< Genesis 19 >

1 And in the euening there came two Angels to Sodom: and Lot sate at the gate of Sodom, and Lot sawe them, and rose vp to meete them, and he bowed himselfe with his face to the ground.
Na ka haere mai nga anahera tokorua ki Horoma i te ahiahi; a ko Rota i te kuwaha o Horoma e noho ana: a ka kite a Rota i a raua, ka whakatika ki te whakatau i a raua, a ka tuohu tona kanohi ki te whenua;
2 And he saide, See my Lords, I pray you turne in nowe into your seruants house, and tarie all night, and wash your feete, and ye shall rise vp early and goe your wayes. Who saide, Nay, but we will abide in the streete all night.
Ka mea ia, Nana, e oku ariki, peka mai ki te whare o ta korua pononga, ne? ki konei moe ai, horoi ai hoki i o korua waewae, a ka moata ai te maranga, ka haere i ta korua haere. Ka mea raua, Kahore; engari ki te huarahi noa maua moe ai.
3 Then he preassed vpon them earnestly, and they turned in to him, and came to his house, and he made them a feast, and did bake vnleauened bread, and they did eate.
Na ka kaha tana tohe ki a raua, a peka atu ana raua ki a ia, haere ana ki tona whare; na ka taka ia i tetahi hakari ma raua, ka tunu hoki i etahi keke rewenakore, a ka kai raua.
4 But before they went to bed, the men of the citie, euen the men of Sodom compassed the house rounde about from the yong euen to the olde, all the people from all quarters.
Kiano raua i takoto noa, ka karapotia te whare e nga tangata o te pa, e nga tangata o Horoma, e te koroheke, e te taitamariki, e nga tangata katoa o nga wahi katoa:
5 Who crying vnto Lot said to him, Where are the men, which came to thee this night? bring them out vnto vs that we may knowe them.
A ka karanga ratou ki a Rota, ka mea ki a ia, Kei hea aua tangata i haere mai nei ki a koe i te po nei? whakaputaina mai ki a matou, kia mohio ai matou ki a raua.
6 Then Lot went out at the doore vnto them, and shut the doore after him,
Na ka puta atu a Rota ki a ratou ki te kuwaha, me tana tutaki ano i te tatau i muri i a ia.
7 And said, I pray you, my brethren, do not so wickedly.
Ka mea, Kaua ra e kino, e oku tuakana.
8 Beholde nowe, I haue two daughters, which haue not knowen man: them will I bring out now vnto you, and doe to them as seemeth you good: onely vnto these men doe nothing: for therefore are they come vnder the shadowe of my roofe.
Nana, tokorua aku tamahine, kahore nei i mohio noa ki te tane, me whakaputa atu raua e ahau ki a koutou, a ma koutou e mea ki enei tangata; he mea hoki ka tae mai nei raua ki te taumarumarutanga iho o toku tuanui.
9 Then they said, Away hence, and they said, He is come alone as a stranger, and shall he iudge and rule? we will nowe deale worse with thee then with them. So they preassed sore vpon Lot himselfe, and came to breake the doore.
Ano ra ko ratou, Tu atu. A ka mea ano ratou, I haere mai tenei koroke kotahi ki konei noho ia, a e whai ana kia mana e whakarite tikanga: akuanei tou mate i a matou nui atu i to raua. Na ka aki rawa ratou ki te tangata ra, ki a Rota, a ka whakata ta ki te wahi i te tatau.
10 But the men put forth their hand and pulled Lot into the house to them and shut to ye doore.
Otira ka totoro atu te ringa o aua tangata, a kumea ana a Rota ki a raua ki roto ki te whare, a tutakina ana e raua te tatau.
11 Then they smote the men that were at the doore of the house with blindnes both small and great, so that they were wearie in seeking the doore.
Na ka whiua e raua nga tangata i te kuwaha o te whare, te iti, te rahi, ki te matapotanga: a ngenge noa ratou i te rapunga i te tatau.
12 Then the men said vnto Lot, Whom hast thou yet here? either sonne in lawe, or thy sonnes, or thy daughters, or whatsoeuer thou hast in the citie, bring it out of this place.
