< Kenehi 14 >

1 Na, i nga ra o Amarapera, Kingi o Hinara, o Arioka, kingi o Eratara, o Keroraoma, kingi o Erama, o Tirara hoki, kingi o Korimi;
And it chaunsed within a while that Amraphel kynge of Synear Arioch kynge of Ellasar Kedorlaomer kynge of Elam and Thydeall kynge of the nations:
2 Ka whawhai enei ki a Pera, kingi o Horoma, ratou ko Pireta, kingi o Komora, ko Hinapa, kingi o Arema, ko Hemepera, kingi o Tepoimi, ko te kingi hoki o Pera, ara o Toara.
made warre wyth Bera kynge of Sodoh and with Birsa kynge of Gomorra. And wythe Sineab kynge of Adama and with Semeaber kynge of Zeboim and wyth the kynge of Bela Which Bela is called Zoar.
3 I huihui katoa enei ki te raorao i Hirimi, ara ki te Moana Tote.
All these came together vnto the vale of siddim which is now the salt see
4 Kotahi tekau ma rua nga tau i mahi ai ratou ki a Keroraoma, a i te kotahi tekau ma toru o nga tau ka whakakeke ratou.
Twelve yere were they subiecte to kinge kedorlaomer and in the. xiij. yere rebelled.
5 Na i te tekau ma wha o nga tau ka haere mai a Keroraoma, ratou ko nga kingi i whakauru ki a ia, a patua iho e ratou nga Repaima i Ahateroto Karanaima, ratou ko nga Tutimi i Hama me nga Emime i Hawe Kiriataima,
Therfore in the. xiiij. yere came kedorlaomer and the kynges that were wyth hym and smote the Raphayms in Astarath Karnaim and the Susims in Hain ad the Emyms in Sabe Kariathaim
6 Me nga Hori i to ratou maunga, i Heira, a tae noa ki Ereparana, ki te taha o te koraha.
and the Hozyms in their awne mounte Seir vnto the playne of Pharan which bordreth vpon the wyldernesse.
7 Na ka hoki ratou, a ka tae ki Enimihipata, ara ki Karehe, a patua katoatia ana e ratou te whenua o nga Amareki, ratou ko nga Amori i noho ra i Hatetonatamara.
And then turned they and came to the well of iugmente which is Cades and smote all the contre of the Amalechites and also the amorytes that dwell in Hazezon Thamar.
8 Na ka puta atu te kingi o Horoma, ratou ko te kingi o Komora, ko te kingi o Arema, ko te kingi o Tepoimi, me te kingi o Pera, ara o Toara; a ka turia e ratou he pakanga ki a ratou ki te raorao i Hirimi;
Than went out the kynge of Sodome and the kynge of Gomorra and the kinge of Adama and the kynge of Zeboijm and the kynge of Bela now called Zoar. And sette their men in aray to fyghte wyth them in the vale of siddim that is to say
9 Ki a Keroraoma, kingi o Erama, ki a Tirara, kingi o Koimi, ki a Amarapera, kingi o Hinara, ratou ko Arioka, kingi o Eratara, tokowha enei kingi, tokorima hoki era.
wyth kedorlaomer the kynge of Elam and with Thydeall kynge of the Nations and wyth Amraphel kynge of Synear. And with Arioch kynge of Ellasar: foure kynges agenste v.
10 Na, ki tonu te raorao i Hirimi i te poka uku; na ka whati nga kingi o Horoma raua ko Komora, a ka hinga ki reira; a rere ana nga morehu ki te maunga.
And that vale of siddim was full of slyme pyttes. And the kynges of Sodome and Gomorra fled and fell there. And the resydue fled to the mountaynes.
11 Na murua ana e ratou nga taonga katoa o Horoma, o Komora, me a ratou kai katoa, a haere ana.
And they toke all the goodes of Sodome and Gomorra and all their vitalles ad went their waye.
