< 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,
I KA manawa ia Amerapela ke alii o Sinara, o Arioka ke alii o Elasara, o Kedorelaomera ke alii o Elama, a o Tidala ke alii o Goima;
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.
Kaua mai la lakou me Bera ke alii o Sodoma, me Biresa ke alii o Gomora, me Sinaba ke alii o Adema, me Semebara ke alii o Zeboima, a me ke alii o Bela, oia hoi o Zoara.
3 All these came together in the wooded valley, which is now the Sea of Salt.
I hoakoakoaia keia poe a pau ma ke awawa o Sidima, kahi ia o ka moana paakai.
4 For they had served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they withdrew from him.
Hookauwa aku la lakou na Kedorelaomera i na makahiki he umikumamalua; a i ka umikumamakolu o ka makahiki, kipi ae la lakou.
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.
A i ka makahiki umikumamaha, hele mai la o Kedorelaomera, a me ia pu ua mau alii la, a hahau mai la i ka Repaima ma Aseterota Kanaima, me ka Zuzima ma Hama, a me ka Emima ma Sehave ma Kiriataima.
6 and the Chorreans in the mountains of Seir, even to the plains of Paran, which is in the wilderness.
A me ka Hora ma ko lakou mauna Seira, a hiki Elepazana ma ka waoakua.
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.
A hoi mai la lakou, a hiki mai la i Enemisepata, oia o Kadesa, a hahau aku ia i ko ka aina a pau o ka Amaleki, a me ka Amori i noho la ma Hazezona-tamara.
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,
Hele aku la ke alii o Sodoma me ke alii o Gomora, me ke alii o Adema, a me ke alii o Zeboima, a me ke alii o Bela, oia hoi o Zoara; a kaua aku la lakou me kela poe ma ke awawa o Sidima;
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.
Me Kedorelaomera ke alii o Elama, a me Tidala ke alii o Goima, a me Amerapela ke alii o Sinara, a me Arioka ke alii o Elasara; o na'lii eha me na'lii elima.
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.
He nui na lua bitumena ma ke awawa o Sidima; hee aku la na alii o Sodoma a me Gomora, a haule iho la ilaila; a holo aku la ka poe i koe ma ka mauna.
11 Then they took all the substance of the Sodomites and the Gomorrhites, and all that pertained to food, and they went away,
Lawe pio aku la lakou i ka waiwai a pau o Sodoma a o Gomora, a me ka lakou ai a pau, a hele aku la.
12 along with both Lot, the son of Abram’s brother, who lived in Sodom, and his substance.
Lawe aku la hoi lakou ia Lota, i noho ai ma Sodoma, o ke keiki a ko Aberama kaikuaana, a me kana waiwai, a hoi aku la.
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.
Hele mai la kekahi o ka poe i pakele, a hai mai la ia Aberama ka Hebera; no ka mea, i noho ai oia ma na laau oka no Mamere ka Amori, ka hoahanau o Esekola, a o Anera: a ua hoolauna pu lakou nei me Aberama.
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.
Lohe ae la o Aberama, ua lawe pio ia kona hoahanau, alakai aku la ia i kona poe kanaka i hoomakaukauia ka poe i hanau ma kona hale iho, akolu haneri a me kumamawalu, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Dana.
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.
Mahele iho la oia i kona poe e ku e ia lakou, oia a me kana poe kauwa i ka po, poipo aku la ia lakou, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Hoba, aia ma ka lima hema o Damaseko.
16 And he brought back all the substance, and Lot his brother, with his substance, likewise the women and the people.
Hoihoi mai la ia i ka waiwai a pau, a lawe mai la hoi oia i kona hoahanau ia Lota, a me kona waiwai, me na wahine hoi, a me na kanaka.
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.
Hele aku ke alii o Sodoma iwaho e halawai me Aberama, mahope o kona hoi hou ana mai mai ka luku ana ia Kedorelaomera a me na alii me ia, ma ke awawa o Save, oia ke awawa o ke alii.
18 Then in truth, Melchizedek, the king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine, for he was a priest of the Most High God;
A o Melekizedeka ke alii o Salema, lawe mai la ia i ka berena a me ka waina: oia ke kahuna o ke Akua kiekie loa.
19 he blessed him, and he said: “Blessed be Abram by the Most High God, who created heaven and earth.
Hoomaikai mai la oia ia ia, i mai la, E pomaikai no o Aberama i ke Akua kiekie loa, nona ka lani a me ka honua.
20 And blessed be the Most High God, through whose protection the enemies are in your hands.” And he gave him tithes from everything.
E hoomaikaiia hoi ke Akua kiekie loa, nana i hoolilo mai kou poe enemi iloko o kou lima. A haawi aku la ia nana i ka hapaumi o na mea a pau.
21 Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me these souls, and take the rest for yourself.”
I mai la ke alii o Sodoma ia Aberama, o ke kanaka ko'u, a e lawe oe i ka waiwai nou.
22 And he responded to him: “I lift up my hand to the Lord God, the Most High, the Possessor of heaven and earth,
I aku la o Aberama i ke alii o Sodoma, Ua hapai aku no au i ko'u lima ia Iehova, i ke Akua kiekie loa, i ka mea nona ka lani a me ka honua,
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,’
Aole au e lawe no'u i kekahi maawe, aole hoi kekahi mea iki o kau, o olelo ae oe, Ua waiwai o Aberama ia'u:
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.”
O ka mea wale no a ka poe kanaka opiopio i ai ai, a me ka puu waiwai pio a ka poe kanaka i hele pu ai me an, o Anera, o Esekola, a o Mamere; e lawe lakou i ko lakou puu.
