Genesis 14

1 Now in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim,

١ وَحَدَثَ فِي أَيَّامِ أَمْرَافَلَ مَلِكِ شِنْعَارَ، وَأَرْيُوكَ مَلِكِ أَلَّاسَارَ، وَكَدَرْلَعَوْمَرَ مَلِكِ عِيلَامَ، وَتِدْعَالَ مَلِكِ جُويِيمَ،

2 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 (which is Zoar).

٢ أَنَّ هَؤُلَاءِ صَنَعُوا حَرْبًا مَعَ بَارَعَ مَلِكِ سَدُومَ، وَبِرْشَاعَ مَلِكِ عَمُورَةَ، وَشِنْآبَ مَلِكِ أَدْمَةَ، وَشِمْئِيبَرَ مَلِكِ صَبُويِيمَ، وَمَلِكِ بَالَعَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ صُوغَرُ.

3 All these came together in the valley of Siddim (which is the Salt Sea).

٣ جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ ٱجْتَمَعُوا مُتَعَاهِدِينَ إِلَى عُمْقِ ٱلسِّدِّيمِ ٱلَّذِي هُوَ بَحْرُ ٱلْمِلْحِ.

4 For twelve years they were under the rule of Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they put off his control.

٤ اِثْنَتَيْ عَشَرَةَ سَنَةً ٱسْتُعْبِدُوا لِكَدَرْلَعَوْمَرَ، وَٱلسَّنَةَ ٱلثَّالِثَةَ عَشَرَةَ عَصَوْا عَلَيْهِ.

5 And in the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer and the kings who were on his side, overcame the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

٥ وَفِي ٱلسَّنَةِ ٱلرَّابِعَةَ عَشَرْةَ أَتَى كَدَرْلَعَوْمَرُ وَٱلْمُلُوكُ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ وَضَرَبُوا ٱلرَّفَائِيِّينَ فِي عَشْتَارُوثَ قَرْنَايِمَ، وَٱلزُّوزِيِّينَ فِي هَامَ، وَٱلْإِيمِيِّينَ فِي شَوَى قَرْيَتَايِمَ،

6 And the Horites in their mountain Seir, driving them as far as El-paran, which is near the waste land.

٦ وَٱلْحُورِيِّينَ فِي جَبَلِهِمْ سَعِيرَ إِلَى بُطْمَةِ فَارَانَ ٱلَّتِي عِنْدَ ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ.

7 Then they came back to En-mishpat (which is Kadesh), making waste all the country of the Amalekites and of the Amorites living in Hazazon-tamar.

٧ ثُمَّ رَجَعُوا وَجَاءُوا إِلَى عَيْنِ مِشْفَاطَ ٱلَّتِي هِيَ قَادِشُ. وَضَرَبُوا كُلَّ بِلَادِ ٱلْعَمَالِقَةِ، وَأَيْضًا ٱلْأَمُورِيِّينَ ٱلسَّاكِنِينَ فِي حَصُّونَ تَامَارَ.

8 And the king of Sodom with the king of Gomorrah and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboiim and the king of Bela (that is Zoar), went out, and put their forces in position in the valley of Siddim,

٨ فَخَرَجَ مَلِكُ سَدُومَ، وَمَلِكُ عَمُورَةَ، وَمَلِكُ أَدْمَةَ، وَمَلِكُ صَبُويِيمَ، وَمَلِكُ بَالَعَ، ٱلَّتِي هِيَ صُوغَرُ، وَنَظَمُوا حَرْبًا مَعَهُمْ فِي عُمْقِ ٱلسِّدِّيمِ.

9 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.

٩ مَعَ كَدَرْلَعَوْمَرَ مَلِكِ عِيلَامَ، وَتِدْعَالَ مَلِكِ جُويِيمَ، وَأَمْرَافَلَ مَلِكِ شِنْعَارَ، وَأَرْيُوكَ مَلِكِ أَلَّاسَارَ. أَرْبَعَةُ مُلُوكٍ مَعَ خَمْسَةٍ.

10 Now the valley of Siddim was full of holes of sticky earth; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah were put to flight and came to their end there, but the rest got away to the mountain.

١٠ وَعُمْقُ ٱلسِّدِّيمِ كَانَ فِيهِ آبَارُ حُمَرٍ كَثِيرَةٌ. فَهَرَبَ مَلِكَا سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَسَقَطَا هُنَاكَ، وَٱلْبَاقُونَ هَرَبُوا إِلَى ٱلْجَبَلِ.

11 And the four kings took all the goods and food from Sodom and Gomorrah and went on their way.

١١ فَأَخَذُوا جَمِيعَ أَمْلَاكِ سَدُومَ وَعَمُورَةَ وَجَمِيعَ أَطْعِمَتِهِمْ وَمَضَوْا.

12 And in addition they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who was living in Sodom, and all his goods.

١٢ وَأَخَذُوا لُوطًا ٱبْنَ أَخِي أَبْرَامَ وَأَمْلَاكَهُ وَمَضَوْا، إِذْ كَانَ سَاكِنًا فِي سَدُومَ.

