ମୋଶାଙ୍କ ଲିଖିତ ପ୍ରଥମ ପୁସ୍ତକ 14
1 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ଶିନୀୟରର ଅମ୍ରାଫଲ୍ ରାଜା ଓ ଇଲ୍ଲାସରର ଅରୀୟୋକ୍ ରାଜା ଓ ଏଲମ୍ର କଦର୍ଲାୟୋମର ରାଜା ଓ ଗୋୟିମର ତିଦୀୟଲ୍ ରାଜାଙ୍କର ଅଧିକାର ସମୟରେ,
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 ଏମାନେ ସଦୋମର ରାଜା ବିରା ଓ ହମୋରାର ରାଜା ବିର୍ଶା ଓ ଅଦ୍ମାର ରାଜା ଶିନାବ୍ ଓ ସବୋୟୀମର ରାଜା ଶିମେବର ଓ ବିଲାର, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ସୋୟରର ରାଜା ସହିତ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ କଲେ।
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 ଏସମସ୍ତେ ସୀଦ୍ଦୀମ ପଦାରେ, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ଲବଣ ସମୁଦ୍ର ନିକଟରେ ଏକତ୍ର ହୋଇଥିଲେ।
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 ଯେହେତୁ ସେମାନେ ବାର ବର୍ଷ ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ କଦର୍ଲାୟୋମର ରାଜାଙ୍କର ବଶୀଭୂତ ରହି ତ୍ରୟୋଦଶ ବର୍ଷରେ ତାଙ୍କର ବିଦ୍ରୋହୀ ହୋଇଥିଲେ,
For twelve years he ruled them. But during the thirteenth year they rebelled [and refused to keep giving him tribute money].
5 ଏହେତୁ ଚତୁର୍ଦ୍ଦଶ ବର୍ଷରେ କଦର୍ଲାୟୋମର ରାଜା ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସହାୟ ରାଜାଗଣ ଆସି ଅସ୍ତରୋତ୍ କର୍ଣ୍ଣୟିମରେ ରଫାୟୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଓ ହମରେ ସୁଷୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଓ ଶାବୀ କିରୀୟାଥୟିମ୍ରେ ଏମୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ,
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 ଓ ପ୍ରାନ୍ତର ନିକଟସ୍ଥ ଏଲ-ପାରଣ ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ସେୟୀର ପର୍ବତ ନିବାସୀ ହୋରୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ଜୟ କଲେ।
They also defeated the Hor people-group in the hilly area of Seir as far as El-Paran near the desert.
7 ପୁଣି, ସେମାନେ ସେହି ସ୍ଥାନରୁ ବାହୁଡ଼ି ଐଣ୍ମିସ୍ପଟ୍, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, କାଦେଶକୁ ଯାଇ ଅମାଲେକୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କର ସମସ୍ତ ଦେଶ ଓ ହତ୍-ସସୋନ୍-ତାମର ନିବାସୀ ଇମୋରୀୟ ଲୋକମାନଙ୍କୁ ପରାସ୍ତ କଲେ।
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 ଏହେତୁ ସଦୋମର ରାଜା ଓ ହମୋରାର ରାଜା ଓ ଅଦ୍ମାର ରାଜା ଓ ସବୋୟୀମର ରାଜା ଓ ବିଲାର, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ସୋୟରର ରାଜା, ଏହି ପାଞ୍ଚ ରାଜା ମିଳିତ ହୋଇ,
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 ଏଲମ୍ର କଦର୍ଲାୟୋମର ରାଜା ଓ ଗୋୟିମର ତିଦୀୟଲ୍ ରାଜା ଓ ଶିନୀୟରର ଅମ୍ରାଫଲ୍ ରାଜା ଓ ଇଲ୍ଲାସରର ଅରୀୟୋକ୍ ରାଜା, ଏହି ଚାରି ରାଜାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ସୀଦ୍ଦୀମ ପଦାରେ ଯୁଦ୍ଧ କରିବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ।
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 ସେହି ସୀଦ୍ଦୀମ ପଦାରେ ମାଟିଆ ତୈଳର ଅନେକ ଖାତ ଥିଲା; ସଦୋମ ଓ ହମୋରାର ରାଜାଗଣ ପଳାଇ ଯାଉ ଯାଉ ତହିଁ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ପଡ଼ିଲେ, ପୁଣି, ଯେଉଁମାନେ ଅବଶିଷ୍ଟ ରହିଲେ, ସେମାନେ ପର୍ବତକୁ ପଳାଇଗଲେ।
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 ଏଥିନିମନ୍ତେ ସେମାନେ ସଦୋମ ଓ ହମୋରାର ସମସ୍ତ ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି ଓ ଭକ୍ଷ୍ୟଦ୍ରବ୍ୟ ଲୁଟି ନେଇ ପ୍ରସ୍ଥାନ କଲେ।
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 ପୁଣି, ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କର ପୁତୁରା ସଦୋମନିବାସୀ ଲୋଟଙ୍କୁ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସମସ୍ତ ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି ନେଇ ଚାଲିଗଲେ।
They also captured Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since he was living in Sodom at that time.
