1 A conteceu nos dias de Anrafel, rei de Sinar, Arioque, rei de Elasar, Quedorlaomer, rei de Elão, e Tidal, rei de Goiim,

And it came about in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of Goiim,

2 q ue estes fizeram guerra a Bera, rei de Sodoma, a Birsa, rei de Gomorra, a Sinabe, rei de Admá, a Semeber, rei de Zeboim, e ao rei de Belá (esta é Zoar).

that 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 (that is, Zoar).

3 T odos estes se ajuntaram no vale de Sidim (que é o Mar Salgado).

All these came as allies to the valley of Siddim (that is, the Salt Sea).

4 D oze anos haviam servido a Quedorlaomer, mas ao décimo terceiro ano rebelaram-se.

Twelve years they had served Chedorlaomer, but the thirteenth year they rebelled.

5 P or isso, ao décimo quarto ano veio Quedorlaomer, e os reis que estavam com ele, e feriram aos refains em Asterote-Carnaim, aos zuzins em Hão, aos emins em Savé-Quiriataim,

In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him, came and defeated the Rephaim in Ashteroth-karnaim and the Zuzim in Ham and the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim,

6 e aos horeus no seu monte Seir, até El-Parã, que está junto ao deserto.

and the Horites in their Mount Seir, as far as El-paran, which is by the wilderness.

7 D epois voltaram e vieram a En-Mispate (que é Cades), e feriram toda a terra dos amalequitas, e também dos amorreus, que habitavam em Hazazom-Tamar.

Then they turned back and came to En-mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and conquered all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, who lived in Hazazon-tamar.

8 E ntão saíram os reis de Sodoma, de Gomorra, de Admá, de Zeboim e de Belá (esta é Zoar), e ordenaram batalha contra eles no vale de Sidim,

And the king of Sodom and the king of Gomorrah and the king of Admah and the king of Zeboiim and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) came out; and they arrayed for battle against them in the valley of Siddim,

9 c ontra Quedorlaomer, rei de Elão, Tidal, rei de Goiim, Anrafel, rei de Sinar, e Arioque, rei de Elasar; quatro reis contra cinco.

against Chedorlaomer king of Elam and Tidal king of Goiim and Amraphel king of Shinar and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five.

10 O ra, o vale de Sidim estava cheio de poços de betume; e fugiram os reis de Sodoma e de Gomorra, e caíram ali; e os restantes fugiram para o monte.

Now the valley of Siddim was full of tar pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and they fell into them. But those who survived fled to the hill country.

11 T omaram, então, todos os bens de Sodoma e de Gomorra com todo o seu mantimento, e se foram.

Then they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food supply, and departed.

12 T omaram também a Ló, filho do irmão de Abrão, que habitava em Sodoma, e os bens dele, e partiram.

They also took Lot, Abram’s nephew, and his possessions and departed, for he was living in Sodom.

13 E ntão veio um que escapara, e o contou a Abrão, o hebreu. Ora, este habitava junto dos carvalhos de Manre, o amorreu, irmão de Escol e de Aner; estes eram aliados de Abrão.

Then a fugitive came and told Abram the Hebrew. Now he was living by the oaks of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner, and these were allies with Abram.

14 O uvindo, pois, Abrão que seu irmão estava preso, levou os seus homens treinados, nascidos em sua casa, em número de trezentos e dezoito, e perseguiu os reis até Dã.

When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he led out his trained men, born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and went in pursuit as far as Dan.

15 D ividiu-se contra eles de noite, ele e os seus servos, e os feriu, perseguindo-os até Hobá, que fica ã esquerda de Damasco.

He divided his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and defeated them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is north of Damascus.

16 A ssim tornou a trazer todos os bens, e tornou a trazer também a Ló, seu irmão, e os bens dele, e também as mulheres e o povo.

He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative Lot with his possessions, and also the women, and the people. God’s Promise to Abram

17 D epois que Abrão voltou de ferir a Quedorlaomer e aos reis que estavam com ele, saiu-lhe ao encontro o rei de Sodoma, no vale de Savé (que é o vale do rei).

Then after his return from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).

18 O ra, Melquisedeque, rei de Salém, trouxe pão e vinho; pois era sacerdote do Deus Altíssimo;

And Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine; now he was a priest of God Most High.

19 e abençoou a Abrão, dizendo: bendito seja Abrão pelo Deus Altíssimo, o Criador dos céus e da terra!

He blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;

20 E bendito seja o Deus Altíssimo, que entregou os teus inimigos nas tuas mãos! E Abrão deu-lhe o dízimo de tudo.

And blessed be God Most High, Who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” He gave him a tenth of all.

21 E ntão o rei de Sodoma disse a Abrão: Dá-me a mim as pessoas; e os bens toma-os para ti.

The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give the people to me and take the goods for yourself.”

22 A brão, porém, respondeu ao rei de Sodoma: Levanto minha mão ao Senhor, o Deus Altíssimo, o Criador dos céus e da terra,

Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have sworn to the Lord God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,

23 j urando que não tomarei coisa alguma de tudo o que é teu, nem um fio, nem uma correia de sapato, para que não digas: Eu enriqueci a Abrão;

that I will not take a thread or a sandal thong or anything that is yours, for fear you would say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’

24 s alvo tão somente o que os mancebos comeram, e a parte que toca aos homens Aner, Escol e Manre, que foram comigo; que estes tomem a sua parte.

I will take nothing except what the young men have eaten, and the share of the men who went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their share.”
