Genesis 14

1 And it came to pass in the reign of Amarphal king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, that Chodollogomor king of Elam, and Thargal king of nations,

那時史納爾王阿默辣斐耳，厄拉撒爾王阿黎約客，厄蘭王革多爾老默爾，哥因王提達耳，

2 made war with Balla king of Sodom, and with Barsa king of Gomorrha, and with Sennaar, king of Adama, and with Symobor king of Seboim and the king of Balac, this is Segor.

興兵攻擊索多瑪王貝辣，哈摩辣王彼爾沙，阿德瑪王史納布，責波殷王舍默貝爾及貝拉即左哈爾王。

3 All these met with one consent at the salt valley; this is [now] the sea of salt.

那些王子會合於息丁山谷，即今日的鹽海。

4 Twelve years they served Chodollogomor, and the thirteenth year they revolted.

他們十二年之久隸屬於革多爾老默爾，在十三年上就背叛了。

5 And in the fourteenth year came Chodollogomor, and the kings with him, and cut to pieces the giants in Astaroth, and Carnain, and strong nations with them, and the Ommaeans in the city Save.

在十四年上，革多爾老默爾率領與他聯盟的君王前來，在阿市塔特卡爾那殷擊敗了勒法因，在哈木擊敗了組斤，在克黎雅塔殷平原擊敗了厄明，

6 And the Chorrhaeans in the mountains of Seir, to the turpentine tree of Pharan, which is in the desert.

在曷黎人的色依爾山擊敗了曷黎人，一直殺到靠近曠野的厄耳帕蘭；

7 And having turned back they came to the well of judgment; this is Cades, and they cut in pieces all the princes of Amalec, and the Amorites dwelling in Asasonthamar.

然後回軍轉到恩米市帕特，即卡德士，征服了阿瑪肋克人的全部領土，也征服了住在哈匝宗塔瑪爾的阿摩黎人。

8 And the king of Sodom went out, and the king of Gomorrha, and king of Adama, and king of Seboim, and king of Balac, this is Segor, and they set themselves in array against them for war in the salt valley,

索多瑪王哈摩辣王，阿德瑪王，責波殷王和貝拉即左哈爾王於是出來，在息丁山谷列陣，

9 against Chodollogomor king of Elam, and Thargal king of nations, and Amarphal king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, the four kings against the five.

與厄蘭王革多爾老默爾，哥因王提達耳，史納爾王阿漠辣斐耳和厄拉撒爾王阿黎約客交戰：四個王子敵對五個王子。

10 Now the salt valley [consists of] slime-pits. And the king of Sodom fled and the king of Gomorrha, and they fell in there: and they that were left fled to the mountain country.

息丁山谷遍地是瀝青坑；索多瑪王和哈摩辣王逃跑時都跌在坑裏；其餘的人都逃到山裏去了。

11 And they took all the cavalry of Sodom and Gomorrha, and all their provisions, and departed.

那四個王子劫走了索多瑪和哈摩辣所有的財物和一切食糧，

12 And they took also Lot the son of Abram's brother, and his baggage, and departed, for he lived in Sodom.

連亞巴郎兄弟的兒子羅特和他的財物也帶走了，因為那時他正住在索多瑪。

13 And one of them that had been rescued came and told Abram the Hebrew; and he lived by the oak of Mamre the Amorite the brother of Eschol, and the brother of Aunan, who were confederates with Abram.

有個逃出的人跑來，將這事告訴了希伯來人亞巴郎，他那時住在阿摩黎人瑪默勒的橡樹區；這阿摩黎人原是亞巴郎的盟友厄市苛耳和阿乃爾的兄弟。

14 And Abram having heard that Lot his nephew had been taken captive, numbered his own home-born [servants] three hundred and eighteen, and pursued after them to Dan.

亞巴郎一聽說他的親人被人擄去，遂率領家生的步兵三百一十八人，直追至丹。

15 And he came upon them by night, he and his servants, and he struck them and pursued them as far as Choba, which is on the left of Damascus.

夜間又和自己的僕人分隊襲擊，將他們擊敗，直追至大馬士革以北的曷巴，

16 And he recovered all the cavalry of Sodom, and he recovered Lot his nephew, and all his possessions, and the women and the people.

奪回了所有的財物，連他的親屬羅特和他的財物，以及婦女和人民都奪回來了。

17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter of Chodollogomor, and the kings with him, to the valley of Saby; this was the plain of the kings.

亞巴郎擊敗革多老默爾和與他聯盟的王子回來時，索多瑪王出來，到沙委山谷，即「君王山谷」迎接他。

18 And Melchisedec king of Salem brought forth loaves and wine, and he was the priest of the most high God.

撒冷王默基瑟德也帶了餅酒來，他是至高者天主的司祭，

19 And he blessed Abram, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, who made heaven and earth,

祝福他說：「願亞巴郎蒙受天地的主宰，至高者天主的祝福!

20 and blessed be the most high God who delivered your enemies into your power. And Abram gave him the tithe of all.

願將你的敵人交於你手中的至高者的天主受讚美! 」亞巴郎遂將所得的，拿出十分之一，給了默基瑟德。

21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the men, and take the horses to yourself.

索多瑪王對亞巴郎說：「請你將人交給我，財物你都拿去罷! 」

22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I will stretch out my hand to the Lord the most high God, who made the heaven and the earth,

亞巴郎卻對索多瑪王說：「我向上主、至高者天主、天地的主宰舉手起誓：

23 [that] I will not take from all your goods from a string to a shoe-latchet, lest you should say, I have made Abram rich.

凡屬於你的，連一根線，一根鞋帶，我也不拿，免得你說：我使亞巴郎發了財。

24 Except what things the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men that went with me, Eschol, Aunan, Mambre, these shall take a portion.

除僕從吃用了的以外，我什麼也不要；至於與我同行的人阿乃爾、厄市苛耳和瑪默勒所應得的一分，應讓他們拿去。」
