< 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,
यो अम्रापेल, एल्लासारका राजा अर्योक र एलाममा राजा कदोर्लाओमेर र गोयीमका राजा तिदालको समयमा भएको थियो ।
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.
तिनीहरूले सदोमका राजा बेरा, गमोराका राजा बिर्शा, अद्‍माका राजा शिनाब, सबोयिमका राजा शेमेबेर र बेला (अर्थात् सोअरका) विरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
3 All these, joined together in the valley of the open fields, the same, is the Salt Sea.
यी पछिल्ला पाँच जना राजाहरू सिद्दीम अर्थात् मृत सागरको बेँसीमा भेला भए ।
4 Twelve years, had they served Chedorlaomer, —but in the thirteenth year had they rebelled;
तिनीहरूले बाह्र वर्षसम्म कदर्लाओमेरको सेवा गरे तर तेह्रौँ वर्षमा तिनीहरूले विद्रोह गरे ।
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;
अनि चौधौँ वर्षमा, कदोर्लाओमेर र तिनीसित भएका राजाहरू आए र अस्तेरोत-केर्णेममा रपाईहरूलाई, हाममा जूजीहरूलाई, शावेकिर्यातैममा एमीहरूलाई,
6 and the Horites in their Mount Seir, —as far as El-paran, which is by the desert.
र होरीहरूलाई सेइरको पहाडी देशमा मरुभूमि नजिक रहेको ‍एल-पारानसम्म आक्रमण गरे ।
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,
त्यपछि तिनीहरू फर्के र एन-मिशपातमा (अर्थात् कादेशमा) आए अनि अमालेकीहरूका सबै देशहरू र हासेसोन-तामारमा बस्‍ने एमोरीहरूलाई पराजीत गरे ।
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:
त्यसपछि सदोमका राजा, गमोराका राजा, अदमाका राजा, सबोयिमका राजा र बेला (अर्थात् सोअरका) राजा निस्के अनि सिद्दीमको बेँसीमा युद्धको निम्ति तयार भए ।
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.
एलामका राजा कदोर्लाओमेर, गोयीमका राजा तिदाल, शिनारका राजा अम्रापेल, एल्लासारका राजा अर्योक; पाँच राजाका विरिद्ध चार राजा ।
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.
सिद्दीमको बेँसी अलकत्राको धापले भरिएको थियो, र सदोम र गमोराका राजाहरू भागे, तिनीहरू त्यसमा खसे । बाँकी रहेकाहरू पहाडतिर भागे ।
11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went their way.
यसैले राजाहरू सदोम र गमोराका सबै मालसामानहरू, तिनीहरूका रासनहरू लगे र आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
12 And they took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son with his goods, and went their way, —he, being a dweller in Sodom.
जब तिनीहरू गए, तिनीहरूले अब्रामका भाइका छोरा लोतलाई पनि तिनका सबै मालसामानसँगै लगे, जो सदोममा बसोबास गरिरहेका थिए ।
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.
उम्केर आएका एक जानले हिब्रू अब्रामलाई भने । तिनी एश्कोल र अनेरका भाइ मम्रेका फलाँटका रूखहरू नजिक बसिरहेका थिए, तिनीहरू सबै अब्रामका मित्रहरू थिए ।
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.
जब अब्रामले तिनका नातेदारलाई शत्रुहरूले कब्जा गरेको कुरा सुने, तिनले आफ्‍ना घरमा नै जन्मेका तालिम प्राप्‍त ३१८ जना मानिसहरू लिएर तिनले तिनीहरूलाई दानसम्म नै खेदे ।
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.
तिनले आफ्‍ना मानिसहरूलाई राती तिनीहरू विरुद्ध समूह-समूहमा विभाजन गरे र तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे अनि तिनीहरूलाई होबासम्म खेदे, जुन दमस्कसको उत्तर पर्छ ।
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.
तिनले आफ्‍ना सबै सम्पत्तिहरू पनि फिर्ता ल्याए र तिनका नातेदार र तिनका मालसामानहरू साथै महिलाहरू र अन्य मानिसहरू पनि ल्याए ।
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.
अब्रामले कदोर्लाओमेर र तिनीसँग भएका राजाहरूलाई पराजित गरेर फर्केपछि, सदोमका राजा तिनलाई भेट्न शावेको (अर्थात् राजाको उपत्यका) उपत्यकामा गए ।
18 Now Melchizedek king of Salem, had brought forth bread and wine, —he, being priest of GOD Most High.
शालेमका राजा मल्कीसेदेकले रोटी र दाखमद्य लिएर आए । तिनी सर्वोच्‍चका पूजाहारी थिए ।
19 So he blessed him and said, —Blessed be Abram of GOD Most High, possessor of [the] heavens and earth;
तिनले उनलाई यसो भन्दै आशोष्‌ दिए, “स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी सृष्‍टि गर्नु हुने परमेश्‍वरले अब्रामलाई आशिष् दिनुभएको होस् ।
20 And blessed be GOD Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. So he gave unto him a tenth of all.
सर्वोच्‍च परमेश्‍वर धन्यको हौऊन्, जसले तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रा हातमा सुम्पनुभएको छ ।” तब अब्रामले तिनका सबै थोकको दशांश उनलाई दिए ।
21 Then said the king of Sodom unto Abram, —Give unto me the persons, but the goods, take thou for thyself.
सदोमका राजाले अब्रामलाई भने, “मानिसहरू मलाई देऊ र सबै मालसामानहरू आफैले लैजाऊ ।
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:
अब्रामले सदोमका राजालाई भने, “मैले सर्वोच्‍च परमेश्‍वर, स्वर्ग र पृथ्वीका सृष्‍टिकर्ता परमप्रभुमा शपथ खाएको छु,
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!
मैले तपाईंबाट एउटा धागोम जुत्ताको फित्ता वा कुनै पनि कुरा लिनेछैन, ताकि 'मैले अब्रामलाई धनी बनाएको छु' भनी तपाईंले कहिल्यै भन्‍न सक्‍नुहुनेछैन ।
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.
मैले जवान मानिसहरूले खाएका र मसँग गएका मानिसहरूका भाग बाहेक कुनै कुरा लिनेछैन । आनेर, एश्‍कोल र मम्रेले आफ्‍ना भाग लेऊन् ।
