1 Oo Rabbigaa u muuqday isaga oo ag jooga dhirtii Mamre, isagoo iridda teendhada fadhiya markii maalinta ugu kululayd.
And the Lord appeared to him in the vale of Mambre as he was sitting at the door of his tent, in the very heat of the day.
2 Oo indhihiisii buu kor u taagay oo eegay, oo wuxuu arkay saddex nin oo hortiisa taagan: oo kolkuu arkay, ayuu ka orday iriddii teendhada inuu ka hor tago iyagii, kolkaasuu dhulka ku sujuuday,
And when he had lifted up his eyes, there appeared to him three men standing near him: and as soon as he saw them he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and adored down to the ground.
3 oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, haddaad raalli iga tahay, ha i dhaafin anigoo addoonkaaga ah.
And he said: Lord, if I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away from thy servant:
4 Biyo yar ha laydiin keeno, oo cagamaydha, oo geedka hoostiisa ku nasta:
But I will fetch a little water, and wash ye your feet, and rest ye under the tree.
5 oo waxaan idiin keeni doonaa wuxoogaa cunto ah, ee raaxaysta; waayo, waxaad u timaadeen addoonkiinna; markaas ka dib waad tegi doontaan. Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Yeel sidaad tidhi.
And I will set a morsel of bread, and strengthen ye your heart, afterwards you shall pass on: for therefore are you come aside to your servant. And they said: Do as thou hast spoken.
6 Ibraahimna dhaqsuu u galay teendhadii, oo Saarah u tegey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Saddex koombo oo bur ah degdeg u diyaari, oo cajiin, oo kibis ka samee.
Abraham made haste into the tent to Sara, and said to her: Make haste, temper together three measures of flour, and make cakes upon the hearth.
7 Oo Ibraahim xagga lo'dii buu ku orday, oo wuxuu soo kaxeeyey dibi yar oo dhaylo ah oo wanaagsan, oo wuxuu u dhiibay nin dhallinyaro ah, isaguna dhaqsuu u diyaariyey.
And he himself ran to the herd, and took from thence a calf very tender and very good, and gave it to a young man: who made haste and boiled it.
8 Kolkaasuu u qaaday subag, iyo caano, iyo dibigii uu diyaariyey, oo hortooduu dhigay; isna dhinacooduu istaagay geedkii hoostiisii; iyana way cuneen.
He took also butter and milk, and the calf which he had boiled, and set before them: but he stood by them under the tree.
9 Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Meeday bilcantaadii Saarah? Markaasuu yidhi, Waa taa; teendhaday ku jirtaa.
And when they had eaten, they said to him: Where is Sara thy wife? He answered: Lo, she is in the tent.
10 Wuxuuna ku yidhi, Hubaal waan kuu soo noqon doonaa markii xilligu soo wareego; oo bal ogow, naagtaada Saarah wiil bay dhali doontaaye. Saarahna way maqashay, iyadoo joogta iriddii teendhada oo ka dambaysay isaga.
And he said to him: I will return and come to thee at this time, life accompanying and Sara thy wife shall have a son. Which when Sara heard, she laughed behind the door of the tent.
11 Haddaba Ibraahim iyo Saarah way da' weynaayeen; gabow bayna la dhaceen; caadadii naaguhuna Saarah way ka joogsatay.
Now they were both old, and far advanced in years, and it had ceased to be with Sara after the manner of women.
12 Saarahna qalbigay ka qososhay, iyadoo leh, Ma anigoo gaboobay baan farxad heli doonaa, iyadoo sayidkayguna gaboobay?
And she laughed secretly, saying: After I am grown old and my lord is an old man, shall I give myself to pleasure?
13 Rabbiguna wuxuu Ibraahim ku yidhi, Saarah maxay u qososhay, iyadoo leh, Runtii ma ilmaan dhali doonaa, anoo gaboobay?
And the Lord said to Abraham: Why did Sara laugh, saying: Shall I who am an old woman bear a child indeed?
14 Ma wax Rabbiga ku adag baa jira? Wakhtigii la ballamay baan kugu soo noqon doonaa, markii xilligu soo wareego, oo Saarah wiil bay dhali doontaa.
Is there any thing hard to God? According to appointment I will return to thee at this same time, life accompanying, and Sara shall have a son.
15 Markaasaa Saarah dafirtay oo tidhi, Ma aan qoslin; maxaa yeelay, way cabsatay. Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Maya, laakiin waad qososhay.
Sara denied, saying: I did not laugh: for she was afraid. But the Lord said, Nay: but thou didst laugh:
16 Nimankiina halkaas way ka kaceen, oo waxay u jeesteen xagga Sodom: Ibraahimna wuu raacay inuu sagootiyo iyaga.
And when the men rose up from thence, they turned their eyes towards Sodom: and Abraham walked with them, bringing them on the way.
