18 Kepha uLoti wathi kuwo: “Nkosi, makungabi njalo.
19 Bheka, inceku yakho ifumene umusa emehlweni akho, ungenzele ububele obukhulu ngokusindisa ukuphila kwami; kepha mina angikwazi ukubalekela entabeni, funa ububi bungifice, ngife.
20 Bheka-ke, lowo muzi useduze ukuba ngibalekele kuwo, futhi mncane; ake ngibalekele khona angithi mncane ukuba umphefumulo wami uphile.”
21 Wathi kuye: “Bheka, nakule nto ngiyakukuvumela; angiyikuwuchitha lo muzi okhuluma ngawo.
22 Kepha shesha ubalekele khona, ngokuba ngingenze lutho, ungakafiki khona.” Ngalokho umuzi wabizwa ngokuthi iSowari.*
23 Ilanga laphumela emhlabeni, uLoti esangena eSowari.
24 Khona uJehova wanisa phezu kweSodoma naphezu kweGomora isibabule nomlilo, kuvela kuJehova ezulwini.
