1 Ihinda-inĩ rĩu, Amurafeli mũthamaki wa Shinaru, na Arioku mũthamaki wa Elasaru, na Kedorilaomeri mũthamaki wa Elamu, na Tidali mũthamaki wa Goimu,
And it came to pass in the reign of Amarphal king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, that Chodollogomor king of Elam, and Thargal king of nations,
2 nĩmathiire ita kũrũa na Bera mũthamaki wa Sodomu, na Birisha mũthamaki wa Gomora, na Shinabu mũthamaki wa Adima, na Shemeberi mũthamaki wa Zeboimu na mũthamaki wa Bela (na nokuo Zoari).
made war with Balla king of Sodom, and with Barsa king of Gomorrha, and with Sennaar, king of Adama, and with Symobor king of Seboim and the king of Balac, this is Segor.
3 Athamaki acio othe a gĩkundi gĩa keerĩ nĩmacookanĩrĩire hamwe Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Sidimu (na nokuo Iria rĩa Cumbĩ).
All these met with one consent at the salt valley; this is [now] the sea of salt.
4 Ihinda rĩa mĩaka ikũmi na ĩĩrĩ maatũire matungatagĩra Mũthamaki Kedorilaomeri, no mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ĩtatũ makĩregana na watho wake.
Twelve years they served Chodollogomor, and the thirteenth year they revolted.
5 Mwaka-inĩ wa ikũmi na ĩna-rĩ, Mũthamaki Kedorilaomeri na athamaki arĩa maarĩ hamwe nake magĩthiĩ makĩhoota Arefai kũu Ashiterothu-Karinaimu, na Azuzi kũu Hamu, na Aemi kũu Shave-Kiriathaimu,
And in the fourteenth year came Chodollogomor, and the kings with him, and cut to pieces the giants in Astaroth, and Carnain, and strong nations with them, and the Ommaeans in the city Save.
6 nao Ahori makĩmahootera bũrũri-inĩ wa irĩma wa Seiru, o nginya Eli-Parani gũkuhĩ na werũ.
And the Chorrhaeans in the mountains of Seir, to the turpentine tree of Pharan, which is in the desert.
7 Ningĩ athamaki acio makĩgarũrũka, magĩthiĩ Eni-Mishipatu (na nokuo Kadeshi), magĩtooria rũgongo ruothe rwa Amaleki, o hamwe na Aamori arĩa maatũũraga kũu Hazazoni-Tamaru.
And having turned back they came to the well of judgment; this is Cades, and they cut in pieces all the princes of Amalec, and the Amorites dwelling in Asasonthamar.
8 Ningĩ mũthamaki wa Sodomu, na mũthamaki wa Gomora, na mũthamaki wa Adima, na mũthamaki wa Zeboimu, na mũthamaki wa Bela (na nokuo Zoari) magĩthiĩ makĩhaarĩria ita rĩao rĩa mbaara o kũu Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Sidimu,
And the king of Sodom went out, and the king of Gomorrha, and king of Adama, and king of Seboim, and king of Balac, this is Segor, and they set themselves in array against them for war in the salt valley,
9 mahũũrane na Kedorilaomeri mũthamaki wa Elamu, na Tidali mũthamaki wa Goimu, na Amurafeli mũthamaki wa Shinaru, na Arioku mũthamaki wa Elasaru, athamaki acio ana mahũũrane na athamaki acio angĩ atano.
against Chodollogomor king of Elam, and Thargal king of nations, and Amarphal king of Sennaar, and Arioch king of Ellasar, the four kings against the five.
10 Na rĩrĩ, Gĩtuamba kĩu gĩa Sidimu kĩaiyũrĩte marima ma rami, na rĩrĩa athamaki a Sodomu na Gomora mooraga-rĩ, andũ amwe ao makĩgũa kuo nao arĩa angĩ makĩũrĩra irĩma-inĩ.
Now the salt valley [consists of] slime-pits. And the king of Sodom fled and the king of Gomorrha, and they fell in there: and they that were left fled to the mountain country.
11 Athamaki acio ana magĩtunyana indo ciothe cia Sodomu na Gomora o na irio ciakuo ciothe; magĩcooka magĩĩthiĩra.
And they took all the cavalry of Sodom and Gomorrha, and all their provisions, and departed.
12 Ningĩ magĩtaha Loti, mũriũ wa mũrũ wa nyina na Aburamu, na indo ciake, tondũ aatũũraga kũu Sodomu.
And they took also Lot the son of Abram's brother, and his baggage, and departed, for he lived in Sodom.