12 I mauria ano e ratou a Rota, te tama a te teina o Aperama, me ona taonga, a haere ana; i Horoma hoki ia e noho ana.
And they toke Lot also Abrams brothers sonne and his good (for he dwelled at Sodome) and departed:
13 Na ka tae he morehu, ka korero ki a Aperama Hiperu; i te noho hoki ia i nga oki o Mamere Amori, teina o Ehekora, he teina ia no Anera: kotahi ano to ratou whakaaro ko Aperama.
Than came one that had escaped and tolde Abram the hebrue which dwelled in the okegrove of Mamre the Amoryte brother of Eschol and Aner: which were confederate wyth Abram.
14 A, i te rongonga o Aperama, kua hereherea atu tona iramutu, takiritia ana e ia ana tangata mohio, nga mea i whanau ki tona whare, e toru rau kotahi tekau ma waru, a whaia ana ratou ki Rana.
When Abram herde that his brother was taken he harnessed his seruantes borne in his owne house. iij. hundred and. xviij. ad folowed tyll they came at Dan.
15 Na wahia ana ratou ko ana tangata kia rua nga matua, hei whakaeke mo ratou i te po, a patua ana ratou e ia, whaia ana, a tae noa ki Hopaha, ki te taha ki maui o Ramahiku.
And sette hymselfe ad his seruantes in aray and fell vpon them by nyght and smote them and chased them awaye vnto Hoba: which lyeth on the lefte hande of Damascos
16 A whakahokia mai ana e ia nga taonga katoa, whakahokia mai ana ano hoki tona iramutu, a Rota, me ona taonga, me nga wahine ano hoki, me nga tangata.
and broughte agayne all the goodes and also his brother Lot ad his goodes the weme also and the people.
17 Na ka puta mai te kingi o Horoma ki te whakatau i a ia i tona hokinga mai i te patu i a Keroraoma ratou ko ona hoa, ko nga kingi ki te raorao o Hawe, ara ki te Raorao o te Kingi.
And as he retourned agayne from the slaughter of kedorlaomer and of the kynges that were with hym than came the kynge of Sodome agaynst hym vnto the vale of Saue which now is called kynges dale.
18 A i maua mai e Merekihereke, e te kingi o Harema, he taro, he waina: he tohunga ano hoki ia no te Atua, no te Runga Rawa.
Than Melchisedech kinge of Salem brought forth breed and wyne. And he beynge the prest of the most hyghest God
19 Na ka manaaki ia i a ia, ka mea, Kia manaakitia a Aperama e te Atua, e te Runga Rawa, nona nei te rangi me te whenua:
blessed hym saynge. Blessed be Abram vnto the most hyghest God possessor of heauen and erth.
20 Kia manaakitia ano te Atua, te Runga Rawa, nana nei i tuku mai ou hoariri ki tou ringa. A ka hoatu e ia ki a ia nga whakatekau o nga mea katoa.
And blessed be God the most hyghest which hath delyvered thyne enimies in to thy handes. And Abra gaue hym tythes of all.
21 Na ka mea te kingi o Horoma ki a Aperama, Homai nga tangata ki ahau, ko nga taonga ia tangohia mou.
Than sayd the kynge of Sodome vnto Abram: gyue me the soulles and take the goodes to thy selfe.
22 Ano ra ko Aperama ki te kingi o Horoma, Kua totoro atu toku ringa ki a Ihowa, ki te Atua, ki te Runga Rawa, nona nei te rangi me te whenua;
And Abram answered the kynge of Sodome: I lyfte vpp my hande vnto the LORde God most hygh possessor of heaven ad erth
23 E kore ahau e tango ahakoa he miro, ahakoa he here no te hu, i tetahi mea ranei au, kei mea koe, naku a Aperama i whai taonga ai:
that I will not take of all yt is thyne so moch as a thred or a shoulacher lest thou shuldest saye I haue made Abra ryche.
24 Kati ano i a nga taitama i kai ai, me te wahi a nga tangata i haere tahi nei matou, a Anera, ratou ko Ehekora, ko Mamere; ma ratou e tango te wahi i a ratou.
Saue only that which the yonge men haue eaten ad the partes of the men which went wyth me. Aner Escholl and Mamre. Let them take their partes.
