Erhi ababona arhenga aha luso Iw’ecirâlo aja emunda bali, ahwera oku idaho. 3 Ababwira, erhi: «Yagirwa Nnahamwirhu nkusengire, akaba ntonyire omu masu gawe, orhageraga aha burhambi bwa mwambali wawe buzira kuyimanga. 4 Baj’ilerha mishi masungunu mukalabe amagulu, munarhamùkire hali ogu murhi. 5 Naj’ilonza ecihimbi c’omugati murhûzemwo omurhima mubul’igenda, e kuli mwaja co canarhumaga mugera aha mwa mwambali winyu eco!». Banacishuza mpu: «Ojirage nk’okwo odesire». 6 Abrahamu anacibadukira omu cirâlo emunda Sara ali ambwira, erhi: «Orhôle mirengo ishanrhu ya nshâno, obumbe onabajiriremwo orhugati. 7 Abrahamu akanya aja omu buso bwage, arhôlamwo akanina k’omutwira kashushagire bwinja akaha omwambali, naye akanya aj’ikarheganya. 8 Ayisha adwirhe amashanza, empyuhyu na kalya kanina anabâgaga, adekereza embere zabo; naye ayimanga hofi nabo aha idako ly’omurhi oku bakâlya. 9 Banacimudòsa, mpu: «Ngahi mukawe Sara ali?» Abashuza, erhi: «Yoyo otamire omu cirâlo». 10 Olya w’ecigolo aderba, erhi: «Mwaka irhondo nashub’igera hano mwawe kandi, n’ago mango, erhi mukawe Sara agwerhe mugala». Sara akazâg’iyumviza aha luso Iw’ecirâlo câli enyuma zage. 11 Ci Abrahamu na Sara bali bakola bashosi ba myaka minji, na Sara ali amahwerwa arhacijâga omu mugongo. 12 Lero Sara acishesa, erhi: «K’aga mango nahwire nakaciyumva amasima! N’ibanie oyula okola luvandagwa!». 13 Ci kwone Nya-mubàho abwira Abrahamu, erhi: «Cirhumire Sara asheka anaderha erhi: Ka kuburha nani nakaciburha nankola ncîberîre ntaye? 14 Ka hali ebirhangâzo byankayabira Nyakasane okujira? Mwaka irhondo nka gano mango, nashubira eno mwawe na Sara aburha mugala.» 15 Sara acìhakanula, erhi: «Mâshi ntashesire», ali amayoboha, ci kwone amubwira, erhi: «Neci washesire».

16 Balya balume banaciyimuka, bagenda, bàhika aha bàkalangìra Sodomo. Abrahamu àja alambagira boshi nabo mpu abaluse. 17 Nyamubàho àcîdôsa erhi: «Kurhi nafulikaga Abrahamu akantu ndâlire okujira, 18 n’obwo Abrahamu aba ishanja linene na lizibu n’agandi mashanja g’igulu goshi gagishwa muli ye? 19 Bulya nacîmwishozire nti arhegeke abana bage n’enyumpa yage enyuma zage mpu balange enjira ya Nyamubâho omu kujira ebishinganine n’ebilongîre»; na ntyo, Nyamubàho anajirira Abrahamu ebi amulaganyagya.  20 Ntyo, Nyamubàho anaciderha, erhi: «Omulenge gushobesire Sodoma na Gomora gurhali munyi! Ecaha cabo carhalusire. 21 Nkolaga nabunguluka ndole erhi nanga erhi neci bajizire ebira omulenge gubashobesire emunda ndi gumanyisize: nani ntacihabè». 22 Balya bantu barhenga halya bàja olunda Iw’e Sodomo. Abrahamu erhi aciyimanzire embere za Nyamubâho. 23 Abrahamu ayegêra, aderba, erhi: «Kâli onakolaga waherêrekeza omushiganyanya haguma n’enkola-maligo?». 24 Kwankaba habonekana bantu bashiganyanya makumi arhanu mw’olwo lugo. Kàli onakolaga wabaherêrekeza? K’orhankababalira oIwo lugo erhi abo bashiganyanya makumi arhanu galulimwo garhuma? 25 Nanga orhankajira ntyo! Okuherêrekeza omushinganyanya haguma n’enkola-maligo, okugeza omushinganyanya cikembe ciguma n’omunyabyaha. Nanga nta mango. K’omutwi w’emmanja w’igulu lyoshi arhakacitwa mmanja?» 26 Nyamubâho anacishuza, erhi: «Nkashigâna e Sodomo bantu makumi arhanu bashinganyanya omu lugo, nanababalira ecishagala coshi bo barhuma». 27 Abrahamu ashub’iderha, erhi: «Ciru nkabâ katulo na luvû, nashub’icìshomya okushambâza Nnahamwirhu. 28 Hali amango omu bashinganya makumi arhanu hankabula barhanu: Ka wanahana ecishagala coshi erhi abo barhanu bo barhumire?» Nyamubâho amushuza, erhi: «Nanga, erhi hankabâ bashinganyanya makumi ani na barhanu, ntankaciluhana». 29 Abrahamu ashubirira, erhi: «Nkaba hanayish’ibonekana makumi ani gone». Nyamubàho amushuza, erhi; «Ntakujire erhi ago makumi ani garhuma». 30 Abrahamu, erhi: «Nnawirhu arhabâga burhe, nshub’iderha; nkaba hanaciboneka makumi asharhu». Naye, erhi ntaluhane hakabonekana ago asharhu. 31 Ayushûla, erhi; «Nashub’icîshomya okushambâza Nnawirhu: Nkaba hanaciboneka makumi abirhi». Nyamubàho amushuza, erhi; «Ntacishâbe erhi ago makumi abirhi go garhuma». 32 Abrahamu, erhi: «Nnawirhu arhabâga burhe, nderhe ecinwa cizinda: Nkaba hankaciboneka ikumi lyone»; Nyamubàho amushuza, erhi: «Ntacihane erhi eryo ikumi lyo lirhumire».33 Nyamubâho erhi ays’ishambâza Abrahamu, agenda, naye Abrahamu ashubira emwage.
