Genesis 14
1 Now it happened in that time that Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Pontus, and Chedorlaomer, king of the Elamites, and Tidal, king of the Nations,
Li te rive nan jou Amraphel yo, wa Schinear a, ke Arjoc, wa Ellasar a, Kedorlaomer, wa Élam nan, avèk Tideal, wa Gojim nan,
2 went to war against Bera, king of Sodom, and against Birsha, king of Gomorrah, and against Shinab, king of Admah, and against Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and against the king of Bela, that is Zoar.
ke yo te vin fè lagè avèk Béra, wa Sodome nan, e avèk Birscha, wa Gomorrhe a, Schineab, wa Adma a, ak Schémbeébern wa Tseboïm nan, avèk wa a Béla a, ki se Tsoar.
3 All these came together in the wooded valley, which is now the Sea of Salt.
Tout sila yo te vini nan yon alyans nan vale Siddim nan (sa vle di Lanmè Sèl la).
4 For they had served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they withdrew from him.
Pandan douz ane yo te sèvi Kedorlaomer, men nan trèzyèm ane a, yo te revòlte.
5 Therefore, in the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer arrived, and the kings who were with him. And they struck the Rephaim at Ashteroth of the two horns, and the Zuzim with them, and the Emim at Shaveh-Kiriathaim.
Nan katòzyèm ane a, Kedorlaomer ak wa ki te avè l yo, te vin bat Rephaïm nan Ashterothkarnaim, Zuzim lan nan Ham, avèk Émim nan Schavé-Kirjathaïm.
6 and the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Paran, which is in the wilderness.
Avèk Oryen yo nan mòn pa yo nan Séir jiska distans rive nan Al-Paran, ki touprè dezè a.
7 And they returned and arrived at the fountain of Mishpat, which is Kadesh. And they struck the entire region of the Amalekites, and the Amorites who dwelt in Hazazontamar.
Epi yo vin retounen rive nan En-Mischpath, (ki se Kadès), e yo te bat Amalesit yo nan tout peyi yo, e osi Amoreyen ki te rete Hatsatson-Thamar yo.
8 And the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and indeed the king of Bela, which is Zoar, went forth. And they directed their point against them in the wooded valley,
Epi wa Sodome nan avèk wa Gomorrhe a avèk wa Adma ak wa Tseboïm nan, e wa Béla a, (ki se Tsoar); te vin parèt. Yo ranje yo pou fè batay kont yo nan vale Siddim nan,
9 namely, against Chedorlaomer, king of the Elamites, and Tidal, king of the Nations, and Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Pontus: four kings against five.
kont Kedorlaomer wa Élam nan, Tideal, wa Gojim nan, Amraphel, wa Schinear nan, ak Arjoc, wa Ellasar a; kat wa kont senk.
10 Now the wooded valley had many pits of bitumen. And so the king of Sodom and the king of Gomorrah turned back and they fell there. And those who remained, fled to the mountain.
Alò, vale Siddim nan te ranpli avèk fon azfòt yo, epi wa Sodome avèk Gomorrhe yo te sove ale, e kèk tonbe la. Men sila ki te chape yo te sove ale, rive nan tèt mòn yo.
11 Then they took all the substance of the Sodomites and the Gomorrhites, and all that pertained to food, and they went away,
Yo te pran tout byen Sodome avèk Gomorrhe yo avèk tout manje yo te genyen, e yo te pati.
12 along with both Lot, the son of Abram’s brother, who lived in Sodom, and his substance.
Anplis, yo te pran Lot, neve a Abram nan avèk tout byen li, e yo te pati, paske li t ap viv Sodome.
13 And behold, one who had escaped reported it to Abram the Hebrew, who lived in the steep valley of Mamre the Amorite, who was the brother of Eshcol, and the brother of Aner. For these had formed an agreement with Abram.
Alò, yon moun ki te sove ale te vin di Abram, Ebre a, tout sa. Alò, li t ap viv bò kote chenn Mamré yo, Amoreyen sila a, frè Eschcol e frè Aner, ki te fè yon alyans avèk Abram.
14 When Abram had heard this, namely, that his brother Lot had been taken captive, he numbered three hundred and eighteen of his own armed men and he went in pursuit all the way to Dan.
Lè Abram te tande ke moun fanmi li te pran an kaptivite, li te Mennen dèzòm ki te enstwi, twa-san-diz-uit òm ki te elve nan kay li pou te pouswiv yo jis rive nan Dan.
15 And dividing his company, he rushed upon them in the night. And he struck them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
Li te divize ekip li yo kont yo nan lannwit. Epi li avèk sèvitè li yo te bat yo, e yo te kouri dèyè yo jis rive Choba, ki nan nò Damas la.
16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, likewise the women and the people.
Li te mennen fè retounen tout byen yo. Anplis, li te mennen tounen moun fanmi li an, Lot, avèk byen pa l, fanm, avèk lòt moun yo.
17 Then the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter at Chedorlaomer, and the kings who were with him at the valley of Shaveh, which is the valley of the king.
Apre Abram te sòti nan masak Kédorlaomer ak wa ki te avè l yo, wa Sodome nan te sòti pou rankontre l nan vale Schavé a, (sa vle di Vale a Wa a).
18 Then in truth, Melchizedek, the king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine, for he was a priest of the Most High God;
Konsa, Melchisédek, wa Salèm nan te mennen pote pen avèk diven. Alò li menm se te yon prèt a Bondye Pi Wo a.
19 he blessed him, and he said: “Blessed be Abram by the Most High God, who created heaven and earth.
Li te beni li, e te di: “Beni, se Abram a Bondye Pi Wo a, Mèt Syèl la ak tè a.
20 And blessed be the Most High God, through whose protection the enemies are in your hands.” And he gave him tithes from everything.
Beniswa Bondye Pi Wo a, ki te lage lènmi yo nan men ou.” Abram te bay li yon dim de tout bagay.
21 Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me these souls, and take the rest for yourself.”
Wa Sodome nan te di Abram: “Ban mwen moun yo, e ou mèt pran byen yo pou ou menm.”
22 And he responded to him: “I lift up my hand to the Lord God, the Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,
Abram te di a Wa Sodome nan: “Mwen te sèmante a Senyè Bondye Pi Wo a, Mèt sou syèl la avèk tè a,
23 that from one thread within a blanket, even to a single shoelace, I will not take anything from that which is yours, lest you say, ‘I have enriched Abram,’
ke mwen p ap pran menm yon fisèl oswa yon sandal, ni yon las, ni anyen ki pou ou, akoz laperèz ke ou ta di ‘se ou ki fè Abram vin rich’.
24 except that which the young men have eaten, and the shares for the men who came with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. These will take their shares.”
Mwen p ap pran anyen sof ke sa ke jennonm yo te manje, ak pòsyon pou mesye ki te ale avè m yo, Aner, Eschcol, avèk Mamré; kite yo pran pòsyon pa yo.”
