iGenesis 18
uYehova noAbraham bathetha ngeSodom neGomora
1uYehova wabonakala kuye eMiokini kaMamre, ehleli emnyango wentente emini enkulu. 2Wawaphakamisa amehlo akhe, wabona amadoda amathathu emi ngakuye; wawabona, wagidima, waya kuwakhawulela emnyango wentente, waqubuda. 3Wathi, Nkosi, ukuba ndibonise inceba emehlweni akho, musa ukudlula kumkhonzi wakho. 4Makuthatyathwe amanzi, nihlambe iinyawo zenu, niphumle phantsi komthi lowo. 5Ndiya kuya ndithabathe iqhekeza lesonka, ndithuthuzele iintliziyo zenu; emveni koko nodlula, ngokuba uze kumkhonzi wakho ngenxa yoko. Athi: Yenza njengoko uthethile. 6Wakhawuleza uAbraham, waya kuSara ententeni, wathi, Khawulungise iiseha ezintathu zomgubo ocoliweyo, uwose, wenze amaqebengwana eziko. 7Wagidima waya ezinkomeni uAbraham, wathabatha ithole lenkomo, lithambile, lihle, wanika umfana; wakhawuleza. 8Wathabatha ubisi, nobisi, nethole lenkomo, abelilungisile, wabeka phambi kwabo; wema nawo phantsi komthi, adla. 9Athi kuye, Uphi na uSara umkakho? Wathi, Nanko ententeni. 10Wathi, Ndiya kubuyela kuwe, okunene ngexesha lodla ubomi; yabona, uSara umkakho uya kuba nonyana. Weva uSara umnyango wentente ngasemva kwakhe. 11Ke kaloku uAbraham noSara babebadala, bebadala; yaye wayenqamka ukuba kuSara njengomfazi. 12uSara wahleka entliziyweni yakhe, wathi, Ndingade ndibe noyolo na ndaluphele, nenkosi yam yaluphele nje? 13Wathi uYehova kuAbraham, Yini na ukuba uSara ahleke, esithi, Yabona, ndiya kuzala mna ngoku? 14Ngaba ikho into angenakuyenza uYehova? Ngexesha elimisiweyo ndiya kubuyela kuwe, lakubuya eli xesha, uSara abe nonyana. 15Wakhanyela uSara, esithi, Andihlekanga; ngokuba ebesoyika. Waphendula ke yena wathi, Hayi; kodwa wahleka. 16Emka apho amadoda lawo, abheka ngaseSodom; wahamba nawo uAbraham, ewakhokela indlela yawo. 17Wathi uYehova, Ndomfihlela na uAbraham into endiza kuyenza? 18Yabonani, uAbraham uya kuba luhlanga olukhulu, olunamandla, zisikeleleke ngaye iintlanga zonke zehlabathi. 19Kuba ndaze yena, ukuze abawisele umthetho oonyana bakhe, nendlu yakhe emva kwakhe, bagcine indlela kaYehova, benze ngokwesiko nangobulungisa; ukuze uYehova amzise kuAbraham oko wakuthethayo ngaye. 20Wathi uYehova, Kungenxa yokuba isikhalo saseSodom neGomora sikhulu, nangenxa yokuba isono sabo sinzima kunene; 21Ndiya kuhla ngoku, ndibone, ukuba ubenze ngokwesikhalo esifike kum; ukuba akunjalo, ndazi. 22Ajika apho amadoda lawo aza aya eSodom, kodwa uAbraham waqhubeka emi phambi koYehova. 23Wasondela uAbraham, wathi, Ungatshabalalisa na olilungisa nongendawo? 24Mhlawumbi kukho amashumi amahlanu amalungisa phakathi komzi; Niya kuyitshabalalisa na ke loo ndawo, ningawacongi amalungisa amashumi mahlanu akuyo? 25Makube lee kuwe ukwenza loo nto ukubulala olilungisa nongendawo, olilungisa abe njengongendawo onyathela kude nawe. 26Wathi uYehova, Ukuba ndithe ndafumana amalungisa amashumi mahlanu emzini waseSodom, ndoyixolela yonke loo ndawo ngenxa yawo. 27Waphendula uAbraham, wathi, Yabona, ndigqibe kwelokuba ndithethe kuYehova, eluthuli nothuthu. 28Mhlawumbi aya kuswela isihlanu kumashumi amahlanu amalungisa; Unokuwutshabalalisa na umzi wonke, ngenxa yokuswela kwabahlanu? Wathi, Nokuba ndithe ndafumana khona amashumi omané anesihlanu kubo, andiyi kubatshabalalisa. 29Wabuya wathetha kuye, esithi, Hleze kufunyanwa amashumi omané. Wathi, Andiyi kuyenza loo nto ngenxa yamashumi omane. 30Wathi kuye, Mayingabi namsindo iNkosi, ndithi, Mhlawumbi bangamashumi amathathu. Wathi, Ukuba ndithe ndafumana amashumi omathathu. 31Wathi, Khawubone, ndithethe kuYehova; mhlawumbi kofunyanwa amashumi amabini. Wathi, Andiyi kuwonakalisa ngenxa yamashumi omabini. 32Wathi, Mayingabi namsindo iNkosi, ndiphinde ndithethe; Wathi, Andiyi kuwonakalisa ngenxa yabalishumi. 33uYehova waqhubeka nohambo lwakhe, akuba wayeka ukuthetha kuAbraham, waza uAbraham wabuyela ekhayeni lakhe.
