1 Επί των ημερών δε του Αμαρφέλ βασιλέως Σενναάρ, του Αριώχ βασιλέως Ελλασάρ, του Χοδολλογομόρ βασιλέως Ελάμ, και του Θαργάλ βασιλέως εθνών,

1 Y ACONTECIÓ en los días de Amraphel, rey de Shinar, Arioch, rey de Elazar, Chêdorlaomer, rey de Elá, y Tidal, rey de naciones,

1 In the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar; Arioch, king of Ellasar; Chedorlaomer, king of Elam; and Tidal, king of Goiim,

2 έκαμον αυτοί πόλεμον μετά του Βερά βασιλέως Σοδόμων, και του Βαρσά βασιλέως Γομόρρων, του Σενναάβ βασιλέως Αδαμά, και του Σεμοβόρ βασιλέως Σεβωείμ, και του βασιλέως της Βελά· αύτη είναι η Σηγώρ.

2 Que éstos hicieron guerra contra Bera, rey de Sodoma, y contra Birsha, rey de Gomorra, y contra Shinab, rey de Adma, y contra Shemeber, rey de Zeboim, y contra el rey de Bela, la cual es Zoar.

2 they made war with Bera, king of Sodom; Birsha, king of Gomorrah; Shinab, king of Admah; Shemeber, king of Zeboiim; and the king of Bela (also called Zoar).

3 Πάντες ούτοι ηνώθησαν ομού εν τη κοιλάδι Σιδδίμ ήτις είναι η αλμυρά θάλασσα.

3 Todos estos se juntaron en el valle de Siddim, que es el mar salado.

3 All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (also called the Salt Sea).

4 Δώδεκα έτη εδούλευον εις τον Χοδολλογομόρ· εν δε τω δεκάτω τρίτω απεστάτησαν.

4 Doce años habían servido á Chêdorlaomer, y al décimotercio año se rebelaron.

4 They served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

5 Και εν τω δεκάτω τετάρτω έτει ήλθεν ο Χοδολλογομόρ και οι βασιλείς οι μετ' αυτού, και επάταξαν τους Ραφαείμ εν Ασταρώθ-καρναΐμ, και τους Ζουζείμ εν Αμ, και τους Εμμαίους εν Σαυή-κιριαθαΐμ,

5 Y en el año décimocuarto vino Chêdorlaomer, y los reyes que estaban de su parte, y derrotaron á los Raphaitas en Ashteroth-carnaim, á los Zuzitas en Ham, y á los Emitas en Shave-Kiriataim.

5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him came and struck the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham, the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,

6 και τους Χορραίους εν τω όρει αυτών Σηείρ έως της πεδιάδος Φαράν, ήτις είναι εν τη ερήμω.

6 Y á los Horeos en el monte de Seir, hasta la llanura de Parán, que está junto al desierto.

6 and the Horites in their Mount Seir, to El Paran, which is by the wilderness.

7 Επέστρεψαν δε και ήλθον εις την Εν-μισπάτ ήτις είναι η Κάδης· και επάταξαν πάντα τον τόπον του Αμαλήκ, και τους Αμορραίους τους κατοικούντας εν Ασασών-θαμάρ.

7 Y volvieron, y vinieron á Emmisphat, que es Cades, y devastaron todas las haciendas de los Amalecitas, y también al Amorrheo, que habitaba en Hazezón-tamar.

7 They returned, and came to En Mishpat (also called Kadesh), and struck all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that lived in Hazazon Tamar.

8 Εξήλθε δε ο βασιλεύς των Σοδόμων, και ο βασιλεύς των Γομόρρων, και ο βασιλεύς της Αδαμά, και ο βασιλεύς των Σεβωείμ, και ο βασιλεύς της Βελά, ήτις είναι η Σηγώρ· και συνεκρότησαν μάχην μετ' αυτών εν τη κοιλάδι Σιδδίμ,

8 Y salió el rey de Sodoma, y el rey de Gomorra, y el rey de Adma, y el rey de Zeboim, y el rey de Bela, que es Zoar, y ordenaron contra ellos batalla en el valle de Siddim;

8 The king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (also called Zoar) went out; and they set the battle in array against them in the valley of Siddim

9 μετά του Χοδολλογομόρ βασιλέως Ελάμ, και του Θαργάλ βασιλέως εθνών, και του Αμραφέλ βασιλέως Σενναάρ, και του Αριώχ βασιλέως Ελλασάρ· τέσσαρες βασιλείς προς πέντε.

