¹And 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;

¹In ona dva angela sta prišla v Sodomo zvečer, in Lot je sedel pri vratih sodomskih. Ko ju zagleda Lot, vstane in jima gre naproti ter se prikloni ponižno do tal,

²And 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 ye shall rise up early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all night.

²in reče: Glejta, gospoda moja, ustavita se, prosim, v hiši hlapca svojega, ter prenočita in umijta si noge. In zjutraj bosta vstala in šla svojim potem. Ona pa rečeta: Ne, ampak na ulicah bova prenočila.

³And 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.

³Ali ker ju je zelo silil, se ustavita pri njem ter vstopita v hišo njegovo. In napravi jima večerjo ter speče opresnikov, in jedla sta.

⁴But 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:

⁴Še nista bila legla, ko obsujejo moški iz mesta, moški sodomski, ono hišo, dečki in starci, vse ljudstvo iz vsega obmestja.

⁵And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.

⁵In klicali so Lota, govoreč mu: Kje sta tista moža, ki sta prišla k tebi nocoj? Pripelji ju ven k nam, da ju spoznamo.

⁶And Lot went out at the door unto them, and shut the door after him,

⁶Lot pa izide k njim pred vrata in zapre duri za seboj

⁷And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.

⁷in reče: Ne, prosim, bratje, ne delajte zlega!

⁸Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.

⁸Glejte, imam dve hčeri, ki nista še spoznali moža; dejte, da ju pripeljem k vam in storite jima, kakor se vam poljubi. Samo tema možema ne storite nič žalega, ko sta prišla v senco strehe moje.

⁹And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worse with thee, than with them. And they pressed sore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.

⁹Tedaj mu reko: Odstopi! In govoré: Ta sam je prišel uživat gostoljubje, pa se neprestano dela sodnika! Zdaj pa storimo več hudega tebi nego njima. In pritiskali so silno v moža, v Lota, in pristopijo, da bi ulomili vrata.

¹⁰But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.

¹⁰Ona moža pa iztegneta roke svoje in potegneta Lota k sebi v hišo in zapreta vrata.

¹¹And they smote 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.

¹¹A tiste može, ki so bili pri hišnih vratih, udarita s slepoto, od najmanjšega do največjega, tako da so onemogli in niso našli vrat.

¹²And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son in law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whatsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place:

¹²Tedaj rečeta ona moža Lotu: Koga imaš še tu? zeta ali sine svoje ali hčere svoje, ali kogarkoli imaš v tem mestu, glej, da gredo iz tega kraja.

¹³For we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and the LORD hath sent us to destroy it.

¹³Kajti pokončala bova ta kraj, zato ker je veliko njih vpitje pred obličjem GOSPODOVIM, in poslal naju je GOSPOD ga pogubit.

¹⁴And Lot went out, and spake 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.

¹⁴Izide torej Lot ter ogovori zeta svoja, ki sta mislila v kratkem vzeti hčeri njegovi, ter reče: Vstanita, pojdita iz tega kraja, kajti GOSPOD pokonča mesto. Ali zetoma njegovima se je zdelo, kakor da se norčuje.

¹⁵And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which are here; lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.

¹⁵Ko je pa vzhajala zarja, sta priganjala angela Lota, govoreč: Vstani, vzemi ženo svojo in dve hčeri svoji, ki sta pri tebi, da ne pogineš v kazni tega mesta.

¹⁶And 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.

¹⁶On pa se je obotavljal. Zato zgrabita ona moža roko njegovo in žene njegove roko in roke dveh hčer njegovih, ker mu je GOSPOD milostno prizanesel, in ga izpeljeta in ga postavita zunaj mesta.

¹⁷And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.

¹⁷In zgodi se, ko sta jih izpeljala ven, da mu veli: Reši se zaradi duše svoje, ne oziraj se za seboj in ne ustavi se na vseh tej ravnini; otmi se na ono goro, da ne pogineš.

