< Genesis 19 >

1 The two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening. Lot happened to be sitting at the entrance to Sodom, and when he saw them he stood up to meet them, and bowed low with his face to the ground.
Un tie divi eņģeļi vakarā nonāca Sodomā, un Lats sēdēja Sodomas vārtos. Un tos ieraudzījis Lats cēlās un gāja tiem pretī un nometās uz savu vaigu pie zemes
2 “Sirs, please come and stay with me for the night,” he said. “You can wash your feet and then be on your way early in the morning.” They replied, “No, it's fine. We'll spend the night here in the square.”
Un sacīja: redzi, mani kungi, ņemiet lūdzami mājas vietu pie sava kalpa un palieciet šo nakti un mazgājiet savas kājas; tad rītā cēlušies varat iet savu ceļu. Un tie sacīja: nē, bet mēs gribam palikt pa nakti uz ielas.
3 But Lot insisted, and they went with him to his house. He made them a meal and baked bread for them to eat.
Bet viņš tos lūgdams lūdza, lai tie pie viņa mājotu; un tie iegāja viņa namā, un viņš tiem taisīja mielastu, cepdams neraudzētas karašas, un tie ēda.
4 But they hadn't even gone to bed before the men of Sodom, young and old, from every part of town, came and surrounded the house.
Pirms ne kā tie apgūlās, Sodomas pilsētas ļaudis apstāja to namu, jauni un veci, viss tas pulks no visām malām,
5 They shouted out to Lot, “Where are the men who came to stay with you tonight? Bring them out here to us so we can have sex with them.”
Un aicināja Latu un sacīja uz to: kur tie vīri, kas šo nakti pie tevis nākuši? Izved tos pie mums ārā, ka tos atzīstam.
6 Lot went out to talk to them in the doorway, closing the door behind him.
Tad Lats izgāja pie tiem ārā priekš durvīm, un aizslēdza durvis aiz sevis un sacīja:
7 “My friends, please don't do such an evil thing!
Brāļi, nedariet jel tādu grēku.
8 Listen, I've got two virgin daughters. Let me bring them out to you, and you can do to them whatever you want, but please don't do anything to these men. It's my responsibility to look after them.”
Redziet, man ir divas meitas, kas nav atzinušas vīra, tās izvedīšu pie jums, un dariet ar tām, kā patīk, - tikai šiem vīriem nedariet nekā, jo tāpēc tie nākuši mana jumta pavēnī.
9 “Out of our way!” they shouted. “Who do you think you are, coming to live here and now trying to judge us? We'll do even worse things to you than we were going to do to these men!” They rushed forward at Lot and tried to break down the door.
Tad tie sacīja: atkāpies nost! Un tie sacīja: šis viens ir atnācis kā svešinieks un grib valdīt? Nu tev vairāk ļauna darīsim nekā viņiem.
10 But the men inside reached out and grabbed Lot, dragged him inside, and slammed the door shut.
Un mākdamies tie mācās virsū tam vīram, Latam, un nāca durvis uzlauzt. Bet tie vīri izstiepa ārā savu roku un ierāva Latu pie sevis namā un aizslēdza durvis,
11 Then they made all the men in the doorway, young and old, suddenly go blind so they couldn't find the door.
Un apstulboja tos ļaudis priekš nama durvīm, mazos un lielos, tā ka tie piekusa pēc durvīm grābstīdamies.
12 The two men asked Lot, “Is there anyone else here who's part of your family—sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or anyone else in the town? If there are, make sure they leave,
Tad tie vīri sacīja uz Latu: vai tev še vēl kāds znots vai dēli vai meitas vai cits kāds, kas tev pieder šai pilsētā, - izved tos no šās vietas.
13 because we are about to destroy this place. The complaints that have reached the Lord about its people have become so bad that he has sent us to destroy it.”
Jo mēs samaitāsim šo vietu, tāpēc ka tā brēkšana par viņu ir liela Tā Kunga priekšā, un Tas Kungs mūs ir sūtījis to samaitāt.
14 Lot went immediately to speak to the men who were engaged to marry his daughters. “Get up quickly and leave,” he said, “because the Lord is about to destroy the town!” But they thought it was just a joke.
Un Lats izgāja un runāja uz saviem znotiem, kas viņa meitas gribēja apņemt, un sacīja: ceļaties un ejat ārā no šās vietas, jo Tas Kungs samaitās šo pilsētu. Bet tiem znotiem viņš izlikās tā kā smieklus runājot.
15 At dawn, the angels begged Lot to be quick, telling him, “Hurry up! Leave right now with your wife and your two daughters here, otherwise you'll be wiped out when the city is punished.”
Un kad gaisma ausa, tad tie eņģeļi Latu skubināja sacīdami: celies, ņem savu sievu un savas divas meitas, kas tev ir, ka tu neietu bojā šīs pilsētas noziegumā.
16 But Lot hesitated. The men grabbed his hand, and those of his wife and two daughters, and dragged them along, leaving them outside the town. The Lord was kind to them to do this.
Bet viņš kavējās; un tie vīri satvēra viņa roku un viņa sievas roku un viņa divēju meitu roku, tāpēc ka Tas Kungs viņu žēloja, un tie to izveda un to palaida ārpus pilsētas.
17 As soon as they were outside, one of the men said, “Run for your lives! Don't look back, and don't stop anywhere in the valley! Run to the mountains otherwise you'll be destroyed!”
