18 Kunyima Yehowa baadi mumuenekiele Abalahama mu mitshi ikata ya Mamale mubaadi mushale pa kituelelo kia kashibo kaye k’epema nsaa yakubaadi kanya ke bukopo.
2 Pababuushile meso, bamuene bana balume basatu mbemane kula naye ndambo. Pabebamuene bakatukile ku kituelelo kia kashibo kaye k’epema enda lubilo mu kufumankana nabo, na aye nkuinama mpa na paashi.
3 Akupu aye nkuakula’shi: “Yehowa, su nemukumiinyibue ku meso kobe, tokilanga namu mufubi oobe.
4 Kumiinayi namu bafikie na ndambo ya mema benutumpe ku ngua; akupu nuikishe muushi mua mutshi.
5 Bu bianubafiki pano kui mufubi eenu, kumiinayi nenutuadile kipese kia mukate bua’shi nupetule bukome.* Akupu nutungunukie na luendo luenu.” Abo nkuakula’shi: “Bi buwa, we kukita bibuakula.”
6 Biabia Abalahama nkuenda lubilo ku kashibo k’epema kui Sara, na nkumulungula’shi: “Kita bukidi! Ata bipimo* bisatu bia bukula bukile buwa, osobe musabu na okite mikate.”
7 Akupu Abalahama kuenda lubilo ku lombe lua nyema na nkusangula muana a ngobe mulume mubofule na e buwa. Aye nkumupa mufubi baadi mumuteekie bukidibukidi.
8 Aye nkuata manteka, mabeele, na muana a ngobe mulume abaadi muteekie, na aye nkutuula bidibua kumpala kuabo. Akupu aye nkuimana ku lupese luabo muushi mua mutshi pabaabadi abende na kudia.
9 Abo nkumuipusha’shi: “Mukashi oobe Sara e kunyi?” Aye nkualula’shi: “E mu kashibo k’epema.”
10 Biabia umune a kuabadi nkutungunuka na kuakula’shi: “Nakalukiila kodi binyibinyi kipua akifiki mu kino kipungo, na mukashi oobe Sara akekala na muana mulume.” Na Sara baadi ateemesha ku kituelelo kia kashibo k’epema, kabaadi kumongo kua yawa muntu.
11 Abalahama na Sara babaadi bapue kununupa ngofu. Sara baadi mupue kukila bipua bia kutanda bana.*
12 Biabia Sara nkubanga kuisepela, nkuamba’shi: “Napu kununupa na nfumuami mmununu, nekala binyibinyi na uno muloo su?”
13 Biabia Yehowa nkulungula Abalahama’shi: “Buakinyi Sara basepe na bakula’shi, ‘Ne bia kutanda binyibinyi muana sunga bitandi mununu?’
14 Kui kintu kikile bukopo kui Yehowa su? Nakalukiila kodi kipua akifiki mu kino kipungo, na Sara akekala na muana mulume.”
15 Anka Sara nkupela, nkuakula’shi, “Ntshi musepe!” muanda baadi na moo. Biabia Efile Mukulu nkumulungula’shi: “Mbinyibinyi! Wekeele musepe.”
16 Pabaadi baba bantu bebuee bua kuenda batadile dia ku Sodome, Abalahama baadi ende nabo bua kuibashindikila.
17 Yehowa nkuakula’shi: “Nafuamisha Abalahama kiankiebe kukita su?
18 Abalahama afiki binyibinyi muilo ukata na wi bukome, na miilo yoso ya pa nsenga ayikedibua miabi* ku bukuashi buaye.
19 Muanda nafiki mu kumuuka bua’shi atumine bana baye na ba mu nshibo muaye eyi, buabadia kulama eshinda dia Yehowa pa kukita ki buwa na kilulame, bua’shi Yehowa akumbashe kibaadi mulee pabitale Abalahama.”
20 Akupu Yehowa nkuakula’shi: “Kuidila kua bantu pabitale Sodome na Gomore nkukata, na muluisho wabo ngukile bukata.
21 Nakayiki bua kumona su bakuete kukita mianda muyile kuidila kubafiki kuandi. Na su ta nabio, nakebiuku.”
22 Akupu baba bantu nkukatuka yaaya mbalo na kuenda batadile ku Sodome, anka Yehowa nkushala na Abalahama.
23 Akupu Abalahama nkuifubuila na nkuakula’shi: “Okayipaa binyibinyi muntu mululame pamune na muntu e bubi?
24 Tubande kupuandikisha’shi mu kibundi mui bantu balulame 50, okayipaa bantu ba mu kibundi kushi kuibafuila lusa bua bantu balulame 50 be muanka su?
25 Tatua kupuandikisha’shi we kukita mianda mu uno mushindo, pa kuipa muntu mululame pamune na muntu e bubi, bua’shi muntu mululame na muntu e bubi banyokibue mu mushindo umune! Tatua kupuandikisha bino bobe nya. Nsushi a nsenga ishima takakitshi kiakia kilulame su?”
26 Biabia Yehowa nkuakula’shi “Su nasangana bantu balulame 50 mu Sodome, nakafuila bantu boso ba mu kibundi lusa pa muanda wabo.”
27 Kadi Abalahama nkuakula dingi’shi: “Nakusendeela, nanyingi’eshimba bua kuisamba na Yehowa, sunga biandi lufufi na buto.
28 Tubande kupuandikisha’shi, mu bantu balulame 50 mubakutshikua batano, pa muanda wa baba batano, okabutula kibundi kishima su?” Efile Mukulu nkualula’shi: “Tankekibutula su nemusangana 45.”
29 Anka bamulunguile dingi’shi: “Tubande kupuandikisha’shi mubasanganyibua 40.” Aye nkualula’shi: “Tankebikitshi pa muanda wa baba 40.”
30 Kadi batungunukile na kuakula’shi: “Yehowa nakusendeela, tokuatanga namu nsungu, tandiile namu ngakule: tubande kupuandikisha’shi mubasanganyibua penda 30.” Bamualuluile’shi: “Tankebikitshi su nemusangana 30.”
31 Kadi aye nkutungunuka’shi: “Nakusendeela, nanyingi’eshimba bua kuisamba na Yehowa: tubande kupuandikisha’shi mubasanganyibua penda 20.” Bamualuluile’shi: “Tankekibutula pa muanda wa baba 20.”
32 Nfudiilo a bioso aye nkuakula’shi: “Yehowa, nakusendeela, tokuatanga namu nsungu, tandiile namu ngakule musango wa nfudiilo: Tubande kupuandikisha’shi mubasanganyibua penda ekumi.” Bamualuluile’shi: “Tankekibutula pa muanda wa diadia ekumi.”
33 Pabapuile Yehowa kuisamba na Abalahama, bayile na Abalahama nkualukiila kuaye.
