¹Zvino Jehovha wakaonekera kwaari pamiouki* yeMa­mure, ndokugara pamusuwo wetende pakupisa kwezuva;

¹Oo Rabbigaa u muuqday isaga oo ag jooga dhirtii Mamre, isagoo iridda teendhada fadhiya markii maalinta ugu kululayd.

²ndokusimudza meso ake akaona, zvino tarira, varume vatatu vamire pamberi pake; zvino paakavaona wakamhanya kunovachingamidza pamusuwo wetende, akakotamira pasi,

²Oo 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,

³ndokuti: Ishe wangu, kana zvino ndawana nya­sha pameso penyu, ndinokukumbirai, musapfuura pamura­nda wenyu.

³oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidkaygiiyow, haddaad raalli iga tahay, ha i dhaafin anigoo addoonkaaga ah.

⁴Ngakuuiswewo mvura shoma, mugoshambidza tsoka dzenyu, muzorore pasi pemuti.

⁴Biyo yar ha laydiin keeno, oo cagamaydha, oo geedka hoostiisa ku nasta:

⁵Zvino ndichauisa chi­medu chechingwa, mugonyaradza moyo yenyu, mugozopfuura, nekuti ndi­zvo zvamapfuurira nekumuranda wenyu. Ivo ndokuti: Ita saizvozvo sezvawataura

⁵oo 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.

⁶Abhurahamu ndokukurumidza kupi­nda mutende kuna Sara, akati: Kurumi­dza ugadzire zviyero zvitatu zveupfu hwakatsetseka! Kanya, ubike zvingwa zviduku.

⁶Ibraahimna 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.

⁷Abhurahamu ndokumhanyira kumombe, akatora mhuru ine nyama yakapfava, yakanaka, akapa kujaya, ndokukurumidza kuigadzira.

⁷Oo 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.

⁸Zvino wakatora mukaka wakafa, nemukaka mumbishi, nemhuru yaakange agadzira, akazviisa pamberi pavo; akamira pedo navo munyasi memuti, ivo ndokudya.

⁸Kolkaasuu u qaaday subag, iyo caano, iyo dibigii uu diyaariyey, oo hortooduu dhigay; isna dhinacooduu istaagay geedkii hoostiisii; iyana way cuneen.

⁹Ivo ndokuti kwaari: Uripi Sara mukadzi wako? Iye ndokuti: Tarirai, mutende.

⁹Oo waxay ku yidhaahdeen, Meeday bilcantaadii Saarah? Markaasuu yidhi, Waa taa; teendhaday ku jirtaa.

¹⁰Zvino akati: Zvirokwazvo ndichadzoka nenguva iyi yeupenyu; zvino tarira, Sara mukadzi wako uchava nemwanakomana. Sarawo akazvinzwa ari pamusuwo wetende shure kwake.

¹⁰Wuxuuna 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.

¹¹Zvino Abhurahamu naSara vakange vakwegura, vava nemakore mazhinji; kwakange kwaguma kuna Sara nemutowo wevakadzi.

¹¹Haddaba Ibraahim iyo Saarah way da' weynaayeen; gabow bayna la dhaceen; caadadii naaguhuna Saarah way ka joogsatay.

¹²Naizvozvo Sara wakaseka mukati make achiti: Ndakwegura, ndingava nemufaro here, naishe wangu wachemberawo?

¹²Saarahna qalbigay ka qososhay, iyadoo leh, Ma anigoo gaboobay baan farxad heli doonaa, iyadoo sayidkayguna gaboobay?

¹³Jehovha ndokuti kuna Abhurahamu: Sara wasekerei, achiti: Zvirokwazvo neni ndichabereka ndakwegura here?

¹³Rabbiguna wuxuu Ibraahim ku yidhi, Saarah maxay u qososhay, iyadoo leh, Runtii ma ilmaan dhali doonaa, anoo gaboobay?

¹⁴Kune chi­nhu chinorema kukunda Jehovha here? Nenguva yakatarwa, ndichadzoka kwauri, nenguva ino yeupenyu, uye Sara achava nemwanakomana.

¹⁴Ma wax Rabbiga ku adag baa jira? Wakhtigii la ballamay baan kugu soo noqon doonaa, markii xilligu soo wareego, oo Saarah wiil bay dhali doontaa.

¹⁵Sara ndokuramba achiti: Handina kuseka, nekuti waitya. Asi iye akati: Kwete asi waseka.

¹⁵Markaasaa Saarah dafirtay oo tidhi, Ma aan qoslin; maxaa yeelay, way cabsatay. Oo isna wuxuu yidhi, Maya, laakiin waad qososhay.

¹⁶Zvino varume vakasimuka kubva ipapo ndokutarira Sodhoma; Abhurahamu ndokuenda navo achivaperekedza.

¹⁶Nimankiina halkaas way ka kaceen, oo waxay u jeesteen xagga Sodom: Ibraahimna wuu raacay inuu sagootiyo iyaga.

¹⁷Zvino Jehovha akati: Ini ndicha­vanzira Abhurahamu zvandinoita here?

¹⁷Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Miyaan Ibraahim ka qariyaa waxaan samaynayo,

¹⁸Abhurahamu zvaachava zvirokwazvo rudzi rukuru rwune simba, nendudzi dzose dzenyika dzicharopafadzwa nemaari.

