1 Mu biro bya Amulafeeri kabaka wa Sinaali, ne Aliyooki kabaka wa Erasali, ne Kedolawomeeri kabaka wa Eramu ne Tidali kabaka wa Goyiyimu,
And in the dayes of Amraphel King of Shinar, Arioch King of Ellasar, Chedor-laomer King of Elam, and Tidal king of the nations:
2 bakabaka bano ne balumba ne balwana ne Bbeera kabaka wa Sodomu, ne Bbiruusa kabaka wa Ggomola, ne Sinaabu kabaka wa Aduma, ne Semebeeri kabaka wa Zeboyiyimu ne kabaka wa Bera, ye Zowaali.
These men made warre with Bera King of Sodom, and with Birsha King of Gomorah, Shinab King of Admah, and Shemeber King of Zeboiim, and the King of Bela, which is Zoar.
3 Bano bonna abooluvannyuma ne beegatta wamu mu kiwonvu kya Sidimu (y’Ennyanja ey’Omunnyo).
All these ioyned together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt Sea.
4 Baamala emyaka kkumi n’ebiri nga baweereza Kedolawomeeri kabaka we Eramu, naye mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’esatu ne bamujeemera.
Twelue yeere were they subiect to Chedor-laomer, but in the thirteenth yeere they rebelled.
5 Mu mwaka ogw’ekkumi n’ena Kedolawomeeri ne bakabaka abaali naye ne balumba Abaleefa mu Asuterosikalumayimu ne babawangula, n’Abazuuzi mu Kaamu, n’Abemi mu Savekiriyasayimu,
And in the fourteenth yeere came Chedor-laomer, and the Kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in Shaueh Kiriathaim,
6 n’Abakooli mu nsi ey’ensozi eya Seyiri n’okutuukira ddala Erupalaani okumpi n’eddungu.
And the Horites in their mount Seir, vnto the plaine of Paran, which is by the wildernesse.
7 Ate ne bakyuka ne bajja e Nuumisupaati, ye Kadesi ne bawangula ensi yonna ey’Abamaleki n’Abamoli abaabeeranga mu Kazazonutamali.
And they returned and came to En-mishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the countrey of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites that dwelled in Hazezon-tamar.
8 Awo kabaka wa Sodomu ne kabaka wa Ggomola, ne kabaka wa Aduma, ne kabaka wa Zeboyiyimu ne kabaka wa Bera, ye Zowaali ne beegatta mu lutalo mu kiwonvu ky’e Sidimu
Then went out the King of Sodom, and the King of Gomorah, and the King of Admah, and the King of Zeboiim, and the King of Bela, which is Zoar: and they ioyned battell with them in the vale of Siddim:
9 okulwanyisa Kedolawomeeri kabaka wa Eramu, ne Tidali kabaka wa Goyiyimu ne Amulafeeri kabaka wa Sinaali awamu ne Aliyooki kabaka wa Erasali, bakabaka bana nga balwanyisa bakabaka bataano.
To wit, with Chedor-laomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar: foure Kings against fiue.
10 Ekiwonvu ky’e Sidimu kyali kijjudde ebinnya ebirimu kolaasi; bakabaka b’e Sodomu ne Ggomola bwe baddukanga ng’abamu babigwamu, n’abalala ne baddukira ku nsozi.
Now the vale of Siddim was full of slime pits, and the Kings of Sodom and Gomorah fled and fell there: and ye residue fled to the mountaine.
11 Awo bakabaka abana ne batwala ebintu byonna ebyali mu Sodomu ne Ggomola, n’emmere yaabwe yonna gye baalina ne bagenda.
Then they tooke all the substance of Sodom and Gomorah, and al their vitailes and went their way.
12 Era ne batwala ne Lutti, mutabani wa muganda wa Ibulaamu eyali mu Sodomu, n’ebintu bye ne bagenda nabyo kubanga naye yali abeera mu Sodomu.