Un kad tie tos bija izveduši ārā, tad viņš sacīja: Izglāb jel savu dzīvību, neskaties atpakaļ un nestāvi nekur šinī klajumā; glābies kalnā, ka neej bojā.
18 “Please sir, not that!” Lot replied.
Un Lats sacīja uz tiem: ak nē, Kungs!
19 “If you don't mind, since you have already been so kind to me by saving my life, don't make me run to the mountains—I just can't make it. The destruction will overtake me and I'll die!
Redzi jel, tavs kalps ir atradis žēlastību tavās acīs, un varen liela ir tava žēlošana, ko tu man esi darījis, izglābdams manu dzīvību; bet es nespēju glābties kalna galā, lai man ļaunums neuznāk un es nemirstu.
20 Look, there's a town nearby that's close enough to run to, and it's so small. Please let me run there—it's really very small. It would save my life.”
Redzi jel, šī pilsēta ir tuvu klāt, uz turieni bēgt, un tā ir maza; tur es gribu glābties, - vai tā nav maza? - Ka es palieku dzīvs.
21 “Fine—I'll do as you ask,” he replied. “I won't destroy this town you've mentioned.
Un viņš uz to sacīja: redzi, arī šinī lietā es tevi esmu uzlūkojis, ka es nesamaitāšu to pilsētu, par ko tu esi runājis.
22 But hurry up and run there quickly, because I can't do anything until you get there.” (This is why the town was called Zoar.)
Steidzies, glābies turp, jo es nekā nevaru darīt, tiekams tu uz turieni neesi nonācis. Tādēļ tās pilsētas vārdu sauc Coāru (t.i. maza).
23 The sun had already risen by the time Lot reached Zoar.
Saule uzlēca pār zemi, kad Lats nonāca Coārā.
24 Then the Lord rained down fire and burning sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.
Un Tas Kungs lika līt sēram un ugunij uz Sodomu un Gomoru no Tā Kunga, no debesīm.
25 He completely destroyed the towns and all their inhabitants, the whole valley and everything growing there.
Un viņš izpostīja tās pilsētas un visu to apgabalu un visus to pilsētu iedzīvotājus, ir zemes augļus.
26 But Lot's wife, who was lagging behind, looked back, and she turned into a pillar of salt.
Un viņa sieva skatījās atpakaļ un palika par sālsstabu.
27 Abraham got up early the next morning and went back to where he had stood before the Lord.
Un Ābraams cēlās it agri uz to vietu, kur viņš bija stāvējis priekš Tā Kunga vaiga,
28 He looked down at Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley floor, and saw the land burning, sending up smoke like from a furnace.
Un skatījās uz Sodomas un Gomoras pusi un uz visu to apgabalu, un redzi, dūmi cēlās no zemes, tā kā kāda cepļa dūmi.
29 When God destroyed the towns of the valley he didn't forget the promise he made Abraham, and he saved Lot from the destruction of the towns where Lot was living.
Un notikās, kad Dievs šī apgabala pilsētas samaitāja, tad viņš pieminēja Ābrahāmu un izveda Latu no tā posta, kad viņš tās pilsētas izpostīja, kur Lats mita.
30 Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, so he left town and went to live in a cave in the mountains with his two daughters.
Un Lats gāja no Coāras uz augšu un mita kalnos, un viņa divas meitas līdz ar viņu; jo viņam bija bail Coārā mist; un viņš dzīvoja kādā alā līdz ar savām abām meitām.
31 Sometime later the older daughter said to the younger one, “Our father is growing old, and there's no men left to give us children like everyone does.
Un tā pirmdzimušā sacīja uz to jaunāko: mūsu tēvs ir vecs, un vīra nav virs zemes, kas pie mums nāktu pēc visas pasaules ieraduma.
32 Come on, let's get our father drunk with wine and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
Nāc, dosim savam tēvam vīnu dzert un gulēsim pie tā un paturēsim dzīvu dzimumu no sava tēva.
33 So they got their father drunk with wine that night. The older daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
Un tās deva savam tēvam vīnu dzert tanī naktī, un tā pirmdzimušā nāca un gulēja pie sava tēva, un viņš to nenomanīja, kad tā apgūlās, nedz kad tā cēlās.
34 The next day the older daughter said to the younger one, “Last night I slept with our father. Let's get him drunk with wine again tonight and you can go and sleep with him so we can keep his family line going.”
Un no rīta tā pirmdzimušā sacīja uz to jaunāko: redzi, izgājušo nakti es esmu gulējusi pie sava tēva; dosim viņam arī šo nakti vīnu dzert, tad ieej tu un guli pie tā, ka dzimumu gādājam no sava tēva.
35 So once again that night they got their father drunk with wine and the younger daughter went and slept with him, and he didn't notice when she lay down or when she got up.
Un tās arī tanī naktī deva savam tēvam vīnu dzert, un tā jaunākā cēlās un gulēja pie tā, un tas nenomanīja, kad tā apgūlās, nedz kad tā cēlās.
36 This is how both Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
Un Lata abas meitas tapa grūtas no sava tēva.
37 The older daughter had a son, and she called him Moab. He is the ancestor of the Moabites of today.
Un tā pirmdzimušā dzemdēja dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Moabs, šis ir Moabiešu tēvs līdz šai dienai.
38 The younger daughter had a son too, and she called him Ben-ammi. He is the ancestor of the Ammonites of today.
Un tā jaunākā dzemdēja arī dēlu un nosauca viņa vārdu Ben-Ammi: šis ir Amona bērnu tēvs līdz šai dienai.