13 ସେତେବେଳେ ଜଣେ ପଳାତକ ଏବ୍ରୀୟ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ ସମାଚାର ଦେଲା; ସେହି ସମୟରେ ଅବ୍ରାମ ଇଷ୍କୋଲର ଓ ଆନେର୍ର ଭ୍ରାତା ଇମୋରୀୟ ମମ୍ରିର ଅଲୋନ ବୃକ୍ଷ ମୂଳେ ବାସ କରୁଥିଲେ, ପୁଣି, ସେମାନେ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କର ସହାୟ ଥିଲେ।
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 ସେତେବେଳେ ଅବ୍ରାମ ଆପଣା ଜ୍ଞାତି ଧରା ହୋଇ ଯିବାର ସମାଚାର ଶୁଣିବା ମାତ୍ରକେ (ଯୁଦ୍ଧ ବିଦ୍ୟାରେ) ଶିକ୍ଷିତ ଆପଣା ଗୃହଜାତ ତିନି ଶହ ଅଠର ଜଣ ଲୋକଙ୍କୁ ସଙ୍ଗରେ ଘେନି ଶତ୍ରୁଗଣର ପଛେ ପଛେ ଦୌଡ଼ି ଦାନ୍ ନଗର ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ଗଲେ।
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 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ସେ ଆପଣା ଦାସମାନଙ୍କୁ ଦୁଇ ଦଳ କରି ରାତ୍ରିକାଳରେ ଶତ୍ରୁମାନଙ୍କୁ ଆକ୍ରମଣ କଲେ, ପୁଣି, ଦମ୍ମେଶକର ଉତ୍ତରସ୍ଥିତ ହୋବା ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ସେମାନଙ୍କର ପଛେ ପଛେ ଗୋଡ଼ାଇଲେ।
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 ଆଉ, ସବୁ ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି ଓ ଆପଣାର ଜ୍ଞାତି ଲୋଟ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି, ପୁଣି, ସ୍ତ୍ରୀଗଣ ଓ ଲୋକସମୂହକୁ ବାହୁଡ଼ାଇ ଆଣିଲେ।
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 ଏହିରୂପେ ଅବ୍ରାମ କଦର୍ଲାୟୋମରକୁ ଓ ତାଙ୍କର ସହାୟ ରାଜାଗଣକୁ ଜୟ କରି ବାହୁଡ଼ିଲା ଉତ୍ତାରେ, ସଦୋମର ରାଜା ତାଙ୍କ ସହିତ ସାକ୍ଷାତ କରିବାକୁ ଶାବୀ ପଦା, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ରାଜାର ପଦାକୁ ଗମନ କଲେ।
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 ପୁଣି, ଶାଲେମ୍ର ରାଜା ମଲ୍କୀଷେଦକ ରୁଟି ଓ ଦ୍ରାକ୍ଷାରସ ଘେନି ଆସିଲେ; ସେ ସର୍ବୋପରିସ୍ଥ ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କର ଯାଜକ;
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 ସେ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ ଆଶୀର୍ବାଦ କରି କହିଲେ, “ଅବ୍ରାମ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗ ଓ ପୃଥିବୀର ଅଧିକାରୀ ସର୍ବୋପରିସ୍ଥ ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କର ଆଶୀର୍ବାଦ-ପାତ୍ର ହେଉନ୍ତୁ;
Then he blessed Abram, saying “I ask the Supreme God, the one who created heaven and earth, to bless you.
20 ସର୍ବୋପରିସ୍ଥ ପରମେଶ୍ୱର ଧନ୍ୟ ହେଉନ୍ତୁ, ସେ ତୁମ୍ଭର ଶତ୍ରୁଗଣଙ୍କୁ ତୁମ୍ଭ ହସ୍ତରେ ସମର୍ପଣ କଲେ।” ସେତେବେଳେ (ଅବ୍ରାମ) ସବୁ ଦ୍ରବ୍ୟର ଦଶମାଂଶ ତାଙ୍କୁ ଦେଲେ।
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 ଏଥିଉତ୍ତାରେ ସଦୋମର ରାଜା ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ କହିଲେ, “ତୁମ୍ଭେ ସମସ୍ତ ସମ୍ପତ୍ତି ନିଅ, ମାତ୍ର ମନୁଷ୍ୟ ସକଳ ଆମ୍ଭଙ୍କୁ ଦିଅ।”
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 ତହିଁରେ ଅବ୍ରାମ ସଦୋମର ରାଜାକୁ ଉତ୍ତର କଲେ, “ମୁଁ ସ୍ୱର୍ଗ ଓ ପୃଥିବୀର ଅଧିକାରୀ ସଦାପ୍ରଭୁ ପରମେଶ୍ୱରଙ୍କ ଉଦ୍ଦେଶ୍ୟରେ ହସ୍ତ ଉଠାଇ କହିଅଛି ଯେ,
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 ମୁଁ ତୁମ୍ଭର କିଛି ନେବି ନାହିଁ, ଖଣ୍ଡିଏ ସୂତା କି ଜୋତାର ବନ୍ଧନୀ ହିଁ ନେବି ନାହିଁ; ପଛେ ଅବା ତୁମ୍ଭେ କହିବ, ‘ଆମ୍ଭେ ଅବ୍ରାମଙ୍କୁ ଧନବାନ କରିଅଛୁ।’
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 କେବଳ ମୋହର ଯୁବା ଲୋକମାନେ ଯାହା ଭୋଜନ କରିଅଛନ୍ତି, ତାହା ନେବି, ପୁଣି, ମୋହର ଯେଉଁ ସହାୟଗଣ ସଙ୍ଗରେ ଯାଇଥିଲେ, ସେମାନେ, ଅର୍ଥାତ୍, ଆନେର୍ ଓ ଇଷ୍କୋଲ ଓ ମମ୍ରି ଆପଣା ଆପଣା ପ୍ରାପ୍ତବ୍ୟ ଭାଗ ଗ୍ରହଣ କରନ୍ତୁ।”
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].