Na ka mea aua tangata ki a Rota, Kahore atu ranei ou tangata i konei? me he hunaonga, he tama ranei au, he tamahine ranei au, tetahi atu mea ranei au i roto i te pa, mauria atu i tenei wahi:
13 For we will destroy this place, because the crye of them is great before the Lord, and the Lord hath sent vs to destroy it.
Ka whakangaromia hoki tenei wahi e maua, no te mea kua nui to ratou karanga ki te aroaro o Ihowa; kua tonoa mai hoki maua e Ihowa ki te whakangaro.
14 Then Lot went out and spake vnto his sonnes in lawe, which maried his daughters, and said, Arise, get you out of this place: for the Lord will destroy the citie: but he seemed to his sonnes in lawe as though he had mocked.
Na ka haere a Rota, ka korero ki ana hunaonga: marenatia nei ki ana tamahine, ka mea, Whakatika, haere atu i konei; ka whakangaromia hoki e Ihowa tenei pa. Otiia ki te whakaaro o ana hunaonga i rite ia ki tetahi tangata e hangareka ana.
15 And when the morning arose, the Angels hasted Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife and thy two daughters which are here, lest thou be destroyed in the punishment of the citie.
A, i te huakanga ake o te ata, ka akiaki nga anahera i a Rota, ka mea, Whakatika, haria tau wahine, me enei tamahine tokorua au, kei huna koe i roto i te kino o tenei pa.
16 And as he prolonged the time, the men caught both him and his wife, and his two daughters by the hands (the Lord being mercifull vnto him) and they brought him foorth, and set him without the citie.
Otira i whakaroa ia; na ka hopu aua tangata ki tona ringa, ki te ringa o tana wahine, ki nga ringa o ana tamahine tokorua; he tohu hoki na Ihowa i a ia: a kawea atu ana ia e raua ki waho, ka waiho i waho o te pa.
17 And when they had brought them out, the Angel said, Escape for thy life: looke not behinde thee, neither tarie thou in all the plaine: escape into ye mountaine, least thou be destroyed.
A ka oti ratou te kawe atu e raua ki waho, ka mea ia, Rere atu kia ora ai koe; kaua e titiro ki muri i a koe, kaua hoki e tu ki tetahi wahi o te mania; rere atu ki te maunga, kei ngaro koe.
18 And Lot saide vnto them, Not so, I pray thee, my Lord.
Na ka mea a Rota ki a raua, Kaua ra e pena, e toku Ariki.
19 Behold now, thy seruant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercie, which thou hast shewed vnto me in sauing my life: and I cannot escape in the mountaine, least some euill take me, and I die.
Nana, kua manakohia nei tau pononga e koe, kua whakanuia ano e koe tou aroha i whakaputaina nei e koe ki ahau, i a koe i whakaora nei i toku wairua; na e kore e taea e ahau te rere ki te maunga, kei mau ahau i tetahi kino, a ka mate.
20 See nowe this citie hereby to flee vnto, which is a litle one: Oh let me escape thither: is it not a litle one, and my soule shall liue?
Titiro hoki, e tata ana tenei pa hei rerenga atu, he mea nohinohi noa nei: Kia rere ahau ki reira ne? ehara ianei i te mea nohinohi? a ka ora toku wairua.
21 Then he said vnto him, Beholde, I haue receiued thy request also concerning this thing, that I will not ouerthrow this citie, for the which thou hast spoken.
Ano ra ko ia ki a ia, Na, kua whakaae ano hoki ahau ki tenei meatanga au, kia kaua e huna e ahau tenei pa i korero mai na koe.
22 Haste thee, saue thee there: for I can doe nothing till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the citie was called Zoar.
Kia hohoro, rere atu ki reira; e kore hoki e taea e ahau tetahi mea, kia tae ra ano koe ki reira. Na reira i huaina ai te ingoa o taua pa ko Toara.
23 The sunne did rise vpon the earth, when Lot entred into Zoar.
Kua rewa te ra ki runga ki te whenua, ka tae a Rota ki Toara.
24 Then the Lord rained vpon Sodom and vpon Gomorah brimstone, and fire from the Lord out of heauen,
Katahi ka uaina e Ihowa ki Horoma, ki Komora, he whanariki, he ahi na Ihowa, no te rangi;
25 And ouerthrewe those cities and all the plaine, and all the inhabitants of the cities; and that that grewe vpon the earth.
