< Genesis 14 >

1 In those days Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim
Ary tamin’ ny andron’ i Amrafela, mpanjakan’ i Sinara, sy Arioka, mpanjakan’ i Elasara, sy Kedorlaomera mpanjakan’ i Elama, ary Tidala, mpanjakan’ ny Goïma,
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).
dia nandeha izy ireo ka nanafika an’ i Bera, mpanjakan’ i Sodoma, sy Birsa, mpanjakan’ i Gomora, sy Sinaba, mpanjakan’ i Adma, sy Semebera, mpanjakan’ i Zeboïma, ary ny mpanjakan’ i Bela (dia Zoara izany).
3 The latter five came as allies to the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea ).
Ary ireo rehetra ireo dia nanao fotoana ka nivory tao an-dohasahan’ i Sidima (dia ny Ranomasin-tsira izany).
4 For twelve years they had been subject to Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
Fa efa nanompo an’ i Kedorlaomera roa ambin’ ny folo taona ireo, fa tamin’ ny taona fahatelo ambin’ ny folo kosa dia niodina izy.
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,
Ary tamin’ ny taona fahefatra ambin’ ny folo dia tonga Kedorlaomera sy ireo mpanjaka nomba azy ka namely ny Refaïta tany Astarta-karnaima sy ny Zozima tany Hama ary ny Emima tany Save-kiriataima
6 and the Horites in the area of Mount Seir, as far as El-paran, which is near the desert.
ary ny Horita tany an-tendrombohitra Seïra hatrany El-parana, izay eo anilan’ ny efitra.
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.
Dia niverina indray izy ireo ka nankany Ena-mispata (dia Kadesy izany) ka namely ny tany rehetra an’ ny Amalekita sy ny Amorita koa, izay nonina tany Hazazon-tamara.
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
Dia nivoaka ny mpanjakan’ i Sodoma sy ny mpanjakan’ i Gomora sy ny mpanjakan’ i Adma sy ny mpanjakan’ i Zeboïma ary ny mpanjakan’ i Bela (dia Zoara izany) ka nilahatra hiady amin’ ireo teo an-dohasahan’ i Sidima,
9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five.
dia tamin’ Kedorlaomera, mpanjakan’ i Elama, sy Tidala, mpanjakan’ ny Goïma sy Amrafela, mpanjakan’ i Sinara ary Arioka, mpanjakan’ i Elasara; dia mpanjaka efatra no niady tamin’ ny mpanjaka dimy.
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.
Ary ny lohasahan’ i Sidima, dia be lavak’ asfalta, ary nandositra ny mpanjakan’ i Sodoma sy ny mpanjakan’ i Gomora ka latsaka tao; ary ny sisa nandositra tany an-tendrombohitra.
11 The four kings seized all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food, and they went on their way.
Ary izy ireo namabo ny fananana rehetra tao Sodoma sy Gomora ary ny hanina rehetra, dia lasa nandeha.
12 They also carried off Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since Lot was living in Sodom.
Ary namabo ny zana-drahalahin’ i Abrama koa izy, dia Lota, mbamin’ ny fananany, dia lasa nandeha; fa nonina tao Sodoma koa Lota.
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.
Ary tonga ny anankiray izay efa nandositra ka nanambara tamin’ i Abrama Hebreo izay nonina teo an-kazo terebintan’ i Mamre Amorita, rahalahin’ i Eskola sy Anera; fa ireo dia olona efa vita fanekena tamin’ i Abrama.
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.
Ary raha nahare Abrama fa lasan-ko babo ny rahalahiny dia nitondra ny ompikeliny valo ambin’ ny folo amby telon-jato izy, izay efa nahay niady, ka nanenjika hatrany Dana.
15 During the night, Abram divided his forces and routed Chedorlaomer’s army, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.
Dia nitokotoko hamely azy nony alina izy sy ny andevolahiny; dia namely azy izy ka nanenjika azy hatrany Hoba, izay ao avaratr’ i Damaskosy.
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.
Ary nampody ny fananana rehetra izy, ary Lota rahalahiny sy ny fananany dia nampodiny koa mbamin’ ny vehivavy sy ny vahoaka.
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).
Dia nivoaka ny mpanjakan’ i Sodoma hitsena an’ i Abrama teo an-dohasaha Save (Lohasahan’ ny mpanjaka izany), rehefa niverina izy avy nandresy an’ i Kedorlaomera sy ireo mpanjaka nomba azy.
18 Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine—since he was priest of God Most High —
Ary Melkizedeka, mpanjakan’ i Salema, nivoaka nitondra mofo sy divay; ary izy dia mpisoron’ Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra.
19 and he blessed Abram and said: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
Dia nitso-drano azy Izy ka nanao hoe: Hotahin’ Andriamanitra Avo indrindra anie Abrama, dia Andriamanitra Izay nahary ny lanitra sy ny tany;
20 and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of everything.
Ary isaorana anie Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra, Izay efa nanolotra ny fahavalonao teo an-tananao. Dia nomen’ i Abrama azy ny ampahafolon’ ny zavatra rehetra.
21 The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the goods for yourself.”
Ary hoy ny mpanjakan’ i Sodoma tamin’ i Abrama: Omeo ahy ny olona, fa ny fananana ento ihany ho anao.
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,
Fa hoy Abrama tamin’ ny mpanjakan’ i Sodoma: Izaho efa nanangan-tanana tamin’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitra Avo Indrindra, Izay nahary ny lanitra sy ny tany,
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.’
fa tsy handray na taretra na fehin-kapa aza amin’ izay rehetra mety ho anao andrao hataonao hoe: Izaho no nampanan-karena an’ i Abrama,
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.”
afa-tsy izay efa nohanin’ ny zatovo sy ny anjaran’ ny olona izay niaraka tamiko, dia Anera sy Eskola ary Mamre; aoka horaisin’ ireo ny anjarany.