9 [Es á saber], contra Chêdorlaomer, rey de Elam, y Tidal, rey de naciones, y Amraphel, rey de Shinar, y Arioch, rey de Elasar; cuatro reyes contra cinco.

9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five.

10 Η δε κοιλάς Σιδδίμ ήτο πλήρης φρεάτων ασφάλτου· ετράπησαν δε εις φυγήν οι βασιλείς των Σοδόμων και των Γομόρρων και έπεσον εκεί· οι δε εναπολειφθέντες έφυγον εις το όρος.

10 Y el valle de Siddim estaba lleno de pozos de betún: y huyeron el rey de Sodoma y el de Gomorra, y cayeron allí; y los demás huyeron al monte.

10 Now the valley of Siddim was full of tar pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and some fell there. Those who remained fled to the hills.

11 Και έλαβον πάντα τα υπάρχοντα των Σοδόμων και των Γομόρρων και πάσαν αυτών την ζωοτροφίαν, και ανεχώρησαν.

11 Y tomaron toda la riqueza de Sodoma y de Gomorra, y todas sus vituallas, y se fueron.

11 They took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way.

12 Έλαβον δε και τον Λωτ υιόν του αδελφού του Άβραμ, όστις κατώκει εν Σοδόμοις, και τα υπάρχοντα αυτού, και ανεχώρησαν.

12 Tomaron también á Lot, hijo del hermano de Abram, que moraba en Sodoma, y su hacienda, y se fueron.

12 They took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.

13 Υπήγε δε τις εκ των διασωθέντων και απήγγειλε τούτο προς τον Άβραμ τον Εβραίον, όστις κατώκει πλησίον των δρυών Μαμβρή του Αμορραίου, αδελφού του Εσχώλ, και αδελφού του Ανήρ, οίτινες ήσαν σύμμαχοι του Άβραμ.

13 Y vino uno de los que escaparon, y denunciólo á Abram el Hebreo, que habitaba en el valle de Mamre Amorrheo, hermano de Eschôl y hermano de Aner, los cuales estaban confederados con Abram.

13 One who had escaped came and told Abram, the Hebrew. At that time, he lived by the oaks of Mamre, the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner. They were allies of Abram.

14 Ακούσας δε ο Άβραμ ότι ηχμαλωτίσθη ο αδελφός αυτού, εφώπλισε τριακοσίους δεκαοκτώ εκ των δούλων αυτού, των γεννηθέντων εν τη οικία αυτού, και κατεδίωξεν οπίσω αυτών έως Δαν.

14 Y oyó Abram que su hermano estaba prisionero, y armó sus criados, los criados de su casa, trescientos dieciocho, y siguiólos hasta Dan.

14 When Abram heard that his relative was taken captive, he led out his three hundred eighteen trained men, born in his house, and pursued as far as Dan.

15 Και διαιρέσας τους εαυτού ώρμησε κατ' αυτών την νύκτα, αυτός και οι δούλοι αυτού, και επάταξεν αυτούς, και κατεδίωξεν αυτούς έως Χοβά ήτις είναι κατά τα αριστερά της Δαμασκού.

15 Y derramóse sobre ellos de noche él y sus siervos, é hiriólos, y fuélos siguiendo hasta Hobah, que está á la izquierda de Damasco.

15 He divided himself against them by night, he and his servants, and struck them, and pursued them to Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.

16 Και επανέφερε πάντα τα υπάρχοντα και έτι επανέφερε Λωτ τον αδελφόν αυτού και τα υπάρχοντα αυτού, έτι δε και τας γυναίκας και τον λαόν.

