< Mwanzo 18 >
1 Bwana akamtokea Abrahamu karibu na mialoni ya Mamre wakati alipokuwa ameketi kwenye ingilio la hema lake wakati wa adhuhuri.
Abraham teh kanîthun khumbei a thoe lahun nah, rim takhang koe a tahung navah BAWIPA teh Mamre kathenkungnaw koehoi ahni koe a kamnue.
2 Abrahamu akainua macho akaona watu watatu wamesimama karibu naye. Alipowaona, aliharakisha kutoka kwenye ingilio la hema lake kuwalaki na kuwasujudia hadi nchi.
A khet teh a hmalah tami kathum touh a kangdue e a hmu navah, rim takhang koehoi ahnimanaw kâhmo hanelah a yawng teh talai dawk a tabo.
3 Akasema, “Kama nimepata kibali machoni penu, ee bwana wangu, usimpite mtumishi wako.
Hahoi, ka bawipa na hmalah minhmai kahawi ka hmawt pawiteh na san heh na cettakhai hanh.
4 Acha yaletwe maji kidogo, kisha ninyi nyote mnawe miguu yenu na mpumzike chini ya mti huu.
Tui youn touh ka sin vaiteh na khok pâsu awh nateh, thingkung rahim kâhat awh ei.
5 Niruhusuni niwapatie chakula kidogo mle, ili mpate nguvu mwendelee na safari yenu, kwa kuwa mmekuja kwa mtumishi wenu.” Nao wakamjibu, “Vema sana, fanya kama unavyosema.”
Na tha tawn e roum nahanelah vaiyei youn touh ka sin hnukkhu, na cettakhai awh. Hottelah e coe hanelah na san onae koe na pha toe telah atipouh. Ahnimanaw ni hai na dei patetlah sak lawih atipouh.
6 Hivyo Abrahamu akaharakisha akaingia hemani kwa Sara, akamwambia, “Chukua vipimo vitatu vya unga laini haraka, ukande na uoke mikate.”
Abraham teh rim thung kaawm e Sarah koe karanglah a yawng teh tavai sum thum touh hane coungkacoe lat nateh karanglah kanawk nateh thawng leih atipouh.
7 Kisha Abrahamu akakimbia kwenda kwenye kundi, akachagua ndama mzuri, laini na akampa mtumishi, ambaye aliharakisha kumtayarisha.
Hahoi Abraham ni maitohu koe a yawng teh, maitoca a tak kathâw e a la teh, a san thoundoun koe a poe teh karanglah a rakueng sak.
8 Kisha akaleta jibini, maziwa na nyama ya yule ndama iliyoandaliwa, akaviweka mbele ya wageni. Walipokuwa wakila, alisimama karibu nao chini ya mti.
Hathnukkhu, sanutui hoi maitoca moi ahnimae hmalah a pâtoum pouh teh a ca awh. Ahnimanaw ni a ca awh lahun nah, ama teh thingkung rahim a kangdue.
9 Wakamuuliza, “Yuko wapi Sara mkeo?” Akasema, “Yuko huko, ndani ya hema.”
Ahnimanaw ni na maw Sarah ao telah a pacei navah rim thung ao telah atipouh.
10 Kisha Bwana akasema, “Hakika nitakurudia tena majira kama haya mwakani na Sara mkeo atakuwa ana mwana.” Sara alikuwa akiwasikiliza kwenye ingilio la hema, lililokuwa nyuma yake.
Hahoi ahnimanaw ni palawng het tuektue nah nang koe bout ka tho vaiteh na yu Sarah ni ca tongpa a khe han atipouh. Hatnavah Sarah teh ahnimae a hnukkhu lae rim takhang koe ao teh a thai.
11 Abrahamu na Sara walikuwa wazee tena waliosogea miaka, naye Sara alikuwa amekoma katika desturi ya wanawake.
Abraham hoi Sarah teh a matawng ni teh a kumcue roi poung toe. Sarah teh camo o thainae a pout toe.
12 Hivyo Sara akacheka kimoyomoyo alipokuwa akiwaza, “Baada ya mimi kuwa mkongwe hivi na bwana wangu amezeeka, je, nitaweza kufurahia jambo hili?”
