Genesis 14
1 Napasamak daytoy kadagiti idi al-aldaw da Amrafel nga ari ti Sinar, ni Arioc nga ari ti Eliasar, ni Kedorlaomer nga ari ti Elam, ni Tidal nga ari ti Goiim,
At that time Amraphel was king of Shinar, and he allied himself with Arioch, king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, and Tidal, king of Goiim.
2 a nangparnuayda iti gubat a maibusor kada Bera nga ari ti Sodoma, ni Birsa nga ari ti Gomorra, ni Sinab nga ari ti Adma, ni Semeber nga ari ti Zeboiim ken iti ari ti Bela (maawagan met daytoy iti Zoar).
They attacked Bera, king of Sodom, Birsha, king of Gomorrah, Shinab, king of Admah, Shemeber, king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (otherwise known as Zoar).
3 Nagkakaddua dagitoy naud-udi a lima nga ar-ari idiay tanap ti Siddim (a maawagan met iti Naapgad a Baybay)
All these in the second group joined forces in the Valley of Siddim (the Dead Sea valley).
4 Nagserbida kenni Kedorlaomer iti sangapulo ket dua a tawen, ngem immalsada iti maikasangapulo ket tallo a tawen.
They had been under the rule of Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled against him.
5 Kalpasanna, iti maikasangapulo ket uppat a tawen, immay rinaut da Kedorlaomer ken dagiti ar-ari a kakadduana ti Refaim iti Asterot Karnaim, ti Zuzim iti Ham, ti Emim iti Save Kiriataim,
In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer invaded, along with the kings in his alliance. They defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim,
6 ken dagiti Horeo iti katurturod a pagilianda a Seir, agingga idiay El Paran nga asideg iti let-ang.
and the Horites in their hill country of Seir, all the way to El-paran, near the desert.
7 Kalpasanna, nagsublida ket dimtengda idiay En Mispat (a maawagan met iti Kades), ket inabakda amin a pagilian dagiti Amalekita, ken kasta met dagiti Amorreo nga agnanaed iti Hazazon Tamar.
Then they swung back through and attacked En-mishpat (otherwise known as Kadesh) and conquered the whole country belonging to the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.
8 Kalpasanna, napan nagsagana ti ari ti Sodoma, ti ari ti Gomorra, ti ari ti Adma, ti ari ti Zeboiim, ken ti ari ti Bela (a maawagan met iti Zoar) para iti gubat
Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (otherwise known as Zoar) marched out and prepared for battle in the Valley of Siddim.
9 a maibusor kenni Kedorlaomer nga ari ti Elam, ni Tidal nga ari ti Goiim, ni Amrafel nga ari ti Sinar, ni Arioc nga ari ti Eliasar, uppat nga ar-ari a maibusor iti lima.
They fought Chedorlaomer, king of Elam, Tidal, king of Goiim, Amraphel, king of Shinar, and Arioch, king of Ellasar—four kings on one side against five on the other.
10 Ita, ti tanap ti Siddim ket napunno kadagiti abut a naikkan iti alketran, ket idi timmaray dagiti ari ti Sodoma ken Gomorra, natinnagda sadiay. Ket dagiti nabati, nagkamangda kadagiti kabanbantayan.
There were many tar pits in the Valley of Siddim, and as the defeated kings of Sodom and Gomorrah ran away, some of their men fell into them while the rest ran to the hills.
11 Isu nga innala amin dagiti kabusor dagiti amin nga adda idiay Sodoma ken Gomorra kasta met dagiti amin a taraon, ket pimmanawda.
The invaders took from Sodom and Gomorrah all their possessions and food and left.
12 Iti ipapanda, innalada met ti putot a lalaki ti kabsat ni Abram a ni Lot, nga agnanaed idiay Sodoma agraman dagiti amin a sanikuana.
They also captured Lot, Abram's nephew, and his possessions, because he was living in Sodom.
13 Maysa a nakalibas iti immay nangipadamag kenni Abram a Hebreo. Agnanaed isuna iti abay ti kayo a lugo a kukua ni Mamre, nga Amorreo, a kabsat a lalaki da Escol ken Aner, isuda amin ket addaan iti nasayaat a pannakikadua kenni Abram.
But one of those captured escaped and went and told Abram the Hebrew what had happened. Abram was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, whose brothers were Eshcol and Aner. All of them were Abram's allies.
14 Ita, idi nangngeg ni Abram a natiliw dagiti kabusorna ti kabagianna, indauloanna iti tallo-gasut ket sangapulo ket walo a nasursuruan a lallaki, a naiyanak iti balayna, ket sinunsonda ida agingga idiay Dan.
When Abram found out that his nephew had been captured, he called together 318 fighting men who had been born in his household and chased after them all the way to Dan.
15 Biningayna dagiti tattaona a maibusor kadakuada iti rabii ket dinarupda ida, ken kinamatda ida inggana idiay Hobah, nga adda iti amianan ti Damasco.
There he divided his men into groups and attacked at night, defeating the enemy and chasing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.
16 Kalpasanna, insublina amin dagiti sanikua, ken insublina met ti kabagianna a ni Lot ken dagiti taraonda, kasta met dagiti babbai ken dagiti dadduma a tattao.
Abram recovered all that had been taken, including Lot and his possessions, and also brought back the women and others who had been captured.
17 Kalpasan a nagsubli ni Abram manipud iti panangparmekna kenni Kedorlaomer ken dagiti kakaduana nga ar-ari, rimmuar ti ari ti Sodoma tapno sabatenna isuna iti tanap ti Save (a maawagan met iti Tanap ti Ari).
When Abram returned after defeating Chedorlaomer and his allies, the king of Sodom came out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (or Valley of the King).
18 Ni Melkisedek nga ari iti Salem ket nangiruar iti tinapay ken arak. Isuna ket padi ti Kangatoan a Dios.
Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine. He was a priest of the Most High God.
19 Bendisionan koma ti Dios a Kangatoan a Nangparsua iti langit ken daga ni Abram.
He blessed Abram, telling him, “May Abram be blessed by the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth.
20 Madaydayaw ti Dios a Kangatoan, nga isu iti nangipaima kadagiti kabusormo kenka”. Kalpasanna, inted ni Abram kenkuana ti apagkapullo dagiti amin a banbanag.
May the Most High God be praised, who handed your enemies over to you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek one tenth of everything.
21 Kinuna ti ari ti Sodoma kenni Abram, “Itedmo kaniak dagiti tattao ket alaem dagiti banbanag para kenka.”
The king of Sodom told Abram, “Let me have the people back, and you can keep everything else for yourself.”
22 Kinuna ni Abram iti ari ti Sodoma, “Intag-ayko ti imak kenni Yahweh a Kangatoan a Dios, a Nangparsua iti langit ken daga,
But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I raise my hand, making a solemn promise to the Lord, the Most High God, Creator of heaven and earth,
23 a saanakto a mangala iti sinulid, galut iti sandalias, wenno aniaman a banag a kukuam, tapno saanmonto pulos nga ibaga, 'Pinabaknangko ni Abram.'
that I refuse to take anything belonging to you, not a single thread or a sandal strap. Otherwise you might claim, ‘It was me who made Abram rich!’
24 Awanto ti alaek malaksid iti kinnan dagiti agtutubo a lallaki ken ti bingay dagiti lallaki a kimmuyog kaniak. Palubosam da Aner, Escol, ken ni Mamre nga alaenda dagiti bingayda.”
I won't take anything except what my men have eaten, and the share for those who accompanied me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them have their share.”
