< Genesis 18 >

1 The Lord appeared to Abraham at the oaks of Mamre. Abraham was sitting at the entrance to his tent as the day became really hot.
Oo Rabbigaa u muuqday isaga oo ag jooga dhirtii Mamre, isagoo iridda teendhada fadhiya markii maalinta ugu kululayd.
2 He looked up and all of a sudden he saw three men standing there. As soon as he saw them, he ran over to meet them and bowed low to the ground.
Oo indhihiisii buu kor u taagay oo eegay, oo wuxuu arkay saddex nin oo hortiisa taagan: oo kolkuu arkay, ayuu ka orday iriddii teendhada inuu ka hor tago iyagii, kolkaasuu dhulka ku sujuuday,
3 He said, “Sir, if you please, don't continue your journey without spending some time here with me, your servant.
oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, haddaad raalli iga tahay, ha i dhaafin anigoo addoonkaaga ah.
4 Let me have some water brought so you can wash your feet and rest under the tree.
Biyo yar ha laydiin keeno, oo cagamaydha, oo geedka hoostiisa ku nasta:
5 Also let me bring some food so you can get your strength back before you go on your way, now that you've come to visit me here.” “That would be fine,” they answered. “Please do as you've suggested.”
oo waxaan idiin keeni doonaa wuxoogaa cunto ah, ee raaxaysta; waayo, waxaad u timaadeen addoonkiinna; markaas ka dib waad tegi doontaan. Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Yeel sidaad tidhi.
6 Abraham hurried back to the tent and told Sarah, “Quick! Make some bread using three large measures of the best flour. Knead the dough and bake the bread.”
Ibraahimna dhaqsuu u galay teendhadii, oo Saarah u tegey, oo wuxuu ku yidhi, Saddex koombo oo bur ah degdeg u diyaari, oo cajiin, oo kibis ka samee.
7 Then Abraham ran to the cattle herd and chose a good, young calf and gave it to his servant who quickly killed and cooked it.
Oo Ibraahim xagga lo'dii buu ku orday, oo wuxuu soo kaxeeyey dibi yar oo dhaylo ah oo wanaagsan, oo wuxuu u dhiibay nin dhallinyaro ah, isaguna dhaqsuu u diyaariyey.
8 Then he took some yogurt, milk, and the cooked meat, and placed the food in front of them. He stood nearby under a tree while they ate.
Kolkaasuu u qaaday subag, iyo caano, iyo dibigii uu diyaariyey, oo hortooduu dhigay; isna dhinacooduu istaagay geedkii hoostiisii; iyana way cuneen.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?” they asked him. “Over there, inside the tent,” he replied.
Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Meeday bilcantaadii Saarah? Markaasuu yidhi, Waa taa; teendhaday ku jirtaa.
10 Then one said, “I promise you that I will come back to visit you about this time next year, and your wife Sarah will have a son.” Sarah was listening, hiding just inside the entrance to the tent behind him.
Wuxuuna ku yidhi, Hubaal waan kuu soo noqon doonaa markii xilligu soo wareego; oo bal ogow, naagtaada Saarah wiil bay dhali doontaaye. Saarahna way maqashay, iyadoo joogta iriddii teendhada oo ka dambaysay isaga.
11 Abraham and Sarah were old, getting on in years. Sarah was well past the age of having children.
Haddaba Ibraahim iyo Saarah way da' weynaayeen; gabow bayna la dhaceen; caadadii naaguhuna Saarah way ka joogsatay.
12 Sarah was laughing inside, saying to herself, “Now that I'm old and worn out, how would I experience pleasure? My husband is old too!”
Saarahna qalbigay ka qososhay, iyadoo leh, Ma anigoo gaboobay baan farxad heli doonaa, iyadoo sayidkayguna gaboobay?
13 The Lord asked Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and ask, ‘How could it possibly be true that I'll have a child now I'm so old?’
Rabbiguna wuxuu Ibraahim ku yidhi, Saarah maxay u qososhay, iyadoo leh, Runtii ma ilmaan dhali doonaa, anoo gaboobay?
14 Is anything too difficult for the Lord to do? I will come back next year when I said I would, in the spring, and Sarah will have a son.”
Ma wax Rabbiga ku adag baa jira? Wakhtigii la ballamay baan kugu soo noqon doonaa, markii xilligu soo wareego, oo Saarah wiil bay dhali doontaa.
15 Sarah denied it because she was afraid, claiming, “I didn't laugh.” “Yes, you did laugh,” the Lord replied.
Markaasaa Saarah dafirtay oo tidhi, Ma aan qoslin; maxaa yeelay, way cabsatay. Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Maya, laakiin waad qososhay.
16 Then the men left. They looked down on Sodom and headed in that direction. Abraham accompanied them part of the way.
Nimankiina halkaas way ka kaceen, oo waxay u jeesteen xagga Sodom: Ibraahimna wuu raacay inuu sagootiyo iyaga.
