11:1
Διὰ φιλοξενίαν καὶ εὐσέβειαν Λὼτ ἐσώθη ἐκ Σοδόμων, τῆς περιχώρου πάσης κριθείσης διὰ πυρὸς καὶ θείου, πρόδηλον ποιήσας ὁ δεσπότης, ὅτι τοὺς ἐλπίζοντας ἐπ αὐτὸν οὐκ ἐγκαταλείπει, τοὺς δὲ ἑτεροκλινεῖς ὑπάρχοντας εἰς κόλασιν καὶ αἰκισμὸν τίθησιν
因著好客和虔敬,羅得從所多瑪得了拯救,那時四圍全地都被火與硫磺所審判;主藉此顯明,那些仰望祂的人,祂必不撇棄,惟那偏離正道的人,祂必使其受刑罰和酷刑。
Because of hospitality and godliness Lot was saved out of Sodom, when all the surrounding region was judged by fire and brimstone; the Master thereby making it plain that He does not forsake those who hope in Him, but appoints to punishment and torment those who turn aside to other ways.
11:2
συνεξελθούσης γὰρ αὐτῷ τῆς γυναικὸς ἑτερογνώμονος ὑπαρχούσης καὶ οὐκ ἐν ὁμονοίᾳ, εἰς τοῦτο σημεῖον ἐτέθη, ὥστε γενέσθαι αὐτὴν στήλην ἁλὸς ἕως τῆς ἡμέρας ταύτης, εἰς τὸ γνωστὸν εἶναι πᾶσιν, ὅτι οἱ δίψυχοι καὶ οἱ διστάζοντες περὶ τῆς τοῦ θεοῦ δυνάμεως εἰς κρίμα καὶ εἰς σημείωσιν πάσαις ταῖς γενεαῖς γίνονται
因為他的妻子雖與他同出,卻心懷二意,不與他和睦同心,就被立為記號,變成一根鹽柱直到今日,叫眾人都知道:那些三心二意、懷疑神大能的人,必成為審判的鑑戒和警示,給世世代代看。
For though his wife went out with him, being of another mind and not in concord, she was set forth as a sign, so that she became a pillar of salt unto this day, that it might be known to all that the double-minded and those who doubt the power of God are made an example of judgment and a sign to all generations.