13 Na rĩrĩ, mũndũ ũmwe wahonokete gũtahwo-rĩ, agĩũka na akĩĩra Aburamu ũrĩa Mũhibirania ũhoro ũcio. Na rĩrĩ, Aburamu aatũũraga hakuhĩ na mĩtĩ ĩrĩa mĩnene ya mĩgandi ya Mamure ũrĩa Mũamori, mũrũ wa nyina na Eshikoli na Aneri, na othe maarĩ rũmwe na Aburamu.
And one of them that had been rescued came and told Abram the Hebrew; and he lived by the oak of Mamre the Amorite the brother of Eschol, and the brother of Aunan, who were confederates with Abram.
14 Rĩrĩa Aburamu aiguire atĩ mũndũ ũcio wao nĩanyiitĩtwo agatahwo-rĩ, agĩĩta andũ magana matatũ na ikũmi na anana arĩa maarutĩtwo kũrũa mbaara na maaciarĩirwo gwake mũciĩ, makĩingatithia thũ icio o nginya Dani.
And Abram having heard that Lot his nephew had been taken captive, numbered his own home-born [servants] three hundred and eighteen, and pursued after them to Dan.
15 Ũtukũ-rĩ, Aburamu akĩgayania andũ ake mamatharĩkĩre, nake akĩmahoota na akĩmaingatithia nginya Hoba, itũũra rĩrĩ gathigathini wa Dameski.
And he came upon them by night, he and his servants, and he struck them and pursued them as far as Choba, which is on the left of Damascus.
16 Aburamu agĩcookithia indo ciothe iria ciatahĩtwo, na Loti mũndũ ũcio wao, na indo ciake ciothe, hamwe na andũ-a-nja na andũ arĩa angĩ.
And he recovered all the cavalry of Sodom, and he recovered Lot his nephew, and all his possessions, and the women and the people.
17 Aburamu acooka kuuma kũhoota Kedorilaomeri na athamaki arĩa maarĩ rũmwe nake-rĩ, mũthamaki wa Sodomu agĩthiĩ kũmũtũnga Gĩtuamba-inĩ gĩa Shave (na no kĩo gĩĩtagwo Gĩtuamba-kĩa-Mũthamaki).
And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after he returned from the slaughter of Chodollogomor, and the kings with him, to the valley of Saby; this was the plain of the kings.
18 Nake Melikisedeki mũthamaki wa Salemu akĩrehe mĩgate na ndibei. We aarĩ mũthĩnjĩri wa Mũrungu Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno.
And Melchisedec king of Salem brought forth loaves and wine, and he was the priest of the most high God.
19 Na akĩrathima Aburamu, akiuga atĩrĩ, “Aburamu arorathimwo nĩ Mũrungu Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno, o we Mũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ.
And he blessed Abram, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, who made heaven and earth,
20 Ningĩ Mũrungu Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno arogaathwo, o ũcio ũraneanire thũ ciaku moko-inĩ maku.” Nake Aburamu akĩhe Melikisedeki gĩcunjĩ gĩa ikũmi kĩa indo ciothe iria aatunyĩte athamaki arĩa ana.
and blessed be the most high God who delivered your enemies into your power. And Abram gave him the tithe of all.
21 Nake mũthamaki wa Sodomu akĩĩra Aburamu atĩrĩ, “Niĩ nengera o andũ tu, ũrigie na indo ituĩke ciaku.”
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the men, and take the horses to yourself.
22 No Aburamu akĩĩra mũthamaki ũcio wa Sodomu atĩrĩ, “Nĩnyambararĩtie guoko gwakwa na igũrũ na ngehĩta na mwĩhĩtwa kũrĩ Jehova Mũrungu Ũrĩa-ũrĩ-Igũrũ-Mũno, Mũmbi wa igũrũ na thĩ,
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I will stretch out my hand to the Lord the most high God, who made the heaven and the earth,
23 atĩ ndingĩĩtĩkĩra kuoya kĩndũ o na kĩmwe gĩaku, o na karũrigi kana kamũkwa ga kĩraatũ, nĩgeetha ndũkanoige atĩrĩ, ‘Nĩ niĩ ndatongirie Aburamu.’
[that] I will not take from all your goods from a string to a shoe-latchet, lest you should say, I have made Abram rich.
24 Ndingĩĩtĩkĩra kuoya kĩndũ, o tiga kĩrĩa kĩrĩĩtwo nĩ andũ akwa, na igai rĩa andũ arĩa tũrathiĩte nao, na nĩo Aneri, na Eshikoli, na Mamure. Acio nĩmooe rũgai rwao.”
Except what things the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men that went with me, Eschol, Aunan, Mambre, these shall take a portion.
