Kwa zaka khumi ndi ziwiri anali pansi pa ulamuliro wa Kedorilaomere, koma mʼchaka cha khumi ndi chitatu anamuwukira.
5 And in four-teen year he came Kedorlaomer and the kings who [were] with him and they defeated [the] Rephaites in Ashteroth Karnaim and the Zuzites in Ham and the Emites in Shaveh Kiriathaim.

11 And they took all [the] possession[s] of Sodom and Gomorrah and all food their and they went.

18 And Melchi-zedek [the] king of Salem he brought out bread and wine and he [was] a priest of God Most High.
Ndipo Melikizedeki mfumu ya ku Salemu anabweretsa buledi ndi vinyo. Iyeyu anali wansembe wa Mulungu Wammwambamwamba,
19 And he blessed him and he said [be] blessed Abram by God Most High [the] creator of heaven and earth.
ndipo anadalitsa Abramu nati, “Mulungu Wammwambamwamba, wolenga kumwamba ndi dziko lapansi, akudalitse iwe Abramu.
