1 Kaj la du angxeloj venis Sodomon vespere, kaj Lot tiam sidis cxe la pordego de Sodom. Kiam Lot ilin ekvidis, li levigxis renkonte al ili kaj klinigxis vizagxaltere.

2 Kaj li diris: Mi petas vin, sinjoroj, envenu en la domon de via sklavo kaj pasigu la nokton kaj lavu viajn piedojn, kaj vi levigxos matene kaj iros vian vojon. Kaj ili diris: Ne, ni pasigos la nokton sur la strato.

3 Kaj li tre petegis ilin, kaj ili direktis sin al li kaj envenis en lian domon; kaj li faris al ili festenon, kaj li bakis macojn, kaj ili mangxis.

4 Antaux ol ili kusxigxis, la homoj de la urbo, la homoj de Sodom, cxirkauxis la domon, de la junuloj gxis la maljunuloj, la tuta popolo, de cxiuj finoj.

5 Kaj ili vokis Loton, kaj diris al li: Kie estas la viroj, kiuj venis al vi dum la nokto? elirigu ilin al ni, por ke ni ilin ekkonu.

6 Kaj Lot eliris al ili antaux la sojlon, kaj la pordon li sxlosis post si.

7 Kaj li diris: Ho, miaj fratoj, ne agu malbone!

8 Jen mi havas du filinojn, kiuj ankoraux ne ekkonis viron; mi elirigos ilin al vi, kaj faru kun ili, kion vi deziras; nur al tiuj viroj nenion faru, cxar por tio ili venis sub la ombron de mia tegmento.

9 Sed ili diris: Iru for! Kaj ili diris plue: Vi venis cxi tien kiel fremdulo, kaj vi volas jugxi! nun ni pli malbone agos kun vi, ol kun ili. Kaj ili tre insiste postulis de la viro, de Lot, kaj ili aliris, por elrompi la pordon.

10 Tiam tiuj viroj etendis siajn manojn kaj envenigis Loton al si en la domon, kaj la pordon ili sxlosis;

11 kaj la homojn, kiuj estis antaux la sojlo de la domo, ili frapis per blindeco, de la malgrandaj gxis la grandaj, tiel ke tiuj lacigxis, sercxante la pordon.

12 Kaj la viroj diris al Lot: Kiun vi havas cxi tie? bofilon, aux viajn filojn aux viajn filinojn, aux cxiun ajn, kiun vi havas en la urbo, elirigu ilin el cxi tiu loko;

13 cxar ni ekstermos cxi tiun lokon, cxar granda farigxis ilia kriado antaux la Eternulo, kaj la Eternulo sendis nin, por gxin pereigi.

14 Kaj Lot eliris, kaj parolis kun siaj bofiloj, prenontaj liajn filinojn, kaj diris: Levigxu, eliru el cxi tiu loko, cxar la Eternulo pereigos la urbon. Sed liaj bofiloj rigardis lin kiel sxercanton.

15 Kiam levigxis la matenrugxo, la angxeloj rapidigis Loton, dirante: Levigxu, prenu vian edzinon kaj ambaux viajn filinojn, kiuj cxi tie trovigxas, por ke vi ne pereu pro la krimeco de la urbo.

16 Sed cxar li malrapidis, tial la viroj kaptis lian manon kaj la manon de lia edzino kaj la manojn de liaj du filinoj, pro kompato de la Eternulo al li, kaj ili elirigis lin kaj metis lin ekster la urbon.

17 Kaj kiam ili elkondukis lin eksteren, ili diris al li: Savu vin pro via animo; ne rigardu malantauxen kaj haltu nenie en la tuta cxirkauxajxo; sur la monton savu vin, por ke vi ne pereu.

18 Kaj Lot diris al ili: Ho, ne, mia Sinjoro!

19 Jen Via sklavo placxis al Vi, kaj granda estas la favorkoreco, kiun Vi montris al mi, konservante la vivon al mia animo; sed mi ne povas savi min sur la monton, cxar povus trafi min malfelicxo kaj mi mortus.

20 Jen cxi tiu urbo estas suficxe proksima, por kuri tien, kaj gxi estas malgranda; mi savos min tien; gxi estas ja malgranda; kaj mia animo restos viva.

