< 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.
Tokosra akosr, Amraphel lun Babylonia, Arioch lun Ellasar, Chedorlaomer lun Elam, ac Tidal lun Goiim,
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).
elos som in mweun lain tokosra limekosr saya: Bera lun Sodom, Birsha lun Gomorrah, Shinab lun Admah, Shemeber lun Zeboiim, ac tokosra lun Bela (ku Zoar).
3 All these in the second group joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (the Dead Sea valley).
Tokosra limekosr inge toeni orala u se, ac fahsreni nu Infalfal Siddim, su pa Meoa Misa in pacl inge.
4 They had been under the rule of Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled against him.
Elos tuh muta ye nununku lal Chedorlaomer ke yac singoul luo, tusruktu in yac se aksingoul tolu elos tuyak lainul.
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,
In yac aksingoul akosr Chedorlaomer ac tokosra tolu wial tuku wi un mwet mweun lalos ac kutangla mwet Rephaim in acn Ashtaroth Karnaim, oayapa mwet Zuzim in acn Ham, mwet Emim in acn tupasrpasr lun Kiriathaim,
6 and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert.
ac mwet Hor infulan eol Edom, ukwalos na nwe Elparan sisken acn mwesis.
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.
Na elos forla ac foloko nu Kadesh (in pacl so pangpang Enmishpat.) Elos eisla acn nukewa lun mwet Amalek, ac kutangla mwet Amor su muta Hazazon Tamar.
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.
Na Tokosra lun Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim, ac Bela elos mokuiyak wi un mwet mweun lalos in mweun Infalfal Siddim
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.
lain tokosra lun Elam, Goiim, Babylonia, ac Ellasar — tokosra limekosr lain tokosra akosr.
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.
Infalfal sac sessesla ke lufin tar, ac ke tokosra lun Sodom ac Gomorrah srike in kaingla liki mweun uh, elos putatyang nu in luf inge, a tokosra tolu saya uh kaingla nu fineol ah.
11 The invaders took from Sodom and Gomorrah all their possessions and food and left.
Tokosra akosr ah usla ma nukewa in acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, wi mwe mongo we, ac som.
12 They also captured Lot, Abram's nephew, and his possessions, because he was living in Sodom.
Lot, wen nutin ma lel Abram, el muta Sodom in pacl sac, ac elos usalla ac ma lal nukewa.
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.
Tusruktu oasr mwet se kaingla ac fahkak ma sikyak inge nukewa nu sel Abram, mwet Hebrew se su muta fototo nu ke sak oal sunal Mamre, mwet Amor. Mamre ac tamulel luo wial, Eshcol ac Aner, elos welul Abram lac ke pacl in mweun.
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.
Ke Abram el lohng lah sruhu wen nutin mwet lel, el pangoneni mukul nukewa ke nien aktuktuk lal su etu mweun — mukul tolfoko singoul oalkosr nufon — ac ukwe na tokosra akosr ah nwe Dan.
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.
Ke elos sun acn we, el kitalik mwet lal ah nu ke u, ac sroang nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke fong, ac kutangulosla. El ukwalos na nwe Hobah, epang in Damascus,
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.
ac folokonma ma wap nukewa ma elos tuh usla. El oayapa folokunulma Lot, wen nutin ma lel, wi ma lal nukewa, weang mutan ac mwet kapir pac saya.
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).
Ke Abram el foloko tukun el kutangulla Chedorlaomer ac tokosra ma welul, tokosra lun acn Sodom el illa in sonol Infalfal Shaveh (pangpang pac Infalfal lun Tokosra).
18 Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was a priest of the Most High God.
Ac Melchizedek, su tokosra lun acn Salem ac el oayapa sie mwet tol lun God Fulatlana, el use bread ac wain nu yorol Abram,
19 He blessed Abram, telling him, “May Abram be blessed by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth.
ac akinsewowoyal ac fahk, “Lela God Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu, in akinsewowoyal Abram!
20 May the Most High God be praised, who handed your enemies over to you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything.
Lela in kaksakinyuk God Fulatlana, su asot kutangla nu sum fin mwet lokoalok lom!” Ac Abram el sang nu sel Melchizedek sie tafu singoul in ma wap nukewa ma el folokonma.
21 The king of Sodom told Abram, “Let me have the people back, and you can keep everything else for yourself.”
Tokosra lun Sodom el fahk nu sel Abram, “Sruokya ma wap an lom, tusruktu folokonma nufon mwet luk an.”
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,
Na Abram el fahk, “Nga orala fulahk luk ye mutun LEUM GOD, El su Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu,
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!’
lah nga ac fah tiana sruokya kutena ma lom, finne turet soko ku soko mwe lohl fahluk, kom in mau tia ku in fahk mu, ‘Nga pa oru Abram el kasrup.’
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.”
Nga fah tiana eis kutena ma, sayen ma mwet luk inge orekmakin tari uh. Tusruktu lela elos su wiyu inge (Aner, Eshcol, ac Mamre) in eis ip lalos.”
