Jenesis 14

1 Nʼoge ahụ kwa, Amrafel, eze Shaịna, na Ariok, eze ndị Elasa, na Kedoloma eze Elam, na Tidal eze Goiim,

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 Goiim,

2 buru agha megide Bera eze Sọdọm, na Biasha eze Gọmọra, na Shịnab, eze Adma, na Shemeba eze Zeboiim, na eze obodo Bela (ya bụ Zoa).

that they 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 (the same is Zoar).

3 Ndị eze obodo ndị a: Sọdọm, Gọmọra, Adma, Zeboiim na Bela, jikọtara ndị agha ha ọnụ na Ndagwurugwu Sidim (ya bụ, ndagwurugwu osimiri nnu ahụ).

All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (the same is the Salt Sea).

4 Ha fere ofufe nʼokpuru ọchịchị eze Kedoloma afọ iri na abụọ, ma nʼafọ nke iri na atọ, ha nupuru isi.

They served Chedorlaomer twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

5 Nʼafọ nke iri na anọ, eze Kedoloma na ndị eze ya na ha jikọrọ ọnụ buru agha megide ma merie ndị Refaim bi nʼAshterọt Kenaim na ndị Zuzim bi na Ham na ndị Emim bi Kiriatem na Shave,

And in the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

6 na ndị Hor nʼobodo ugwu Sia, ruo obodo El Paran, nke dị nʼakụkụ ọzara.

and the Horites on their mount Seir, to Elparan, which is by the wilderness.

7 Mgbe ahụ, ha chigharịrị azụ gaa En Mishpat (ya bụ Kadesh). Ha meriri ala niile nke ndị Amalek nakwa ndị Amọrait bi na Hazezọn Tama.

And they returned, and came to En-mishpat (the same is Kadesh), and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, who dwelt in Hazazon-tamar.

8 Mgbe ahụ kwa, ndị agha ndị eze obodo Sọdọm na eze Gọmọra, na eze Adma, na eze Zeboiim, na eze Bela (ya bụ Zoa) pụrụ doo onwe ha nʼusoro ibu agha na Ndagwurugwu Sidim,

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 set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim,

9 imegide Kedoloma eze Elam, Tidal eze Goiim, Amrafel eze Shaịna na Ariok eze Elasa. Ya bụ eze ise buru agha megide eze anọ.

against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.

10 Ma Ndagwurugwu Sidim jupụtara nʼolulu apịtị. Mgbe ndị agha eze Sọdọm na Gọmọra bidoro ịgba ọsọ. Ụfọdụ nʼime ha dabanyere nʼime olulu ndị a, ma ndị fọdụrụ gbapụrụ ọsọ gbaga nʼugwu.

Now the valley of Siddim was full of slime pits. And the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell there. And those who remained fled to the mountain.

11 Ma eze anọ ndị a banyere nʼime obodo Sọdọm na Gọmọra bukọrọ akụ ha, na ihe oriri ha niile laa.

And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.

12 Ha buuru Lọt, nwa nwanne Ebram, onye bi na Sọdọm na ihe niile o nwere, buru ha na-ala ebe ha si bịa.

And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

13 Ma otu onye gbara ọsọ ndụ site nʼebe ahụ gara kọọrọ Ebram onye Hibru ihe mere. Nʼoge a, Ebram bi nʼebe dị nso nʼosisi ukwu nke Mamre, onye Amọrị, nwanne Eshkọl na Anea, ndị ha na Ebram gbara ndụ.

And some man came who had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew. Now he dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner. And these were allies with Abram.

14 Mgbe Ebram nụrụ na adọrọla Lọt nwa nwanne ya nʼagha, ọ kpọkọtara ndị ikom a zụrụ azụ na-ejere ya ozi, ndị a mụrụ nʼụlọ ya. Ọnụọgụgụ ha dị narị ndị ikom atọ na iri na asatọ, ha chụrụ ndị agha ahụ ọsọ tutu ha erute Dan.

And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued as far as Dan.

15 Nʼabalị, Ebram kere ndị agha ya ibuso ndị ahụ agha. O meriri ha, chụọ ha ọsọ, chụruo ha Hoba, nke dị nʼakụkụ ugwu Damaskọs.

And he divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.

16 Ebram nwetaghachiri ihe niile ahụ ha dọtara nʼagha, dulata nwanne ya Lọt, na ihe onwunwe ya niile, tinyere ndị inyom, na ndị ọzọ niile a dọtara nʼagha.

And he brought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot, and his goods, and also the women, and the people.

17 Mgbe Ebram si na mmeri ahụ o meriri Kedoloma na eze ndị ọzọ ahụ na-alọta, eze Sọdọm bịara zute ya na Ndagwurugwu Shave (nke a na-akpọ Ndagwurugwu Eze).

And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh (the same is the King's Valley).

18 Melkizedek, eze Salem, onye nchụaja Chineke nke kachasị ihe niile elu, wepụtara achịcha na mmanya,

And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine. And he was priest of God Most High.

19 ọ gọziri Ebram sị ya, “Ngọzị dịrị Ebram site nʼaka Chineke nke kachasị ihe niile elu, Onye kere eluigwe na ụwa.

And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth.

20 Ngọzị dịkwara Chineke nke kachasị ihe niile elu, onye weere ndị iro gị nyefee gị nʼaka.” Mgbe ahụ, Ebram nyere ya otu ụzọ nʼime ụzọ iri nke ihe niile.

And blessed be God Most High, who has delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And Abram gave him a tenth of all.

21 Eze Sọdọm gwara Ebram sị, “Nyeghachi m naanị ndị mmadụ, ma debere onwe gị ihe ndị ọzọ.”

And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the men, and take the goods to thyself.

22 Ma Ebram zara eze Sọdọm sị, “Eweliri m aka m elu ṅụọ iyi nye Onyenwe anyị Chineke nke kachasị ihe niile elu, Onye kere eluigwe na ụwa, sị

And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted up my hand to Jehovah, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,

23 na agaghị m esi nʼaka gị were ihe ọbụla bụ nke gị, ọ bụladị eriri maọbụ eriri akpụkpọụkwụ. Ka ị ghara ị sị, ‘Ọ bụ m mere ka Ebram baa ọgaranya.’

that I will not take a thread nor a shoe latchet nor anything that is thine, lest thou should say, I have made Abram rich,

24 Naanị ihe m ga-anara bụ ihe ụmụ okorobịa m ndị a riri, ya na oke ruuru Anea, na Eshkọl, na Mamre so m gaa. Nye ha oke ruuru ha.”

except 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.
