1In those days Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim
1ΕΓΕΝΕΤΟ δὲ ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῇ Ἀμαρφὰλ βασιλέως Σενναάρ, καὶ Ἀριὼχ βασιλέως Ἐλλασάρ, Χοδολλογομὸρ βασιλεὺς Ἐλὰμ καὶ Θαργὰλ βασιλεὺς ἐθνῶν
2went to war against Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar).
2ἐποίησαν πόλεμον μετὰ Βαλλὰ βασιλέως Σοδόμων καὶ μετὰ Βαρσὰ βασιλέως Γομόρρας καὶ μετὰ Σενναὰρ βασιλέως Ἀδαμὰ καὶ μετὰ Συμοβὸρ βασιλέως Σεβωείμ, καὶ βασιλέως Βαλάκ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Σηγώρ).
3The latter five came as allies to the Valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea ).
3πάντες οὗτοι συνεφώνησαν ἐπὶ τὴν φάραγγα τὴν ἁλυκὴν (αὕτη ἡ θάλασσα τῶν ἁλῶν).
4For twelve years they had been subject to Chedorlaomer, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
4δώδεκα ἔτη αὐτοὶ ἐδούλευσαν τῷ Χοδολλογομόρ, τῷ δὲ τρισκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἀπέστησαν.
5In the fourteenth year, Chedorlaomer and the kings allied with him went out and defeated the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim,
5ἐν δὲ τῷ τεσσαρεσκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἦλθε Χοδολλογομὸρ καὶ οἱ βασιλεῖς μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ κατέκοψαν τοὺς γίγαντας τοὺς ἐν Ἀσταρὼθ καὶ Καρναΐν, καὶ ἔθνη ἰσχυρὰ ἅμα αὐτοῖς καὶ τοὺς Ὀμμαίους τοὺς ἐν Σαυῇ τῇ πόλει
6and the Horites in the area of Mount Seir, as far as El-paran, which is near the desert.
6καὶ τοὺς Χορραίους τοὺς ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσι Σηείρ, ἕως τῆς τερεβίνθου τῆς Φαράν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ.
7Then they turned back to invade En-mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and they conquered the whole territory of the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.
7καὶ ἀναστρέψαντες ἦλθον ἐπὶ τὴν πηγὴν τῆς κρίσεως (αὕτη ἐστὶ Κάδης) καὶ κατέκοψαν πάντας τοὺς ἄρχοντας Ἀμαλὴκ καὶ τοὺς Ἀμορραίους τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν Ἀσασονθαμάρ.
8Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) marched out and arrayed themselves for battle in the Valley of Siddim
8ἐξῆλθε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων καὶ βασιλεὺς Γομόρρας καὶ βασιλεὺς Ἀδαμὰ καὶ βασιλεὺς Σεβωεὶμ καὶ βασιλεὺς Βαλάκ (αὕτη ἐστὶ Σηγώρ) καὶ παρετάξαντο αὐτοῖς εἰς πόλεμον ἐν τῇ κοιλάδι τῇ ἁλυκῇ,
9against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five.
9πρὸς Χοδολλογομὸρ βασιλέα Ἐλὰμ καὶ Θαργὰλ βασιλέα ἐθνῶν καὶ Ἀμαρφὰλ βασιλέα Σενναὰρ καὶ Ἀριὼχ βασιλέα Ἐλλασάρ, οἱ τέσσαρες βασιλεῖς πρὸς τοὺς πέντε.
10Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, some men fell into the pits, but the survivors fled to the hill country.
10ἡ δὲ κοιλὰς ἡ ἁλυκή, φρέατα ἀσφάλτου. ἔφυγε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων καὶ βασιλεὺς Γομόρρας καὶ ἐνέπεσαν ἐκεῖ, οἱ δὲ καταλειφθέντες εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν ἔφυγον.
11The four kings seized all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food, and they went on their way.
11ἔλαβον δὲ τὴν ἵππον πᾶσαν τὴν Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόρρας καὶ πάντα τὰ βρώματα αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπῆλθον.
12They also carried off Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, since Lot was living in Sodom.
12ἔλαβον δὲ καὶ τὸν Λὼτ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ ¨Αβραμ καὶ τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπῴχοντο· ἦν γὰρ κατοικῶν ἐν Σοδόμοις.
13Then an escapee came and reported this to Abram the Hebrew. Now Abram was living near the Oaks of Mamre the Amorite, a brother of Eshcol and Aner, all of whom were bound by treaty to Abram.