17 Then the Lord said, “Should I keep from Abraham what I'm going to do?
Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Miyaan Ibraahim ka qariyaa waxaan samaynayo,
18 Abraham will definitely become a great and powerful nation, and all the nations on earth will be blessed through him.
Maxaa yeelay, hubaal Ibraahim wuxuu noqon doonaa quruun weyn oo xoog leh, oo quruumaha dhulka oo dhammu isagay ku barakoobi doonaan?
19 I've chosen him so that he will teach his sons and their families to follow the way of the Lord by doing what is right and good, so that I, the Lord, can do for Abraham what I promised.”
Waayo, waan garanayaa isaga, inuu carruurtiisa iyo kuwa gurigiisa jooga ku amri doono, inay jidka Rabbiga xajiyaan inay sameeyaan xaqnimo iyo caaddilnimo; si uu Rabbigu Ibraahim ugu soo dejiyo wixii uu kaga hadlay.
20 Then the Lord said, “There are many complaints made against Sodom and Gomorrah because they sin so blatantly.
Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Qaylada Sodom iyo Gomora way badatay, dembigooduna aad buu u weynaaday.
21 I ‘m going to see if these complaints that have reached me are completely true. I'll know if they're not.”
Haddaba waan degi doonaa, oo waxaan arki doonaa inay wada sameeyeen sida qayladu ii soo gaadhay iyo in kale; haddaanay wada samaynna, waan ogaan doonaa.
22 The two men turned and went towards Sodom, but the Lord stayed there with Abraham.
Oo nimankii halkaasay ka noqdeen oo waxay tageen xagga Sodom: laakiinse Ibraahim weli wuxuu hor taagnaa Rabbiga.
23 Abraham came to him and asked: “Are you really going to wipe out the good people along with the wicked?
Oo Ibraahim baa u dhowaaday, oo yidhi, Miyaad kuwa xaqa ah la baabbi'inaysaa kuwa sharka fala?
24 What if there are fifty good people in the town? Are you still going to wipe it out despite the fifty good people there?
Mindhaa waxaa magaalada jooga konton xaq ah. De miyaad baabbi'inaysaa meesha oo aadan ugu tudhaynin kontonka xaqa ah ee jooga aawadood?
25 No, you can't do something like that! You can't kill the good with the wicked, otherwise you would be treating the good and the wicked in the same way. You can't do that! Isn't the Judge of all the earth going to do the right thing?”
Yaanay noqon inaad sidaas samayso, inaad kuwa xaqa ah la dishid kuwa sharka fala, oo sidaas kuwa xaqa ahu ay kula mid noqdaan kuwa sharka fala, taas yaanay noqon. Dunida oo dhan Xaakinkeedu miyuusan xaq samayn doonin?
26 “If I find fifty good people in Sodom, I'll spare the whole town because of them,” the Lord replied.
Markaasaa Rabbigu yidhi, Haddaan Sodom ka helo konton qof oo xaq ah oo magaalada jooga, de markaas meeshaa oo dhan waxaan ugu tudhi doonaa iyaga daraaddood.
27 “Since I've started, let me go on speaking to my Lord, even though I'm nothing but dust and ashes,” Abraham continued.
Oo Ibraahimna wuu jawaabay oo yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo, anoo ciid iyo dambas ah.
28 “What if there are forty-five good people, just five less? Are you still going to wipe out the whole town just because there are five fewer people?” “I won't destroy it if I find forty-five,” the Lord replied.
Mindhaa kontonka xaqa ah shan baa ka dhiman; miyaad magaalada oo dhan u baabbi'in hadday shanu ka dhiman tahay? Markaasuu yidhi, Baabbi'in maayo haddaan meeshaas shan iyo afartan ka helo.
29 Abraham spoke up again and he asked the Lord, “What if only forty can be found?” “I won't do it for the sake of the forty,” the Lord replied.
Kolkaasuu mar kale la hadlay, oo yidhi, Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli afartan. Markaasuu yidhi, Afartanka aawadood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
30 “My Lord, please don't get angry with me,” Abraham went on. “Let me ask this—what if only thirty were found?” “I won't do it if I find thirty,” the Lord replied.
Oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidku yuusan cadhoon, waan la hadlayaaye. Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli soddon. Markaasuu yidhi, Baabbi'in maayo haddaan soddon halkaas ka helo.
31 “I admit I've been very bold to speak to my Lord like this,” Abraham said. “What if only twenty are found there?” “I won't do it for the sake of the twenty,” the Lord replied.
Markaasuu yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo: mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli labaatan. Markaasuu yidhi, Labaatanka daraaddood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
32 “Please don't get angry with me, my Lord,” Abraham said. “Just let me ask one more thing. What if only ten are found there?” “I won't destroy it for the sake of the ten,” the Lord replied.
Oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidku yuusan cadhoon, oo weli waan la hadlayaaye, waase markan keliya. Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli toban. Wuxuuna yidhi, Tobanka daraaddood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.
33 The Lord left once he had finished speaking with Abraham, and Abraham went home.
Rabbiguna wuu iska tegey markuu Ibraahim la dhammeeyey hadalkii, Ibraahimna meeshiisii buu ku noqday.
