Gênesis 18

23 Lelo Abulahamu nakamhejelela Mkulu Nguluwi na kumuuza, "Ndaze, kwangukomya kowakopola wanhu watanganiche hamwe na wehile? 24 Hanji wamumo wanhu watanganiche makumi gahano amo mli muji. Ndaze, koudumya muji weng’ha huuleka hebu kwa wala makumi gahano watanganiche wawele amo? 25 Ndangijesa kota hudita ahyo hebu. Kuwakopola wanhu watanganiche hamwe na wehile, watanganiche kuditilwa kota wehile. Hebu! Mtagusa wa isi yeng’ha holeka kutagusa gawele goya." 26 Mkulu Nguluwi, nakamlonjela, "Hondiwafika wanhu watanganiche makumi gahano kula Sodoma, ena ndouleka muji weng’ha uwe goya kwa mbuli ya hewo."

27 Abulahamu nakalonga, "Nanjeza kulongasa na Mkulu, hanga heni siwele chinhu, nda kota misanga na mivu hela. 28 Hanji wabaho wanhu watanganiche makumi gane na wahano kwa wala makumi gahano. Ndaze, koudumya muji weng’ha kwa vila wapunguka wanhu wahano?" Mkulu Nguluwi nakamwidichila, "Siudumya muji wone kowa na wanhu watanganiche makumi gane na wahano."

29 Abulahamu nakonjezela kulonga, "Hanji wanhu makumi gane wawele amo." Mkulu Nguluwi nakamwidichila, "Kwa mbuli ya wanhu watanganiche makumi gane, sidita ahyo."

30 Abulahamu nakonjezela kulonga, "Mkulu, ndangulanda uleche kunzudila, nani ndolonga kahi. Hanji wowabaho wanhu watanganiche makumi gadatu." Mkulu Nguluwi nakamwidichila, "Sidita ahyo hondiwafika awo wanhu makumi gadatu."

31 Abulahamu nakalonga, "Nanjeza kulonga na Mkulu kwa nhumbula ikangale. Hanji wowa baho wanhu watanganiche makumi meli." Nguluwi nakamwidichila, "Kwa mbuli ya awo wanhu makumi meli watanganiche, siudumya hebu."

32 Hamba Abulahamu nakalonga, "Mkulu, ndangulanda uleche kunzudila, ila ndolonga kahi kamwe hela. Ndaze, wone wawe wanhu watanganiche kumi, yowa ndaze?" Mkulu Nguluwi nakamwidichila, "Kwa mbuli ya awo watanganiche kumi, siudumya muji awo."

33 Mkulu Nguluwi loyasindile kulonga na Abulahamu, nakoka, naye Abulahamu nakahiluka kaye.
