< 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.
Bara sana keessa Amraafel mootiin Shineʼaar, Ariyook mootiin Elaasaar, Kedoorlaaʼomer mootiin Eelaamii fi Tidiʼaal mootiin Sabootaa kaʼanii,
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).
Beraa mooticha Sodoom, Birishaa mooticha Gomoraa, Shinaab mooticha Adimaa, Shemeeber mooticha Zebooʼiimii fi mooticha Belaa ishee Zoʼaar jedhamtu sanaa loluu dhaqan.
3 All these in the second group joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (the Dead Sea valley).
Mootonni shanan kunneen hundi sulula Siidiim isa Galaana Soogiddaa jedhamu keessatti wal gaʼanii humna tokkummaa uummatan.
4 They had been under the rule of Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled against him.
Isaanis waggaa kudha shan Kedoorlaaʼomer jalatti bulan; waggaa kudha sadaffaatti garuu ni fincilan.
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,
Waggaa kudha afuraffaatti Kedoorlaaʼomerii fi mootonni isa wajjin turan baʼanii warra Refaayiim Ashteroot Qaarnaayimiitti, warra Zuuziim Haamitti, warra Eemiim Shaawii Kiriyaataayimiitti,
6 and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert.
warra Hoori immoo lafa gaara Seeʼiiriitii jalqabanii hamma Eel Phaaraan kan gammoojjiitti dhiʼoo jiru sanaatti moʼatan.
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.
Ergasii of irra deebiʼanii Een Mishiphaati jechuunis Qaadesh dhaqanii biyya warra Amaaleq hundaa fi warra Amoor kanneen Hazezoon Taamaar keessa jiraatan humnaan qabatan.
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.
Mootichi Sodoom, mootichi Gomoraa, mootichi Adimaa, mootichi Zebooʼiimii fi mootichi Belaa jechuunis Zoʼaar baʼanii Sulula Siidiim keessatti loluuf hiriiran.
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.
Isaanis Kedoorlaaʼomer mootii Eelaam, Tidiʼaal mootii Sabootaa, Amraafel mootii Shineʼaariitii fi Ariyook mootii Elaasaar lolan; mootonni afran kunneen mootota shananiin morman.
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.
Sululli Siidiim boolla leeleetiin guutamee ture; mootonni Sodoomii fi mootonni Gomoraas baqatanii namoonni tokko tokko boolla sana keessa buʼan; warri hafan immoo gara gaarraniitti baqatan.
11 The invaders took from Sodom and Gomorrah all their possessions and food and left.
Mootonni afran sun miʼaa fi nyaata warra Sodoomii fi Gomoraa hunda saamanii sokkan.
12 They also captured Lot, Abram's nephew, and his possessions, because he was living in Sodom.
Waan Loox ilmi obboleessa Abraam Sodoom keessa jiraachaa tureef mootonni sun isa illee qabeenyuma isaa wajjin boojiʼanii deeman.
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.
Namichi baqatee baʼe tokko dhufee oduu kana Abraam Ibrichatti hime. Abraamis qilxuuwwan Mamree kan namicha Amoorii sana bira jiraachaa ture; Mamreen kun obboleessa Eshkoolii fi Aaneer ture; isaan Abraam wajjin kakuu galanii turan.
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.
Abraam akka firri isaa boojiʼame dhageenyaan namoota mana isaatti dhalatanii leenjifaman 318 walitti waammatee hidhachiisee hamma Daaniitti faana buʼe.
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.
Abraamis isaan loluuf jedhee halkaniin namoota isaa gargari qoode; hamma Hoobaa ishee kaaba Damaasqootti argamtu sanaattis faana buʼee isaan dhaʼe.
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.
Innis miʼa hunda deebifate; fira ofii isaa Looxii fi qabeenya isaa, dubartootaa fi namoota kaanis deebifate.
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).
Abraam Kedoorlaaʼomeri fi mootota isa wajjin turan moʼatee deebinaan mootiin Sodoom Sulula Shaawii kan Sulula Mootii jedhamu keessatti isa simachuu baʼe.
18 Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was a priest of the Most High God.
Malkiiseedeq mootiin Saaleemis buddeenaa fi daadhii wayinii fideef; innis luba Waaqayyo Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii ture;
19 He blessed Abram, telling him, “May Abram be blessed by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth.
innis akkana jedhee Abraamin eebbise; “Abraam, Waaqayyo Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii, isa samii fi lafa uume sanaan haa eebbifamu.
20 May the Most High God be praised, who handed your enemies over to you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything.
Waaqayyo Waaqni Waan Hundaa Olii, inni diinota kee dabarsee harka keetti kenne sun haa eebbifamu.” Ergasii Abraam waan hunda irraa kudhan keessaa tokko isaaf kenne.
21 The king of Sodom told Abram, “Let me have the people back, and you can keep everything else for yourself.”
Mootiin Sodoomis Abraamiin, “Namoota naa kenniitii qabeenya immoo ofii keetii fudhadhu” jedhe.
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,
Abraam garuu mootii Sodoomiitiin akkana jedhe; “Ani harka koo gara Waaqayyo, Waaqa Waan Hundaa Olii, Uumaa samiitii fi lafaatti ol fudhadhee kakadheen jira;
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!’
akka ati, ‘Anatu Abraamin sooromse’ hin jenneef ani waan kan kee taʼe keessaa tokko iyyuu, foʼaa yookaan teepha ittiin kophee hidhatan iyyuu hin fudhadhu.
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.”
Waan namoonni koo nyaatanii fi qooda namoota ana wajjin deemanii jechuunis qooda Aaneer, kan Eshkooliitii fi kan Mamree malee ani ofii koo homaa hin fudhadhu; isaan qooda isaanii haa fudhatan.”
