Ngono nkuku we Sidimu wakabe una makomba manjinji e ikontiri ngono kukati bomambo be Sodoma ne Gomora betizha, bamwe balume bakawila mu ali, bakasala bakatizhila ku matombo.

Bomambo ibaba banna bakatapa thundu yose ye Sodoma ne Gomora kose ne zojiwa, bebe beyenda.

Ngono Loti mwana we nnung'una wa Abhuramu na iye bakantapabo ne thundu iye se akabe egala mu Sodoma.

Mmwe nthu wakabe atizha, kanobudza Abhuramu we Nhebheru. Abhuramu wakabe egala pejo ne miti mikulu ye pakayengemala ya Mamure we ludzi gwe Baamori, nkulu wa Eshikolo na Anere. Bose ibaba bakabe bana nshanganyila na Abhuramu.

Ipapo Melikizedeki mambo we Salema wakabe ali mpirisiti we Ndzimu Upezhugwi zhugwi kazhisa tjiwunga ne nkumbi we zhambi kuna Abhuramu,

ngono kankombolela eti, “Ndzimu Upezhugwi zhugwi, Mbumbi we kudzimu ne shango, ngaukombolele Abhuramu!

Ngakulumbidziwe Ndzimu Upezhugwi zhugwi wakupa kukunda zwita zwizo!” Ngono Abhuramu kapa Melikizedeki tjebugumi tje tjimwe ne tjimwe.

Mambo we Sodoma kati kuna Abhuramu, “Undipe bathu koga, thundu yose uizwitolegwe.”

Koga Abhuramu kashandula mambo we Sodoma eti, “Ndakatuna mbeli kwa Yahwe, Ndzimu Upezhugwi zhugwi, Mbumbi we kudzimu ne shango,

kuti akuna tjitjo tjandingatola nenguba ili thali kene ntjili we shangu kuti usitongoti ukadwa uti, ‘Ndimi ndakafumisa Abhuramu.’

Akuna tjitjo tjandingatola kuzhe kwe zwakajiwa ne babhayani bangu ne gobe le bandakabe ndayenda nabo, Anere na Eshikolo na Mamure. Ngabatole gobe labo.”
