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 nations;
Factum est autem in illo tempore, ut Amraphel rex Sennaar, et Arioch rex Ponti, et Chodorlahomor rex Elamitarum, et Thadal rex Gentium
2 [That these] made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
inirent bellum contra Bara regem Sodomorum, et contra Bersa regem Gomorrhae, et contra Sennaab regem Adamae, et contra Semeber regem Seboim, contraque regem Balae, ipsa est Segor.
3 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
Omnes hi convenerunt in vallem Silvestrem, quae nunc est mare salis.
4 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
Duodecim enim annis servierunt Chodorlahomor, et tertiodecimo anno recesserunt ab eo.
5 And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that [were] with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emins in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
Igitur quartodecimo anno venit Chodorlahomor, et reges qui erant cum eo: percusseruntque Raphaim in Astaroth et Carnaim, et Zuzim cum eis, et Emim in Save Cariathaim,
6 And the Horites in their mount Seir, to El-paran, which [is] by the wilderness.
et Chorraeos in montibus Seir, usque ad Campestria Pharan, quae est in solitudine.
7 And they returned, and came to En-mishpat, which [is] Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.
Reversique sunt, et venerunt usque ad fontem Misphat, ipsa est Cades: et percusserunt omnem regionem Amalecitarum, et Amorrhaeum, qui habitabat in Asasonthamar.
8 And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, (the same [is] Zoar; ) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
Et egressi sunt rex Sodomorum, et rex Gomorrhae, rexque Adamae, et rex Seboim, necnon et rex Balae, quae est Segor: et direxerunt aciem contra eos in valle Silvestri:
9 With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.
scilicet adversus Chodorlahomor regem Elamitarum, et Thadal regem gentium, et Amraphel regem Sennaar, et Arioch regem Ponti: quattuor reges adversus quinque.
10 And the vale of Siddim [was full of] slime-pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there: and they that remained fled to the mountain.
Vallis autem Silvestris habebat puteos multos bituminis. Itaque rex Sodomorum, et rex Gomorrhae, terga verterunt, cecideruntque ibi: et qui remanserant, fugerunt ad montem.
11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.
Tulerunt autem omnem substantiam Sodomorum et Gomorrhae, et universa quae ad cibum pertinent, et abierunt:
12 And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
necnon et Lot et substantiam eius, filium fratris Abram, qui habitabat in Sodomis.
13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these [were] confederate with Abram.
Et ecce unus, qui evaserat, nunciavit Abram Hebraeo, qui habitabat in convalle Mambre Amorrhaei fratris Escol, et fratris Aner: hi enim pepigerant foedus cum Abram.
14 And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained [servants], born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued [them] to Dan.
Quod cum audisset Abram, captum videlicet Lot fratrem suum, numeravit expeditos vernaculos suos trecentos decem, et octo: et persecutus est eos usque Dan.
15 And he divided himself against them, he and his servants by night, and smote them, and pursued them to Hobah, which [is] on the left hand of Damascus.
Et divisis sociis, irruit super eos nocte: percussitque eos, et persecutus est eos usque Hoba, et Phoenicem, quae est ad laevam Damasci.
16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
Reduxitque omnem substantiam, et Lot fratrem suum cum substantia illius, mulieres quoque et populum.
17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that [were] with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which [is] the king's dale.
Egressus est autem rex Sodomorum in occursum eius postquam reversus est a caede Chodorlahomor, et regum qui cum eo erant in valle Save, quae est vallis regis.
18 And Melchisedek, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine: and he [was] the priest of the most high God.
At vero Melchisedech rex Salem, proferens panem et vinum, erat enim Sacerdos Dei altissimi,
19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be] Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
benedixit ei, et ait: Benedictus Abram Deo excelso, qui creavit caelum et terram:
20 And blessed be the most high God, who hath delivered thy enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
et benedictus Deus excelsus, quo protegente, hostes in manibus tuis sunt. Et dedit ei decimas ex omnibus.
21 And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
Dixit autem rex Sodomorum ad Abram: Da mihi animas, cetera tolle tibi.
22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted my hand to the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
Qui respondit ei: Levo manum meam ad Dominum Deum excelsum possessorem caeli et terrae,
23 That I will not [take] from a thread even to a shoe-latchet, and that I will not take any thing that [is] thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
quod a filo subtegminis usque ad corigiam caligae, non accipiam ex omnibus quae tua sunt, ne dicas: Ego ditavi Abram:
24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
exceptis his, quae comederunt iuvenes, et partibus virorum, qui venerunt mecum, Aner, Eschol, et Mambre: isti accipient partes suas.
