In the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar; Arioch, king of Ellasar; Chedorlaomer, king of Elam; and Tidal, king of Goiim,
2 Kaua mai la lakou me Bera ke alii o Sodoma, me Biresa ke alii o Gomora, me Sinaba ke alii o Adema, me Semebara ke alii o Zeboima, a me ke alii o Bela, oia hoi o Zoara.
they made war with Bera, king of Sodom; Birsha, king of Gomorrah; Shinab, king of Admah; Shemeber, king of Zeboiim; and the king of Bela (also called Zoar).

All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (also called the Salt Sea).
4 Hookauwa aku la lakou na Kedorelaomera i na makahiki he umikumamalua; a i ka umikumamakolu o ka makahiki, kipi ae la lakou.
They served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 A i ka makahiki umikumamaha, hele mai la o Kedorelaomera, a me ia pu ua mau alii la, a hahau mai la i ka Repaima ma Aseterota Kanaima, me ka Zuzima ma Hama, a me ka Emima ma Sehave ma Kiriataima.
In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him came and struck the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
6 A me ka Hora ma ko lakou mauna Seira, a hiki Elepazana ma ka waoakua.
and the Horites in their Mount Seir, to El Paran, which is by the wilderness.
7 A hoi mai la lakou, a hiki mai la i Enemisepata, oia o Kadesa, a hahau aku ia i ko ka aina a pau o ka Amaleki, a me ka Amori i noho la ma Hazezona-tamara.
They returned, and came to En Mishpat (also called Kadesh), and struck all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that lived in Hazazon Tamar.

The king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (also called Zoar) went out; and they set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim
9 Me Kedorelaomera ke alii o Elama, a me Tidala ke alii o Goima, a me Amerapela ke alii o Sinara, a me Arioka ke alii o Elasara; o na'lii eha me na'lii elima.
against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.
10 He nui na lua bitumena ma ke awawa o Sidima; hee aku la na alii o Sodoma a me Gomora, a haule iho la ilaila; a holo aku la ka poe i koe ma ka mauna.
Now the valley of Siddim was full of tar pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and some fell there. Those who remained fled to the hills.
11 Lawe pio aku la lakou i ka waiwai a pau o Sodoma a o Gomora, a me ka lakou ai a pau, a hele aku la.
They took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.
12 Lawe aku la hoi lakou ia Lota, i noho ai ma Sodoma, o ke keiki a ko Aberama kaikuaana, a me kana waiwai, a hoi aku la.
They took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 Hele mai la kekahi o ka poe i pakele, a hai mai la ia Aberama ka Hebera; no ka mea, i noho ai oia ma na laau oka no Mamere ka Amori, ka hoahanau o Esekola, a o Anera: a ua hoolauna pu lakou nei me Aberama.
One who had escaped came and told Abram, the Hebrew. At that time, he lived by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner. They were allies of Abram.
14 Lohe ae la o Aberama, ua lawe pio ia kona hoahanau, alakai aku la ia i kona poe kanaka i hoomakaukauia ka poe i hanau ma kona hale iho, akolu haneri a me kumamawalu, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Dana.
When Abram heard that his relative was taken captive, he led out his three hundred eighteen trained men, born in his house, and pursued as far as Dan.
15 Mahele iho la oia i kona poe e ku e ia lakou, oia a me kana poe kauwa i ka po, poipo aku la ia lakou, a alualu aku la ia lakou a hiki i Hoba, aia ma ka lima hema o Damaseko.
He divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and struck them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
16 Hoihoi mai la ia i ka waiwai a pau, a lawe mai la hoi oia i kona hoahanau ia Lota, a me kona waiwai, me na wahine hoi, a me na kanaka.
He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative Lot and his goods, and the women also, and the other people.
17 Hele aku ke alii o Sodoma iwaho e halawai me Aberama, mahope o kona hoi hou ana mai mai ka luku ana ia Kedorelaomera a me na alii me ia, ma ke awawa o Save, oia ke awawa o ke alii.
The king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, at the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).
18 A o Melekizedeka ke alii o Salema, lawe mai la ia i ka berena a me ka waina: oia ke kahuna o ke Akua kiekie loa.
Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High.
19 Hoomaikai mai la oia ia ia, i mai la, E pomaikai no o Aberama i ke Akua kiekie loa, nona ka lani a me ka honua.
He blessed him, and said, “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth.
20 E hoomaikaiia hoi ke Akua kiekie loa, nana i hoolilo mai kou poe enemi iloko o kou lima. A haawi aku la ia nana i ka hapaumi o na mea a pau.
Blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Abram gave him a tenth of all.
21 I mai la ke alii o Sodoma ia Aberama, o ke kanaka ko'u, a e lawe oe i ka waiwai nou.
The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, and take the goods for yourself.”
22 I aku la o Aberama i ke alii o Sodoma, Ua hapai aku no au i ko'u lima ia Iehova, i ke Akua kiekie loa, i ka mea nona ka lani a me ka honua,
Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have lifted up my hand to the LORD, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,
23 Aole au e lawe no'u i kekahi maawe, aole hoi kekahi mea iki o kau, o olelo ae oe, Ua waiwai o Aberama ia'u:
that I will not take a thread nor a sandal strap nor anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’
24 O ka mea wale no a ka poe kanaka opiopio i ai ai, a me ka puu waiwai pio a ka poe kanaka i hele pu ai me an, o Anera, o Esekola, a o Mamere; e lawe lakou i ko lakou puu.
I will accept nothing from you except 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.”
