Uulunde waSodom
1 Pethimbo lyongulohi aayengeli yaali oya thiki kuSodom, naLot okwa li a kuutumba peelo lyoshilando. Sho e ya mono, okwa thikama, e ke ya tsakaneke. 2 Okwi ihata po a tsa oshipala mevi e ta ti: “Ootatekulu, ngame omupiya gweni. Ileni maandjetu, mu iyoge koompadhi e tatu tokelweni. Ongula otamu penduka moontundumene, mu tsikile ondjila yeni.”
Ihe yo oya yamukula ya ti: “Aawe, uusiku otatu ke u lala pondje momapandaanda.”
3 Lot okwa dhiginine oku ya thiminika, nahugunina oya yi naye maandjawo. Lot okwe ya longekidhile iikulya. Okwe ya ningile oshikwiila inaashi fulikwa e taa li.
4 Aayenda manga inaa ka lala, aalumentu Aasodomu, aagundjuka naakokele, oye ya ya zi koombinga adhihe dhoshilando e taa kundukidha egumbo. 5 Oyi ithana Lot e taye mu pula: “Aalumentu mboka ya tokelwa maandjeni, oye li peni? Ya piitha mo, ye ye kutse, tse tu lale nayo.”
6 Lot okwa piti mo e ta yi kuyo pondje nokwe edhile po omweelo. 7 Okwa ti kuyo: “Ookuume, otandi mu galikana, inamu longa iihuna yi thike mpoka! 8 Taleni, ondi na aakadhona yaali inaaya lala nando nomulumentu. Otandi ya eta kune e tamu ningi, ngaashi mwa hala. Ihe aalumentu mbaka inamu ya hinda. Oyo aayenda maandjetu, nondi na oku ya popila.”
9 Ihe oya yamukula: “Za po putse! Omuntu nguka omukwiilongo, ihe nena okwa hala i ininge omupangeli. Otatu vulu tu ku ninge nayi shi vulithe pumboka.” Oyu undula Lot noya hala okuteya po omweelo. 10 Ihe aalumentu yaali ya li meni, oya hilile Lot megumbo e taa pata omweelo. 11 Nena aayenda mbaka oya tsikitha aantu ayehe ya li pondje e taa kala taa kongo osheelo osima.
Lot ta zi muSodom
12 Aalumentu yaali oya lombwele Lot ya ti: “Ngele ou na aakweni muka, aamwoye aamati nenge aakadhona, iitenya nenge aakwanezimo ya kala muka, ya lombwela ya tembuke mo, 13 oshoka otatu ka hanagula po ehala ndika. Omuwa oku uvu onkugo ondhigu molwaantu mbaka nokwe tu tumu, tu hanagule po Sodom.” 14 Nena Lot okwa yi kiitenya ye mbyoka ya li yi na okuhokana oyanakadhona e ta ti: “Endeleleni, oshoka Omuwa ota ka hanagula po oshilando.” Ihe oya tala kutya ota ningi omashendjo.
15 Eluwa sho tali tende, aayengeli oya kambadhala okuulumika Lot e taa ti: “Yambuka! Kutha mukadhoye naamwoyekadhona yaali, mu ye ontuku, opo mwaa yonukile mumwe noshilando, sho tashi geelwa.” 16 Lot sho a li ta kakadhala, aalumentu oye mu kwata mokwooko, nomukadhi noyanakadhona yaali, e taye ya pititha mo moshilando, oshoka Omuwa okwa li e ya uvitile ohenda.
17 Nena gumwe gwomaayengeli okwa ti: “Fadhukii po, mu ka hupithe oomwenyo dheni. Inamu tala konima ne inamu thikama molusilu nduka. Matukileni koondundu, opo mwaa dhipagwe.”
18 Lot okwa yamukula a ti: “Aawe, Omuwa gwandje. 19 Owa longele ndje uuwanawa uunene nowa hupitha omwenyo gwandje. Oondundu odhi li kokule unene, itandi adha ko; ehanagulo otali adha ndje e te si. 20 Ku wete okalando heya okashona? Oke li popepi hwepo. Pitika ndje, ndi ye hoka — okashona unene, hasho? Ihe ote hupitha omwenyo gwandje.”
21 Omuwa okwa yamukula a ti: “Eewa ano, nda zimine. Okalando hoka itandi ka hanagula po. 22 Endelela! Matuka! Ite vulu okuninga sha, manga inoo thika ko.”
Okalando hoka noka lukwa Zoar.
Ehanagulo lyaSodom naGomorra
23 Lot sho a thiki muZoar, lyo etango otali piti. 24 Ohaluka Omuwa okwa lokithile Sodom naGomorra osulufuli ya hwama 25 e ta hanagula po iilando mbyoka nolusilu aluhe pamwe naantu niimeno ayihe. 26 Ihe omukiintu gwaLot okwa tala konima e ta shituka oshaanda shomongwa.
27 Abraham okwa meneka ongula onene ta yi kehala nkoka a li koshipala shOmuwa. 28 Okwa ligamene lwokuSodom naGomorra nokolusilu aluhe e ta mono olwithi talu tsinagala koshilongo shoka lwa fa olwithi lweziko enenenene lyomulilo. 29 Ihe Kalunga sho a hanagula po iilando yomolusilu ndoka mwa kala Lot, okwa dhimbulukwa Abraham e ta hupitha Lot mehanagulo lyiilando mbyoka.
Aamoabi nAayammoni
30 Lot noyanakadhona oya tembuka mo muZoar, oshoka oya li ya tila okukala mo. Oya yi koondundu e taa kala mekololo. 31 Omukadhona osheeli okwa ti konkelo: “Tate okwa kulupa, naampaka kape na nando omulumentu e tu hokane po, opo tu vale aanona. 32 Tu pe tate omaviinu a kolwe, opo tu lale naye tse tu mone aanona.” 33 Ongulohi ndjoka oya pe he omaviinu, nomukadhona osheeli okwa lala naye. Ihe he sho a li a kolwa, ina dhimbulula po sha.
34 Mesiku lya landula omukadhona osheeli okwa ti konkelo: “Onda lala natate uusiku wa zi ko; natu mu pe a nwe ishewe uusiku wonena ngoye e to lala naye, opo tu imonene aanona mutate.”
35 Uusiku mboka oye mu kolitha ishewe, nomukadhona onkelo okwa lala naye. Natango he okwa li a kolwa ye ina tseya sha. 36 Pamukalo nguka aana yaLot ayehe yaali oya ningithwa aasimba kuhe. 37 Omukadhona osheeli okwa vala omumati e te mu luku Moab. Oye hekulu yAamoabi yongashingeyi. 38 Omukadhona onkelo okwa vala omumati ngoka e mu luku Benammi. Oye hekulu yAayammoni yongashingeyi.