16 Y recobró todos los bienes, y también á Lot su hermano y su hacienda, y también las mujeres y gente.

16 He brought back all the goods, and also brought back his relative Lot and his goods, and the women also, and the other people.

17 Εξήλθε δε ο βασιλεύς των Σοδόμων εις συνάντησιν αυτού, αφού επέστρεψεν από της καταστροφής του Χοδολλογομόρ και των βασιλέων των μετ' αυτού, εν τη κοιλάδι Σαυή ήτις είναι η κοιλάς του βασιλέως.

17 Y salió el rey de Sodoma á recibirlo, cuando volvía de la derrota de Chêdorlaomer y de los reyes que con él estaban, al valle de Shave, que es el valle del Rey.

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

18 Και ο Μελχισεδέκ βασιλεύς Σαλήμ έφερεν έξω άρτον και οίνον· ήτο δε ιερεύς του Θεού του Υψίστου.

18 Entonces Melchîsedec, rey de Salem, sacó pan y vino; el cual era sacerdote del Dios alto;

18 Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High.

19 Και ευλόγησεν αυτόν και είπεν, Ευλογημένος ο Άβραμ παρά του Θεού του Υψίστου, όστις έκτισε τον ουρανόν και την γήν·

19 Y bendíjole, y dijo: Bendito sea Abram del Dios alto, poseedor de los cielos y de la tierra;

19 He blessed him, and said, “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth.

20 και ευλογητός ο Θεός ο Ύψιστος όστις παρέδωκε τους εχθρούς σου εις την χείρα σου. Και Άβραμ έδωκεν εις αυτόν δέκατον από πάντων.

20 Y bendito sea el Dios alto, que entregó tus enemigos en tu mano. Y dióle [Abram] los diezmos de todo.

20 Blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Abram gave him a tenth of all.

21 Και είπεν ο βασιλεύς των Σοδόμων προς τον Άβραμ, Δος μοι τους ανθρώπους, τα δε υπάρχοντα λάβε εις σεαυτόν.

21 Entonces el rey de Sodoma dijo á Abram: Dame las personas, y toma para ti la hacienda.

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

22 Είπε δε ο Άβραμ προς τον βασιλέα των Σοδόμων, Εγώ ύψωσα την χείρα μου προς Κύριον, τον Θεόν τον Ύψιστον, όστις έκτισε τον ουρανόν και την γην,

22 Y respondió Abram al rey de Sodoma: He alzado mi mano á Jehová Dios alto, poseedor de los cielos y de la tierra,

22 Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have lifted up my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth,

23 ότι δεν θέλω λάβει από πάντων των ιδικών σου από κλωστής έως λωρίου υποδήματος, διά να μη είπης, Εγώ επλούτισα τον Αβραμ·

23 Que desde un hilo hasta la correa de un calzado, nada tomaré de todo lo que es tuyo, porque no digas: Yo enriquecí á Abram:

23 that I will not take a thread nor a sandal strap nor anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’

24 εκτός μόνον εκείνου το οποίον έφαγον οι νέοι, και της μερίδος των ανθρώπων των ελθόντων μετ' εμού, του Ανήρ του Εσχώλ και του Μαμβρή, ούτοι ας λάβωσι την μερίδα αυτών.

24 Sacando solamente lo que comieron los mancebos, y la porción de los varones que fueron conmigo, Aner, Eschôl, y Mamre; los cuales tomarán su parte.

24 I will accept nothing from you except 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.”

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

Quotes verse 14:22 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Preface)
For faith towards God justifies a man; and therefore he said, "I will stretch forth my hand to the most high God, who made the heaven and the earth." All these truths, however, do those holding perverse opinions endeavour to overthrow, because of one passage, which they certainly do not understand correctly.

Yea, the patriarch himself we admire for this, that in his own person he ran to the herd, and snatched up the calf, and that, when he had three hundred and eighteen servants born in his house. But now some are filled with so much pride, as to do these things by servants, and not to be ashamed.
