1 And it came to pass in the days <03117> of Amraphel <0569> king <04428> of Shinar <08152>, Arioch <0746> king <04428> of Ellasar <0495>, Chedorlaomer <03540> king <04428> of Elam <05867>, and Tidal <08413> king <04428> of nations <01471>;
2 That these made <06213> (8804) war <04421> with <0854> Bera <01298> king <04428> of Sodom <05467>, and with Birsha <01306> king <04428> of Gomorrah <06017>, Shinab <08134> king <04428> of Admah <0126>, and Shemeber <08038> king <04428> of Zeboiim <06636>, and the king <04428> of Bela <01106>, which is <01931> Zoar <06820> .
3 All these were joined together <02266> (8804) in the vale <06010> of Siddim <07708>, which <01931> is the salt <04417> sea <03220>.
4 Twelve <06240> <08147> years <08141> they served <05647> (8804) <0853> Chedorlaomer <03540> , and in the thirteenth <07969> <06240> year <08141> they rebelled <04775> (8804).
5 And in the fourteenth <06240> <0702> year <08141> came <0935> (8804) Chedorlaomer <03540>, and the kings <04428> that were with him, and smote <05221> (8686) the Rephaims <07497> in Ashteroth Karnaim <06255>, and the Zuzims <02104> in Ham <01990>, and the Emims <0368> in Shaveh Kiriathaim <07741>,
6 And the Horites <02752> in their mount <02042> Seir <08165>, unto Elparan <0364>, which is by <05921> the wilderness <04057>.
7 And they returned <07725> (8799), and came <0935> (8799) to <0413> Enmishpat <05880>, which is Kadesh <06946>, and smote <05221> (8686) all the country <07704> of the Amalekites <06003>, and also the Amorites <0567> , that dwelt <03427> (8802) in Hazezontamar <02688>.
8 And there went out <03318> (8799) the king <04428> of Sodom <05467>, and the king <04428> of Gomorrah <06017> , and the king <04428> of Admah <0126>, and the king <04428> of Zeboiim <06636>, and the king <04428> of Bela <01106> (the same <01931> is Zoar <06820>;) and they joined <06186> (8799) battle <04421> with them in the vale <06010> of Siddim <07708>;
9 With Chedorlaomer <03540> the king <04428> of Elam <05867>, and with Tidal <08413> king <04428> of nations <01471>, and Amraphel <0569> king <04428> of Shinar <08152>, and Arioch <0746> king <04428> of Ellasar <0495>; four <0702> kings <04428> with five <02568>.
10 And the vale <06010> of Siddim <07708> was full of <0875> slimepits <0875> <02564>; and the kings <04428> of Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017> fled <05127> (8799), and fell <05307> (8799) there; and they that remained <07604> (8737) fled <05127> (8804) to the mountain <02022>.
11 And they took <03947> (8799) all the goods <07399> of Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017>, and all their victuals <0400>, and went their way <03212> (8799).
12 And they took <03947> (8799) Lot <03876>, Abram#s <087> brother#s <0251> son <01121>, who dwelt <03427> (8802) in Sodom <05467>, and his goods <07399>, and departed <03212> (8799).
13 And there came <0935> (8799) one that had escaped <06412>, and told <05046> (8686) Abram <087> the Hebrew <05680>; for he dwelt <07931> (8802) in the plain <0436> of Mamre <04471> the Amorite <0567>, brother <0251> of Eshcol <0812>, and brother <0251> of Aner <06063>: and these were confederate <01167> <01285> with Abram <087> .
14 And when Abram <087> heard <08085> (8799) that his brother <0251> was taken captive <07617> (8738) , he armed <07324> (8686) his trained <02593> servants, born <03211> in his own house <01004>, three <07969> hundred <03967> and eighteen <06240> <08083>, and pursued <07291> (8799) them unto Dan <01835>.
15 And he divided <02505> (8735) himself against them, he and his servants <05650>, by night <03915>, and smote <05221> (8686) them, and pursued <07291> (8799) them unto Hobah <02327>, which is on the left hand <08040> of Damascus <01834> .
16 And he brought back <07725> (8686) all the goods <07399>, and also brought again <07725> (8689) his brother <0251> Lot <03876>, and his goods <07399>, and the women <0802> also, and the people <05971>.
17 And the king <04428> of Sodom <05467> went out <03318> (8799) to meet <07125> (8800) him after <0310> his return <07725> (8800) from the slaughter <05221> (8687) of Chedorlaomer <03540>, and of the kings <04428> that were with him, at the valley <06010> of Shaveh <07740>, which <01931> is the king#s <04428> dale <06010>.
18 And Melchizedek <04442> king <04428> of Salem <08004> brought forth <03318> (8689) bread <03899> and wine <03196>: and he was the priest <03548> of the most high <05945> God <0410>.
19 And he blessed <01288> (8762) him, and said <0559> (8799), Blessed <01288> (8803) be Abram <087> of the most high <05945> God <0410>, possessor <07069> (8802) of heaven <08064> and earth <0776>:
20 And blessed <01288> (8803) be the most high <05945> God <0410>, which hath delivered <04042> (8765) thine enemies <06862> into thy hand <03027>. And he gave <05414> (8799) him tithes <04643> of all.
21 And the king <04428> of Sodom <05467> said <0559> (8799) unto Abram <087>, Give <05414> (8798) me the persons <05315>, and take <03947> (8798) the goods <07399> to thyself.
22 And Abram <087> said <0559> (8799) to the king <04428> of Sodom <05467>, I have lift up <07311> (8689) mine hand <03027> unto the LORD <03068>, the most high <05945> God <0410>, the possessor <07069> (8802) of heaven <08064> and earth <0776>,
23 That I will not <0518> take from a thread <02339> even to a shoelatchet <05275> <08288>, and that I will not <0518> take <03947> (8799) any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say <0559> (8799), I have made <06238> <00> Abram <087> rich <06238> (8689):
24 Save <01107> only that which <0834> the young men <05288> have eaten <0398> (8804), and the portion <02506> of the men <0582> which went <01980> (8804) with <0854> me, Aner <06063>, Eshcol <0812>, and Mamre <04471> ; let them <01992> take <03947> (8799) their portion <02506>.
