Sodoma irimbuka: Loti akarokoka

¹ Ba Bamalayika uko ari babiri bagera i Sodoma nimugoroba. Loti yari yicaye ku irembo ry’umugi. Loti ngo ababone arahaguruka, arabasanganira, arapfukama yubika umutwe ku butaka.

² Nuko aravuga ati «Ndabinginze, ba databuja, nimwinjire mu nzu y’umugaragu wanyu, mwoge ibirenge, murare, maze ejo muzazinduke mukomeze urugendo rwanyu.» Baramubwira bati «Oya, turarara hariya ku irembo.»

³ Arakomeza arabahata, baremera bajya iwe, binjira mu nzu. Abategurira ibyo kurya, abatekeshereza utugati tudasembuye, bararya.

⁴ Babaye batararyama, baterwa n’abagabo bo muri uwo mugi wa Sodoma, kuva ku muto kugeza ku musaza, mbese abaturage bose, inzu barayigota.

⁵ Nuko bahamagara Loti bati «Abo bagabo baje iwawe iri joro bari hehe? Batuzanire tubishimisheho.»

⁶ Loti arasohoka asiga akinze.

⁷ Arababwira ati «Bavandimwe, ndabibasabye mwikora ishyano.

⁸ Dore mfite abakobwa babiri b’isugi, ngiye ahubwo kuba ari bo mbaha mubakoreshe icyo mushaka; naho bariya bagabo ntimugire icyo mubatwara, kuko ari abashyitsi banjye.»

⁹ Baramusubiza bati «Hoshi igirayo!» Barabwirana bati «Uyu nguyu asuhukiye ino vuba, none dore arigira umucamanza! Turaza kumugirira nabi kurusha uko twari kuyigirira abo bantu.» Loti baramuhirika, begera urugi ngo barumene.

¹⁰ Ariko ba bagabo babiri bakingira Loti amaboko yabo, bamugarura mu nzu, barafunga.

¹¹ Naho ya mbaga yari ihagaze ku muryango w’inzu babahuma amaso kuva ku muto kugeza ku mukuru, ntibashobora kumenya aho umuryango uherereye.

¹² Abo bagabo babaza Loti, bati «Hari abandi bantu bawe bari hano? Hari umukwe? Hari abahungu cyangwa abakobwa bawe? Abo ufite mu mugi bose, uhabakure!

¹³ Tugiye kuharimbura, kuko induru iterwa na Sodoma ari ndende imbere y’Uhoraho. None yatwohereje ngo tubarimbure.»

¹⁴ Loti ni ko gusohoka abwira abakwe be yari kuzashyingira abakobwa be ati «Nimuhaguruke muve aha hantu, kuko Uhoraho agiye kuhasenya.» Ariko abakwe be bakabona ko ari amashyengo.

¹⁵ Umuseke ukebye abamalayika batota Loti, bati «Haguruka, n’umugore wawe n’abakobwa bawe babiri bari hano, kugira ngo ejo mutazavaho muzira ibyaha by’uyu mugi.»

¹⁶ Agishidikanya, abamalayika babafata ukuboko, we n’umugore we, n’abakobwa be uko ari babiri, nuko barabasohokana, kuko Uhoraho yari yamugiriye impuhwe.

¹⁷ Babagejeje hanze, baramubwira bati «Kiza amagara yawe! Nturebe inyuma, ntugire aho uhagarara muri iki kibaya cyose. Uhungire mu misozi, udapfa.»

¹⁸ Loti arababwira ati «Oya, Nyagasani!

¹⁹ Dore, jyewe umugaragu wawe, nagize ubutoni mu maso yawe kandi wangiriye ineza ikomeye, ukiza amagara yanjye. Ariko sinashobora guhunga ngo ngere kuri uriya musozi, icyo cyago kitaramfata ngo mpfe.

²⁰ Dore, kariya kadugudu ureba kari hafi bihagije kugira ngo nkageremo; ni kanzinya cyane, reka abe ari ho mpungira, maze mbeho!»

²¹ Undi ati «Nongeye kukugirira ubuntu, sinsenya kariya kadugudu uvuze.

²² Ngaho rero ihute uhungireyo. Kuko nta cyo nshobora gukora utaragerayo.» Ni cyo cyatumye ako kadugudu bakita Sowari (ari byo kuvuga kanzinya).

²³ Izuba ryarashe Loti ageze i Sowari.

²⁴ Nuko Uhoraho agusha kuri Sodoma na Gomora imvura y’umuriro uvanze n’ubumara biturutse ku ijuru no kuri Uhoraho.

²⁵ Atsemba iyo migi yombi n’ikibaya cyose; atsemba abaturage b’iyo migi, n’ibimera byose ku butaka birakongoka.

²⁶ Umugore wa Loti aza kureba inyuma, ahita ahinduka igishyinga cy’umunyu.

²⁷ Abrahamu azindukira aho yari yaraye ahagaze imbere y’Uhoraho.

²⁸ Yerekeza amaso kuri Sodoma na Gomora, kuri cya kibaya; abona umwotsi ucucumuka mu butaka nk’uva mu itanura.

²⁹ Nguko rero uko Imana yibutse Abrahamu, ikavana Loti mu byago, igihe irimbuye imigi y’akarere Loti yari atuyemo.

Loti n’abakobwa be

³⁰ Loti azamuka ava i Sowari ajya gutura mu misozi yirengeye, ajyana n’abakobwa be babiri. Yatinye rero gutura i Sowari, ahubwo yiturira mu buvumo, we n’abakobwa be uko ari babiri.

³¹ Umukuru aza kubwira umuto ati «Data arashaje, kandi mu gihugu cyose nta ho tuzabona umugabo ngo aturongore, nk’uko bigenda ahandi hose.

³² Ngwino tunyweshe data divayi, maze turyamane, kugira ngo dutume data asiga imbuto.»

³³ Iryo joro batereka se divayi. Umukuru ararana na se. Se ntiyabimenya, ntiyamenya igihe umukobwa yaryamiye n’igihe yabyukiye.

³⁴ Bukeye umukuru abwira umuto ati «Dore ejo nararanye na data; twongere iri joro tumutereke divayi, uze uryamane na we. Bityo tuzaba dutumye data asiga imbuto.»

³⁵ Iryo joro na none batereka se divayi. Umuto arahaguruka ajya kurarana na we. Se ntiyabimenya, ntiyamenya igihe umukobwa yaryamiye, n’igihe yabyukiye.

³⁶ Abakobwa ba Loti basama inda batyo, bazitewe na se.

³⁷ Umukuru abyara umuhungu amwita Mowabu; ni we sekuru w’Abamowabu, bakiriho n’ubu.

³⁸ Umuto na we abyara umuhungu, amwita izina rya Benihami; ni we sekuru w’Abahamoni, bakiriho n’ubu.
