ZAJP
MNDEWA kamulawilila Ablaham behi na mibiki mikulu ya mwaloni ya munhu imwe yakemigwe Mamle kipigiti viyakalile hanhu ha kwingilila muihema yake mkipigiti cha keakea da imisi.
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD appeared to Abraham by the Oaks of Mamre in the heat of the day, while he was sitting at the entrance of his tent.
2
ZAJP
Ablaham kenula meso gake, kawona wanhu wadatu wema behi na heyo. Viyawawene, hima kalawa hanhu ha kwingilila muihema yake kawakimbilila na kuwafugamila mavindi kainamila mbaka hasi haulongozi wao.
BSB
BSB:
And Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he ran from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.
3
ZAJP
Kalonga, “Mndewa wangu, kamba nipata ngekewa hameso gako, sambiunibite mtumigwa wako.
BSB
BSB:
“My lord,” said Abraham, “if I have found favor in your sight, please do not pass your servant by.
4
ZAJP
Beta niwalagizile mazi mnave magulu genu, na muhumule hasi ya m'biki uno,
BSB
BSB:
Let a little water be brought, that you may wash your feet and rest yourselves under the tree.
5
ZAJP
niwagwelele kinhu cha kuja mpate mhiko abaho mgendelele na mwanza wenu, kwavija mmwizila mtumigwa wenu.” Na hewo walonga, “Tenda kamba vuulongile.”
BSB
BSB:
And I will bring a bit of bread so that you may refresh yourselves. This is why you have passed your servant’s way. After that, you may continue on your way.” “Yes,” they replied, “you may do as you have said.”
6
ZAJP
Ablaham hima kengila mdihema kamulongela Sala, “Hima, sola gunia da usage wako unogile woke mikate.”
BSB
BSB:
So Abraham hurried into the tent and said to Sarah, “Quick! Prepare three seahs of fine flour, knead it, and bake some bread.”
7
ZAJP
Abaho Ablaham kakimbila kuchola mdidale da ng'ombe, kasola mwanang'ombe yanonile na kumgwelela mtumigwa, na heyo kamchinja himahima na kumsasala.
BSB
BSB:
Meanwhile, Abraham ran to the herd, selected a tender and choice calf, and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it.
8
ZAJP
Ablaham kasola mtindi, matombo ga ng'ombe, na nyama ya mwanang'ombe iyamsasale, kawekila haulongozi wao. Kipigiti viwakalile woja, Ablaham kema behi nao, hasi ya um'biki.
BSB
BSB:
Then Abraham brought curds and milk and the calf that had been prepared, and he set them before the men and stood by them under the tree as they ate.
9
ZAJP
Abaho wamuuza, “Kakwahi mtwanzi wako Sala?” Na heyo kawedika, “Ka haja mgati ya idihema.”
BSB
BSB:
“Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked. “There, in the tent,” he replied.
10
ZAJP
Imwe mmwanza wao kamulongela Ablaham, “Kweli nokubwelela mkipigiti kamba kino cha mulao ukwiza, na mtwanzi wako Sala kowa na mwana.” Sala kakala hachugu chake yotegeleza, hanhu ha kwingilila mdihema.
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said, “I will surely return to you at this time next year, and your wife Sarah will have a son!” Now Sarah was behind him, listening at the entrance to the tent.
11
ZAJP
Ablaham na Sala wakala wavyele ng'hani, na kipigiti cha Sala kupata wana kikala kimalile.
BSB
BSB:
And Abraham and Sarah were already old and well along in years; Sarah had passed the age of childbearing.
12
ZAJP
Avo Sala kaseka munda kwa munda, yolonga, “Vodahikaze kikongwe kamba nie mhate ndeng'ha ino, ihawa na mbigalo wangu vivija m'vyele ng'hani?”
BSB
BSB:
So she laughed to herself, saying, “After I am worn out and my master is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13
ZAJP
Abaho MNDEWA kamuuza Ablaham, “Habali Sala yoseka na kulonga, ‘Kweli nie nodaha kupata mwana kipigiti kino cha uvyele?’
BSB
BSB:
And the LORD asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Can I really bear a child when I am old?’
14
ZAJP
Hana mbuli ileka kudahika ha MNDEWA? Nokubwelela mkipigiti kamba kino cha mulao ukwiza, na Sala kowa na mwana.”
BSB
BSB:
Is anything too difficult for the LORD? At the appointed time I will return to you—in about a year—and Sarah will have a son.”
15
ZAJP
Sala kadumba, avo kabela na kulonga, “Nie sisekile.” Ila heyo kamulongela, “Ona, kuseka.”
BSB
BSB:
But Sarah was afraid, so she denied it and said, “I did not laugh.” “No,” replied the LORD, “but you did laugh.”
16
ZAJP
Abaho waja iwanhu wenuka haja hawakalile, walongoza nzila ya Sodoma, na Ablaham kachola hamoja na hewo giladi yawasindikize.
BSB
BSB:
When the men got up to leave, they looked out over Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them off.
17
ZAJP
Abaho MNDEWA kalonga mngelegeza, “Nimfise Ablaham kija kinilonda kutenda?
BSB
BSB:
And the LORD said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?
18
ZAJP
Kwavija lukolo lwake lowa undewa wene mhiko, na kubitila heyo ndewa zose zili muisi zomotezwa.
BSB
BSB:
Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and through him all the nations of the earth will be blessed.
19
ZAJP
Nie nimsagula heyo giladi yawafundize wanage na wanhu wali mng'anda yake na waja wondawavumbuke hamwande kuigoga nzila yangu mkugatenda ganogile na galibule uzenzeleganye, giladi nie, MNDEWA, nizitende mbuli zose ziniilagane nayo.”
