< Genesis 14 >

1 And it came to pass at that time, that Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus, and Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations,
Lè sa a, Anmrafèl te wa Chenea, Ajòk te wa Elaza, Kedòlaòmè te wa Elam, Tideal te wa lòt nasyon yo.
2 Made war against Bara king of Sodom, and against Bersa king of Gomorrha, and against Sennaab king of Adama, and against Semeber king of Seboim, and against the king of Bala, which is Segor.
Yo kat yo leve, y al fè lagè ak senk lòt wa. Bera ki te wa Sodòm, Bicha ki te wa Gomò, Cheneab ki te wa Adma, Chemebè ki te wa zeboyim yo, ak wa peyi Bela a. Peyi sa a te rele Zoa tou.
3 All these came together into the woodland vale, which now is the salt sea.
Senk wa sa yo mete tèt yo ansanm, yo reyini nan Fon Sidim lan kote lanmè Sèl la ye a.
4 For they had served Chodorlahomor twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they revolted from him.
Pandan douzan, senk wa sa yo te soumèt devan Kedòlaòmè. Lanne ki fè yo trèzan an, yo revòlte.
5 And in the fourteenth year came Chodorlahomor, and the kings that were with him: and they smote the Raphaim in Astarothcarnaim, and the Zuzim with them, and the Emim in Save of Cariathaim.
Lanne apre sa, ki pou ta fè yo katòzan nan pozisyon sa a, Kedòlaòmè ansanm ak twa wa ki te mete tèt ansanm ak li yo vin rive. Yo bat refayim yo nan lavil Astawòt-Kanayim, yo bat zouzim yo nan lavil Am, yo bat emim yo nan laplenn Chave-Kiryatayim.
6 And the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Pharan, which is in the wilderness.
Yo bat orit yo sou mòn Seyi, jouk bò kote pye bwadchenn Paran an, ki toupre dezè a.
7 And they returned, and came to the fountain of Misphat, the same is Cades: and they smote all the country of the Amalecites, and the Amorrhean that dwelt in Asasonthamar.
Apre sa, yo kase tèt tounen, yo rive bò Sous jijman an, yo bat tout chèf moun Amelèk yo, yo pran tout bèt yo. Yo bat moun Amori yo tout ki rete Azazon-Tama, yo bat yo byen bat.
8 And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha, and the king of Adama, and the king of Seboim, and the king of Bala, which is Segor, went out: and they set themselves against them in battle array in the woodland vale:
Lè sa a, wa Sodòm, wa Gomò, wa Adma, wa zeboyim ansanm ak wa Bela a, yo soti, yo pran pozisyon nan Fon Sidim lan pou yo goumen
9 To wit, against Chodorlahomor king of the Elamites, and Thadal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Pontus: four kings against five.
kont Kedòlaòmè, wa Elam, Tideal, wa lòt nasyon yo, Anmrafèl, wa Chenea ak Ajòch, wa Elaza. Sa te fè kat wa kont senk wa.
10 Now the woodland vale had many pits of slime. And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrha turned their backs and were overthrown there: and they that remained fled to the mountain.
Nan Fon Sidim lan te gen anpil twou byen fon ki te plen asfat. Pandan batay la, wa Sodòm ak wa Gomò yo pran kouri pou lènmi yo, yo te vle wete kò yo nan batay la, yo tonbe nan twou asfat yo. Lòt wa yo menm kouri al kache nan mòn.
11 And they took all the substance of the Sodomites, and Gomorrhites, and all their victuals, and went their way:
Kat wa yo pran tout sa yo jwenn nan Sodòm ak Gomò, ata pwovizyon manje, epi y al fè wout yo.
12 And Lot also, the son of Abram’s brother, who dwelt in Sodom, and his substance.
Yo pase men yo yo pran Lòt, pitit frè Abram lan, ansanm ak tout byen l' yo, paske se Sodòm Lòt te rete.
13 And behold one that had escaped told Abram the Hebrew, who dwelt in the vale of Mambre the Amorrhite, the brother of Escol, and the brother of Aner: for these had made league with Abram.
Men, yonn nan mesye ki te chape nan batay la vin di Abram sa. Lè sa a, Abram te rete toupre pye bwadchenn Manmre a. Manmre sa a, se te yon moun Amori. Se te frè Echkòl ak Ane. tout de mesye sa yo te pase kontra avèk Abram.
14 Which when Abram had heard, to wit, that his brother Lot was taken, he numbered of the servants born in his house, three hundred and eighteen well appointed: and pursued them to Dan.
Lè Abram vin konnen yo te fè neve l' la prizonye, li sanble tout domestik ki te fèt lakay li yo epi ki te konn goumen. Li pran twasandizwit (318) antou. Epi li file dèyè wa yo jouk lavil Dann.
15 And dividing his company, he rushed upon them in the night: and defeated them, and pursued them as far as Hoba, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
La, yon jou lannwit, li separe mesye li yo, li fè yo fè de gwoup, epi li atake lènmi yo. Li bat yo byen bat, li kouri dèyè yo jouk yo rive Oba, ki sou bò nò lavil Damas.
16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, the women also and the people.
Li reprann tout byen yo te pran yo, li mennen Lòt, neve li a, tounen lakay li ansanm ak tout byen l' yo, tout medam yo ak tout pèp la.
17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter of Chodorlahomor, and of the kings that were with him in the vale of Save, which is the king’s vale.
Apre Abram te fin kraze Kedòlaòmè ansanm ak tout lòt wa ki te fè tèt ansanm ak Kedòlaòmè yo, li t'ap tounen lakay li. Wa Sodòm lan vin rankontre l' nan Fon Chave a ki rele Fon Wa a tou.
18 But Melchisedech the king of Salem, bringing forth bread and wine, for he was the priest of the most high God,
Mèlkisedèk menm ki te wa peyi Salèm fè pote pen ak diven vini. Se yon prèt ki t'ap sèvi Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la li te ye.
19 Blessed him, and said: Blessed be Abram by the most high God, who created heaven and earth.
Li beni Abram, li di. Se pou Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, li menm ki fè syèl la ak latè a, beni Abram.
20 And blessed be the most high God, by whose protection the enemies are in thy hands. And he gave him the tithes of all.
Lwanj pou Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la. Se li menm ki te lage lènmi ou yo nan men ou. Apre sa, Abram ba li yon dizyèm nan tout sa li te pran.
21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram: Give me the persons, and the rest take to thyself.
Lèfini, wa Sodòm lan di Abram. Ou mèt gade tout byen yo pou ou. Men ban mwen moun yo sèlman.
22 And he answered him: I lift up my hand to the Lord God the most high, the possessor of heaven and earth,
Abram reponn wa Sodòm lan, li di l'. Mwen fè sèman devan Seyè a, Bondye ki anwo nan syèl la, li menm ki fè syèl la ak latè a,
23 That from the very woof thread unto the shoe latchet, I will not take of any things that are thine, lest thou say I have enriched Abram:
mwen p'ap pran anyen nan sa ki pou ou, li te mèt yon ti moso fil, yon kòd sapat. Konsa, ou p'ap janm ka di se ou menm ki fè Abram rich.
24 Except such things as the young men have eaten, and the shares of the men that came with me, Aner, Escol, and Mambre: these shall take their shares.
Mwen pa bezwen anyen pou tèt pa m'. Men, m'ap asepte sa moun mwen yo te manje, ansanm ak pòsyon ki pou moun ki te mache avè m' yo. Wi, se pou Ane, Echkòl ak Manmre pran sa ki vin pou yo a.
