उत्पत्ति 14
1 यो अम्रापेल, एल्लासारका राजा अर्योक र एलाममा राजा कदोर्लाओमेर र गोयीमका राजा तिदालको समयमा भएको थियो ।
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 nations;
2 तिनीहरूले सदोमका राजा बेरा, गमोराका राजा बिर्शा, अद्माका राजा शिनाब, सबोयिमका राजा शेमेबेर र बेला (अर्थात् सोअरका) विरुद्ध युद्ध गरे ।
[That these] 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, which is Zoar.
3 यी पछिल्ला पाँच जना राजाहरू सिद्दीम अर्थात् मृत सागरको बेँसीमा भेला भए ।
All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
4 तिनीहरूले बाह्र वर्षसम्म कदर्लाओमेरको सेवा गरे तर तेह्रौँ वर्षमा तिनीहरूले विद्रोह गरे ।
Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 अनि चौधौँ वर्षमा, कदोर्लाओमेर र तिनीसित भएका राजाहरू आए र अस्तेरोत-केर्णेममा रपाईहरूलाई, हाममा जूजीहरूलाई, शावेकिर्यातैममा एमीहरूलाई,
And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that [were] with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emins in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
6 र होरीहरूलाई सेइरको पहाडी देशमा मरुभूमि नजिक रहेको एल-पारानसम्म आक्रमण गरे ।
And the Horites in their mount Seir, to El-paran, which [is] by the wilderness.
7 त्यपछि तिनीहरू फर्के र एन-मिशपातमा (अर्थात् कादेशमा) आए अनि अमालेकीहरूका सबै देशहरू र हासेसोन-तामारमा बस्ने एमोरीहरूलाई पराजीत गरे ।
And they returned, and came to En-mishpat, which [is] Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.
8 त्यसपछि सदोमका राजा, गमोराका राजा, अदमाका राजा, सबोयिमका राजा र बेला (अर्थात् सोअरका) राजा निस्के अनि सिद्दीमको बेँसीमा युद्धको निम्ति तयार भए ।
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 joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
9 एलामका राजा कदोर्लाओमेर, गोयीमका राजा तिदाल, शिनारका राजा अम्रापेल, एल्लासारका राजा अर्योक; पाँच राजाका विरिद्ध चार राजा ।
With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.
10 सिद्दीमको बेँसी अलकत्राको धापले भरिएको थियो, र सदोम र गमोराका राजाहरू भागे, तिनीहरू त्यसमा खसे । बाँकी रहेकाहरू पहाडतिर भागे ।
And the vale of Siddim [was full of] slime-pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there: and they that remained fled to the mountain.
11 यसैले राजाहरू सदोम र गमोराका सबै मालसामानहरू, तिनीहरूका रासनहरू लगे र आफ्नो बाटो लागे ।
And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.
12 जब तिनीहरू गए, तिनीहरूले अब्रामका भाइका छोरा लोतलाई पनि तिनका सबै मालसामानसँगै लगे, जो सदोममा बसोबास गरिरहेका थिए ।
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 उम्केर आएका एक जानले हिब्रू अब्रामलाई भने । तिनी एश्कोल र अनेरका भाइ मम्रेका फलाँटका रूखहरू नजिक बसिरहेका थिए, तिनीहरू सबै अब्रामका मित्रहरू थिए ।
And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these [were] confederate with Abram.
14 जब अब्रामले तिनका नातेदारलाई शत्रुहरूले कब्जा गरेको कुरा सुने, तिनले आफ्ना घरमा नै जन्मेका तालिम प्राप्त ३१८ जना मानिसहरू लिएर तिनले तिनीहरूलाई दानसम्म नै खेदे ।
And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained [servants], born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued [them] to Dan.
15 तिनले आफ्ना मानिसहरूलाई राती तिनीहरू विरुद्ध समूह-समूहमा विभाजन गरे र तिनीहरूलाई आक्रमण गरे अनि तिनीहरूलाई होबासम्म खेदे, जुन दमस्कसको उत्तर पर्छ ।
And he divided himself against them, he and his servants by night, and smote them, and pursued them to Hobah, which [is] on the left hand of Damascus.
16 तिनले आफ्ना सबै सम्पत्तिहरू पनि फिर्ता ल्याए र तिनका नातेदार र तिनका मालसामानहरू साथै महिलाहरू र अन्य मानिसहरू पनि ल्याए ।
And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
17 अब्रामले कदोर्लाओमेर र तिनीसँग भएका राजाहरूलाई पराजित गरेर फर्केपछि, सदोमका राजा तिनलाई भेट्न शावेको (अर्थात् राजाको उपत्यका) उपत्यकामा गए ।
And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that [were] with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which [is] the king's dale.
18 शालेमका राजा मल्कीसेदेकले रोटी र दाखमद्य लिएर आए । तिनी सर्वोच्चका पूजाहारी थिए ।
And Melchisedek, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine: and he [was] the priest of the most high God.
19 तिनले उनलाई यसो भन्दै आशोष् दिए, “स्वर्ग र पृथ्वी सृष्टि गर्नु हुने परमेश्वरले अब्रामलाई आशिष् दिनुभएको होस् ।
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be] Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
20 सर्वोच्च परमेश्वर धन्यको हौऊन्, जसले तिम्रा शत्रुहरूलाई तिम्रा हातमा सुम्पनुभएको छ ।” तब अब्रामले तिनका सबै थोकको दशांश उनलाई दिए ।
And blessed be the most high God, who hath delivered thy enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
21 सदोमका राजाले अब्रामलाई भने, “मानिसहरू मलाई देऊ र सबै मालसामानहरू आफैले लैजाऊ ।
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22 अब्रामले सदोमका राजालाई भने, “मैले सर्वोच्च परमेश्वर, स्वर्ग र पृथ्वीका सृष्टिकर्ता परमप्रभुमा शपथ खाएको छु,
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lifted my hand to the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
23 मैले तपाईंबाट एउटा धागोम जुत्ताको फित्ता वा कुनै पनि कुरा लिनेछैन, ताकि 'मैले अब्रामलाई धनी बनाएको छु' भनी तपाईंले कहिल्यै भन्न सक्नुहुनेछैन ।
That I will not [take] from a thread even to a shoe-latchet, and that I will not take any thing that [is] thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
24 मैले जवान मानिसहरूले खाएका र मसँग गएका मानिसहरूका भाग बाहेक कुनै कुरा लिनेछैन । आनेर, एश्कोल र मम्रेले आफ्ना भाग लेऊन् ।
Save 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.
