1 De to Engle kom nu til Sodoma ved Aftenstid. Lot sad i Sodomas Port, og da han fik Øje på dem, stod han op og gik dem i Møde, bøjede sig til Jorden
1 Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening as Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them and bowed down with his face to the ground.
2 og sagde: "Kære Herrer, tag dog ind og overnat i eders Træls Hus og tvæt eders Fødder; i Morgen tidlig kan I drage videre!" Men de sagde: "Nej, vi vil overnatte på Gaden."
2 And he said, “Now behold, my lords, please turn aside into your servant’s house, and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way.” They said however, “No, but we shall spend the night in the square.”
8 Se, jeg har to Døtre, der ikke har kendt Mand; dem vil jeg bringe ud til eder, og med dem kan I gøre, hvad I lyster; men disse Mænd må I ikke gøre noget, siden de nu engang er kommet ind under mit Tags Skygge!"
8 Now behold, I have two daughters who have not had relations with man; please let me bring them out to you, and do to them whatever you like; only do nothing to these men, inasmuch as they have come under the shelter of my roof.”
9 Men de sagde: "Bort med dig! Her er den ene Mand kommet og bor som fremmed, og nu vil han spille Dommer! Kom, lad os handle værre med ham end med dem!" Og de trængte ind på Manden, på Lot, og nærmede sig Døren for at sprænge den.
9 But they said, “Stand aside.” Furthermore, they said, “This one came in as an alien, and already he is acting like a judge; now we will treat you worse than them.” So they pressed hard against Lot and came near to break the door.
12 Derpå sagde Mændene til Lot: "Hvem der ellers hører dig til her, dine Svigersønner, dine Sønner og Døtre, alle, som hører dig til i Byen, må du føre bort fra dette Sted;
12 Then the two men said to Lot, “Whom else have you here? A son-in-law, and your sons, and your daughters, and whomever you have in the city, bring them out of the place;
14 Da gik Lot ud og sagde til sine Svigersønner, der skulde ægte hans Døtre: "Stå op, gå bort herfra, thi HERREN vil ødelægge Byen!" Men hans Svigersønner troede, at han drev Spøg med dem.
14 Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, and said, “Up, get out of this place, for the Lord will destroy the city.” But he appeared to his sons-in-law to be jesting.
15 Da Morgenen så gryede, skyndede Englene på Lot og sagde: "Tag din Hustru og dine to Døtre, som bor hos dig, og drag bort, for at du ikke skal rives bort ved Byens Syndeslkyld!"
15 When morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, “Up, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city.”
16 Og da han tøvede, greb Mændene ham,.hans Hustru og hans to Døtre ved Hånden, thi HERREN vilde skåne ham, og de førte ham bort og bragte ham i Sikkerhed uden for Byen.
16 But he hesitated. So the men seized his hand and the hand of his wife and the hands of his two daughters, for the compassion of the Lord was upon him; and they brought him out, and put him outside the city.
17 Og idet de førte dem uden for Byen, sagde de: "Det gælder dit Liv! Se dig ikke tilbage og stands ikke nogensteds i Jordanegnen, men red dig op i Bjergene, for at du ikke skal omkomme!"
17 When they had brought them outside, one said, “Escape for your life! Do not look behind you, and do not stay anywhere in the valley; escape to the mountains, or you will be swept away.”
19 Din Træl har jo fundet Nåde for dine Øjne, og du har vist mig stor Godhed og frelst mit Liv; men jeg kan ikke nå op i Bjergene og undfly Ulykken; den indhenter mig så jeg mister Livet.
19 Now behold, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have magnified your lovingkindness, which you have shown me by saving my life; but I cannot escape to the mountains, for the disaster will overtake me and I will die;
20 Se, den By der er nær nok til at jeg kan flygte derhen; den betyder jo ikke stort, lad mig redde mig derhen, den betyder jo ikke stort, og mit Liv er frelst!"
20 now behold, this town is near enough to flee to, and it is small. Please, let me escape there (is it not small?) that my life may be saved.”
29 Da Gud tilintetgjorde Jordanegnens Byer, kom han Abraham i Hu og førte Lot ud af Ødelæggelsen, som han lod komme over de Byer, Lot boede i.
29 Thus it came about, when God destroyed the cities of the valley, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when He overthrew the cities in which Lot lived.
30 Men Lot drog op fra Zoar og slog sig ned i Bjergene med sine Døtre, thi han turde ikke blive i Zoar; og han boede i en Hule med sine to Døtre.
30 Lot went up from Zoar, and stayed in the mountains, and his two daughters with him; for he was afraid to stay in Zoar; and he stayed in a cave, he and his two daughters.
33 De gav ham da Vin at drikke samme Nat; og den ældste lagde sig hos sin Fader, og han sansede hverken, at hun lagde sig, eller at hun stod op.
33 So they made their father drink wine that night, and the firstborn went in and lay with her father; and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.
34 Næste Dag sagde den ældste til den yngste: "Jeg lå i Går Nat hos min Fader; nu vil vi også give ham Vin at drikke i Nat, og gå du så ind og læg dig hos ham, for at vi kan få Afkom ved vor Fader!"
34 On the following day, the firstborn said to the younger, “Behold, I lay last night with my father; let us make him drink wine tonight also; then you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve our family through our father.”
35 Så gav de atter den Nat deres Fader Vin at drikke, og den yngste lagde sig hos ham, og han sansede hverken, at hun lagde sig, eller at hun stod op.
35 So they made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger arose and lay with him; and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.
