Genesis 19
1 Ní àṣálẹ́, àwọn angẹli méjì sì wá sí ìlú Sodomu, Lọti sì jókòó ní ẹnu ibodè ìlú. Bí ó sì ti rí wọn, ó sì dìde láti pàdé wọn, ó kí wọn, ó sì foríbalẹ̀ fún wọn.
And the two Angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting at the gate of the city. And when he had seen them, he rose up and went to meet them. And he reverenced prone on the ground.
2 Ó wí pé, “Ẹ̀yin olúwa mi, èmi bẹ̀ yín, ẹ yà sí ilé ìránṣẹ́ yín kí ẹ sì wẹ ẹsẹ̀ yín, kí n sì gbà yín lálejò, ẹ̀yin ó sì dìde ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ láti máa bá ìrìnàjò yín lọ.” Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Rárá o, àwa yóò dúró ní ìgboro ní òru òní.”
And he said: “I beg you, my lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and lodge there. Wash your feet, and in the morning you will advance on your way.” And they said, “Not at all. But we will lodge in the street.”
3 Ṣùgbọ́n Lọti rọ̀ wọ́n gidigidi tó bẹ́ẹ̀ tí wọ́n gbà láti bá a lọ sì ilé. Ó sì ṣe àsè fún wọn, ó sì dín àkàrà aláìwú fún wọ́n, wọ́n sì jẹ.
He pressed them very much to turn aside to him. And when they had entered his house, he made a feast for them, and he cooked unleavened bread, and they ate.
4 Ṣùgbọ́n kí ó tó di pé wọ́n lọ sùn, àwọn ọkùnrin ìlú Sodomu tọmọdé tàgbà yí ilé náà ká.
But before they went to bed, the men of the city surrounded the house, from boys to old men, all the people together.
5 Wọ́n pe Lọti pé, “Àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wọ̀ sí ilé rẹ lálẹ́ yìí ń kọ́? Mú wọn jáde fún wa, kí a le ní ìbálòpọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn.”
And they called out to Lot, and they said to him: “Where are the men who entered to you in the night? Bring them out here, so that we may know them.”
6 Lọti sì jáde láti pàdé wọn, ó sì ti ìlẹ̀kùn lẹ́yìn rẹ̀ bí ó ti jáde.
Lot went out to them, and blocking the door behind him, he said:
7 Ó sì wí pé, “Rárá, ẹ̀yin ará mi, ẹ má ṣe ṣe ohun búburú yìí,
“Do not, I ask you, my brothers, do not be willing to commit this evil.
8 kíyèsi i, mo ní ọmọbìnrin méjì tí kò mọ ọkùnrin rí, ẹ jẹ́ kí n mú wọn tọ̀ yín wá kí ẹ sì ṣe ohun tí ẹ fẹ́ pẹ̀lú wọn. Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ má ṣe ṣe àwọn ọkùnrin wọ̀nyí ní ibi kan nítorí wọ́n wá wọ̀ lábẹ́ ààbò ní ilé mi.”
I have two daughters who as yet have not known man. I will bring them out to you; abuse them as it pleases you, provided that you do no evil to these men, because they have entered under the shadow of my roof.”
9 Wọ́n sì wí fún pé, “Bì sẹ́yìn fún wa. Èyí yìí wá ṣe àtìpó láàrín wa, òun sì fẹ́ ṣe onídàájọ́! Aburú tí a ó fi ṣe ọ́ yóò pọ̀ ju tí wọn lọ.” Wọn rọ́ lu Lọti, wọ́n sì súnmọ́ ọn láti fọ́ ìlẹ̀kùn.
But they said, “Move away from there.” And again: “You have entered,” they said, “as a stranger; should you then judge? Therefore, we will afflict you yourself more than them.” And they acted very violently against Lot. And they were now at the point of breaking open the doors.
10 Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkùnrin náà nawọ́ fa Lọti wọlé, wọ́n sì ti ìlẹ̀kùn.
And behold, the men put out their hand, and they pulled Lot in to them, and they closed the door.
11 Wọ́n sì bu ìfọ́jú lu àwọn ọkùnrin tí ó wà ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà ilé náà, àti èwe àti àgbà: wọ́n kò sì rí ẹnu-ọ̀nà mọ́.
And they struck those who were outside with blindness, from the least to the greatest, so that they were not able to find the door.
12 Àwọn ọkùnrin náà sì wí fún Lọti pé, “Ǹjẹ́ ó ní ẹlòmíràn ní ìlú yìí bí? Àna rẹ ọkùnrin, àwọn ọmọ rẹ lọ́kùnrin àti lóbìnrin, tàbí ẹnikẹ́ni tí ìwọ ní ní ìlú yìí, kó wọn jáde kúrò ní ibí yìí,
Then they said to Lot: “Do you have here anyone of yours? All who are yours, sons-in-law, or sons, or daughters, bring them out of this city.
