1 Mózes 14
1 Lőn pedig Amrafelnek, Sineár királyának és Ariókhnak, Elászár királyának, Khédorlaomernek, Élám királyának, és Thidálnak, a Góim királyának napjaiban:
In a region to the east, there were four kings [who were friends/allies]. They were King Amraphel of Babylonia, King Arioch of Ellasar, King Chedorlaomer of Elam, and King Tidal of Goiim.
2 Hadat indítának ezek Bera, Sodoma királya ellen, Birsa, Gomora királya ellen, Sináb, Admáh királya ellen, Seméber, Czeboim királya ellen és Bélah, azaz Czoár királya ellen.
In an area to the west, there were five other kings. They were King Bera of Sodom, King Birsha of Gomorrah, King Shinab of Admah, King Shemeber of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, the city that is now called Zoar.
3 Mind ezek a Sziddim völgyében egyesűlének; ez a Sóstenger.
Those five kings and their armies gathered together in Siddim Valley, which is also called the Dead Sea [Valley], to fight against the four kings and their armies. King Chedorlaomer and his army [conquered the armies of those five kings, and demanded that those kings pay him tribute money each year].
4 Tizenkét esztendeig szolgálták vala Khédorlaomert, és a tizenharmadik esztendőben ellene támadtak vala.
For twelve years he ruled them. But during the thirteenth year they rebelled [and refused to keep giving him tribute money].
5 A tizennegyedik esztendőben pedig eljöve Khédorlaomer, és a királyok, a kik ő vele valának, és megverék a Refeusokat Asztheroth Kárnajimban, és a Zuzeusokat Hámban, és az Emeusokat Sávé-Kirjáthajimban.
The next year, King Chedorlaomer and the other kings that were his allies took their armies and defeated the Repha people-group in Ashteroth-Karnaim and the Zuz people-group in Ham, and the Emi people-group in Shaveh-Kiriathaim.
6 És a Horeusokat az ő hegyökön, a Seiren, egész Él-Páránig, mely a puszta mellett van.
They also defeated the Hor people-group in the hilly area of Seir as far as El-Paran near the desert.
7 És megtérének s menének Hén Mispátba, azaz Kádesbe, és elpusztíták az Amálekiták egész mezőségét, és az Emoreusokat is, kik laknak vala Háczaczon-Thámárban.
Then they turned back and went to Mishpat [city], which is now called Kadesh. They conquered all the land belonging to the Amalek people-group and the Amor people-group who were living in Hazazon-Tamar [town].
8 Kiméne tehát Sodoma királya, Gomora királya, Admáh királya, Czeboim királya, és Bélah, azaz Czoár királya, és megütközének azokkal a Sziddim völgyében:
Then the armies of the kings of Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim and Bela marched out to fight the armies of the other four kings in Siddim Valley. That valley is close to the Salt/Dead Sea.
9 Khédorlaomerrel, Élám királyával, és Thidállal, Gójim királyával, Amráfellel, Sineár királyával, és Ariókhkal, Elászár királyával: négy király öt ellen.
They fought against the armies of Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, Tidal the king of Goiim, Amraphel the king of Shinar, and Arioch the king of Ellasar. The armies of four kings were fighting against the armies of five kings.
10 A Siddim völgye pedig tele vala szurok-forrásokkal. És megfutamodának Sodoma és Gomora királyai, és azokba esének: a megmaradottak pedig a hegységbe futának.
The Siddim Valley was full of tar pits. So when the armies of the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah tried to run away, many of the men fell into the tar pits. The others escaped and ran away to the hills.
11 És elvivék Sodomának és Gomorának minden jószágát és minden eleségét; és elmenének.
As [the armies of the five kings] fled, [the armies of the four kings] seized all of the valuable things in Sodom and Gomorrah, including all the food.
12 Elvivék Lótot is az Ábrám atyjafiának fiát jószágostól együtt, és elmenének; mert Lót Sodomában lakik vala.
They also captured Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since he was living in Sodom at that time.