13Παραγενόμενος δὲ τῶν ἀνασωθέντων τις ἀπήγγειλεν ¨Αβραμ τῷ περάτῃ· αὐτὸς δὲ κατῴκει παρὰ τῇ δρυΐ τῇ Μαμβρῇ Ἀμορραίου τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ Ἐσχὼλ καὶ τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ Αὐνάν, οἳ ἦσαν συνωμόται τοῦ ¨Αβραμ.
14And when Abram heard that his relative had been captured, he mobilized the 318 trained men born in his household, and they set out in pursuit as far as Dan.
14ἀκούσας δὲ ¨Αβραμ ὅτι ᾐχμαλώτευται Λὼτ ὁ ἀδελφιδοῦς αὐτοῦ, ἠρίθμησε τοὺς ἰδίους οἰκογενεῖς αὐτοῦ, τριακοσίους δέκα καὶ ὀκτώ, καὶ κατεδίωξεν ὀπίσω αὐτῶν ἕως Δάν.
15During the night, Abram divided his forces and routed Chedorlaomer’s army, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.
15καὶ ἐπέπεσεν ἐπ᾿ αὐτοὺς τὴν νύκτα αὐτὸς καὶ οἱ παῖδες αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐπάταξεν αὐτοὺς καὶ κατεδίωξεν αὐτοὺς ἕως Χοβά, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν ἀριστερᾷ Δαμασκοῦ.
16He retrieved all the goods, as well as his relative Lot and his possessions, together with the women and the rest of the people.
16καὶ ἀπέστρεψε πᾶσαν τὴν ἵππον Σοδόμων, καὶ Λὼτ τὸν ἀδελφιδοῦν αὐτοῦ ἀπέστρεψε καὶ πάντα τὰ ὑπάρχοντα αὐτοῦ καὶ τὰς γυναῖκας καὶ τὸν λαόν.
17After Abram returned from defeating Chedorlaomer and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).
17Ἐξῆλθε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτῷ, μετὰ τὸ ὑποστρέψαι αὐτὸν ἀπὸ τῆς κοπῆς τοῦ Χοδολλογομὸρ καὶ τῶν βασιλέων τῶν μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, εἰς τὴν κοιλάδα τοῦ Σαβύ (τοῦτο ἦν τὸ πεδίον τῶν βασιλέων).
18Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine—since he was priest of God Most High —
18καὶ Μελχισεδὲκ βασιλεὺς Σαλὴμ ἐξήνεγκεν ἄρτους καὶ οἶνον· ἦν δὲ ἱερεὺς τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ ὑψίστου.
19and he blessed Abram and said: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
19καὶ εὐλόγησε τὸν ¨Αβραμ καὶ εἶπεν· εὐλογημένος ¨Αβραμ τῷ Θεῷ τῷ ὑψίστῳ, ὃς ἔκτισε τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν.
20and blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of everything.
20καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ὕψιστος, ὃς παρέδωκε τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποχειρίους σοι. καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ¨Αβραμ δεκάτην ἀπὸ πάντων.
21The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, but take the goods for yourself.”
21εἶπε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων πρὸς ¨Αβραμ· δός μοι τοὺς ἄνδρας, τὴν δὲ ἵππον λάβε σεαυτῷ.
22But Abram replied to the king of Sodom, “I have raised my hand to the LORD God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth,
22εἶπε δὲ ¨Αβραμ πρὸς τὸν βασιλέα Σοδόμων· ἐκτενῶ τὴν χεῖρά μου πρὸς Κύριον τὸν Θεὸν τὸν ὕψιστον, ὃς ἔκτισε τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ τὴν γῆν,
23that I will not accept even a thread, or a strap of a sandal, or anything that belongs to you, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’
23εἰ ἀπὸ σπαρτίου ἕως σφυρωτῆρος ὑποδήματος λήψομαι ἀπὸ πάντων τῶν σῶν, ἵνα μὴ εἴπῃς, ὅτι ἐγὼ ἐπλούτισα τὸν ¨Αβραμ·
24I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share for the men who went with me—Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. They may take their portion.”
24πλὴν ὧν ἔφαγον οἱ νεανίσκοι καὶ τῆς μερίδος τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν συμπορευθέντων μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, Ἐσχώλ, Αὐνάν, Μαμβρῆ, οὗτοι λήψονται μερίδα.
