Genesis 14
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Septuagint (Greek Old Testament), second edition
1And it came to pass in the days of 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
2that they 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 — the same 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).
3All these came as allies unto the vale of Siddim — the same is the Salt Sea.
3πάντες οὗτοι συνεφώνησαν ἐπὶ τὴν φάραγγα τὴν ἁλυκὴν (αὕτη ἡ θάλασσα τῶν ἁλῶν).
4Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
4δώδεκα ἔτη αὐτοὶ ἐδούλευσαν τῷ Χοδολλογομόρ, τῷ δὲ τρισκαιδεκάτῳ ἔτει ἀπέστησαν.
5And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim, and the Zuzim in Ham, and the Emim 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 their mount Seir, unto El-paran, which is by the wilderness.
6καὶ τοὺς Χορραίους τοὺς ἐν τοῖς ὄρεσι Σηείρ, ἕως τῆς τερεβίνθου τῆς Φαράν, ἥ ἐστιν ἐν τῇ ἐρήμῳ.
7And they turned back, and came to En-mishpat — the same is Kadesh — and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt 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.
8And 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 set the battle in array against them in the vale 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, and Tidal king of Goiim, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the 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 vale of Siddim was full of slime pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell there, and they that remained fled to the mountain.
10ἡ δὲ κοιλὰς ἡ ἁλυκή, φρέατα ἀσφάλτου. ἔφυγε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων καὶ βασιλεὺς Γομόρρας καὶ ἐνέπεσαν ἐκεῖ, οἱ δὲ καταλειφθέντες εἰς τὴν ὀρεινὴν ἔφυγον.
11And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.
11ἔλαβον δὲ τὴν ἵππον πᾶσαν τὴν Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόρρας καὶ πάντα τὰ βρώματα αὐτῶν καὶ ἀπῆλθον.
12And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
12ἔλαβον δὲ καὶ τὸν Λὼτ τὸν υἱὸν τοῦ ἀδελφοῦ ¨Αβραμ καὶ τὴν ἀποσκευὴν αὐτοῦ καὶ ἀπῴχοντο· ἦν γὰρ κατοικῶν ἐν Σοδόμοις.
13And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew — now he dwelt by the terebinths of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner; and these were confederate with 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 brother was taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued 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.
15And he divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand 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.
16And he brought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and 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.
17And the king of Sodom went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him, at the vale of Shaveh — the same is the King's Vale.
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).
18And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine; and he was priest of God the Most High.
18καὶ Μελχισεδὲκ βασιλεὺς Σαλὴμ ἐξήνεγκεν ἄρτους καὶ οἶνον· ἦν δὲ ἱερεὺς τοῦ Θεοῦ τοῦ ὑψίστου.
19And he blessed him, and said: 'Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Maker 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 the Most High, who hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand.' And he gave him a tenth of all.
20καὶ εὐλογητὸς ὁ Θεὸς ὁ ὕψιστος, ὃς παρέδωκε τοὺς ἐχθρούς σου ὑποχειρίους σοι. καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτῷ ¨Αβραμ δεκάτην ἀπὸ πάντων.
21And the king of Sodom said unto Abram: 'Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.'
21εἶπε δὲ βασιλεὺς Σοδόμων πρὸς ¨Αβραμ· δός μοι τοὺς ἄνδρας, τὴν δὲ ἵππον λάβε σεαυτῷ.
22And Abram said to the king of Sodom: 'I have lifted up my hand unto the LORD, God Most High, Maker 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 take a thread nor a shoe-latchet nor aught that is thine, lest thou shouldest 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·
24save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre, let them take their portion.'
24πλὴν ὧν ἔφαγον οἱ νεανίσκοι καὶ τῆς μερίδος τῶν ἀνδρῶν τῶν συμπορευθέντων μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ, Ἐσχώλ, Αὐνάν, Μαμβρῆ, οὗτοι λήψονται μερίδα.
