< Genesis 14 >

1 Tokosra akosr, Amraphel lun Babylonia, Arioch lun Ellasar, Chedorlaomer lun Elam, ac Tidal lun Goiim,
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 elos som in mweun lain tokosra limekosr saya: Bera lun Sodom, Birsha lun Gomorrah, Shinab lun Admah, Shemeber lun Zeboiim, ac tokosra lun Bela (ku Zoar).
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 Tokosra limekosr inge toeni orala u se, ac fahsreni nu Infalfal Siddim, su pa Meoa Misa in pacl inge.
All these met with one consent at the salt valley; this is [now] the sea of salt.
4 Elos tuh muta ye nununku lal Chedorlaomer ke yac singoul luo, tusruktu in yac se aksingoul tolu elos tuyak lainul.
Twelve years they served Chodollogomor, and the thirteenth year they revolted.
5 In yac aksingoul akosr Chedorlaomer ac tokosra tolu wial tuku wi un mwet mweun lalos ac kutangla mwet Rephaim in acn Ashtaroth Karnaim, oayapa mwet Zuzim in acn Ham, mwet Emim in acn tupasrpasr lun Kiriathaim,
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 ac mwet Hor infulan eol Edom, ukwalos na nwe Elparan sisken acn mwesis.
And the Chorrhaeans in the mountains of Seir, to the turpentine tree of Pharan, which is in the desert.
7 Na elos forla ac foloko nu Kadesh (in pacl so pangpang Enmishpat.) Elos eisla acn nukewa lun mwet Amalek, ac kutangla mwet Amor su muta Hazazon Tamar.
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 Na Tokosra lun Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, Zeboiim, ac Bela elos mokuiyak wi un mwet mweun lalos in mweun Infalfal Siddim
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 lain tokosra lun Elam, Goiim, Babylonia, ac Ellasar — tokosra limekosr lain tokosra akosr.
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 Infalfal sac sessesla ke lufin tar, ac ke tokosra lun Sodom ac Gomorrah srike in kaingla liki mweun uh, elos putatyang nu in luf inge, a tokosra tolu saya uh kaingla nu fineol ah.
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 Tokosra akosr ah usla ma nukewa in acn Sodom ac Gomorrah, wi mwe mongo we, ac som.
And they took all the cavalry of Sodom and Gomorrha, and all their provisions, and departed.
12 Lot, wen nutin ma lel Abram, el muta Sodom in pacl sac, ac elos usalla ac ma lal nukewa.
And they took also Lot the son of Abram's brother, and his baggage, and departed, for he lived in Sodom.
13 Tusruktu oasr mwet se kaingla ac fahkak ma sikyak inge nukewa nu sel Abram, mwet Hebrew se su muta fototo nu ke sak oal sunal Mamre, mwet Amor. Mamre ac tamulel luo wial, Eshcol ac Aner, elos welul Abram lac ke pacl in mweun.
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 Ke Abram el lohng lah sruhu wen nutin mwet lel, el pangoneni mukul nukewa ke nien aktuktuk lal su etu mweun — mukul tolfoko singoul oalkosr nufon — ac ukwe na tokosra akosr ah nwe Dan.
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 Ke elos sun acn we, el kitalik mwet lal ah nu ke u, ac sroang nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos ke fong, ac kutangulosla. El ukwalos na nwe Hobah, epang in Damascus,
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 ac folokonma ma wap nukewa ma elos tuh usla. El oayapa folokunulma Lot, wen nutin ma lel, wi ma lal nukewa, weang mutan ac mwet kapir pac saya.
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 Ke Abram el foloko tukun el kutangulla Chedorlaomer ac tokosra ma welul, tokosra lun acn Sodom el illa in sonol Infalfal Shaveh (pangpang pac Infalfal lun Tokosra).
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 Ac Melchizedek, su tokosra lun acn Salem ac el oayapa sie mwet tol lun God Fulatlana, el use bread ac wain nu yorol Abram,
And Melchisedec king of Salem brought forth loaves and wine, and he was the priest of the most high God.
19 ac akinsewowoyal ac fahk, “Lela God Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu, in akinsewowoyal Abram!
And he blessed Abram, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, who made heaven and earth,
20 Lela in kaksakinyuk God Fulatlana, su asot kutangla nu sum fin mwet lokoalok lom!” Ac Abram el sang nu sel Melchizedek sie tafu singoul in ma wap nukewa ma el folokonma.
and blessed be the most high God who delivered your enemies into your power. And Abram gave him the tithe of all.
21 Tokosra lun Sodom el fahk nu sel Abram, “Sruokya ma wap an lom, tusruktu folokonma nufon mwet luk an.”
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the men, and take the horses to yourself.
22 Na Abram el fahk, “Nga orala fulahk luk ye mutun LEUM GOD, El su Fulatlana, su orala kusrao ac faclu,
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 lah nga ac fah tiana sruokya kutena ma lom, finne turet soko ku soko mwe lohl fahluk, kom in mau tia ku in fahk mu, ‘Nga pa oru Abram el kasrup.’
[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 Nga fah tiana eis kutena ma, sayen ma mwet luk inge orekmakin tari uh. Tusruktu lela elos su wiyu inge (Aner, Eshcol, ac Mamre) in eis ip lalos.”
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.
