18 Nuumala-vo, Yehova+ aahimukhumelela Abrahamu eriyari ya miri suulupale sa oManre.+ Okathi owo, Abrahamu iira okilanthi ene vamukhora va etenta* awe, okathi nsuwa naatepa aya oviha. 2 Nto Abrahamu aaheemexa muru, aaweha alopwana araru yeemenle ene ottaiwene.+ Aawehaka-ru, aahikhuma vamukhora va etenta awe onaatthimakela. Nuumala waaphwanya, aahuurama mpakha vathi. 3 Nto Abrahamu aahihimya wiira: “Yehova, mwakireerela murima, xontte muhivire muheemenle vatthokoni vaka. 4 Xontte nnooruuha maasi nrapihe inawu sanyu.+ Nuumala-vo, mphumurye vamuuttutthini va mwiri ola. 5 Okhala wiira muhoorwa vatthokoni va murumeyi anyu, mukihiye kooruuheleni ephaawu wiira mukhuure mulipihe makhuva. Nuumala-vo, mutthikeleke mukwaha anyu”. Nto awo yaahaakhula wiira: “Vaareera, mwiireke ntoko muhimme anyu”.

6 Siiso, Abrahamu aahirowa moowaakuveya mutentani aari awe Sara, onamuleela wiira: “Mwaakuve, mukuxe miphimo miraru* sa otthu* wooreerexa, mweetheye ni mooxe iphaawu. 7 Nto Abrahamu aahitthimakela munsisini, othanla epooyi yooneneva ni yooreera. Nuumala-vo, aahinvahererya epooyi eyo murumeyi awe, wiira ohite ni aapeye. 8 Abrahamu aahikuxa manteeka ni eleeti ni enama ya epooyi ele yaapeiwale, opweha ohoolo wa alopwana ale araru. Okathi alopwana ale yaalya aya,+ Abrahamu eemenle vakhiviru vaya, vamuuttutthini va mwiri ole.

9 Alopwana ale yaahimukoha Abrahamu wiira: “Mwaarinyu Sara ori vai?”+ Abrahamu aahiwaakhula wiira: “Ori mutentani-mme”. 10 Vano, mulopwana mmosa aahihimya wiira: “Mwaahiyu, okathi ene yoola, miyo kinootthika. Nto mwaarinyu Sara, onrowa wiiraka omuyanre ene mwaana mwaamulopwana”.+ Vano Sara aaniwiriyana ori ene vamukhora va etenta, yeeyo yaari ottuli va mulopwana ole. 11 Abrahamu ni Sara yaahuuluvala vanceene.+ Sara aahivira iyaakha sooyara.+ 12 Nto Sara aahipacerya otheya vamurimani vawe, ohimyaka wiira: “Miyo kihuuluvala, nave apwiyaka Abrahamu ahuuluvala. Kiireke toko kinoohakalala mwaha wa omuyara mwaana?”+ 13 Yehova aahimukoha Abrahamu, iiraka: “Xeeni Sara onitheya awe, ohimyaka wiira: ‘Kiireke kinoomuyara mwaana kuuluvanle ene?’ 14 Niireke yookhala etthu Yehova onooceela awe?+ Mwaahiyu, okathi ene yoola, miyo kinootthika. Nto Sara onrowa wiiraka omuyanre ene mwaana mwaamulopwana”. 15 Masi Sara aahikhootta ahimyaka wiira: “Miyo nkitheyale!”, okhala wiira aanoova. Nto mulopwana ole aahihimya wiira: “Nnaari, nyuwo mootheya”.

16 Okathi alopwana ale yaarowa aya, Abrahamu aahaahoola, aahiya mphironi. Nto alopwana awo yaahiweha muttetthe wa oSodoma.+ 17 Yehova aahihimya wiira: “Miyo kinoomuleela Abrahamu itthu kinrowa aka opaka.+ 18 Mweekeekhai, osuulu wa Abrahamu onookhala nloko nuulupale ni noowerya. Nave maloko ootheene a mulaponi anooreelihiwa mwaha wa Abrahamu.+ 19 Miyo kinnimusuwela owo oratteene ni kinniroromela wiira onimwaaruma anaawe ni osuulu awe wootheene wiira yeetteleke iphiro sa Yehova, apakaka itthu sooreera ni sa xariya.+ Siiso, miyo Yehova, kinoomutaphula natiri kammanenle aka Abrahamu”.

