< Genesis 14 >

1 Tokosra akosr, Amraphel lun Babylonia, Arioch lun Ellasar, Chedorlaomer lun Elam, ac Tidal lun Goiim,
And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim,
2 elos som in mweun lain tokosra limekosr saya: Bera lun Sodom, Birsha lun Gomorrah, Shinab lun Admah, Shemeber lun Zeboiim, ac tokosra lun Bela (ku Zoar).
that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar).
3 Tokosra limekosr inge toeni orala u se, ac fahsreni nu Infalfal Siddim, su pa Meoa Misa in pacl inge.
All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (the same is the Salt Sea).
4 Elos tuh muta ye nununku lal Chedorlaomer ke yac singoul luo, tusruktu in yac se aksingoul tolu elos tuyak lainul.
They served Chedorlaomer twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 In yac aksingoul akosr Chedorlaomer ac tokosra tolu wial tuku wi un mwet mweun lalos ac kutangla mwet Rephaim in acn Ashtaroth Karnaim, oayapa mwet Zuzim in acn Ham, mwet Emim in acn tupasrpasr lun Kiriathaim,
And in the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,
6 ac mwet Hor infulan eol Edom, ukwalos na nwe Elparan sisken acn mwesis.
and the Horites on their mount Seir, to Elparan, which is by the wilderness.
7 Na elos forla ac foloko nu Kadesh (in pacl so pangpang Enmishpat.) Elos eisla acn nukewa lun mwet Amalek, ac kutangla mwet Amor su muta Hazazon Tamar.
And they returned, and came to En-mishpat (the same is Kadesh), and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, who dwelt in Hazazon-tamar.
8 Na Tokosra lun Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim, ac Bela elos mokuiyak wi un mwet mweun lalos in mweun Infalfal Siddim
And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar), and they set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim,
9 lain tokosra lun Elam, Goiim, Babylonia, ac Ellasar — tokosra limekosr lain tokosra akosr.
against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.
10 Infalfal sac sessesla ke lufin tar, ac ke tokosra lun Sodom ac Gomorrah srike in kaingla liki mweun uh, elos putatyang nu in luf inge, a tokosra tolu saya uh kaingla nu fineol ah.
Now the valley of Siddim was full of slime pits. And the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell there. And those who remained fled to the mountain.
11 Tokosra akosr ah usla ma nukewa in acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, wi mwe mongo we, ac som.
And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.
12 Lot, wen nutin ma lel Abram, el muta Sodom in pacl sac, ac elos usalla ac ma lal nukewa.
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 Tusruktu oasr mwet se kaingla ac fahkak ma sikyak inge nukewa nu sel Abram, mwet Hebrew se su muta fototo nu ke sak oal sunal Mamre, mwet Amor. Mamre ac tamulel luo wial, Eshcol ac Aner, elos welul Abram lac ke pacl in mweun.
And some man came who had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew. Now he dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner. And these were allies with Abram.
14 Ke Abram el lohng lah sruhu wen nutin mwet lel, el pangoneni mukul nukewa ke nien aktuktuk lal su etu mweun — mukul tolfoko singoul oalkosr nufon — ac ukwe na tokosra akosr ah nwe Dan.
And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Dan.
15 Ke elos sun acn we, el kitalik mwet lal ah nu ke u, ac sroang nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke fong, ac kutangulosla. El ukwalos na nwe Hobah, epang in Damascus,
And he divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
16 ac folokonma ma wap nukewa ma elos tuh usla. El oayapa folokunulma Lot, wen nutin ma lel, wi ma lal nukewa, weang mutan ac mwet kapir pac saya.
And he brought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot, and his goods, and also the women, and the people.
17 Ke Abram el foloko tukun el kutangulla Chedorlaomer ac tokosra ma welul, tokosra lun acn Sodom el illa in sonol Infalfal Shaveh (pangpang pac Infalfal lun Tokosra).
And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh (the same is the King's Valley).
18 Ac Melchizedek, su tokosra lun acn Salem ac el oayapa sie mwet tol lun God Fulatlana, el use bread ac wain nu yorol Abram,
And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine. And he was priest of God Most High.
19 ac akinsewowoyal ac fahk, “Lela God Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu, in akinsewowoyal Abram!
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth.
20 Lela in kaksakinyuk God Fulatlana, su asot kutangla nu sum fin mwet lokoalok lom!” Ac Abram el sang nu sel Melchizedek sie tafu singoul in ma wap nukewa ma el folokonma.
And blessed be God Most High, who has delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And Abram gave him a tenth of all.
21 Tokosra lun Sodom el fahk nu sel Abram, “Sruokya ma wap an lom, tusruktu folokonma nufon mwet luk an.”
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the men, and take the goods to thyself.
22 Na Abram el fahk, “Nga orala fulahk luk ye mutun LEUM GOD, El su Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu,
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted up my hand to Jehovah, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,
23 lah nga ac fah tiana sruokya kutena ma lom, finne turet soko ku soko mwe lohl fahluk, kom in mau tia ku in fahk mu, ‘Nga pa oru Abram el kasrup.’
that I will not take a thread nor a shoe latchet nor anything that is thine, lest thou should say, I have made Abram rich,
24 Nga fah tiana eis kutena ma, sayen ma mwet luk inge orekmakin tari uh. Tusruktu lela elos su wiyu inge (Aner, Eshcol, ac Mamre) in eis ip lalos.”
except only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them take their portion.