¹⁸Maxaa yeelay, hubaal Ibraahim wuxuu noqon doonaa quruun weyn oo xoog leh, oo quruumaha dhulka oo dhammu isagay ku barakoobi doonaan?

¹⁹Nekuti nda­kamuziva, kuti araire vana vake nei­mba yake vanomutevera, vagoche­ngeta nzira yaJehovha kuti vaite kururamisira nekutonga; kuti Jehovha auyise pamusoro paAbhurahamu izvo zvaakataura maererano naye.

¹⁹Waayo, 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.

²⁰Jehovha ndokuti: Nekuti kuchema kweSodhoma neGomora kukuru, uye nekuti zvivi zvavo zvinorema zvikuru,

²⁰Rabbiguna wuxuu yidhi, Qaylada Sodom iyo Gomora way badatay, dembigooduna aad buu u weynaaday.

²¹ndichaburuka zvino ndigoona kana vakaita zvizere zvinoenderana nekuchema kwaro kwasvika kwandiri; asi kana zvisina kudaro, ndichazviziva.

²¹Haddaba waan degi doonaa, oo waxaan arki doonaa inay wada sameeyeen sida qayladu ii soo gaadhay iyo in kale; haddaanay wada samaynna, waan ogaan doonaa.

²²Zvino varume vakafuratira ipapo, va­kaenda vakananga Sodhoma; asi Abhurahamu wakange achakamira pamberi paJehovha.

²²Oo nimankii halkaasay ka noqdeen oo waxay tageen xagga Sodom: laakiinse Ibraahim weli wuxuu hor taagnaa Rabbiga.

²³Zvino Abhurahamu wakaswedera, akati: Mu­chaparadzawo vakarurama pamwe ne­vakaipa here?

²³Oo Ibraahim baa u dhowaaday, oo yidhi, Miyaad kuwa xaqa ah la baabbi'inaysaa kuwa sharka fala?

²⁴Zvimwe varipo vakarurama makumi mashanu mukati meguta; muchaparadzawo mukasaregerera nzvimbo iyo nekuda kwevakarurama makumi mashanu varimo here?

²⁴Mindhaa waxaa magaalada jooga konton xaq ah. De miyaad baabbi'inaysaa meesha oo aadan ugu tudhaynin kontonka xaqa ah ee jooga aawadood?

²⁵Ngazvive kure nemwi kuita chinhu chakadaro, kuuraya wakarurama pamwe newa­kaipa, kuti wakarurama ave sawakaipa; ngazvive kure nemwi. Mutongi wenyika yose haangaiti kururamisira here?

²⁵Yaanay 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?

²⁶Jehovha ndokuti: Kana ndikawana muSodhoma vakarurama ma­kumi mashanu mukati meguta, ipapo ndicharegerera nzvimbo yose nekuda kwavo.

²⁶Markaasaa 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.

²⁷Zvino Abhurahamu wakapindura ndokuti: Tarirai zvino, ndatsunga kutaura naJehovha, ini guruva nedota.

²⁷Oo Ibraahimna wuu jawaabay oo yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo, anoo ciid iyo dambas ah.

²⁸Zvimwe kuchashaikwa vashanu kuvakarurama makumi mashanu; muchaparadza guta rose nekuda kwevashanu here? Ndokuti: Handingariparadzi kana ndikawa­namo makumi mana nevashanu.

²⁸Mindhaa 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.

²⁹Zvino wakataurazve naye akati: Zvimwe kuchawanikwamo makumi mana. Iye ndokuti: Handingazviiti nekuda kwamakumi mana.

²⁹Kolkaasuu mar kale la hadlay, oo yidhi, Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli afartan. Markaasuu yidhi, Afartanka aawadood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.

³⁰Akabva ati: Ndinokumbira Jehovha arege kunditsamwira, kana ndikataura. Zvi­mwe makumi matatu vachawanikwamo. Iye ndokuti: Handingazviiti kana ndikawanamo makumi matatu.

³⁰Oo wuxuu yidhi, Sayidku yuusan cadhoon, waan la hadlayaaye. Mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli soddon. Markaasuu yidhi, Baabbi'in maayo haddaan soddon halkaas ka helo.

³¹Zvino akati: Tarira zvino, ndatsunga kutaura naJehovha; zvimwe kuchawanikwamo makumi maviri. Iye ndokuti: Handingari­paradzi nekuda kwemakumi maviri.

³¹Markaasuu yidhi, Bal eeg, waxaan isu diray inaan Sayidka la hadlo: mindhaa waxaa halkaas laga heli labaatan. Markaasuu yidhi, Labaatanka daraaddood ayaanan u baabbi'inayn.

³²Zvino wakati: Ndinokumbira Jehovha ngaarege kutsamwa, ndikataurazve ka­mwe; zvimwe kuchawanikwa gumi. Iye ndokuti, Handingariparadzi nekuda kwevane gumi.

³²Oo 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.Rabbiguna wuu iska tegey markuu Ibraahim la dhammeeyey hadalkii, Ibraahimna meeshiisii buu ku noqday.

³³Zvino Jehovha wakabva apedza kutaura naAbhurahamu; naAbhurahamu akadzokera kunzvimbo yake.

³³Rabbiguna wuu iska tegey markuu Ibraahim la dhammeeyey hadalkii, Ibraahimna meeshiisii buu ku noqday.
