Genesis 19
1 And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
Pea naʻe haʻu ʻae ʻāngelo ʻe toko ua ki Sotoma kuo efiafi; pea naʻe nofo ʻa Lote ʻi he matapā ʻo Sotoma, pea mamata ʻa Lote, pea tuʻu hake ia ʻo ʻalu ke fakafetaulaki kiate kinaua: pea naʻa ne punou ia mo hono mata ki he kelekele.
2 And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and all of you shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.
Pea pehē ʻe ia, “Ongo ʻeiki, mo vakai mai, ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoua, mo afe ki he fale ʻo ho mo tamaioʻeiki ʻo nofo ʻi he poōni, pea fufulu ho mo vaʻe, pea te mo tuʻu hengihengi hake pe, pea ō ʻi homo fononga. Pea naʻa na pehē, “E ʻikai; ka te mā nofo ʻi he hala he poōni.”
3 And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they did eat.
Pea kole fakamātoato ia kiate kinaua; pea na afe ai kiate ia, ō hū ki hono fale; pea naʻa ne teu ʻena kai, pea taʻo ʻae mā taʻemeʻafakatupu, pea ne na kai.
4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
Pea naʻe teʻeki te na tokoto, mo ʻene haʻu ʻae kau tangata ʻoe kolo, ʻio, ʻae kau tangata ʻo Sotoma, ʻo nau kāpui ʻae fale, ʻae kau mātuʻa mo e talavou, ʻae kakai kotoa pē mei he potu kehekehe.
5 And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to you this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
Pea naʻa nau ui kia Lote ʻo pehē kiate ia, “Kofaʻā ia ʻae ongo tangata naʻe omi kiate koe he poōni? ʻOmi ʻakinaua kituʻa kiate kimautolu ke mau ʻilo ʻakinaua.”
6 And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,
Pea ʻalu kituaʻā Lote ʻi he matapā kiate kinautolu, pea tāpuni ʻe ia ʻae matapā ʻi hono tuʻa,
7 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
Pea ne pehē, “ʻOku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ʻe kāinga, ʻoua te mou fai ʻae kovi pehē ni.
8 Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do all of you to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.
Vakai mai, ʻoku ai hoku ongo ʻofefine ʻoku teʻeki ai te na ʻilo ha tangata; ʻoku ou kole kiate kimoutolu, ke u ʻomi ʻakinaua kiate kimoutolu, pea mou fai kiate kinaua, ʻaia ʻoku lelei kiate kimoutolu kaeʻoua te mou fai ha meʻa ki he ongo tangata ni; he ko ia kuo na omi ai ki he malu ʻo hoku fale.”
9 And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will essentially be a judge: now will we deal worse with you, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
Pea naʻa nau pehē, “Tuʻu atu. Pea nau toe pehē, Ko e siana ni naʻe haʻu ia ko e ʻāunofo, pea kuo fie hoko ia ko e fakamaau nai; pea ko eni te mau fai kovi lahi kiate koe, ʻiate kinaua.” Pea naʻa nau feʻohofi mai ʻo tataʻo ʻae tangata ko Lote, pea naʻe meimei maumau ʻae matapā.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.
Ka naʻe mafao atu ʻae ongo tangata hona nima ʻo toho mai ʻa Lote ki he fale kiate kinaua, pea tāpuni ʻae matapā.
11 And they stroke the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great: so that they wearied themselves to find the door.
Pea na taaʻi ʻaki ʻae kui, ʻae kau tangata naʻe ʻi he matapā ʻoe fale, ʻae siʻi mo e lalahi: ko ia naʻa nau fiu ʻi he kumi ʻae matapā.
12 And the men said unto Lot, Have you here any besides? son in law, and your sons, and your daughters, and whatsoever you have in the city, bring them out of this place:
Pea pehē ʻe he ongo tangata kia Lote, “ʻOku ai hao kāinga ʻi he potu ni? Ko ho foha ʻi he fono, mo ho ngaahi foha, mo ho ngaahi ʻofefine, mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ke maʻu ʻi he kolo ni fetuku mei he potu ni.
13 For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is becoming great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD has sent us to destroy it.
He te ma fakaʻauha ʻae potu ni, koeʻuhi kuo hoko ʻo lahi ʻaupito ʻa ʻenau tangi ki he ʻao ʻo Sihova; pea kuo fekauʻi ʻakimaua ʻe Sihova, ke fakaʻauha ia,”
14 And Lot went out, and spoke unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.
Pea naʻe ʻalu kituʻa ʻa Lote ʻo lea ki hono ngaahi foha ʻi he fono, ʻaia naʻe uaifi mo hono ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻo ne pehē kiate kinautolu, “Tuʻu hake, hola mei he potu ni; koeʻuhi ʻe fakaʻauha ʻe Sihova ʻae kolo ni;” ka naʻe hangē ia ko ha tokotaha ʻoku luma, ki hono ngaahi foha ʻi he fono.
15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take your wife, and your two daughters, which are here; lest you be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
Pea pongipongi hake ai, naʻe fakavave ʻa Lote ʻe he ongo ʻāngelo, ʻo pehē, “Tuʻu ʻo ʻave ho uaifi mo ho ongo ʻofefine ʻoku ʻi heni; telia naʻa ʻauha koe ʻi he angahala ʻae kolo.”
16 And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city.
Pea ʻi heʻene fakatuotuai, naʻe puke hono nima ʻe he ongo tangata, pea mo e nima ʻo hono uaifi, pea mo e nima ʻo hono ongo ʻofefine; naʻe ʻaloʻofa ʻa Sihova kiate ia; pea naʻa na ʻomi ia kituʻa, ʻo tuku ia ʻi he tuaʻā kolo.
17 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for your life; look not behind you, neither stay you in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest you be consumed.