BSB
BSB:
For I have chosen him, so that he will command his children and his household after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just, in order that the LORD may bring upon Abraham what He has promised.”
20
ZAJP
Abaho MNDEWA kamulongela Ablaham, “Mbuli zihile za Sodoma na Gomola zibanza ng'hani na vilozo vao viwa vikulu ng'hani.
BSB
BSB:
Then the LORD said, “The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great. Because their sin is so grievous,
21
ZAJP
Nohumuluka hasi nilole kamba sang'hano zao zowotenda ziha kamba vija vinihulike. Kamba ihawa sio, novitanga.”
BSB
BSB:
I will go down to see if their actions fully justify the outcry that has reached Me. If not, I will find out.”
22
ZAJP
Abaho waja iwanhu wabili wahalawa wachola Sodoma, ila MNDEWA kasigala na Ablaham.
BSB
BSB:
And the two men turned away and went toward Sodom, but Abraham remained standing before the LORD.
23
ZAJP
Ablaham kamkwenhukila MNDEWA kamuuza, “Kweli kom'bananga munhu yalibule uzenzeleganye hamoja na munhu yali na uzenzeleganye?
BSB
BSB:
Abraham stepped forward and said, “Will You really sweep away the righteous with the wicked?
24
ZAJP
Kamba hana wanhu malongo matano mdiwambo walibule uzenzeleganye, kodibananga wambo jose? Huleka kudibananga idiwambo giladi wanhu waja malongo matano wakomboligwe?
BSB
BSB:
What if there are fifty righteous ones in the city? Will You really sweep it away and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty righteous ones who are there?
25
ZAJP
Sambiutende kamba avo, kumkoma munhu yalibule uzenzeleganye hamoja na munhu yali na uzenzeleganye, ama kumtendela munhu yalibule uzenzeleganye galingile na gaja ga munhu yali na uzenzeleganye. Sambiutende avo, Mulamula wa ulumwengu wose halondigwa yawebule uzenzeleganye?”
BSB
BSB:
Far be it from You to do such a thing—to kill the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous and the wicked are treated alike. Far be it from You! Will not the Judge of all the earth do what is right?”
26
ZAJP
MNDEWA kalonga, “Kamba nihawavika wanhu malongo matano walibule uzenzeleganye mdiwambo da Sodoma, wambo jose nodileka kudibananga sama yao.”
BSB
BSB:
So the LORD replied, “If I find fifty righteous ones within the city of Sodom, on their account I will spare the whole place.”
27
ZAJP
Ablaham kamuuza mwanza uyagwe, “Chonde, Mndewa, nigele kumgongo avija vinigendelela kukuuza, nie si kinhu, ila timbwisi na mitozi.
BSB
BSB:
Then Abraham answered, “Now that I have ventured to speak to the Lord—though I am but dust and ashes—
28
ZAJP
Ila kamba uhawavika wanhu malongo mane na watano walibule uzenzeleganye, kodibananga idiwambo kwavija viwahunguke wanhu watano?” MNDEWA kamwidika, “Kamba nihawavika wanhu malongo mane na watano walibule uzenzeleganye, sidibananga.”
BSB
BSB:
suppose the fifty righteous ones lack five. Will You destroy the whole city for the lack of five?” He replied, “If I find forty-five there, I will not destroy it.”
29
ZAJP
Ablaham kamuuza mwanza uyagwe, “Vilihi kamba uhawavika wanhu malongo mane?” MNDEWA kamwidika, “Sidibananga idiwambo kamba nihawavika wanhu malongo mane.”
BSB
BSB:
Once again Abraham spoke to the LORD, “Suppose forty are found there?” He answered, “On account of the forty, I will not do it.”
30
ZAJP
Ablaham kalonga, “Chonde, sambiwone lusango, Mndewa, ila leka nikuuze mwanza uyagwe. Vilihi kamba uhawavika wanhu malongo madatu weiyeka walibule uzenzeleganye?” MNDEWA kamwidika, “Sidibananga idiwambo kamba nihawavika wanhu malongo madatu.”
BSB
BSB:
Then Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak further. Suppose thirty are found there?” He replied, “If I find thirty there, I will not do it.”
31
ZAJP
Ablaham kalonga, “Chonde, Mndewa, nigele kumgongo avija vunigendelela kukuuza. Vilihi kamba uhawavika wanhu malongo mabili walibule uzenzeleganye?” MNDEWA kamwidika, “Sidibananga idiwambo kamba nihawavika wanhu malongo mabili walibule uzenzeleganye.”
BSB
BSB:
And Abraham said, “Now that I have ventured to speak to the Lord, suppose twenty are found there?” He answered, “On account of the twenty, I will not destroy it.”
32
ZAJP
Ablaham kalonga, “Chonde, sambiwone lusango, Mndewa, nokuuza mwanza uno tu. Vilihi kamba uhawavika wanhu longo dimwe weiyeka walibule uzenzeleganye?” MNDEWA kamwidika, “Sidibananga idiwambo kamba nihawavika wanhu longo dimwe walibule uzenzeleganye.”
BSB
BSB:
Finally, Abraham said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak once more. Suppose ten are found there?” And He answered, “On account of the ten, I will not destroy it.”
33
ZAJP
Viyeshile kulonga na Ablaham, MNDEWA kachola, na Ablaham kabwela ukae.
BSB
BSB:
When the LORD had finished speaking with Abraham, He departed, and Abraham returned home.