13 nítorí a ó pa ìlú yìí run, nítorí igbe iṣẹ́ búburú wọn ń dí púpọ̀ níwájú Olúwa, Olúwa sì rán wa láti pa á run.”
For we will eliminate this place, because the outcry among them has increased before the Lord, who sent us to destroy them.”
14 Nígbà náà ni Lọti jáde, ó sì wí fún àwọn àna rẹ̀ ọkùnrin tí ó ti bá jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ láti fẹ́ àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ẹ ṣe kánkán, kí ẹ jáde ní ìlú yìí, nítorí Olúwa fẹ́ pa ìlú yìí run!” Ṣùgbọ́n àwọn ọkọ ọmọ rẹ̀ wọ̀nyí rò pé àwàdà ló ń ṣe.
And so Lot, going out, spoke to his sons-in-law, who were going to receive his daughters, and he said: “Rise up. Depart from this place. For the Lord will destroy this city.” And it seemed to them that he was speaking playfully.
15 Ní àfẹ̀mọ́júmọ́, àwọn angẹli náà rọ Lọti pé, “Ṣe wéré, mú aya rẹ àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ méjèèjì tí ó wà níhìn-ín, àìṣe bẹ́ẹ̀, ìwọ yóò parun pẹ̀lú ìlú yìí nígbà tí wọ́n bá ń jìyà ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn.”
And when it was morning, the Angels compelled him, saying, “Arise, take your wife, and the two daughters that you have, lest you also should perish amid the wickedness of the city.”
16 Nígbà tí ó ń jáfara, àwọn ọkùnrin náà nawọ́ mú un lọ́wọ́, wọ́n sì nawọ́ mú aya rẹ̀ náà lọ́wọ́ àti àwọn ọmọbìnrin rẹ̀ méjèèjì, wọ́n sì mú wọn jáde sẹ́yìn odi ìlú, nítorí Olúwa ṣàánú fún wọn.
And, since he ignored them, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, as well as that of his two daughters, because the Lord was sparing him.
17 Ní kété tí wọ́n mú wọn jáde sẹ́yìn odi tán, ọ̀kan nínú wọn wí pé, “Sá àsálà fún ẹ̀mí rẹ! Má ṣe wo ẹ̀yìn rẹ, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ìwọ kí ó má ṣe dúró ní gbogbo pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀! Sá àsálà lọ sí orí òkè, kí ìwọ ó má ba ṣègbé!”
And they brought him out, and placed him beyond the city. And there they spoke to him, saying: “Save your life. Do not look back. Neither should you stay in the entire surrounding region. But save yourself in the mountain, lest you also should perish.”
18 Ṣùgbọ́n Lọti wí fún wọn pé, “Rárá, ẹ̀yin Olúwa mi, ẹ jọ̀wọ́!
And Lot said to them: “I beg you, my lord,
19 Nígbà tí ìránṣẹ́ rẹ ti rí ojúrere rẹ, tí o sì ti fi àánú rẹ hàn nípa gbígba ẹ̀mí mi là, èmi kò le è sálọ sórí òkè, kí búburú yìí má ba à lé mi bá, kí n sì kú.
though your servant has found grace before you, and you have magnified your mercy, which you have shown to me in saving my life, I cannot be saved on the mountain, lest perhaps some misfortune take hold of me and I die.
20 Wò ó, ìlú kékeré kan nìyí ní tòsí láti sá sí: jẹ́ kí n sálọ síbẹ̀, ìlú kékeré ha kọ́? Ẹ̀mí mi yóò sì yè.”
There is a certain city nearby, to which I can flee; it is a little one, and I will be saved in it. Is it not a modest one, and will not my soul live?”
21 Ó sì wí fún un pé, “Ó dára, mo gba ẹ̀bẹ̀ rẹ. Èmi kì yóò run ìlú náà tí ìwọ sọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
And he said to him: “Behold, even now, I have heard your petitions about this, not to overturn the city on behalf of which you have spoken.
22 Tètè! Sálọ síbẹ̀, nítorí èmi kò le ṣe ohun kan àyàfi tí ó bá dé ibẹ̀.” (ìdí nìyí tí a fi ń pe ìlú náà ní Soari).
Hurry and be saved there. For I cannot do anything until you enter there.” For this reason, the name of that city is called Zoar.
23 Nígbà tí Lọti yóò fi dé ìlú Soari, oòrùn ti yọ.
The sun had risen over the land, and Lot had entered into Zoar.
24 Nígbà náà ni Olúwa rọ̀jò iná àti sulfuru sórí Sodomu àti Gomorra láti ọ̀run lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa wá.