Pea hili ʻena ʻomi ʻakinautolu kituaʻā, pea pehē ʻe ia, “Hola ke ke moʻui ai, ʻoua naʻa ke sio ki mui, pe mālōlō ʻi he tokalelei kotoa pē, mole atu ki he moʻunga, telia naʻa ke ʻauha.”
18 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my LORD:
Pea pehēange ʻe Lote kiate kinaua, “Ke ʻoua naʻa pehē ʻeku ʻEiki!
19 Behold now, your servant has found grace in your sight, and you have magnified your mercy, which you have showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:
Vakai, kuo ʻofeina ʻa hoʻo tamaioʻeiki ʻi ho ʻao, Pea kuo ke fakaongo lahi hoʻo ʻaloʻofa, ʻaia kuo ke fakahā kiate au, ʻi hoʻo fakamoʻui au: pea ʻe ʻikai te u faʻa lava ki he moʻunga, telia naʻa hoko ai ha kovi kiate au, peau mate.
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
Vakai, mai ko e kolo ni ʻoku ofi ke hola ki ai, pea ʻoku siʻi ia; ʻofa ke u hola ki ai, (ʻikai ko e siʻi ia?) Pea ʻe moʻui ai hoku laumālie.
21 And he said unto him, See, I have accepted you concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which you have spoken.
Pea ne pehē kiate ia, “Vakai, kuo u tokanga kiate koe ʻi he meʻa ni foki, pea ʻe ʻikai te u fakaʻauha ʻae kolo ni ʻaia kuo ke kole ki ai.
22 Haste you, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till you be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
Fakatoʻotoʻo ʻo hola ki ai; he ʻoku ʻikai teu faʻa fai ha meʻa, kaeʻoua ke ke hoko ki ai;” Ko ia naʻe ui ai hono hingoa ʻoe kolo ko ia ko Soa.
23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
Naʻe hoko ʻa Lote ki Soa, kuo hopo ʻae laʻā ki māmani.
24 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
Pea naʻe fakaʻuha ʻe Sihova ki Sotoma mo Komola, ʻae makavela mo e afi mei ʻa Sihova ʻi he langi.
25 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
Pea ne fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi kolo ko ia, mo e fonua tokalelei kotoa pē, pea mo e kakai kotoa pē ʻoe ngaahi kolo, pea mo e ngaahi meʻa naʻe tupu ʻi he kelekele.
26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
Ka naʻe hanga ki mui hono uaifi, ʻi heʻene muimui ʻiate ia, pea naʻe liliu ia ko e pou māsima.
27 And Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:
Pea naʻe ʻalu hengihengi hake pe ʻa ʻEpalahame ki he potu naʻe tuʻu ai ia ʻi he ʻao ʻo Sihova.
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
Pea ne sio atu ki Sotoma mo Komola, pea ki he fonua kotoa pē ʻoe tokalelei, pea ne mamata, pea vakai naʻe ʻalu hake ʻae kohu ʻoe fonua, ʻo hangē ko e kohu ʻoe pupuʻa afi.
29 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
Pea ʻi he fakaʻauha ʻe he ʻOtua ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻoe toafa, naʻe pehē ʻa ʻene manatuʻi ʻe he ʻOtua ʻa ʻEpalahame, ʻo ne fekau ʻa Lote mei he lotolotonga ʻoe ʻauha, ʻi heʻene fakaʻauha ʻae ngaahi kolo ʻaia naʻe nofo ai ʻa Lote.
30 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
Pea naʻe ʻalu ʻa Lote mei Soa, mo hono ongo ʻofefine ʻo nau nofo ʻi he moʻunga: he naʻe manavahē ia ke nofo ʻi Soa; pea nofo ia ʻi he ʻanaʻi maka, ʻaia mo hono ongo ʻofefine.
31 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
Pea pehē ʻe he taʻokete ki he tehina, “Kuo motuʻa ʻeta tamai, pea ʻoku ʻikai ha tangata ʻi māmani ke haʻu kiate kitaua, ʻo hangē ko e anga ʻo māmani.
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
Ke ta fakainu uaine ʻe ta tamai, pea te ta mohe mo ia, koeʻuhi ke ai ha hako ʻi he ʻe ta tamai.”
33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
Pea naʻa na fakainu uaine ʻena tamai ʻi he pō ko ia; pea ʻalu ʻae taʻokete ʻo mohe mo ʻene tamai: pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ʻene tokoto hifo, pe ko ʻene toetuʻu hake.
34 And it came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay last night with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go you in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
Pea pongipongi ai, naʻe pehē ʻae lea ʻae ʻuluaki ki he tehina, “Vakai, naʻaku mohe ʻanepō ki heʻeku tamai; pea ke ta fakainu uaine ia he poōni foki; pea ke ʻalu kiate ia ke mo mohe, koeʻuhi ke ai ha hako ʻi heʻeta tamai.”
35 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay down, nor when she arose.
Pea naʻa na fakainu uaine ʻena tamai ʻi he pō ko ia foki; pea ʻalu ange ʻae tehina, ʻo mohe mo ia pea naʻe ʻikai te ne ʻilo ʻene tokoto hifo, pe ko ʻene tuʻu hake.
36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
Pea feitama ai fakatouʻosi pe ʻae ongo ʻofefine ʻo Lote ki heʻena tamai.
37 And the first born bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
Pea fanauʻi ʻe he ʻuluaki ʻae tama, pea ne ui hono hingoa ko Moape, ko e tamai ia ʻae kakai Moape, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
38 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
Pea fanauʻi foki ʻe he tehina ʻae tama, pea ne ui ia ko Peniami: ʻaia ko e tamai ʻae ngaahi fānau ʻa ʻAmoni, ʻo aʻu ki he ʻaho ni.
