Genesis 14

1 In those days Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim

E kindeno Amrafel ruodh Shinar, Ariok ruodh Elasar, Kedorlaomer ruodh Elam kod Tidal ruodh Goyim

2 went to war against Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar).

nodhi kedo gi Bera ruodh Sodom, Birsha ruodh Gomora, Shinab ruodh Adma, Shemeber ruodh Zeboim kod ruodh Bela (ma tiende ni Zoar).

3 The latter five came as allies to the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea ).

Ruodhi abichgi duto noriwo jolwenjgi ne kedo e Holo mar Sidim (miluongo ni Nam chumbi).

4 For twelve years they had been subject to Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

Kuom higni apar gariyo negisebedo e bwo loch Kedorlaomer, to e higa mar apar gadek ne gingʼanyo.

5 In the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer and the kings allied with him went out and defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

E higa mar apar gangʼwen, Kedorlaomer kod ruodhi mane oriwore kode nodhi omonjo kendo oloyo jo-Refai man Ashteroth Karnaim, jo-Zuzim e Ham gi jo-Emi man Shave Kiriathaim,

6 and the Horites in the area of Mount Seir, as far as El-paran, which is near the desert.

kendo jo-Hori manie gode mag Seir, mane ochwe nyaka El-Paran machiegni gi piny motimo ongoro.

7 Then they turned back to invade En-mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and they conquered the whole territory of the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.

Eka negidwogo chien kendo gidhi nyaka En Mishpat (ma tiende ni Kadesh), kendo negikawo piny jo-Amalek duto gi piny jo-Amor manodak Hazazon Tamar.

8 Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) marched out and arrayed themselves for battle in the Valley of Siddim

Eka ruodh Sodom, ruodh Gomora, ruodh Adma, ruodh Zeboim kod ruodh Bela (ma tiende ni Zoar) nowuok kendo oikore kedo moriedo jolwenjgi e Holo mar Sidim,

9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five.

mondo oked gi Kedorlaomer ruodh Elam, Tidal ruodh Goyim, Amrafel ruodh Shinar kod Ariok ruodh Elasar mi ruodhi angʼwen-go nokedo gi ruodhi abich.

10 Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, some men fell into the pits, but the survivors fled to the hill country.

Holo mar Sidim nopongʼ gi buche mag chwodho, kendo kane ruodhi mag Sodom kod Gomora ringo, moko nopodho e buchego to moko noringo otony e gode.

11 The four kings seized all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food, and they went on their way.

Ruodhi angʼwen-go noyako gik moko duto mag Sodom kod Gomora kod chiembgi duto mi gidhi.

12 They also carried off Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since Lot was living in Sodom.

Bende negikawo Lut, wuod owadgi Abram kod mwandune duto nikech noyudo odak Sodom.

13 Then an escapee came and reported this to Abram the Hebrew. Now Abram was living near the Oaks of Mamre the Amorite, a brother of Eshcol and Aner, all of whom were bound by treaty to Abram.

Ngʼat achiel mane oyudo otony nobiro kendo onyiso Abram ja-Hibrania wachni. E ndalogo Abram nodak e tiend yiende madongo mag Mamre ja-Amor mane omin Eshkol kod Aner, osiepe Abram.

14 And when Abram heard that his relative had been captured, he mobilized the 318 trained men born in his household, and they set out in pursuit as far as Dan.

Kane Abram owinjo ni watne oseter e twech, noluongo jotichge machwo motiegore mia adek gapar gaboro kendo olawogi nyaka Dan.

15 During the night, Abram divided his forces and routed Chedorlaomer’s army, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.

Gotieno Abram nopogo jotichnego e migepe mondo omonj ruodhigo kendo negiriembogi mi gilawogi nyaka Hoba, ma yo nyandwat mar Damaski.

16 He retrieved all the goods, as well as his relative Lot and his possessions, together with the women and the rest of the people.

Abram nodhi moomo gik moko duto mane joka odhigo kendo noreso Lut wuod owadgi kod mwandune duto kaachiel gi mon kod ji mamoko.

17 After Abram returned from defeating Chedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).

Bangʼ ka Abram noduogo koseloyo Kedorlaomer kod ruodhi mane oriwore kode, ruodh Sodom nobiro mondo orom kode ei Holo mar Shave (ma tiende ni Holo mar Ruoth).

18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine—since he was priest of God Most High —

Eka Melkizedek ruodh Salem nokelo makati gi divai. Ne en jadolo mar Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo,

19 and he blessed Abram and said: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,

kendo nogwedho Abram kowacho niya, “Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, Jachwech polo kod piny ogwedhi, in Abram.

20 and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of everything.

Kendo ogwedh Nying Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo mane oketo wasiki e lweti.” Eka Abram nomiye achiel kuom apar mar gik moko duto.

21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the goods for yourself.”

Ruodh Sodom nowacho ne Abram niya, “Miya ji to idongʼ gi gik moko duto.”

22 But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand to the LORD God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,

To Abram nowacho ne ruodh Sodom, “Asetingʼo lweta ne Jehova Nyasaye, ma en Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo, Jachwech polo gi piny kendo asekwongʼora

23 that I will not accept even a thread, or a strap of a sandal, or anything that belongs to you, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’

ni ok nakaw giri moro, kata mana tol kata pat kira, mondo kik chiengʼ moro iwachi ni, ‘An ema ne amiyo Abram obedo jamoko.’

24 I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share for the men who went with me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. They may take their portion.”

Ok abi kawo gimoro to mana ma joga osechamo kod pok ma joga kaka Aner, Eshkol kod Mamre onego oyudi. Onego giyud pokgi.”
