Genesis 14
1 And it came to pass, in the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar, Arioch, king of Ellasar, —Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goim,
Mu biro bya Amulafeeri kabaka wa Sinaali, ne Aliyooki kabaka wa Erasali, ne Kedolawomeeri kabaka wa Eramu ne Tidali kabaka wa Goyiyimu,
2 that they made war, with Bera, king of Sodom, and with Birsha, king of Gomorrah, —Shinab, king of Admah, and Shemeber, king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela—the same, is Zoar.
bakabaka bano ne balumba ne balwana ne Bbeera kabaka wa Sodomu, ne Bbiruusa kabaka wa Ggomola, ne Sinaabu kabaka wa Aduma, ne Semebeeri kabaka wa Zeboyiyimu ne kabaka wa Bera, ye Zowaali.
3 All these, joined together in the valley of the open fields, the same, is the Salt Sea.
Bano bonna abooluvannyuma ne beegatta wamu mu kiwonvu kya Sidimu (y’Ennyanja ey’Omunnyo).
4 Twelve years, had they served Chedorlaomer, —but in the thirteenth year had they rebelled;
Baamala emyaka kkumi n’ebiri nga baweereza Kedolawomeeri kabaka we Eramu, naye mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’esatu ne bamujeemera.
5 and in the fourteenth year, had Chedorlaomer come in and the kings who were with him, so they smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, —and the Emim, in Shaveh-kiriathaim;
Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ena Kedolawomeeri ne bakabaka abaali naye ne balumba Abaleefa mu Asuterosikalumayimu ne babawangula, n’Abazuuzi mu Kaamu, n’Abemi mu Savekiriyasayimu,
6 and the Horites in their Mount Seir, —as far as El-paran, which is by the desert.
n’Abakooli mu nsi ey’ensozi eya Seyiri n’okutuukira ddala Erupalaani okumpi n’eddungu.
7 So they returned and came in unto En-mishpat, the same, is Kadish, and smote all the field of the Amalekites, —and the Amorites also that dwelt in Hazazon-tamar,
Ate ne bakyuka ne bajja e Nuumisupaati, ye Kadesi ne bawangula ensi yonna ey’Abamaleki n’Abamoli abaabeeranga mu Kazazonutamali.
8 Thus then went forth the King of Sodom and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela the same, is Zoar—and set themselves in array against them for battle, in the valley of the open fields:
Awo kabaka wa Sodomu ne kabaka wa Ggomola, ne kabaka wa Aduma, ne kabaka wa Zeboyiyimu ne kabaka wa Bera, ye Zowaali ne beegatta mu lutalo mu kiwonvu ky’e Sidimu
9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, —four kings against five.
okulwanyisa Kedolawomeeri kabaka wa Eramu, ne Tidali kabaka wa Goyiyimu ne Amulafeeri kabaka wa Sinaali awamu ne Aliyooki kabaka wa Erasali, bakabaka bana nga balwanyisa bakabaka bataano.
10 Now, the valley of the open fields, had many pits of bitumen, so the king of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there, —while, they who remained, towards a mountain, fled.
Ekiwonvu ky’e Sidimu kyali kijjudde ebinnya ebirimu kolaasi; bakabaka b’e Sodomu ne Ggomola bwe baddukanga ng’abamu babigwamu, n’abalala ne baddukira ku nsozi.
11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went their way.
Awo bakabaka abana ne batwala ebintu byonna ebyali mu Sodomu ne Ggomola, n’emmere yaabwe yonna gye baalina ne bagenda.
12 And they took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son with his goods, and went their way, —he, being a dweller in Sodom.
Era ne batwala ne Lutti, mutabani wa muganda wa Ibulaamu eyali mu Sodomu, n’ebintu bye ne bagenda nabyo kubanga naye yali abeera mu Sodomu.
13 Then came in a fugitive, and told Abram the Hebrew, —he, having his dwelling among the oaks of Mamre the Amorite brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner, they, also having a covenant with Abram.
Awo Omwamoli omu eyali abadduseeko n’ajja n’ategeeza Ibulaamu Omwebbulaniya, eyali abeera okumpi n’emivule gya Mamule, muganda wa Esukoli ne Aneri abaalina endagaano ne Ibulaamu.
14 So Abram, hearing that his brother had been taken captive, drew forth his trained men born in his house three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Dan.
Ibulaamu bwe yawulira nti muganda we atwalibbwa nga munyage, n’akulembera basajja be abatendeke, abazaalirwa mu nnyumba ye, ebikumi bisatu mu kkumi na munaana, ne bawondera abaatwala Lutti okutuuka e Ddaani.
15 And he divided himself against them by night, he, and his servants, and smote them, —and pursued them as far as Hobah, which was on the left of Damascus.
Mu kiro n’ayawulamu eggye lye, n’abalumba, ye n’abaddu be ne bagoberera abantu bali okutuuka e Kkoba, ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono obwa Damasiko.
16 So he brought back all the goods, —yea Lot also his brother with his goods, did he bring back, and the women also, and the people.
Awo n’akomyawo ebintu byonna, era n’akomyawo ne muganda we Lutti n’ebintu bye n’abakazi n’abantu bonna.
17 Then came forth the king of Sodom to meet him, after his return from the smiting of Chedorlaomer, and the kings who were with him, —into the vale of Shaveh the same, was the vale of the king.
Ibulaamu bwe yakomawo ng’amaze okuwangula Kedolawomeeri ne bakabaka abaali naye, kabaka wa Sodomu n’afuluma okumusisinkana mu kiwonvu ky’e Save (kye kiwonvu kya kabaka).
18 Now Melchizedek king of Salem, had brought forth bread and wine, —he, being priest of GOD Most High.
Ne Merukizeddeeki kabaka wa Ssaalemi eyali kabona wa Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo n’aleeta omugaati n’envinnyo.
19 So he blessed him and said, —Blessed be Abram of GOD Most High, possessor of [the] heavens and earth;
N’asabira Ibulaamu omukisa ng’agamba nti, “Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo Omutonzi w’eggulu n’ensi awe Ibulaamu omukisa.
20 And blessed be GOD Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. So he gave unto him a tenth of all.
Era Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo agulumizibwe agabudde abalabe bo mu mikono gyo.” Awo Ibulaamu n’amuwa ekitundu eky’ekkumi ekya buli kimu.
21 Then said the king of Sodom unto Abram, —Give unto me the persons, but the goods, take thou for thyself.
Ne kabaka wa Sodomu n’agamba Ibulaamu nti, “Mpa abantu, gwe otwale ebintu.”
22 And Abram said unto the king of Sodom, —I have lifted up my hand unto Yahweh GOD Most High, possessor of [the] heavens and earth:
Naye Ibulaamu n’addamu kabaka wa Sodomu nti, “Ndayira Mukama Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo, Omutonzi w’eggulu n’ensi,
23 That not from a thread even unto a sandal-thong, —will I take, anything, that is thine, —Lest thou shouldst say, I, enriched Abram!
sijja kutwala wadde akawuzi oba akakoba akasiba engatto, oba ekintu kyonna ekikyo, oleme okugamba nti, ‘Ngaggawazza Ibulaamu.’
24 Save only what the young men have eaten, and the share of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, they may take their share.
Sijja kubaako kye ntwala; okuggyako ebyo abavubuka bye balidde, n’omugabo gw’abasajja abaagenda nange; leka Aneri ne Esukoli ne Mamule bo batwale omugabo gwabwe.”
