Genesisi 14
1 Panguva iyoyo Amuraferi mambo weShinari, Arioki mambo weErasa, Kedhoraomeri mambo weEramu naTidhari mambo weGoyimi
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 vakaenda kundorwa naBhera mambo weSodhomu, Bhirisha mambo weGomora, Shinabhi mambo weAdhima, Shemebheri mambo weZebhoimi, uye namambo weBhera (ndiro Zoari).
[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 Madzimambo ose aya akabatana pakurwa muMupata weSidhimi (ndiro Gungwa roMunyu).
All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
4 Vakanga vari varanda vaKedhoraomeri kwamakore gumi namaviri, asi vakamumukira mugore regumi namatatu.
Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 Mugore regumi namana, Kedhoraomeri namadzimambo ainzwanana naye vakabuda vakandokunda vaRefaiti muAshiteroti Kanaimi, ivo vaZuzi muHamu, vaEmi muShavhe Kiriataimi
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 navaHori munyika yezvikomo yeSeiri, kusvikira kuEri Parani pedyo negwenga.
And the Horites in their mount Seir, to El-paran, which [is] by the wilderness.
7 Ipapo vakadzokera vakaenda kuEni Mishipati (ndiro Kadheshi), uye vakakunda nyika yose yavaAmareki, pamwe chete navaAmori vakanga vachigara muHazazoni Tamari.
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 Ipapo mambo weSodhomu, mambo weGomora, mambo weAdhima, mambo weZebhoimi namambo weBhera (ndiro, Saori) vakabuda vakamira panzvimbo yavo yehondo muMupata weSidhimi
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 kuti varwe naKedhoraomeri mambo weEramu, Tidhari mambo weGoyimi, Amuraferi mambo weShinari naArioki mambo weErasa, madzimambo mana achirwa namadzimambo mashanu.
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 Zvino mupata weSidhimi wakanga uzere namakomba etara, uye madzimambo eSodhomu neGomora paakatiza, vamwe varume vakawira maari uye vakasara vakatizira kuzvikomo.
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 Madzimambo mana aya akatora pfuma yose yeSodhomu neGomora nezvokudya zvavo zvose vakaenda.
And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.
12 Vakatorawo Roti mwanakomana womununʼuna waAbhurama nepfuma yake, sezvo akanga achigara muSodhomu.
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 Mumwe akapunyuka akauya akasvikoudza Abhurama muHebheru. Zvino Abhurama akanga achigara pedyo nemiti mikuru yaMamure muAmori, mununʼuna waEshikori naAneri, avo vose vainzwanana naAbhurama.
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 Abhurama akati anzwa kuti hama yake yakanga yatapwa, akadana varume vakanga vadzidziswa kurwa mazana matatu negumi navasere vakaberekerwa mumba make vakavatevera kusvikira paDhani.
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 Abhurama akapatsanura vanhu vake panguva dzousiku kuti vandovarwisa, uye vakavakunda, vakavatevera kusvikira paHobhabhi, kumusoro kweDhamasiko.
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 Akadzosa zvinhu zvose uye akadzosawo hama yake Roti nepfuma yake, pamwe chete navakadzi navamwe vanhu.
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 Shure kwokudzoka kwaAbhurama akunda Kedhoraomeri namadzimambo akanga abatana naye, mambo weSodhomu akabuda kuti azosangana naye muMupata weShavhe (ndiwo Mupata waMambo).
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 Ipapo Merikizedheki mambo weSaremu akamuvigira chingwa newaini. Akanga ari muprista waMwari Wokumusoro-soro,
And Melchisedek, king of Salem, brought forth bread and wine: and he [was] the priest of the most high God.
19 uye akaropafadza Abhurama, achiti, “Abhurama ngaaropafadzwe naMwari Wokumusoro-soro, Musiki wedenga napasi.
And he blessed him, and said, Blessed [be] Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
20 Uye Mwari Wokumusoro-soro ngaakudzwe, akaisa vavengi vako muruoko rwako.” Ipapo Abhurama akamupa chegumi chezvinhu zvose.
And blessed be the most high God, who hath delivered thy enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
21 Mambo weSodhomu akati kuna Abhurama, “Ndipe vanhu uzvichengetere hako pfuma.”
And the king of Sodom said to Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22 Asi Abhurama akati kuna mambo weSodhomu, “Ndakasimudzira ruoko rwangu kuna Jehovha, Mwari Wokumusoro-soro, Musiki wedenga napasi, uye ndakaita mhiko
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 kuti handizogamuchiri chinhu chako, kunyange rushinda kana rukanda rweshangu, kuti urege kuzoti, ‘Ndakapfumisa Abhurama.’
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 Handina chinhu chandinogamuchira kunze kwezvakadyiwa navanhu vangu uye mugove wavanhu vakaenda neni, Aneri, Shikori naMamure. Ngavatore mugove wavo ivavo.”
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.