Hatdawkvah, Sarah ni lunghawinae kai ni ka tawn han rah maw ati teh duem a panui. Ka bawipa hai a matawng poung toe telah ati.
13 Ndipo Bwana akamwambia Abrahamu, “Kwa nini Sara amecheka na kusema, ‘Kweli nitazaa mtoto nami sasa ni mzee?’
BAWIPA ni Abraham koevah, bangkongmaw Sarah ni ka matawng toung dawkvah camo ka khe thai han rah maw ti teh a panui vaw.
14 Je, kuna jambo lolote gumu lisilowezekana kwa Bwana? Nitakurudia mwakani majira kama haya, naye Sara atakuwa na mwana.”
BAWIPA hanelah hno ka ru ao maw. A tueng khoe e patetlah palawng vah Sarah camo a khe han telah atipouh.
15 Sara akaogopa kwa kuwa alidanganya na kusema, “Mimi sikucheka.” Lakini Bwana akasema, “Ndiyo, ulicheka!”
Hatei Sarah ni ka panui hoeh titeh a kâpapha. Bangkongtetpawiteh, a lungpuen dawk doeh. Ahni ni nahoeh na panui atipouh awh.
16 Wakati watu hao waliposimama ili waondoke, walielekeza nyuso zao Sodoma, Abrahamu akawatoa kitambo kidogo ili awasindikize.
Hahoi, taminaw hote hmuen koehoi a thaw awh teh Sodom kho a radoung awh. Abraham hai ahnimanaw a thak hanelah a kâbang van.
17 Ndipo Bwana akasema, “Je, nimfiche Abrahamu jambo ninalokusudia kufanya?
Hatei BAWIPA ni ka sak hane hno Abraham koe ka pâpha pouh han maw.
18 Hakika Abrahamu atakuwa taifa kubwa na lenye nguvu, kupitia kwake mataifa yote ya dunia yatabarikiwa.
Abraham teh tami kalen hoi Athakasaipounge miphun lah a coung han. Talaivan e tami pueng ni ahni lahoi yawhawi a coe awh han.
19 Kwa maana nimemchagua yeye, ili awaongoze watoto wake na jamaa yake kufuata njia ya Bwana, kwa kuwa waadilifu na kutenda haki, ili Bwana atimize ahadi yake kwa Abrahamu.”
Bangkongtetpawiteh ahni ni hmalah ka tho hane a canaw hoi imthungnaw ni BAWIPA e lamthung a dawn awh vaiteh, lannae hoi hnokahawi sak hanelah, ka dei tangcoung e patetlah BAWIPA ni Abraham koe kakuep sak hanelah ahni teh ka panue e doeh telah ati.
20 Basi Bwana akasema, “Kilio dhidi ya Sodoma na Gomora ni kikubwa sana na dhambi yao inasikitisha sana,
Hahoi BAWIPA ni Sodom hoi Gomorrah kho dawk e hramnae lawk hoi a yonnae teh puenghoi a len toung dawkvah,
21 kwamba nitashuka nione kama waliyoyatenda ni mabaya kiasi cha kilio kilichonifikia. Kama sivyo, nitajua.”
Atu ka cei vaiteh kai koe ka phat e a hram awh patetlah ahnimanaw ni a sak katang maw. Sak katang hoeh maw tie atu ka khet han. Sak hoehpawiteh a sak hoeh e ka panue han telah ati.
22 Basi wale watu wakageuka wakaenda kuelekea Sodoma, lakini Abrahamu akabaki amesimama mbele za Bwana.
Hote taminaw teh hote hmuen koehoi a kamlang awh teh Sodom kho lah a cei awh. Abraham ma teh BAWIPA hmalah paroup a kangdue.
23 Ndipo Abrahamu akamsogelea akasema: “Je, utawaangamiza wenye haki na waovu?
Hahoi Abraham ni a hnai teh, tamikalannaw hai tamikathoutnaw hoi mek na raphoe han maw.
24 Je, ikiwa watakuwepo watu wenye haki hamsini katika mji huo, hivi kweli utauangamiza na wala hutauacha kwa ajili ya hao watu hamsini wenye haki waliomo ndani yake?
