Gênesis 19
1 E vieram os dois anjos a Sodoma à tarde, e estava Lot assentado à porta de Sodoma; e vendo-os Lot, levantou-se ao seu encontro, e inclinou-se com o rosto à terra;
That evening, the two angels arrived in Sodom. Lot was sitting at the gateway of the city. When he saw them, he got up to greet them, and prostrated himself with his face on the ground.
2 E disse: Eis agora, meus senhores, entrai, peço-vos, em casa de vosso servo, e passai nela a noite, e lavai os vossos pés; e de madrugada vos levantareis, e ireis vosso caminho. E eles disseram: Não, antes na rua passaremos a noite.
He said to them, “Gentlemen, please stay in my house tonight. You can wash your feet, and tomorrow you can continue your journey.” But they said, “No, we will just sleep in the city square.”
3 E porfiou com eles muito, e vieram com ele, e entraram em sua casa: e fez-lhes banquete, e cozeu bolos sem levadura, e comeram.
But Lot kept insisting strongly that they sleep in his house. So they entered his house with him, and he prepared a meal for them. He baked some bread without yeast, and they ate it.
4 E antes que se deitassem, cercaram a casa, os varões daquela cidade, os varões de Sodoma, desde o moço até ao velho; todo o povo de todos os bairros.
After they finished eating, before they went to bed, the men of Sodom [city], all of them, from the young ones to the old ones, surrounded the house.
5 E chamaram a Lot, e disseram-lhe: Onde estão os varões que a ti vieram nesta noite? tra-los fora a nós, para que os conheçamos.
They called out to Lot, saying, “Where are the men who came to your house this evening? Bring them out, so that we can have sex with them!” [EUP]
6 Então saiu Lot a eles à porta, e fechou a porta atráz de si,
Lot went outside the house and shut the door behind him, so that they could not go inside.
7 E disse: Meus irmãos, rogo-vos que não façais mal:
He said to them, “My friends, don’t do such an evil thing!
8 Eis aqui, duas filhas tenho, que ainda não conheceram varão; fora vo-las trarei, e fareis delas como bom for nos vossos olhos; somente nada façais a estes varões, porque por isso vieram à sombra do meu telhado.
Listen to me. I have two daughters who have never had sex with any man. Let me bring them out to you now, and you can do with them whatever pleases you. But don’t do anything to these men, because they are guests in my house, [so I must protect them]!”
9 Eles porém disseram: sai dali. Disseram mais: Como estrangeiro este indivíduo veio aqui habitar, e quereria ser juiz em tudo? Agora te faremos mais mal a ti do que a eles. E arremessaram-se sobre o varão, sobre Lot, e aproximaram-se para arrombar a porta.
But they replied, “Get out of our way! You are a foreigner; so you have no right to tell us what is right! [If you don’t get out of our way], we will do worse things to you than we will do to them!” Then they lunged towards Lot, and tried forcefully to break down the door.
10 Aqueles varões porém estenderam a sua mão, e fizeram entrar a Lot consigo na casa, e fecharam a porta;
But the two angels opened the door carefully, reached out their hands, and pulled Lot to them inside the house. Then they quickly shut the door.
11 E feriram de cegueira os varões que estavam à porta da casa, desde o menor até ao maior, de maneira que se cançaram para achar a porta.
Then they caused all the men who were outside the door of the house, young and old, to become blind, so that they could not find the door.
12 Então disseram aqueles varões a Lot: Tens alguém mais aqui? teu genro, e teus filhos, e tuas filhas, e todos quantos tens nesta cidade, tira-os fora deste lugar;
Then the two angels said to Lot, “Who else is with you here? If you have sons or sons-in-law or daughters or anyone else in the city who is related to you, take them out of the city,
13 Porque nós vamos destruir este lugar, porque o seu clamor tem engrossado diante da face do Senhor, e o Senhor nos enviou a destruí-lo.
because we are the ones who are going to destroy this place. Yahweh considers that these people are so evil that he sent us to destroy the city.”
14 Então saiu Lot, e falou a seus genros, aos que haviam de tomar as suas filhas, e disse: levantai-vos, saí deste lugar; porque o Senhor há de destruir a cidade. Foi tido porém por zombador aos olhos de seus genros.
So Lot went and spoke to the men who had pledged to marry his daughters. He said to them, “Hurry! Get out of this city, because Yahweh is about to destroy it!” But his future sons-in-law thought he was joking.
15 E ao amanhecer os anjos apertaram com Lot, dizendo: Levanta-te, toma tua mulher, e tuas duas filhas que aqui estão, para que não pereças na injustiça desta cidade.
As it was about to dawn the next morning, the two angels urged Lot, saying, “Get up quickly! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here with you and leave! If you don’t, you will die when [we destroy/Yahweh destroys] the city!”
16 Ele porém demorava-se, e aqueles varões lhe pegaram pela mão, e pela mão de sua mulher, e pela mão de suas duas filhas, sendo-lhe o Senhor misericordioso, e tiraram-o, e puseram-no fora da cidade.
When Lot hesitated, the angels grasped his hand and his wife’s hand and the hands of his two daughters. They led them outside the city safely. The angels did that because Yahweh was acting mercifully toward them.
17 E aconteceu que, tirando-os fora, disse: Escapa-te por tua vida; não olhes para traz de ti, e não pares em toda esta campina; escapa lá para o monte, para que não pereças.
When they were outside the city, one of the angels said, “[If you want to remain alive], run away quickly! Don’t look back! And don’t stop anywhere in the valley! Flee to the hills! If you don’t, you will die!”
