Genesis 14
1 And it cometh to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goyim,
Azɔ la, aʋa dzɔ le anyigba la dzi. Amrafel, Sinar fia, Ariok, Elasar fia, Kedolaoma, Elam fia kple Tidal, Goyim fia,
2 they have 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, which [is] Zoar.
ho aʋa ɖe Bera, Sodom fia, Birsa, Gomora fia, Sinab, Adma fia, Semeber, Zeboyim fia kple Bela fia (si woyɔna be Zoar la) ŋu.
3 All these have been joined together unto the valley of Siddim, which [is] the Salt Sea;
Fia siwo tso Sodom, Gomora, Adma, Seboyim kple Bela la na woƒe aʋakɔwo ƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Sidom balime si nye (Dzeƒu la ƒe balime.)
4 twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and the thirteenth year they rebelled.
Wonye Fia Kedolaoma teviwo ƒe wuieve sɔŋ, ke wotso ɖe fia sia ŋu le ƒe wuietɔ̃lia me.
5 And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings who [are] with him, and they smite the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
Le ƒe wuienelia me la, Kedolaoma kple fia siwo kpe ɖe eŋu la yi ɖasi Refaimtɔwo le Asterot, Karnaimtɔwo kple Zuzitɔwo le Ham, Emitɔwo le Save Kiriataim
6 and the Horites in their mount Seir, unto El-Paran, which [is] by the wilderness;
kple Horitɔwo le Seir ƒe tonyigba dzi heyi keke El Paran, afi si te ɖe gbegbe la ŋu.
7 and they turn back and come in unto En-Mishpat, which [is] Kadesh, and smite the whole field of the Amalekite, and also the Amorite who is dwelling in Hazezon-Tamar.
Wotrɔ azɔ yi En Misfat (afi si woyɔna egbegbe be Kades la), eye woɖu Amalekitɔwo kple Amoritɔwo, ame siwo nɔ Hazazon Tamar la dzi.
8 And the king of Sodom goeth out, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela, which [is] Zoar; and they set the battle in array with them in the valley of Siddim,
Tete fia siwo tso Sodom, Gomora, Adma, Zeboyim kple Bela (si nye Zoar) la yi ɖaƒu asaɖa anyi ɖe Sidim Balime,
9 with Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goyim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with the five.
ɖe Kedolaoma, Elam fia, Tidal, Goyim fia, Amrafel, Sinar fia kple Ariok, Elasar fia ŋu. Fia ene kpe aʋa kple fia atɔ̃.
10 And the valley of Siddim [is] full of bitumen-pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah flee, and fall there, and those left have fled to the mountain.
Ke aŋɔʋe geɖewo nɔ teƒe ma, eye esi Sodom kple Gomora fiawo si yina la, wo dometɔ aɖewo ge dze aŋɔʋeawo me. Ame mamlɛawo si yi toawo dzi.
11 And they take the whole substance of Sodom and Gomorrah, and the whole of their food, and go away;
Dziɖulawo ha Sodom kple Gomora ƒe kesinɔnuwo kple nuɖuɖuwo katã heɖo ta aƒe kpli wo.
12 and they take Lot, Abram's brother's son (seeing he is dwelling in Sodom), and his substance, and go away.
Wolé Lot, ame si nye Abram ƒe tɔgãyɔvi si nɔ Sodom la, eye wokplɔe dzoe kple eƒe kesinɔnuwo katã.
13 And one who is escaping cometh and declareth to Abram the Hebrew, and he is dwelling among the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner, and they [are] Abram's allies.
Ame siwo si la dometɔ ɖeka va ka nya la ta na Abram, Hebritɔ la, esime wònɔ asaɖa me le Mamre si nye Amoritɔ la ƒe ati gãwo te. Mamre nye Eskol kple Aner, ame siwo nɔ Abram dzi la nɔvi.
14 And Abram heareth that his brother hath been taken captive, and he draweth out his trained domestics, three hundred and eighteen, and pursueth unto Dan.
Esi Abram se be woɖe aboyo Lot la, eƒo ƒu ame alafa etɔ̃ kple wuienyi siwo nye aʋawɔlawo la tso eƒe aƒe me, eye wòkplɔ aʋakɔ la ɖo va se ɖe Dan.
15 And he divideth himself against them by night, he and his servants, and smiteth them, and pursueth them unto Hobah, which [is] at the left of Damascus;
Wodze aʋakɔ la dzi le zã ma me, eye wonya wo va se ɖe Hoba le Damasko ƒe anyiehe lɔƒo.
16 and he bringeth back the whole of the substance, and also Lot his brother and his substance hath he brought back, and also the women and the people.
Abram xɔ futɔwo ƒe kesinɔnuwo, Lot kple eƒe kesinɔnuwo hekpe ɖe Lot ƒe nyɔnuwo kple ame bubu siwo katã wolé le aʋa la me la ŋu le futɔwo si.
17 And the king of Sodom goeth out to meet him (after his turning back from the smiting of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings who [are] with him), unto the valley of Shaveh, which [is] the king's valley.
Esi Abram trɔ gbɔna tso aʋa si wòho ɖe Kedolaoma kple fia bubuawo ŋu le Save balime (si wogayɔna be Fia ƒe Balime) la, Sodom fia va kpee,
18 And Melchizedek king of Salem hath brought out bread and wine, and he [is] priest of God Most High;
eye Salem fia Melkizedek, ame si nye Mawu, Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la ƒe nunɔla la tsɔ abolo kple wain vɛ nɛ,
19 and he blesseth him, and saith, 'Blessed [is] Abram to God Most High, possessing heaven and earth;
eye wòyra Abram gblɔ be, “Mawu Dziƒoʋĩtɔ, dziƒo kple anyigba wɔla nayra Abram,
20 and blessed [is] God Most High, who hath delivered thine adversaries into thy hand;' and he giveth to him a tenth of all.
eye woakafu Mawu Dziƒoʋĩtɔ la, ame si tsɔ wò futɔwo de asi na wò la.” Tete Abraham tsɔ nuawo katã ƒe ewolia nɛ.
21 And the king of Sodom saith unto Abram, 'Give to me the persons, and the substance take to thyself,'
Sodom fia gblɔ na Abram be, “Ɖe asi le nye ame siwo nèlé la ko ŋu nam, eye nàtsɔ kesinɔnu siwo nèha tso nye du me la faa.”
22 and Abram saith unto the king of Sodom, 'I have lifted up my hand unto Jehovah, God Most High, possessing heaven and earth —
Abram ɖo eŋu nɛ be, “Mele adzɔgbe ɖem na Yehowa, Mawu Dziƒoʋĩtɔ, ame si wɔ dziƒo kple anyigba la
23 from a thread even unto a shoe-latchet I take not of anything which thou hast, that thou say not, I — I have made Abram rich;
be nyemaxɔ ɖetika ɖeka gɔ̃ hã le asiwò o, ne menye nenema o la, àva gblɔ be, ‘Abram zu kesinɔtɔ le nu si menae la ta.’
24 save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who have gone with me — Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre — they take their portion.'
Nu si maxɔ koe anye nu si ɖekakpui siawo ɖu. Ke tsɔ kesinɔnuawo ƒe akpa aɖe na Aner, Eskol kple Mamre, ame siwo kpe ɖe ŋunye le aʋa la wɔwɔ me.”
