< 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.
A kad bješe Amarfal car Senarski, Arioh car Elasarski, Hodologomor car Elamski i Targal car Gojimski,
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).
Zavojštiše na Valu cara Sodomskoga, i na Varsu cara Gomorskoga, i na Senara cara Adamskoga, i na Simovora cara Sevojimskoga i na cara od Valake, koja je sada Sigor.
3 All these in the second group joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (the Dead Sea valley).
Svi se ovi skupiše u dolini Sidimskoj, koja je sada slano more.
4 They had been under the rule of Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled against him.
Dvanaest godina bjehu služili Hodologomoru, pa trinaeste godine odmetnuše se.
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,
A èetrnaeste godine doðe Hodologomor i carevi koji bijahu s njim, i pobiše Rafaje u Astarotu Karnajimskom i Zuzeje u Amu i Omeje u polju Kirijatajskom,
6 and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert.
I Horeje u planini njihovoj Siru do ravnice Faranske pokraj pustinje.
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.
Otuda vrativši se doðoše u En-Mispat, koji je sada Kadis, i isjekoše sve koji življahu u zemlji Amalièkoj, i Amoreje koji življahu u Asason-Tamaru.
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.
Tada izide car Sodomski i car Gomorski i car Adamski i car Sevojimski i car od Valake, koja je sada Sigor, izidoše na njih u dolinu Sidimsku,
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.
Na Hodologomora cara Elamskoga, i na Targala cara Gojimskoga, i na Amarfala cara Senarskoga, i na Arioha cara Elasarskoga, èetiri cara na pet.
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.
A u dolini Sidimskoj bijaše mnogo rupa iz kojih se vadila smola; i pobježe car Sodomski i car Gomorski, i ondje padoše, a što osta pobježe u planinu.
11 The invaders took from Sodom and Gomorrah all their possessions and food and left.
I uzeše sve blago u Sodomu i Gomoru i svu hranu njihovu, i otidoše.
12 They also captured Lot, Abram's nephew, and his possessions, because he was living in Sodom.
Uzeše i Lota, sinovca Avramova, i blago njegovo, i otidoše, jer življaše u Sodomu.
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.
A doðe jedan koji bješe utekao, te javi Avramu Jevrejinu, koji življaše u ravni Mamrija Amorejina, brata Esholu i brata Avnanu, koji bjehu u vjeri s Avramom.
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.
A kad Avram èu da mu se zarobio sinovac, naoruža sluge svoje, trista osamnaest, koji se rodiše u njegovoj kuæi, i poðe u potjeru do Dana.
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.
Ondje razredivši svoje udari na njih noæu sa slugama svojim, i razbi ih, i otjera ih do Hovala, koji je na lijevo od Damaska,
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.
I povrati sve blago; povrati i Lota sinovca svojega s blagom njegovijem, i žene i ljude.
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).
A car Sodomski izide mu na susret kad se vrati razbivši Hodologomora i careve što bijahu s njim, u dolinu Savinu, koje je sada dolina careva.
18 Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was a priest of the Most High God.
A Melhisedek car Salimski iznese hljeb i vino; a on bijaše sveštenik Boga višnjega.
19 He blessed Abram, telling him, “May Abram be blessed by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth.
I blagoslovi ga govoreæi: blagosloven da je Avram Bogu višnjemu, èije je nebo i zemlja!
20 May the Most High God be praised, who handed your enemies over to you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything.
I blagosloven da je Bog višnji, koji predade neprijatelje tvoje u ruke tvoje! I dade mu Avram desetak od svega.
21 The king of Sodom told Abram, “Let me have the people back, and you can keep everything else for yourself.”
A car Sodomski reèe Avramu: daj meni ljude, a blago uzmi sebi.
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,
A Avram reèe caru Sodomskom: dižem ruku svoju ka Gospodu Bogu višnjemu, èije je nebo i zemlja, zaklinjuæi se:
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!’
Ni konca ni remena od obuæe neæu uzeti od svega što je tvoje, da ne reèeš: ja sam obogatio Avrama;
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.”
Osim što su pojeli momci, i osim dijela ljudima koji su išli sa mnom, Esholu, Avnanu i Mamriju, oni neka uzmu svoj dio.