13 Eljöve pedig egy menekűlt és hírűl hozá a héber Ábrámnak, a ki lakik vala az Emoreus Mamrénak, Eskol atyjafiának és Áner atyjafiának tölgyesében, a kik meg Ábrámnak szövetségesei valának.
Abram was living near the big trees near Mamre, who belonged to the Amor people-group. Abram had made an agreement with Mamre and his two brothers, Eshcol and Aner, [that they would help each other if there was a war].
14 A mint meghallá Ábrám, hogy az ő atyjafia fogságba esett, felfegyverzé házában nevekedett háromszáz tizennyolcz próbált legényét és üldözve nyomula Dánig.
One of the men who escaped from the battle told Abram what had happened and that his nephew Lot had been captured and taken away. So Abram summoned 318 men who were his servants, men who had been with Abram since they were born. They all went together and pursued their enemies as far north as Dan [city].
15 És csapatokra oszolván ellenök éjszaka ő és szolgái, megveré őket, és űzé őket mind Hóbáig, a mely Damaskustól balra esik.
During the night, Abram divided the men into several groups, and they attacked their enemies from various directions and defeated them. They pursued them as far as Hobah, which was north of Damascus [city].
16 És visszahozá mind a jószágot; Lótot is, az ő atyjafiát jószágával egybe visszahozá, meg az asszonyokat és a népet.
Abram’s men recovered all of the goods that had been taken. They also rescued Lot and all his possessions and also the women and others who had been captured by their enemies.
17 Minekutánna pedig visszatért Khédorlaomernek és a vele volt királyoknak megveréséből, kiméne ő elébe Sodomának királya a Sáve völgyébe, azaz a király völgyébe.
As Abram was returning home after he and his men had defeated the armies of King Chedorlaomer and the other kings who had fought alongside him, the king of Sodom went north to meet him in Shaveh Valley, which people call the King’s Valley.
18 Melkhisédek pedig Sálem királya, kenyeret és bort hoza; ő pedig a Magasságos Istennek papja vala.
The king of Salem [city], whose name was Melchizedek, was also a priest who offered sacrifices to the Supreme God. He brought some bread and wine to Abram.
19 És megáldá őt, és monda: Áldott legyen Ábrám a Magasságos Istentől, ég és föld teremtőjétől.
Then he blessed Abram, saying “I ask the Supreme God, the one who created heaven and earth, to bless you.
20 Áldott a Magasságos Isten, a ki kezedbe adta ellenségeidet. És tizedet ada néki mindenből.
The Supreme God has enabled you to defeat [MTY] your enemies, so we should praise/thank him.” Then Abram gave to Melchizedek a tenth part of all the things he had captured.
21 És monda Sodoma királya Ábrámnak: Add nékem a népet, a jószágot pedig vedd magadnak.
The king of Sodom said to Abram, “You can keep all the goods you recovered. Just let me take back the people from my city whom you rescued.”
22 És monda Ábrám Sodoma királyának: Felemeltem az én kezemet az Úrhoz, a Magasságos Istenhez, ég és föld teremtőjéhez:
But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have solemnly promised [MTY] to Yahweh, the Supreme God, the one who created heaven and earth,
23 Hogy én egy fonalszálat, vagy egy sarukötőt sem veszek el mindabból, a mi a tiéd, hogy ne mondjad: Én gazdagítottam meg Ábrámot.
that I will not accept even one thread or a thong of a sandal from anything that belongs to you. As a result, you will never be able to say, ‘I caused Abram to become rich.’
24 Semmi egyebet, csupán a legények élelmét, és ama férfiak részét, kik én velem eljöttek volt: Áner, Eskhol, Mamré, ők vegyék ki az ő részöket.
The only thing I will accept is the food that my men have eaten. But Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre went with me and fought alongside me, so let them also have a share of the goods we brought back.” [So the king of Sodom agreed to what he said].