21 Kaj Li diris al li: Jen Mi komplezos al vi ankaux en cxi tiu afero, kaj Mi ne renversos la urbon, pri kiu vi parolis.

22 Rapide savu vin tien, cxar Mi nenion povas fari, gxis vi venos tien. Tial tiu urbo ricevis la nomon Coar.

23 La suno levigxis super la teron, kiam Lot venis Coaron.

24 Kaj la Eternulo pluvigis sur Sodomon kaj Gomoran sulfuron kaj fajron de la Eternulo el la cxielo.

25 Kaj Li ruinigis tiujn urbojn kaj la tutan cxirkauxajxon kaj cxiujn logxantojn de la urboj kaj la kreskajxojn de la tero.

26 Kaj lia edzino ekrigardis malantauxen, kaj sxi farigxis kolono el salo.

27 Kaj matene Abraham levigxis kaj iris al la loko, kie li estis starinta antaux la Eternulo;

28 kaj li ekrigardis en la direkto al Sodom kaj Gomora kaj al la tuta lando de la cxirkauxajxo, kaj li vidis, ke jen fumo levigxas de la tero kiel fumo el forno.

29 Kaj kiam Dio estis pereiganta la urbojn de la cxirkauxajxo, Li rememoris pri Abraham, kaj Li elirigis Loton el la mezo de la ruinigado, kiam Li estis ruiniganta la urbojn, en kiuj logxis Lot.

30 Kaj Lot eliris el Coar kaj eklogxis sur la monto, kaj liaj du filinoj kun li; cxar li timis logxi en Coar. Kaj li logxis en kaverno, li kaj liaj du filinoj.

31 Kaj la pli maljuna diris al la pli juna: Nia patro estas maljuna, kaj en la lando ne ekzistas viro, kiu envenus al ni laux la moro de la tuta tero;

32 tial ni ebriigu nian patron per vino, kaj ni kusxu kun li, por ke ni aperigu de nia patro idaron.

33 Kaj ili ebriigis sian patron per vino en tiu nokto; kaj venis la pli maljuna kaj kusxis kun sia patro; kaj li ne sciis, kiam sxi kusxigxis kaj kiam sxi levigxis.

34 La morgauxan tagon la pli maljuna diris al la pli juna: Jen mi kusxis hieraux kun mia patro; ni ebriigu lin per vino ankaux en cxi tiu nokto, kaj vi venu, kusxu kun li, por ke ni aperigu de nia patro idaron.

35 Kaj ili ankaux en cxi tiu nokto ebriigis sian patron per vino; kaj la pli juna iris kaj kusxis kun li; kaj li ne sciis, kiam sxi kusxigxis kaj kiam sxi levigxis.

36 Kaj ambaux filinoj de Lot gravedigxis de sia patro.

37 Kaj la pli maljuna naskis filon, kaj sxi donis al li la nomon Moab; li estas la prapatro de la Moabidoj gxis nun.

38 Kaj la pli juna ankaux naskis filon, kaj sxi donis al li la nomon Ben- Ami; li estas la prapatro de la Amonidoj gxis nun.

2465. Verses 31-36. And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is no man in the earth to come unto us according to the way of all the earth. Come, let us make our father drink wine, and let us lie with him, and let us quicken seed from our father. And they made their father drink wine that night; and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he knew not when she lay down, nor when she arose. And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father; let us make him drink wine this night also, and go thou in and lie with him, and let us quicken seed from our father. And they made their father drink wine that night also; and the younger arose, and lay with him; and he knew not when she lay down, nor when she arose. And the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.

[2] “The firstborn said unto the younger,” signifies here as before the affections; the firstborn the affection of such good, the younger the affection of such falsity; “our father is old, and there is no man in the earth,” signifies that it is no longer known what good is, and what truth is; “to come unto us,” signifies with which they might be conjoined; “according to the way of all the earth,” signifies according to doctrinal things; the “earth” is the church. “Come, let us make our father drink wine,” signifies that they should imbue such good with falsities, which are the “wine;” “and let us lie with him,” signifies that in this way they would be conjoined; “and let us quicken seed from our father,” signifies that so there would be a newness of a sort of church.

