Genesis 14
1 At that time Amraphel was king of Shinar, and he allied himself with Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim.
Hatnae tueng dawk Shinar siangpahrang Amraphel, Ellasar siangpahrang Ariyawk, Elam siangpahrang Kedorlaomer hoi Goiim siangpahrang Tidal ti naw hoi,
2 They attacked Bera, king of Sodom, Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (otherwise known as Zoar).
Sodom siangpahrang Bera, Gomorrah siangpahrang Birsha, Admah siangpahrang Shinab, Zebiim siangpahrang Shemeber, Zoar siangpahrang Bela tinaw taran a kâtuk awh.
3 All these in the second group joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (the Dead Sea valley).
Ahnimanaw pueng teh palawi tui tie Siddim yawn dawk a kamkhueng awh.
4 They had been under the rule of Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled against him.
Kum 12 touh thung Kedorlaomer koe san lah ao awh teh, kum 13 nae dawk teh a tuk awh.
5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer invaded, along with the kings in his alliance. They defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim,
Kum 14 nae dawk teh Kedorlaomer ni ama koe lah kambawng e siangpahrangnaw hoi a tho awh teh, Ashterothkarnaim kho dawk Rephaim taminaw, Ham kho dawk Zuzim taminaw, Kiriathaim koe Emim taminaw,
6 and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert.
Seir mon dawk Khori taminaw hoi thingyei yawn teng kaawm e Elparan kho totouh a thei awh.
7 Then they swung back through and attacked En-mishpat (otherwise known as Kadesh) and conquered the whole country belonging to the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.
Hahoi bout a ban awh teh Kadesh ram Enmishpat kho dawk a pha awh navah, Amalek ram dawk kaawm e tami pueng, Hazezontamar kho dawk kaawm e Amor taminaw hai koung a thei awh.
8 Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (otherwise known as Zoar) marched out and prepared for battle in the Valley of Siddim.
Hathnukkhu Sodom siangpahrang, Gomorrah siangpahrang, Admah siangpahrang, Zeboiim siangpahrang hoi Bela siangpahrang, tinaw a cei awh teh, Siddim yawn dawk a kâtuk awh hanelah a kamkhueng awh.
9 They fought Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, Tidal, king of Goiim, Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Ellasar—four kings on one side against five on the other.
Hottelah, Elam siangpahrang Kedorlaomer, Goiim siangpahrang Tidal, Shinar siangpahrang Amraphel, Ellasar siangpahrang Aryawk, ahnimanaw pali touh ni siangpahrang panga touh a tuk awh.
10 There were many tar pits in the Valley of Siddim, and as the defeated kings of Sodom and Gomorrah ran away, some of their men fell into them while the rest ran to the hills.
Siddim yawn teh tuithaw dui ka cawt e tangkawmnaw ao dawkvah, Sodom hoi Gomorrah siangpahrang teh a yawng roi, a tangawn te tangkom dawk a bo teh alouknaw teh mon lah a yawng.
11 The invaders took from Sodom and Gomorrah all their possessions and food and left.
Hatdawkvah, Sodom hoi Gomorrah kho dawk kaawm e hnopai pueng, canei kawi kaawm pueng a la awh teh a ban awh.
12 They also captured Lot, Abram's nephew, and his possessions, because he was living in Sodom.
Sodom kho dawk kaawm e Abram e a hmau e capa Lot hoi a hnopai pueng hai koung a la awh.
13 But one of those captured escaped and went and told Abram the Hebrew what had happened. Abram was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, whose brothers were Eshcol and Aner. All of them were Abram's allies.
Hote runae dawk hoi ka hlout e tami buet touh a tho teh, Hebru tami Abram koe a dei pouh. Ahni teh Amor tami Mamre e kathenkungnaw teng ao. Mamre teh Eskol hoi Aner e hmau doeh. Ahnimanaw teh Abram hoi cungtalah kambawng awh e doeh.
14 When Abram found out that his nephew had been captured, he called together 318 fighting men who had been born in his household and chased after them all the way to Dan.
Abram ni a hmau e capa hah san hanelah a man awh toe tie a thai navah, ama im ka khe ni teh a cangkhai e tami 318 touh a hrawi teh, Dan kho totouh a pâlei.
15 There he divided his men into groups and attacked at night, defeating the enemy and chasing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.
Khohmo navah, a hrawi e taminaw a kapek teh a tuk sak Damaskas atunglah kaawm e Hobah kho totouh a pâlei.
16 Abram recovered all that had been taken, including Lot and his possessions, and also brought back the women and others who had been captured.
A ceikhai e hnopai pueng, a hmau e capa Lot hoi a hnopai pueng napuinaw hoi a taminaw bout a bankhai.
17 When Abram returned after defeating Chedorlaomer and his allies, the king of Sodom came out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (or Valley of the King).
Khedorlaomer hoi ama koe kaawm e siangpahrangnaw koung a thei hnukkhu a ban navah, Sodom siangpahrang teh Shaveh yawn dawk Abram dawn hanelah a tho. (Shaveh yawn teh siangpahrang yawn doeh).
18 Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was a priest of the Most High God.
Salem siangpahrang Melkhizedek ni vaiyei hoi misurtui a sin. (Ahni teh ka rasang poung e Cathut e vaihma doeh).
19 He blessed Abram, telling him, “May Abram be blessed by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth.
Hahoi, Abram yawhawinae a poe teh, kalvan hoi talai katawnkung ka rasang poung e Abram Cathut teh yawhawinae awm seh.
20 May the Most High God be praised, who handed your enemies over to you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything.
Na tarannaw na kut dawk na kapoekung ka rasang poung e Cathut teh yawhawinae awm seh telah ati. Abram ni hai hnopai a tawn e pueng dawk hoi pung hra pung touh a poe.
21 The king of Sodom told Abram, “Let me have the people back, and you can keep everything else for yourself.”
Sodom siangpahrang ni Abram koevah taminaw teh kai na poe, hatei hnopainaw teh lat yawkaw telah atipouh.
22 But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I raise my hand, making a solemn promise to the Lord, the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth,
Hatei Abram ni Sodom siangpahrang koe ralui buet touh hoi khokkhawm rui buet touh boehai nang koe ka lat mahoeh,
23 that I refuse to take anything belonging to you, not a single thread or a sandal strap. Otherwise you might claim, ‘It was me who made Abram rich!’
telah kalvan hoi talai katawnkung Jehovah, ka rasang poung e Cathut koe ka kut ka dâw toe. Telah hoehpawiteh Abram teh kai ni ka bawi sak e doeh na tet payon vaih.
24 I won't take anything except what my men have eaten, and the share for those who accompanied me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them have their share.”
Thoundounnaw ni a canei e hoi ka hrawi e ka taminaw ni a coe hane hloilah teh banghai ka lat mahoeh. Aner, Eshkol hoi Mamre ni a coe awh e teh ama ni lat awh naseh, telah atipouh.