13 And one who had got away from the fight came and gave word of it to Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the holy tree of Mamre, the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and Aner, who were friends of Abram.

١٣ فَأَتَى مَنْ نَجَا وَأَخْبَرَ أَبْرَامَ ٱلْعِبْرَانِيَّ. وَكَانَ سَاكِنًا عِنْدَ بَلُّوطَاتِ مَمْرَا ٱلْأَمُورِيِّ، أَخِي أَشْكُولَ وَأَخِي عَانِرَ. وَكَانُوا أَصْحَابَ عَهْدٍ مَعَ أَبْرَامَ.

14 And Abram, hearing that his brother's son had been made a prisoner, took a band of his trained men, three hundred and eighteen of them, sons of his house, and went after them as far as Dan.

١٤ فَلَمَّا سَمِعَ أَبْرَامُ، أَنَّ أَخَاهُ سُبِيَ جَرَّ غِلْمَانَهُ ٱلْمُتَمَرِّنِينَ، وِلْدَانَ بَيْتِهِ، ثَلَاثَ مِئَةٍ وَثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ، وَتَبِعَهُمْ إِلَى دَانَ.

15 And separating his forces by night, he overcame them, putting them to flight and going after them as far as Hobah, which is on the north side of Damascus.

١٥ وَٱنْقَسَمَ عَلَيْهِمْ لَيْلًا هُوَ وَعَبِيدُهُ فَكَسَّرَهُمْ وَتَبِعَهُمْ إِلَى حُوبَةَ ٱلَّتِي عَنْ شِمَالِ دِمَشْقَ.

16 And he got back all the goods, and Lot, his brother's son, with his goods and the women and the people.

١٦ وَٱسْتَرْجَعَ كُلَّ ٱلْأَمْلَاكِ، وَٱسْتَرْجَعَ لُوطًا أَخَاهُ أَيْضًا وَأَمْلَاكَهُ، وَٱلنِّسَاءَ أَيْضًا وَٱلشَّعْبَ.

17 And when he was coming back after putting to flight Chedorlaomer and the other kings, he had a meeting with the king of Sodom in the valley of Shaveh, that is, the King's Valley.

١٧ فَخَرَجَ مَلِكُ سَدُومَ لِٱسْتِقْبَالِهِ، بَعْدَ رُجُوعِهِ مِنْ كَسْرَةِ كَدَرْلَعَوْمَرَ وَٱلْمُلُوكِ ٱلَّذِينَ مَعَهُ إِلَى عُمْقِ شَوَى، ٱلَّذِي هُوَ عُمْقُ ٱلْمَلِكِ.

18 And Melchizedek, king of Salem, the priest of the Most High God, took bread and wine,

١٨ وَمَلْكِي صَادِقُ، مَلِكُ شَالِيمَ، أَخْرَجَ خُبْزًا وَخَمْرًا. وَكَانَ كَاهِنًا لِلهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ.

19 And blessing him, said, May the blessing of the Most High God, maker of heaven and earth, be on Abram:

١٩ وَبَارَكَهُ وَقَالَ: «مُبَارَكٌ أَبْرَامُ مِنَ ٱللهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ مَالِكِ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ،

20 And let the Most High God be praised, who has given into your hands those who were against you. Then Abram gave him a tenth of all the goods he had taken.

٢٠ وَمُبَارَكٌ ٱللهُ ٱلْعَلِيُّ ٱلَّذِي أَسْلَمَ أَعْدَاءَكَ فِي يَدِكَ». فَأَعْطَاهُ عُشْرًا مِنْ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ.

21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the prisoners and take the goods for yourself.

٢١ وَقَالَ مَلِكُ سَدُومَ لِأَبْرَامَ: «أَعْطِنِي ٱلنُّفُوسَ، وَأَمَّا ٱلْأَمْلَاكَ فَخُذْهَا لِنَفْسِكَ».

22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have taken an oath to the Lord, the Most High God, maker of heaven and earth,

٢٢ فَقَالَ أَبْرَامُ لِمَلِكِ سَدُومَ: «رَفَعْتُ يَدِي إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ ٱلْإِلَهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ مَالِكِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ وَٱلْأَرْضِ،

23 That I will not take so much as a thread or the cord of a shoe of yours; so that you may not say, I have given wealth to Abram:

٢٣ لَا آخُذَنَّ لَا خَيْطًا وَلَا شِرَاكَ نَعْلٍ وَلَا مِنْ كُلِّ مَا هُوَ لَكَ، فَلَا تَقُولُ: أَنَا أَغْنَيْتُ أَبْرَامَ.

24 Give me nothing but the food which the fighting-men who went with me have had; but let Aner and Eshcol and Mamre have their part of the goods.

٢٤ لَيْسَ لِي غَيْرُ ٱلَّذِي أَكَلَهُ ٱلْغِلْمَانُ، وَأَمَّا نَصِيبُ ٱلرِّجَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ ذَهَبُوا مَعِي: عَانِرَ وَأَشْكُولَ وَمَمْرَا، فَهُمْ يَأْخُذُونَ نَصِيبَهُمْ».
