinega očeta.«
Come on, let's get our father drunk with wine and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
33 To noč sta svojega očeta pripravili piti vino in vstopila je prvorojena in ležala s svojim očetom in ni zaznal, ne ko se je ulegla, ne ko je vstala.
So they got their father drunk with wine that night. The older daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
34 Naslednji dan se je pripetilo, da je prvorojena rekla mlajši: »Glej, sinoči sem bila s svojim očetom. Pripraviva ga tudi to noč piti vino in pojdi ti in lezi z njim, da bova lahko ohranili seme najinega očeta.«
The next day the older daughter said to the younger one, “Last night I slept with our father. Let's get him drunk with wine again tonight and you can go and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
35 Tudi to noč sta svojega očeta pripravili piti vino in mlajša je vstala in ležala z njim in ni zaznal, ne ko se je ulegla, ne ko je vstala.
So once again that night they got their father drunk with wine and the younger daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
36 Tako sta bili obe Lotovi hčeri z otrokom s svojim očetom.
This is how both Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
37 Prvorojena je rodila sina in njegovo ime imenovala Moáb. Isti je oče Moábcev do današnjega dne.
The older daughter had a son, and she called him Moab. He is the ancestor of the Moabites of today.
38 Mlajša, tudi ona je rodila sina in njegovo ime imenovala Ben Amí. Isti je oče Amónovih otrok do današnjega dne.
The younger daughter had a son too, and she called him Ben-ammi. He is the ancestor of the Ammonites of today.