They tooke Lot also Abrams brothers sonne and his substance (for he dwelt at Sodom) and departed.
13 Awo Omwamoli omu eyali abadduseeko n’ajja n’ategeeza Ibulaamu Omwebbulaniya, eyali abeera okumpi n’emivule gya Mamule, muganda wa Esukoli ne Aneri abaalina endagaano ne Ibulaamu.
Then came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Ebrew, which dwelt in the plaine of Mamre ye Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner, which were confederat with Abram.
14 Ibulaamu bwe yawulira nti muganda we atwalibbwa nga munyage, n’akulembera basajja be abatendeke, abazaalirwa mu nnyumba ye, ebikumi bisatu mu kkumi na munaana, ne bawondera abaatwala Lutti okutuuka e Ddaani.
When Abram heard that his brother was taken, he brought forth of them that were borne and brought vp in his house, three hundreth and eighteene, and pursued them vnto Dan.
15 Mu kiro n’ayawulamu eggye lye, n’abalumba, ye n’abaddu be ne bagoberera abantu bali okutuuka e Kkoba, ku luuyi olw’obukiikakkono obwa Damasiko.
Then he, and his seruants deuided them selues against them by night, and smote them and pursued them vnto Hobah, which is on the left side of Damascus,
16 Awo n’akomyawo ebintu byonna, era n’akomyawo ne muganda we Lutti n’ebintu bye n’abakazi n’abantu bonna.
And he recouered all the substance, and also brought againe his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also and the people.
17 Ibulaamu bwe yakomawo ng’amaze okuwangula Kedolawomeeri ne bakabaka abaali naye, kabaka wa Sodomu n’afuluma okumusisinkana mu kiwonvu ky’e Save (kye kiwonvu kya kabaka).
After that he returned from the slaughter of Chedor-laomer, and of the Kings that were with him, came the King of Sodom foorth to meete him in the valley of Shaueh, which is the Kings dale.
18 Ne Merukizeddeeki kabaka wa Ssaalemi eyali kabona wa Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo n’aleeta omugaati n’envinnyo.
And Melchi-zedek King of Shalem brought foorth bread and wine: and he was a Priest of the most high God.
19 N’asabira Ibulaamu omukisa ng’agamba nti, “Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo Omutonzi w’eggulu n’ensi awe Ibulaamu omukisa.
Therefore he blessed him, saying, Blessed art thou, Abram, of God most high possessour of heauen and earth,
20 Era Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo agulumizibwe agabudde abalabe bo mu mikono gyo.” Awo Ibulaamu n’amuwa ekitundu eky’ekkumi ekya buli kimu.
And blessed be the most high God, which hath deliuered thine enemies into thine hand. And Abram gaue him tythe of all.
21 Ne kabaka wa Sodomu n’agamba Ibulaamu nti, “Mpa abantu, gwe otwale ebintu.”
Then the King of Sodom saide to Abram, Giue me the persons, and take the goodes to thy selfe.
22 Naye Ibulaamu n’addamu kabaka wa Sodomu nti, “Ndayira Mukama Katonda Ali Waggulu Ennyo, Omutonzi w’eggulu n’ensi,
And Abram said to the King of Sodom, I haue lift vp mine hand vnto the Lord the most hie God possessor of heauen and earth,
23 sijja kutwala wadde akawuzi oba akakoba akasiba engatto, oba ekintu kyonna ekikyo, oleme okugamba nti, ‘Ngaggawazza Ibulaamu.’
That I will not take of all that is thine, so much as a threde or shoolatchet, lest thou shouldest say, I haue made Abram riche,
24 Sijja kubaako kye ntwala; okuggyako ebyo abavubuka bye balidde, n’omugabo gw’abasajja abaagenda nange; leka Aneri ne Esukoli ne Mamule bo batwale omugabo gwabwe.”
Saue onely that, which the yong men haue eaten, and the partes of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre: let them take their partes.
