Kinohi 14
1 I KA manawa ia Amerapela ke alii o Sinara, o Arioka ke alii o Elasara, o Kedorelaomera ke alii o Elama, a o Tidala ke alii o Goima;
It came about in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Kedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim,
2 Kaua mai la lakou me Bera ke alii o Sodoma, me Biresa ke alii o Gomora, me Sinaba ke alii o Adema, me Semebara ke alii o Zeboima, a me ke alii o Bela, oia hoi o Zoara.
that they made war against Bera, king of Sodom, Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, Shemeber, king of Zeboyim, and the king of Bela (also called Zoar).
3 I hoakoakoaia keia poe a pau ma ke awawa o Sidima, kahi ia o ka moana paakai.
These latter five kings joined together in the Valley of Siddim (also called the Salt Sea).
4 Hookauwa aku la lakou na Kedorelaomera i na makahiki he umikumamalua; a i ka umikumamakolu o ka makahiki, kipi ae la lakou.
Twelve years they had served Kedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 A i ka makahiki umikumamaha, hele mai la o Kedorelaomera, a me ia pu ua mau alii la, a hahau mai la i ka Repaima ma Aseterota Kanaima, me ka Zuzima ma Hama, a me ka Emima ma Sehave ma Kiriataima.
Then in the fourteenth year, Kedorlaomer and the kings who were with him came and attacked the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
6 A me ka Hora ma ko lakou mauna Seira, a hiki Elepazana ma ka waoakua.
and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, as far as El Paran, which is near the desert.
7 A hoi mai la lakou, a hiki mai la i Enemisepata, oia o Kadesa, a hahau aku ia i ko ka aina a pau o ka Amaleki, a me ka Amori i noho la ma Hazezona-tamara.
Then they turned and came to En Mishpat (also called Kadesh), and defeated all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who lived in Hazezon Tamar.
8 Hele aku la ke alii o Sodoma me ke alii o Gomora, me ke alii o Adema, a me ke alii o Zeboima, a me ke alii o Bela, oia hoi o Zoara; a kaua aku la lakou me kela poe ma ke awawa o Sidima;
Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboyim, and the king of Bela (also called Zoar) went out and prepared for battle in the Valley of Siddim
9 Me Kedorelaomera ke alii o Elama, a me Tidala ke alii o Goima, a me Amerapela ke alii o Sinara, a me Arioka ke alii o Elasara; o na'lii eha me na'lii elima.
against Kedorlaomer, king of Elam, Tidal, king of Goiim, Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.
10 He nui na lua bitumena ma ke awawa o Sidima; hee aku la na alii o Sodoma a me Gomora, a haule iho la ilaila; a holo aku la ka poe i koe ma ka mauna.
Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, they fell in there. Those who were left fled to the mountains.
11 Lawe pio aku la lakou i ka waiwai a pau o Sodoma a o Gomora, a me ka lakou ai a pau, a hele aku la.
So the kings took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their provisions, and went their way.
12 Lawe aku la hoi lakou ia Lota, i noho ai ma Sodoma, o ke keiki a ko Aberama kaikuaana, a me kana waiwai, a hoi aku la.
When they went, they also took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who was living in Sodom, along with all his possessions.
13 Hele mai la kekahi o ka poe i pakele, a hai mai la ia Aberama ka Hebera; no ka mea, i noho ai oia ma na laau oka no Mamere ka Amori, ka hoahanau o Esekola, a o Anera: a ua hoolauna pu lakou nei me Aberama.
One who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew. He was living by the oaks that belonged to Mamre, the Amorite, who was the brother of Eshkol and Aner, who were all allies of Abram.
14 Lohe ae la o Aberama, ua lawe pio ia kona hoahanau, alakai aku la ia i kona poe kanaka i hoomakaukauia ka poe i hanau ma kona hale iho, akolu haneri a me kumamawalu, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Dana.
Now when Abram heard that enemies had captured his relative, he led out his 318 trained men who had been born in his house, and he pursued them as far as Dan.
15 Mahele iho la oia i kona poe e ku e ia lakou, oia a me kana poe kauwa i ka po, poipo aku la ia lakou, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Hoba, aia ma ka lima hema o Damaseko.
He divided his men against them at night and attacked them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.
16 Hoihoi mai la ia i ka waiwai a pau, a lawe mai la hoi oia i kona hoahanau ia Lota, a me kona waiwai, me na wahine hoi, a me na kanaka.
Then he brought back all the possessions, and also brought back his relative Lot and his goods, as well as the women and the other people.
17 Hele aku ke alii o Sodoma iwaho e halawai me Aberama, mahope o kona hoi hou ana mai mai ka luku ana ia Kedorelaomera a me na alii me ia, ma ke awawa o Save, oia ke awawa o ke alii.
After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (also called the King's Valley).
18 A o Melekizedeka ke alii o Salema, lawe mai la ia i ka berena a me ka waina: oia ke kahuna o ke Akua kiekie loa.
Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High.
19 Hoomaikai mai la oia ia ia, i mai la, E pomaikai no o Aberama i ke Akua kiekie loa, nona ka lani a me ka honua.
He blessed him saying, “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth.
20 E hoomaikaiia hoi ke Akua kiekie loa, nana i hoolilo mai kou poe enemi iloko o kou lima. A haawi aku la ia nana i ka hapaumi o na mea a pau.
Blessed be God Most High, who has given your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.
21 I mai la ke alii o Sodoma ia Aberama, o ke kanaka ko'u, a e lawe oe i ka waiwai nou.
The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, and take the goods for yourself.”
22 I aku la o Aberama i ke alii o Sodoma, Ua hapai aku no au i ko'u lima ia Iehova, i ke Akua kiekie loa, i ka mea nona ka lani a me ka honua,
Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have lifted up my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
23 Aole au e lawe no'u i kekahi maawe, aole hoi kekahi mea iki o kau, o olelo ae oe, Ua waiwai o Aberama ia'u:
that I will not take a thread, a sandal strap, or anything that is yours, so that you can never say, 'I have made Abram rich.'
24 O ka mea wale no a ka poe kanaka opiopio i ai ai, a me ka puu waiwai pio a ka poe kanaka i hele pu ai me an, o Anera, o Esekola, a o Mamere; e lawe lakou i ko lakou puu.
I will take nothing except what the young men have eaten and the share of the men that went with me. Let Aner, Eshkol, and Mamre take their portion.”
