4 Ngabuba, amibatele ndambo ya meya, amiweve malu; muhuluguge ha mushin’a mutshi.
5 Luholo muaza haha gudi muenya mudimo wenu, maganenu ngumihane gitshinyi gia dipha hagula mudie muhete ngolo.* Gungima muajiya guya genu.” Athu ene azuelele egi: “Gima ndo. Wajiya gutshita gifua luholo wazuela.”
6 Abalahama wayile muphushi mu tenta gudi Sara, wamuwambelele egi: “Zula izongelo* thathu ya phupha yabonga, uyifutule nu meya ulonde mapha. Tshita muphushi.”
7 Gungima Abalahama wayile muphushi gu luphango lua ngombe, watombele mutumba wa ngombe umoshi wabonga wa mulume, wawuhanele gudi muenya mudimo wenji. Muenya mudimo muene wayile muphushi ha guwutelega.
8 Gungima Abalahama wazudile manteka nu miliki nu mutumba wa ngombe watelegele muene, wahagele gutuama diawo. Tangua diakhalele ene mudia ha mushin’a mutshi, muene wamaganele hehi nawo.
9 Amuhudile egi: “Mukaji’aye Sara udi gui?” Muene waavutudile egi: “Udi mukatshi dia tenta.”
10 Mumoshi mukatshi diawo wazuelele luko egi: “Mbanguza luko haha mu sungi eyi mu givo gidi muza, mukaji’aye Sara mbawuvuala mona wa yala.” Mu tangua diene Sara wakhalele mutegelela ha mufulo wa tenta yakhalele gungima dia yala muene.
11 Abalahama nu Sara akhalele abui gale athu a gukola nu ivo yavula diago. Sara wakhalele wabalegesa gale nji ivo ya guvuala.*
12 Sara wasendesele gudilelela hakhenji, wazuelele egi: “Henyaha ngudi gale muthu wa gukola, fumu wami nji udi gale muthu wa gukola, mbanguheta diago gusuanguluga guagukhala nu mona ba?”
13 Gungima Yehowa wahudile Abalahama egi: “Mukunda natshi Sara udi mulela? Mukunda natshi gadi muzuela egi: ‘Ame henyaha ngudi gale muthu wa gukola, mbanguvuala diago mona ba?’
14 Gudi nu ndaga yakola gu meso a Yehowa ba? Mbanguza luko haha mu sungi eyi mu givo gidi muza, Sara mbawuvuala mona wa yala.”
15 Uvi Sara waditunyile wazuelele egi: “Ngalelelego!” Wazuelele ngenyi handaga wakhalele muvua woma. Uvi Nzambi wamuwambelele egi: “Ndo! Waledi.”
16 Tangua mala ene azugile ha guya, atalele gu khanda ya dimbo dia Sodoma, Abalahama wayile guatuala.
17 Yehowa wazuelele egi: “Ngajiyilego gusuegela Abalahama ndaga ngumutshigina gukalagala.
18 Abalahama mbawubua diago gifutshi giakoma gia ngolo, athu a ifutshi yagasue ya ha mavu mbayiheta gubonga mu njila yenji.
19 Ngamutombele hagula wajiya guwambela an’enji nu ajigulu enji ha gutumagela mikhuala ya Yehowa, nu ha gutshita ndaga jiabonga nu jiatagana, hagula egi Yehowa atagenese ndaga jialayele muene gudi Abalahama.”
20 Gungima Yehowa wazuelele egi: “Ngavua ndaga jiavula mukunda nu Sodoma nu Gomola, gubola guawo gudi guavula diago.
21 Ngudi mubulumuga guene ha gutala nu ha gujiya gula ndaga jiene jidi jia giamatshidia nga ndo.”
22 Gungima mala ene mbadi abembele Abalahama, ayile gu dimbo dia Sodoma, uvi Yehowa wasalele nu Abalahama.
23 Abalahama wasuenene hehi nu Nzambi, wazuelele egi: “Mbawushiya athu abonga hamoshi nu athu abola ba?
24 Gula mu dimbo diene mudi nu athu abonga 50. Mbawushiya athu agasue a mu dimbo diene ba? Mbawushigo guatotesela mukunda nu athu abonga 50 adi muene ba?
25 Ngajiyilego gutangiza egi aye wajiya gushiya athu abonga hamoshi nu athu abola, handaga gula watshita ngenyi idi gifua gudisha gushigo guene mukatshi dia athu abonga nu athu abola! Ngushigo mutangiza egi aye wajiya gutshita ndaga ya luholo elu. Nzuji wa athu agasue a ha mavu gajiyilego gutshita ndaga yabonga ba?”
26 Gungima Yehowa wazuelele egi: “Gula ngasanga athu abonga 50 mu dimbo dia Sodoma, mbangutotesela enya mu dimbo diene mukunda nu athu ene.”
27 Uvi Abalahama wawambelele luko Nzambi egi: “Yehowa, ngutotesele, ngudi muzuela naye uvi ame ngudi fuluguta dia mavu nu fuphi.
28 Gula mukatshi dia athu ene abonga 50 gushigo nu athu thano, na mbawushiya gaye dimbo diene mukunda nu athu ene thano ba? Nzambi wamuvutudile egi: “Mbangushigo mushiya dimbo diene gula ngasanga athu abonga 45.”
29 Uvi Abalahama walanduile guzuela nu Nzambi, wamuhudile egi: “Mbawutshita itshi gula wasanga athu abonga 40 mu dimbo diene?” Nzambi wamuvutudile egi: “Mbangushigo mushiya dimbo diene gula ngasanga athu abonga 40.”
30 Abalahama wazuelele luko egi: “Ngabuba Yehowa, unguvuilago khabu jiavula, ngubembe nguzuele luko: Mbawutshita itshi gula wasanga athu abonga phamba 30 mu dimbo diene?” Nzambi wamuvutudile egi: “Mbangushigo mushiya dimbo diene gula ngasanga athu abonga 30.”
31 Abalahama wazuelele luko egi: “Yehowa ngutotesele luholo ngudi muzuela naye: Mbawutshita itshi gula wasanga athu abonga phamba 20 mu dimbo diene?” Nzambi wamuvutudile egi: “Mbangushigo mushiya dimbo diene gula ngasanga athu abonga 20.”
32 Gungima Abalahama wazuelele luko egi: “Ngabuba Yehowa, unguvuilago khabu jiavula, nguzuele luko: Mbawutshita itshi gula wasanga phamba athu kumi mu dimbo diene?” Nzambi wamuvutudile egi: “Mbangushigo mushiya dimbo diene gula ngasanga athu abonga kumi.”