17 Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Miyaan Ibraahim ka qariyaa waxaan samaynayo,
And the Lord said: Can I hide from Abraham what I am about to do:
18 Maxaa yeelay, hubaal Ibraahim wuxuu noqon doonaa quruun weyn oo xoog leh, oo quruumaha dhulka oo dhammu isagay ku barakoobi doonaan?
Seeing he shall become a great and mighty nation, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed?
19 Waayo, waan garanayaa isaga, inuu carruurtiisa iyo kuwa gurigiisa jooga ku amri doono, inay jidka Rabbiga xajiyaan inay sameeyaan xaqnimo iyo caaddilnimo; si uu Rabbigu Ibraahim ugu soo dejiyo wixii uu kaga hadlay.
For I know that he will command his children, and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord, and do judgment and justice: that for Abraham’s sake the Lord may bring to effect all the things he hath spoken unto him.
20 Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Qaylada Sodom iyo Gomora way badatay, dembigooduna aad buu u weynaaday.
And the Lord said: The cry of Sodom and Gomorrha is multiplied, and their sin is become exceedingly grievous.
21 Haddaba waan degi doonaa, oo waxaan arki doonaa inay wada sameeyeen sida qayladu ii soo gaadhay iyo in kale; haddaanay wada samaynna, waan ogaan doonaa.
I will go down and see whether they have done according to the cry that is come to me: or whether it be not so, that I may know.
22 Oo nimankii halkaasay ka noqdeen oo waxay tageen xagga Sodom: laakiinse Ibraahim weli wuxuu hor taagnaa Rabbiga.
And they turned themselves from thence, and went their way to Sodom: but Abraham as yet stood before the Lord.
23 Oo Ibraahim baa u dhowaaday, oo yidhi, Miyaad kuwa xaqa ah la baabbi'inaysaa kuwa sharka fala?
And drawing nigh he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?
24 Mindhaa waxaa magaalada jooga konton xaq ah. De miyaad baabbi'inaysaa meesha oo aadan ugu tudhaynin kontonka xaqa ah ee jooga aawadood?
If there be fifty just men in the city, shall they perish withal? and wilt thou not spare that place for the sake of the fifty just, if they be therein?
25 Yaanay noqon inaad sidaas samayso, inaad kuwa xaqa ah la dishid kuwa sharka fala, oo sidaas kuwa xaqa ahu ay kula mid noqdaan kuwa sharka fala, taas yaanay noqon. Dunida oo dhan Xaakinkeedu miyuusan xaq samayn doonin?
Far be it from thee to do this thing, and to slay the just with the wicked, and for the just to be in like case as the wicked, this is not beseeming thee: thou who judgest all the earth, wilt not make this judgment.
26 Markaasaa Rabbigu yidhi, Haddaan Sodom ka helo konton qof oo xaq ah oo magaalada jooga, de markaas meeshaa oo dhan waxaan ugu tudhi doonaa iyaga daraaddood.
And the Lord said to him: If I find in Sodom fifty just within the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.
27 Oo Ibraahimna wuu jawaabay oo yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo, anoo ciid iyo dambas ah.
And Abraham answered, and said: Seeing I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes.
28 Mindhaa kontonka xaqa ah shan baa ka dhiman; miyaad magaalada oo dhan u baabbi'in hadday shanu ka dhiman tahay? Markaasuu yidhi, Baabbi'in maayo haddaan meeshaas shan iyo afartan ka helo.
What if there be five less than fifty just persons? wilt thou for five and forty destroy the whole city? And he said: I will not destroy it, if I find five and forty.
29 Kolkaasuu mar kale la hadlay, oo yidhi, Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli afartan. Markaasuu yidhi, Afartanka aawadood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
And again he said to him: But if forty be found there, what wilt thou do? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of forty.
30 Oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidku yuusan cadhoon, waan la hadlayaaye. Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli soddon. Markaasuu yidhi, Baabbi'in maayo haddaan soddon halkaas ka helo.
Lord, saith he, be not angry, I beseech thee, if I speak: What if thirty shall be found there? He answered: I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
31 Markaasuu yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo: mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli labaatan. Markaasuu yidhi, Labaatanka daraaddood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
Seeing, saith he, I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord. What if twenty be found there? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty.
32 Oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidku yuusan cadhoon, oo weli waan la hadlayaaye, waase markan keliya. Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli toban. Wuxuuna yidhi, Tobanka daraaddood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
I beseech thee, saith he, be not angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more: What if ten should be found there? And he said: I will not destroy it for the sake of ten.
33 Rabbiguna wuu iska tegey markuu Ibraahim la dhammeeyey hadalkii, Ibraahimna meeshiisii buu ku noqday.
And the Lord departed, after he had left speaking to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.