Hote kho dawk tamikalan 50 touh awm pawiteh, a thung e tamikalan 50 touh ao kecu dawk hote hmuen teh na raphoe han maw.
25 Hilo na liwe mbali nawe, kufanya jambo kama hilo, kuwaua wenye haki pamoja na waovu, kuwatendea wenye haki sawasawa na waovu. Iwe mbali nawe! Je, Mwamuzi wa dunia yote hatafanya lililo sawa?”
Tamikalannaw hah tamikathoutnaw patetlah khang sak hane teh nang hoi kâhlat naseh. Talaivan pueng lawkcengkung ni kalan lah lawkceng mahoeh maw.
26 Bwana akasema, “Kama nikipata watu hamsini wenye haki katika mji wa Sodoma, nitausamehe huo mji wote kwa ajili yao.”
Hottelah BAWIPA ni Sodom kho thung vah, tamikalan 50 touh ka hmawt pawiteh, ahnimouh kecu dawk hote hmuen pueng teh ka pasai han telah atipouh.
27 Kisha Abrahamu akasema tena: “Sasa kwa kuwa nimekuwa na ujasiri wa kuzungumza na Bwana, ingawa mimi si kitu bali ni mavumbi na majivu;
Abraham ni kai teh vaiphu hoi hraba lah ka o ei, BAWIPA nang koe lawk na pacei hanelah tha bout ka kâla.
28 je, kama hesabu ya wenye haki imepungua watano katika hamsini, utauangamiza huo mji wote kwa ajili ya hao watano waliopungua?” Bwana akamwambia, “Kama nikiwakuta huko watu arobaini na watano, sitauangamiza.”
Tamikalan 50 touh dawk panga touh kuep hoehpawiteh, hote panga touh akuep hoeh dawk, hote khopui teh na raphoe han maw, telah a pacei. Ahni ni hawvah 45 touh ka hmu nakunghai ka raphoe mahoeh atipouh.
29 Abrahamu akazungumza naye kwa mara nyingine, “Je, kama huko watapatikana watu arobaini tu?” Akamjibu, “Kwa ajili ya hao arobaini, sitauangamiza.”
Hahoi 40 touh ka hmu yawkaw han doeh bout atipouh navah, 40 touh hai ka raphoe mahoeh atipouh.
30 Ndipo akasema, “Bwana na asikasirike, lakini niruhusu nizungumze. Je, kama huko watakuwepo thelathini tu?” Akajibu, “Sitapaangamiza ikiwa nitawakuta huko watu thelathini.”
Hahoi Oe BAWIPA na lungphuen hanh, bout na pacei ei nei, 30 touh ka hmu yawkaw han doeh bout atipouh navah, 30 touh hane dawk hai ka raphoe mahoeh atipouh.
31 Abrahamu akasema, “Sasa kwa kuwa nimekuwa na ujasiri sana kuzungumza na Bwana, je, kama wakipatikana huko watu ishirini tu?” Bwana akajibu, “Kwa ajili ya hao ishirini, sitauangamiza.”
Ahni ni thai haw, BAWIPA koe lawk bout ka pacei ei nei, hawvah 20 touh ka hmu yawkaw han doeh bout atipouh navah, 20 touh hane dawk hai ka raphoe mahoeh atipouh.
32 Abrahamu akasema, “Bwana na asikasirike, lakini niruhusu nizungumze tena mara moja tu. Itakuwaje kama watapatikana huko watu kumi tu?” Bwana akajibu, “Kwa ajili ya hao kumi, sitauangamiza.”
Hahoi, Oe BAWIPA na lungkhuek hanh yawkaw, vai touh bout na pacei einei, hawvah 10 touh ka hmawt pawiteh atipouh navah, 10 touh hane dawk hai ka raphoe mahoeh atipouh.
33 Bwana alipomaliza kuzungumza na Abrahamu, akaondoka, naye Abrahamu akarudi nyumbani kwake.
BAWIPA teh Abraham hoi lawk koung a kâpato roi hnukkhu a ceitakhai. Abraham haiyah a ma onae koe a ban.