18 E Lot disse-lhe: Ora não, Senhor!
But Lot said to one of the angels, “No, sir, don’t make me do that!
19 Eis que agora o teu servo tem achado graça aos teus olhos, e engrandeceste a tua misericórdia que a mim me fizeste, para guardar a minha alma em vida: e eu não posso escapar no monte, para que porventura não me apanhe este mal, e eu morra.
Please, listen. You have been pleased with me and have been very kind to me and spared my life. But I cannot flee to the mountain. If I try to do that, I will die in this disaster [PRS].
20 Eis que agora esta cidade está perto, para fugir para lá, e é pequena: ora para ali me escaparei (não é pequena?), para que minha alma viva
But listen to me. There is a town nearby. Let me run to that small town. Let me go there now. It is a small town, but our lives will be saved if we go there.”
21 E disse-lhe: Eis aqui, tenho-te aceitado também neste negócio, para não derribar esta cidade, de que falaste:
One of the angels said to Lot, “I will allow you to do what you have requested [MTY]. I will not destroy the little town you are speaking about.
22 Apressa-te, escapa-te para ali; porque nada poderei fazer, enquanto não tiveres ali chegado. Por isso se chamou o nome da cidade Zoar.
But hurry! Run there, because I cannot destroy anything until you arrive there.” People later called the name of the town Zoar [which means ‘small’, ] because Lot said it was small.
23 Saiu o sol sobre a terra, quando Lot entrou em Zoar.
As the sun was rising, Lot and his family arrived in the town which is now called Zoar.
24 Então o Senhor fez chover enxofre e fogo, do Senhor desde os céus, sobre Sodoma e Gomorra;
Then Yahweh caused fire and [burning] sulfur to fall down on Sodom and Gomorrah like rain.
25 E derribou aquelas cidades, e toda aquela campina, e todos os moradores daquelas cidades, e o que nascia da terra.
In that way, he destroyed those cities and all the people who were living in those cities. He also destroyed everything in the valley, including all the plants/vegetation.
26 E a mulher de Lot olhou para traz dele, e ficou convertida numa estátua de sal.
But Lot’s wife stopped and looked back [to see what was happening], so she died, and her body [later] became a pillar of salt.
27 E Abraão levantou-se aquela mesma manhã, de madrugada, e foi para aquele lugar onde estivera diante da face do Senhor;
That morning, Abraham got up and went to the place where he had stood in front of Yahweh.
28 E olhou para Sodoma e Gomorra, e para toda a terra da campina; e viu, e eis que o fumo da terra subia, como o fumo de uma fornalha.
He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and he [was surprised to] see that all over the valley, smoke was rising, like the smoke of a huge furnace.
29 E aconteceu que, destruindo Deus as cidades da campina, Deus se lembrou de Abraão, e tirou a Lot do meio da destruição, derrubando aquelas cidades em que Lot habitara.
So, when God destroyed those cities in the valley, he remembered what he had promised Abraham, and he rescued Lot from the disaster that occurred in the cities where Lot had lived.
30 E subiu Lot de Zoar, e habitou no monte, e as suas duas filhas com ele; porque temia de habitar em Zoar; e habitou numa caverna, ele e as suas duas filhas.
Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar, so he left there and moved with his two daughters to the mountain, and they lived in a cave.
31 Então a primogênita disse à menor: Nosso pai é já velho, e não há varão na terra que entre a nós, segundo o costume de toda a terra;
One day the older daughter said to (the younger daughter/her sister), “Our father is old, and there is no man in this area who can have sex [EUP] with us, as people all over the earth do.
32 Vem, demos de beber vinho a nosso pai, e deitemo-nos com ele, para que em vida conservemos semente de nosso pai.
Let’s make our father drink wine until he gets drunk. Then we can have sex with him [EUP] [without him knowing it]. In that way [he will cause us to become pregnant] and we can bear children.”
33 E deram de beber vinho a seu pai naquela noite; e veio a primogênita, e deitou-se com seu pai, e não sentiu ele quando ela se deitou, nem quando se levantou.
So that night they caused their father to become drunk. And the older daughter went in and lay in bed with her father, and he had sex with her, but he was so drunk that he did not know when she lay down with him or when she got up.
34 E sucedeu, no outro dia, que a primogênita disse à menor: Vês aqui, eu já ontem à noite me deitei com meu pai: demos-lhe de beber vinho também esta noite, e então entra tu, deita-te com ele, para que em vida conservemos semente de nosso pai.
The next day, his older daughter said to (his younger daughter/her sister), “Listen to me. Last night I slept with our father. Let’s cause him to become drunk again tonight! This time you can go and sleep with him. If he has sex with you, you can become pregnant, and that way you can have a child, too.”
35 E deram de beber vinho a seu pai, também naquela noite; e levantou-se a menor, e deitou-se com ele; e não sentiu ele quando ela se deitou, nem quando se levantou.
So that night, they caused their father to become drunk with wine again, and then his younger daughter went and slept with him. But again, he was so drunk that he did not know when she lay down with him or when she got up.
36 E conceberam as duas filhas de Lot de seu pai.
So Lot caused his two daughters to become pregnant.
37 E pariu a primogênita um filho, e chamou o seu nome Moab; este é o pai dos moabitas, até ao dia de hoje.
The older one later gave birth to a son, whom she named Moab. He became the ancestor of the Moab people-group.
38 E a menor também pariu um filho, e chamou o seu nome Benammi; este é o pai dos filhos de Ammon, até o dia de hoje.
The younger one also gave birth to a son, whom she named Ben-Ammi. He became the ancestor of the Ammon people-group.
