Genesis 14
1 Now it happened in that time that Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Pontus, and Chedorlaomer, king of the Elamites, and Tidal, king of the Nations,
Pripetilo se je v dneh šinárskega kralja Amraféla, elasárskega kralja Arjóha, elámskega kralja Kedorlaómerja in tidálskega kralja narodov,
2 went to war against Bera, king of Sodom, and against Birsha, king of Gomorrah, and against Shinab, king of Admah, and against Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and against the king of Bela, that is Zoar.
da so se ti vojskovali s sódomskim kraljem Berom in gomórskim kraljem Biršájem, admaškim kraljem Šinábom, cebojímskim kraljem Šeméberjem in kraljem Bele, kar je Coar.
3 All these came together in the wooded valley, which is now the Sea of Salt.
Vsi ti so se skupaj srečali v Sidímski dolini, kar je slano morje.
4 For they had served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they withdrew from him.
Dvanajst let so služili Kedorlaómerju, v trinajstem letu pa so se uprli.
5 Therefore, in the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer arrived, and the kings who were with him. And they struck the Rephaim at Ashteroth of the two horns, and the Zuzim with them, and the Emim at Shaveh-Kiriathaim.
V štirinajstem letu je prišel Kedorlaómer ter kralji, ki so bili z njim in udarili Rafájevce pri Ašterót Karnájimu in Zuzéjce pri Hamu in Emejce v Šavé Kirjatájimu
6 and the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Paran, which is in the wilderness.
in Horéjce na njihovem gorovju Seír, do El Párana, ki je poleg divjine.
7 And they returned and arrived at the fountain of Mishpat, which is Kadesh. And they struck the entire region of the Amalekites, and the Amorites who dwelt in Hazazontamar.
In vrnili so se ter prišli do En Mišpáta, kar je Kadeš in udarili vso deželo Amalečanov in tudi Amoréjce, ki so prebivali v Hacecón Tamáru.
8 And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and indeed the king of Bela, which is Zoar, went forth. And they directed their point against them in the wooded valley,
In odšli so sódomski kralj, gomórski kralj, admaški kralj, cebojímski kralj in belaški kralj (isti je coarski) in se združili v bitki z njimi v Sidímski dolini
9 namely, against Chedorlaomer, king of the Elamites, and Tidal, king of the Nations, and Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Pontus: four kings against five.
z elámskim kraljem Kedorlaómerjem, s Tidálom, kraljem narodov, šinárskim kraljem Amrafélom in elasárskim kraljem Arjóhom: štirje kralji proti petim.
10 Now the wooded valley had many pits of bitumen. And so the king of Sodom and the king of Gomorrah turned back and they fell there. And those who remained, fled to the mountain.
Sidímska dolina pa je bila polna blatnih jam in sódomski kralj in gomórski kralj sta pobegnila in padla tja. Tisti, ki so preostali, pa so pobegnili h goram.
11 Then they took all the substance of the Sodomites and the Gomorrhites, and all that pertained to food, and they went away,
Pobrali so vse dobrine Sódome in Gomóre in ves njihov živež ter odšli svojo pot.
12 along with both Lot, the son of Abram’s brother, who lived in Sodom, and his substance.
Vzeli so Lota, sina Abramovega brata, ki je prebival v Sódomi in njegove dobrine ter odrinili.
13 And behold, one who had escaped reported it to Abram the Hebrew, who lived in the steep valley of Mamre the Amorite, who was the brother of Eshcol, and the brother of Aner. For these had formed an agreement with Abram.
Prišel pa je nekdo, ki je pobegnil in povedal Hebrejcu Abramu, kajti ta je prebival na ravnini Amoréjca Mamreja, Eškólovega in Anêrjevega brata; in ti so bili zavezniki z Abramom.
14 When Abram had heard this, namely, that his brother Lot had been taken captive, he numbered three hundred and eighteen of his own armed men and he went in pursuit all the way to Dan.
Ko je Abram slišal, da je njegov brat ujet, je oborožil tristo osemnajst svojih izurjenih služabnikov, rojenih v njegovi lastni hiši in jih zasledoval do Dana.
15 And dividing his company, he rushed upon them in the night. And he struck them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
Ponoči se je razdelil zoper njih, on in njegovi služabniki in jih udaril in jih zasledoval do Hobe, ki je na levi roki od Damaska.
16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, likewise the women and the people.
Vse dobrine je privedel nazaj in prav tako je privedel nazaj svojega brata Lota in njegove dobrine in tudi žene in ljudstvo.
17 Then the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter at Chedorlaomer, and the kings who were with him at the valley of Shaveh, which is the valley of the king.
Sódomski kralj pa je odšel ven, da ga sreča po njegovi vrnitvi iz pokola Kedorlaómerja in kraljev, ki so bili z njim pri dolini Šavé, ki je kraljeva dolina.
18 Then in truth, Melchizedek, the king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine, for he was a priest of the Most High God;
Melkízedek, kralj v Salemu, je prinesel kruh in vino in ta je bil duhovnik najvišjega Boga.
19 he blessed him, and he said: “Blessed be Abram by the Most High God, who created heaven and earth.
Blagoslovil ga je ter rekel: »Blagoslovljen bodi Abram od najvišjega Boga, lastnika neba in zemlje
20 And blessed be the Most High God, through whose protection the enemies are in your hands.” And he gave him tithes from everything.
in blagoslovljen bodi najvišji Bog, ki je tvoje sovražnike izročil v tvojo roko.« In on mu je dal desetine od vsega.
21 Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me these souls, and take the rest for yourself.”
Sódomski kralj pa je rekel Abramu: »Daj mi osebe, dobrine pa vzemi zase.«
22 And he responded to him: “I lift up my hand to the Lord God, the Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,
Abram je rekel sódomskemu kralju: »Svojo roko sem dvignil h Gospodu, najvišjemu Bogu, lastniku neba in zemlje,
23 that from one thread within a blanket, even to a single shoelace, I will not take anything from that which is yours, lest you say, ‘I have enriched Abram,’
da ne bom vzel ne od nitke niti ne do vezalke in da ne bom vzel nobene stvari, ki je tvoja, da ne bi ti rekel: ›Jaz sem Abrama naredil bogatega.‹
24 except that which the young men have eaten, and the shares for the men who came with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. These will take their shares.”
Samó tisto, kar so mladeniči pojedli in delež ljudi, ki so šli z menoj, Anêr, Eškól in Mamre; naj si vzamejo svoj delež.«
