Genese 14:1-24
14 Mu matuku a Amalafele mukalenge wa Shinâ,+ Aliyoka mukalenge wa Elasâ, Kedôlaomê+ mukalenge wa Elama+ ne Tidala mukalenge wa Goyima,
2 bakalenge aba bakaluangana mvita ne Bela mukalenge wa Sodoma,+ Bîsha mukalenge wa Amola,+ Shinaba mukalenge wa Adema, Shemebê mukalenge wa Seboyima,+ ne mukalenge wa Bela, mmumue ne: Soâ.
3 Bakalenge bonso aba bakasangisha biluilu biabu mu Tshibandabanda* tshia Sidime,+ mmumue ne: Mbuu wa Mukele.*+
4 Bakavua benzele Kedôlaomê mudimu bidimu 12, kadi mu tshidimu tshia 13 bakamutombokela.
5 Nunku mu tshidimu tshia 14, Kedôlaomê ne bakalenge bavua nende bakaya, kutshimunabu bena Lefa mu Ashetelota-kânayima, bena Zusa mu Hama, bena Eme+ mu Shawe-kîyatayima,
6 ne bena Holi+ ku mukuna wabu wa Seî+ too ne ku Ele-palana udi ku tshipela.
7 Pashishe bakapingana, kuyabu ku Ene-mishapata, mmumue ne: Kadeshe,+ ne kukuatabu buloba buonso bua bena Amaleka,+ kabidi ne bena Amole+ bavua basombele mu Hasasona-tamâ.+
8 Nunku mukalenge wa Sodoma wakaya, kabidi ne mukalenge wa Amola, ne mukalenge wa Adema, ne mukalenge wa Seboyima, ne mukalenge wa Bela, mmumue ne: Soâ, bakela mualu wa mvita bua kuluangana nabu mu Tshibandabanda* tshia Sidime,
9 bua kuluangana ne Kedôlaomê mukalenge wa Elama, ne Tidala mukalenge wa Goyima, ne Amalafele mukalenge wa Shinâ, ne Aliyoka mukalenge wa Elasâ,+ bakalenge banayi baluisha batanu.
10 Kadi Tshibandabanda* tshia Sidime tshivua tshiuwule tente ne bina bia kabudimbu, nunku bakalenge ba Sodoma ne Amola bakajinga bua kunyema, kadi bakakulukamu, ne bantu bavua bashale bakanyemena ku buloba bua mikuna.
11 Pashishe batshimunyi bakangata bintu bionso bia mu Sodoma ne Amola ne biakudia biabu bionso, kuyabu.+
12 Bakakuata kabidi Lota muana wa muanabu ne Abalama uvua musombele mu Sodoma,+ ne bintu biende, bobu kutungunuka ne njila.
13 Pashishe muntu mukuabu uvua munyeme wakalua kumanyisha Abalama muena Ebelu. Tshikondo atshi uvua musombele* mu mitshi minene ya Mamale muena Amole,+ muanabu ne Eshekola ne Anele.+ Bobu aba bavua bena dia Abalama.
14 Nunku Abalama kumvua ne: bavua bakuate mulela wende.*+ Ke yeye kusangisha bantu bende balongesha mvita, bena mudimu 318 balelela mu nzubu muende, kubalondakajaye too ne ku Dana.+
15 Butuku, wakatapulula tshiluilu tshiende, ne yeye ne bena mudimu bende bakabela mvita, kubatshimunabu. Yeye kubalondakaja too ne ku Hoba udi ku nord kua Damaseke.
16 Wakanyenga bintu bionso, kunyengaye kabidi mulela wende Lota, ne bintu biende, ne bantu bakaji, ne bantu bakuabu.
17 Pavua Abalama mufume ku ditshimuna Kedôlaomê ne bakalenge bavuaye nabu, mukalenge wa Sodoma wakapatuka bua kusambakena ne Abalama mu Tshibandabanda* tshia Shawe, mmumue ne: Tshibandabanda tshia Mukalenge.+
18 Melekisedeke+ mukalenge wa Salema+ wakalua ne mampa ne mvinyo; yeye uvua muakuidi wa Nzambi Mutambe Bunene.+
19 Ke yeye kumubenesha wamba ne:
“Abalama abeneshibue kudi Nzambi Mutambe Bunene,Muenji wa diulu ne buloba;
20 Ne Nzambi Mutambe BuneneUdi mufile baluishi bebe mu tshianza tshiebe atumbishibue!”
Nunku Abalama wakamupesha tshia dikumi tshia bintu bionso.+
21 Pashishe mukalenge wa Sodoma wakambila Abalama ne: “Mpesha meme bantu,* wangate wewe bintu.”
22 Kadi Abalama wakambila mukalenge wa Sodoma ne: “Ndi njula tshianza tshianyi muulu, nditshipa kudi Yehowa Nzambi Mutambe Bunene, Muenji wa diulu ne buloba,
23 ne: tshiakuangata tshintu tshiebe nansha tshimue, kubangila anu ku buanda too ne ku nshinga wa sandala, bua kulu kuamba ne: ‘Meme ke uvua muvuije Abalama mubanji.’
24 Tshiakuangata tshintu nansha tshimue pa kumbusha bikadi bansongalume aba bamane kudia. Kadi bua tshitupa tshia kupesha bantu bavua baye nanyi, Anele, Eshekola, ne Mamale,+ bobu bangate tshiabu tshitupa.”