¹⁸And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my LORD:

¹⁸Lot pa jima odgovori: Ah, ne tako, Gospod!

¹⁹Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me, and I die:

¹⁹Glej, prosim, hlapec tvoj je našel milost v tvojih očeh in poveličal si milost svojo, ki si mi jo izkazal, ohranivši mi življenje; jaz pa se ne morem oteti na ono goro, da me ne dohiti zlo in ne umrem.

²⁰Behold 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.

²⁰Glej, prosim, to mesto! Blizu je, lahko tja zbežim, in prav majhno je: tja naj se, prosim, otmem (ni li prav majhno?), da živi duša moja.

²¹And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou hast spoken.

²¹In mu veli: Glej, ozrl sem se milostno nate tudi v tej stvari, da ne razdenem mesta, za katero si govoril.

²²Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

²²Hiti, otmi se tja, zakaj ničesar ne morem storiti, dokler ne dojdeš tja. Zato se imenuje mesto to Zoar [T. j. majhno.].

²³The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.

²³Solnce je vzhajalo nad zemljo, ko je Lot prihajal v Zoar.

²⁴Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;

²⁴In GOSPOD je dežil nad Sodomo in Gomoro žveplo in ogenj od GOSPODA z neba;

²⁵And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

²⁵in pokončal je ta mesta in vso ravnino in vse prebivalce tistih mest in kar je raslo na zemlji.

²⁶But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

²⁶In žena njegova, gredoča za njim, se je ozrla nazaj, in postala je solnat steber.

²⁷And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he stood before the LORD:

²⁷Zjutraj zgodaj pa vstane Abraham in odide v oni kraj, kjer je prej stal pred GOSPODOM.

²⁸And 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.

²⁸In pogleda proti Sodomi in Gomori in proti vsej zemlji one ravnine, in videl je, in glej: dim se je vzdigal od zemlje kakor dim apnenice.

²⁹And 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.

²⁹Zgodilo se je torej, ko je Bog pokončaval mesta one ravnine, da se je Bog spomnil Abrahama in odpeljal Lota iz propasti, ko je podiral mesta, v katerih je bival Lot.

³⁰And 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.

³⁰Lot pa je šel gori iz Zoara in prebival je na gori in dve hčeri njegovi ž njim, kajti bal se je bivati v Zoaru; in bival je v neki jami, on in obe hčeri njegovi.

³¹And 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:

³¹Reče pa prvenka mlajši: Oče najin je star, in v tej pokrajini ni moža, ki bi se združil z nama po navadi vse zemlje.

³²Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

³²Dej, dajva piti svojemu očetu vina in leziva ž njim, da v življenju ohraniva iz svojega očeta seme.

³³And 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.

³³Dali sta torej očetu svojemu piti vina tisto noč, in pride prvenka ter je ležala z očetom svojim, in on ni zaznal, ne ko je legla, ne ko je vstala.

³⁴And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

³⁴In drugi dan reče prvenka mlajši: Glej, ležala sem preteklo noč z očetom svojim; dajva mu piti vina tudi nocoj, potem pridi, lezi ž njim, da ohraniva iz očeta svojega seme.

³⁵And 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.

³⁵Dali sta torej tudi tisto noč piti vina očetu svojemu; mlajša pa vstane ter je ležala ž njim, in on ni zaznal, ne ko je legla, ne ko je vstala.

³⁶Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

³⁶Tako sta spočeli obe hčeri Lotovi iz očeta svojega.

³⁷And the first born bare a son, and called his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.

³⁷In rodila je prvenka sina in ga imenovala Moaba: on je oče Moabcev do tega dne.In tudi mlajša je rodila sina in mu je dala ime Ben-ami: on je oče sinov Amonovih do tega dne.

³⁸And 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.

³⁸In tudi mlajša je rodila sina in mu je dala ime Ben-ami: on je oče sinov Amonovih do tega dne.