Therefore, the Lord rained upon Sodom and Gomorrah sulphur and fire, from the Lord, out of heaven.
25 Báyìí ni ó run àwọn ìlú náà àti gbogbo ilẹ̀ pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, pẹ̀lú gbogbo àwọn tí ó wà ní ìlú ńlá ńlá wọ̀n-ọn-nì àti ohun gbogbo tí ó hù jáde nílẹ̀.
And he overturned these cities, and all the surrounding region: all the inhabitants of the cities, and everything that springs from the land.
26 Ṣùgbọ́n aya Lọti bojú wo ẹ̀yìn, ó sì di ọ̀wọ́n iyọ̀.
And his wife, looking behind herself, was turned into a statue of salt.
27 Ní kùtùkùtù òwúrọ̀ ọjọ́ kejì, Abrahamu sì dìde ó sì padà lọ sí ibi tí ó gbé dúró níwájú Olúwa.
Then Abraham, rising up in the morning, in the place where he had stood before with the Lord,
28 Ó sì wo ìhà Sodomu àti Gomorra àti àwọn ilẹ̀ pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì, ó sì rí èéfín tí ń ti ibẹ̀ jáde bí èéfín iná ìléru.
looked out toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and the entire land of that region. And he saw embers rising up from the land like smoke from a furnace.
29 Ọlọ́run sì rántí Abrahamu, nígbà tí ó run ìlú pẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀ wọ̀n-ọn-nì tan, ó sì mú Lọti jáde kúrò láàrín ìparun náà, tí ó kọlu ìlú tí Lọti ti gbé.
For when God overthrew the cities of that region, remembering Abraham, he freed Lot from the overthrow of the cities, in which he had dwelt.
30 Lọti àti àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀ obìnrin méjèèjì sì kúrò ní Soari, wọ́n sì ń lọ gbé ní orí òkè ní inú ihò àpáta, nítorí ó bẹ̀rù láti gbé ní ìlú Soari.
And Lot ascended from Zoar, and he stayed on the mountain, and likewise his two daughters with him, (for he was afraid to stay in Zoar) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.
31 Ní ọjọ́ kan, èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sọ fún àbúrò rẹ̀ pé, “Baba wa ti dàgbà, kò sì sí ọkùnrin kankan ní agbègbè yìí tí ìbá bá wa lòpọ̀, bí ìṣe gbogbo ayé.
And the elder said to the younger: “Our father is old, and no man remains in the land who can enter to us according to the custom of the whole world.
32 Wá, jẹ́ kí a mú baba wa mu ọtí yó, kí ó ba à le bá wa lòpọ̀, kí àwa kí ó lè bí ọmọ, kí ìran wa má ba à parẹ́.”
Come, let us inebriate him with wine, and let us sleep with him, so that we may be able to preserve offspring from our father.”
33 Ní òru ọjọ́ náà, wọ́n rọ baba wọn ní ọtí yó. Èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sì wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, baba wọn kò mọ̀ ìgbà tí ó sùn ti òun àti ìgbà tí ó dìde.
And so they gave their father wine to drink that night. And the elder went in, and she slept with her father. But he did not perceive it, neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.
34 Ní ọjọ́ kejì èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n wí fún àbúrò rẹ̀ pé, “Ní àná mo sùn ti baba mi. Jẹ́ kí a tún wọlé tọ̀ ọ́, kí a lè ní irú-ọmọ láti ọ̀dọ̀ baba wa.”
Likewise, the next day, the elder said to the younger: “Behold, yesterday I slept with my father, let us give him wine to drink yet again this night, and you will sleep with him, so that we may save offspring from our father.”
35 Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọ́n tún fún baba wọn ní ọtí mu yó ni alẹ́ ọjọ́ náà, èyí àbúrò náà sì wọlé tọ̀ ọ́ lọ, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀, kò sì tún mọ ìgbà tí ó wọlé sùn ti òun tàbí ìgbà tí ó dìde.
And then they gave their father wine to drink that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and slept with him. And not even then did he perceive when she lay down, or when she rose up.
36 Àwọn ọmọbìnrin Lọti méjèèjì sì lóyún fún baba wọn.
Therefore, the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.
37 Èyí ẹ̀gbọ́n sì bí ọmọkùnrin, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Moabu. Òun ni baba ńlá àwọn ará Moabu lónìí.
And the elder gave birth to a son, and she called his name Moab. He is the father of the Moabites, even to the present day.
38 Èyí àbúrò náà sì bí ọmọkùnrin, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Bene-Ami. Òun ni baba ńlá àwọn ará Ammoni lónìí.
Likewise, the younger gave birth to a son, and she called his name Ammon, that is, ‘the son of my people.’ He is the father of the Ammonites, even today.
