Pirmā Mozus 14
1 Un notikās Amrafela, Sineāras ķēniņa, Arioka, Elasaras ķēniņa, Ķedorlaomera, Elama ķēniņa, un Tideāla, Gojimu ķēniņa, laikā -
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 Tie karoja pret Beru, Sodomas ķēniņu, un pret Biršu, Gomoras ķēniņu, Sineabu, Adamas ķēniņu, un Semeberu, Ceboīma ķēniņu, un Belas, tas ir Coāras ķēniņu.
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 Šie visi sapulcējās Sidim ielejā, tā ir tā Sāls jūra.
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 Divpadsmit gadus tie bija kalpojuši Ķedorlaomeram, un trīspadsmitā gadā tie atkrita.
For twelve years he ruled them. But during the thirteenth year they rebelled [and refused to keep giving him tribute money].
5 Un četrpadsmitā gadā Ķedorlaomers nāca un tie ķēniņi, kas līdz ar viņu bija, un sakāva tos Refaīm iekš Astarot-Karnaīm un tos Hauzim Amā, un tos Emim Kiriataīm ielejā,
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 Un tos Horiešus uz viņu Seīra kalniem līdz Ēl-Param, kas pie tuksneša.
They also defeated the Hor people-group in the hilly area of Seir as far as El-Paran near the desert.
7 Un tie griezās atpakaļ un nāca pie Mišpata avota, tas ir Kādeša, un sakāva visu Amalekiešu apgabalu un arī Amoriešus, kas dzīvoja Acecon-Tamarā.
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 Tad izgāja Sodomas ķēniņš un Gomoras ķēniņš un Adamas ķēniņš un Ceboīma ķēniņš un Belas, tas ir Coāras, ķēniņš, un taisījās pret tiem kauties Sidim ielejā,
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 Pret Ķedorlaomeru, Elama ķēniņu, un Tideālu, Gojimu ķēniņu, un Amrafeli, Sineāras ķēniņu, un Arioku, Elasaras ķēniņu: - četri ķēniņi pret pieciem.
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 Un Sidim ielejā bija daudz zemes piķa bedres; tad Sodomas un Gomoras ķēniņi bēga un tur iekrita, un tie atlikušie aizbēga kalnos.
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 Un tie paņēma visu Sodomas un Gomoras mantu un visu viņu barību un aizgāja projām;
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 Un paņēma arī Latu, Ābrama brālēnu, un viņa mantu, jo tas dzīvoja Sodomā, - un aizgāja projām.
They also captured Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since he was living in Sodom at that time.
13 Tad nāca viens, kas bija izmucis, un pasacīja to Ābramam, tam Ebrejam; tas dzīvoja starp tiem ozoliem, kas piederēja tam Amorietim Mamre, Eškola un Anera brālim; šie bija Ābrama derības biedri.
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 Un Ābrams dzirdējis, savu brāli esam aizvestu cietumā, apbruņojās ar saviem kalpiem, kas viņa namā bija dzimuši, trīssimt un astoņpadsmit, un dzinās tiem pakaļ līdz Danam.
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 Un viņš dalījās un uzbruka tiem naktī, viņš un viņa kalpi, un tos sakāva un dzinās tiem pakaļ līdz Hobai, kas Damaskum pa kreiso roku,
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 Un atveda atpakaļ visu mantu, un arī Latu, savu brāli, un viņa mantu viņš atveda atpakaļ, ir tās sievas un tos ļaudis.
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 Un kad viņš atpakaļ nāca no kaušanās ar Kedorlaomeru un ar tiem ķēniņiem, kas pie tā bija, tad Sodomas ķēniņš izgāja viņam pretī līdz Šaves ielejai, - tā ir tā ķēniņa ieleja.
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 Un Melhizedeks, Salemes ķēniņš, iznesa maizi un vīnu, un tas bija priesteris Dievam tam visu augstajam.
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 Un tas viņu svētīja un sacīja: svētīts lai ir Ābrams no tā visu augstā Dieva, kam pieder zeme un debess.
Then he blessed Abram, saying “I ask the Supreme God, the one who created heaven and earth, to bless you.
20 Un svētīts lai ir tas visu augstais Dievs, kas tavus ienaidniekus nodevis tavā rokā. Un Ābrams tam deva desmito tiesu no visām lietām.
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 Un Sodomas ķēniņš sacīja uz Ābramu: dod man tos ļaudis, un to mantu ņem sev.
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 Un Ābrams sacīja uz Sodomas ķēniņu: es savu roku paceļu uz To Kungu, to visaugsto Dievu, kam debess un zeme pieder, -
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 Nevienu pavedienu, nedz kurpes siksnu, nedz citu ko es neņemšu no visa tā, kas tev pieder, lai tu nesaki: es Ābramu esmu darījis bagātu.
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 Tik vien to, ko tie jaunekļi apēduši, un to vīru daļu, kas man gājuši līdz, Aners, Eškols un Mamre, tie lai ņem savu daļu.
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].