A hurihia iho e ia aua pa, me te mania katoa, me nga tangata katoa o nga pa, me nga mea e tupu ana i te whenua.
26 Now his wife behind him looked backe, and she became a pillar of salt.
Na i titiro tana wahine ki muri i a ia, a meinga ana hei pou tote.
27 And Abraham rising vp earely in ye morning went to the place, where he had stand before the Lord,
A i maranga wawe a Aperahama i te ata ki te wahi i tu ai ia i te aroaro o Ihowa:
28 And looking towarde Sodom and Gomorah and toward all the land of the plaine, behold, he sawe the smoke of the lande mounting vp as the smoke of a fornace.
Na ko tona tirohanga atu ki te ritenga o Horoma, o Komora, ki te whenua katoa hoki o te mania, ka kite, na, e kake ana te paowa o te whenua, me te mea he paowa oumu.
29 But yet when God destroyed the cities of the plaine, God thought vpon Abraham, and sent Lot out from the middes of the destruction, when he ouerthrewe the cities, wherein Lot dwelled.
Na, i te whakangaromanga a Ihowa i nga pa o te mania, ka mahara te Atua ki a Aperahama, a tonoa ana e ia a Rota i roto i te hurihanga i tana hurihanga i nga pa i noho ai a Rota.
30 Then Lot went vp from Zoar, and dwelt in the mountaine with his two daughters: for he feared to tarie in Zoar, but dwelt in a caue, he, and his two daughters.
Na ka piki atu a Rota i Toara, ka noho ki te maunga, ratou tahi ko ana tamahine tokorua; i wehi hoki ia ki te noho i Toara: a ka noho i roto i tetahi ana, a ia me ana tamahine tokorua.
31 And the elder saide vnto the yonger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth, to come in vnto vs after the maner of all ye earth.
Na ka mea te tuakana ki to muri, Kua koroheke to taua papa, a kohore he tangata o te whenua hei haere mai ki a taua, hei pera me to te whenua katoa tikanga:
32 Come, wee will make our father drinke wine, and lie with him, that we may preserue seede of our father.
Tena, taua ka whakainu i to taua papa ki te waina, ka takoto ai taua ki a ia, kia tupu ai i a taua tetahi uri mo to taua papa.
33 So they made their father drinke wine that night, and the elder went and lay with her father: but he perceiued not, neither whe she lay downe, neither when she rose vp.
Na ka whakainu raua i to raua papa ki te waina i taua po; a ka haere atu te tuakana, ka takoto ki tona papa, kihai hoki tera i mohio ki tona takotoranga iho, ki tona whakatikanga ake.
34 And on the morowe the elder saide to the yonger, Behold, yester night lay I with my father: let vs make him drinke wine this night also, and goe thou and lie with him, that we may preserue seede of our father.
A i te aonga ake ka mea te tuakana ki to muri, Nana, i takoto ahau inapo ki toku papa: taua ano ka whakainu i a ia ki te waina i tenei po; a mau e haere atu, e takoto ki a ia, kia tupu ai i a taua tetahi uri mo to taua papa.
35 So they made their father drinke wine that night also, and the yonger arose, and lay with him, but he perceiued not, when she lay downe, neither when she rose vp.
Na ka whakainu ano raua i to raua papa ki te waina i taua po; a ka whakatika to muri, ka takoto hoki ki a ia: a kihai ia i mohio ki tona takotoranga iho, ki tona whakatikanga ake.
36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with childe by their father.
Koia ka hapu nga tamahine tokorua a Rota i to raua papa.
37 And the elder bare a sonne, and she called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites vnto this day.
A ka whanau ta te tuakana, he tama, a huaina ana e ia tona ingoa ko Moapa: ko ia te papa o nga Moapi, a tae noa ki tenei ra.
38 And the yonger bare a sonne also, and she called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the Ammonites vnto this day.
Me to muri, whanau ake ano tana, he tama, a huaina iho e ia tona ingoa ko Penami: ko ia te papa o nga tama a Amona, a tae noa ki tenei ra.