[3] “And they made their father drink wine,” signifies that they imbued such good with falsities; “that night,” signifies when all things were in such obscurity; “and the firstborn went in,” signifies the affection of such good; “and lay with her father,” signifies that thus they were brought into accordance; “and he knew not when she lay down nor when she arose,” signifies that such a general kind of good knew no otherwise than that it was so. “And it came to pass on the morrow,” signifies afterwards “that the firstborn said unto the younger,” signifies that the affection of such good persuaded the falsity; “Behold, I lay yesternight with my father,” signifies that thus they were conjoined; “let us make him drink wine this night also,” signifies here as before that they imbued such good with falsities when everything was in such obscurity;

[4] “and go thou in and lie with him,” signifies that these things also should be conjoined; “and let us quicken seed from our father,” signifies here as before that so there would be a newness of a sort of church. “And they made their father drink wine that night also,” signifies that in that obscure state they imbued such good with falsities; “and the younger arose and lay with him,” signifies that the affection of falsity did in like manner, so that falsities appeared as truths, and in this way they were conjoined; “and he knew not when she lay down nor when she arose,” signifies that such general good knew no otherwise than that it was so. “And the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father,” signifies that hence was the origin of such a religion as is signified by Moab and the son of Ammon.

Genesis 19

Lernen

   

1 The two angels came to Sodom at evening. Lot sat in the gate of Sodom. Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them. He bowed himself with his face to the earth,

2 and he said, "See now, my lords, please turn aside into your servant's house, stay all night, wash your feet, and you can rise up early, and go on your way." They said, "No, but we will stay in the street all night."

3 He urged them greatly, and they came in with him, and entered into his house. He made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.

4 But before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, surrounded the house, both young and old, all the people from every quarter.

5 They called to Lot, and said to him, "Where are the men who came in to you this night? Bring them out to us, that we may have sex with them."

6 Lot went out to them to the door, and shut the door after him.

7 He said, "Please, my brothers, don't act so wickedly.

8 See now, I have two virgin daughters. Please let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them what seems good to you. Only don't do anything to these men, because they have come under the shadow of my roof."

9 They said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one fellow came in to live as a foreigner, and he appoints himself a judge. Now will we deal worse with you, than with them!" They pressed hard on the man Lot, and drew near to break the door.

10 But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut the door.

11 They struck the men who were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves to find the door.

12 The men said to Lot, "Do you have anybody else here? Sons-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whoever you have in the city, bring them out of the place:

13 for we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before Yahweh that Yahweh has sent us to destroy it."

14 Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters, and said, "Get up! Get out of this place, for Yahweh will destroy the city." But he seemed to his sons-in-law to be joking.

15 When the morning came, then the angels hurried Lot, saying, "Get up! Take your wife, and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the iniquity of the city."

16 But he lingered; and the men grabbed his hand, his wife's hand, and his two daughters' hands, Yahweh being merciful to him; and they took him out, and set him outside of the city.

17 It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, "Escape for your life! Don't look behind you, and don't stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!"

18 Lot said to them, "Oh, not so, my lord.

19 See now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have magnified your loving kindness, which you have shown to me in saving my life. I can't escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die.

20 See now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (isn't it a little one?), and my soul will live."

21 He said to him, "Behold, I have granted your request concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken.

22 Hurry, escape there, for I can't do anything until you get there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.

23 The sun had risen on the earth when Lot came to Zoar.

24 Then Yahweh rained on Sodom and on Gomorrah sulfur and fire from Yahweh out of the sky.

25 He overthrew those cities, all the plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew on the ground.

26 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

27 Abraham got up early in the morning to the place where he had stood before Yahweh.

28 He looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and looked, and saw that the smoke of the land went up as the smoke of a furnace.

29 It happened, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the middle of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.

30 Lot went up out of Zoar, and lived in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to live in Zoar. He lived in a cave with his two daughters.

31 The firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us in the way of all the earth.

32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

33 They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she arose.

34 It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine again, tonight. You go in, and lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."

35 They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger went and lay with him. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she got up.

36 Thus both of Lot's daughters were with child by their father.

37 The firstborn bore a son, and named him Moab. He is the father of the Moabites to this day.

38 The younger also bore a son, and called his name Ben Ammi. He is the father of the children of Ammon to this day.