20 Yehova aahihimya wiira: “Kinniwiiwa atthu anceene yinlaseyaka mwaha wa oSodoma ni oGomora.+ Nave itampi saya sootepa otakhala.+ 21 Miyo kinookhuruwa kawehe ni kisuwele akhala wiira itthu kiiwale aka ti seekeekhai aahiiso nnaari. Saahikhale seekeekhai, miyo kinoosuwela.+

22 Nuumala-vo, alopwana anli yaahikhuma anarowa oSodoma, masi Yehova+ aahanle ni Abrahamu. 23 Nto Abrahamu aahimwaattamela Muluku onamukoha wiira: “Niireke tthiri munimwaapwetexa atthu ooreera murima vamosa ni atthu ootakhala murima?+ 24 Yakhala atthu 50 ooreera murima anikhala epooma eyo, niireke munimwaapwetexa ni khamunrowa waalevelela atthu ootheene a epooma eyo, mwaha wa atthu 50 ooreera murima anikhala memmo? 25 Mweekeekhai, nyuwo khamunikhala-khala mumpwetexaka mutthu ooreera murima vamosa ni mutthu ootakhala murima.+ Nave nyuwo khamunikhala-khala mweemereryaka wiira mutthu ooreera murima, emwiiraneele etthu emosa-ru enrowa omwiiraneela mutthu ootakhala murima!+ Niireke Mulipa-oophuka milattu a olumwenku wootheene khonrowa opaka etthu ya xariya?”+ 26 Vano, Yehova aahimwaakhula wiira: “Kaaphwanya atthu 50 ooreera murima epooma ya oSodoma, miyo kinimwaalevelela atthu ootheene a muttetthe owo, mwaha wa atthu awo ooreera murima”. 27 Masi Abrahamu aahihimya-tho wiira: “Miyo ka ntthupi ni ka ettuurwa paahi! Xontte Yehova mukeemererye wiira kilavule-tho. 28 Ankhi yahala atthu athanu wiira aphiyerye 50, niireke munoopwetexa epooma eyo yootheene mwaha wa atthu athanu anihala?” Nto owo aahaakhula wiira: “Miyo nkinrowa opwetexa epooma eyo, kaaphwanya atthu 45”.+

29 Masi Abrahamu aahitthikela-tho okoha iiraka: “Ankhi yakhala atthu 40 epooma eyo?” Owo aahaakhula wiira: “Miyo nkinrowa opwetexa epooma eyo mwaha wa atthu 40”. 30 Abrahamu nlelo aahihimya-tho wiira: “Xontte Yehova muhinanariwe ni miyo,+ masi mukihiye kilavule-tho: Ankhi mwaaphwanya epooma eyo atthu 30 paahi?” Muluku aahimwaakhula wiira: “Miyo nkinrowa opwetexa epooma eyo kaaphwanya atthu 30”. 31 Masi Abrahamu aahihimya-tho wiira: “Xontte Yehova, mukeemererye kilavule-tho: Ankhi mwaaphwanya epooma eyo atthu 20 paahi?” Owo aahimwaakhula wiira: “Miyo nkinrowa opwetexa epooma eyo mwaha wa atthu 20”. 32 Vano Abrahamu aahilavula ekwaha yookiserya oriki: “Xontte Yehova, muhinanariwe ni miyo, masi mukihiye kilavule-tho ekwaha emosa: Ankhi mwaaphwanya epooma eyo atthu 10 paahi?” Nto Muluku aahimwaakhula wiira: “Miyo nkinrowa opwetexa epooma eyo mwaha wa atthu 10”. 33 Nuumala Yehova olavula ni Abrahamu, aahirowa.+ Nto Abrahamu aahitthikela owannyawe.
