[1] In the days of Amraphel, king of Shinar; Arioch, king of Ellasar; Chedorlaomer, king of Elam; and Tidal, king of Goiim, [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] All these joined together in the valley of Siddim (also called the Salt Sea). [4] They served Chedorlaomer for twelve years, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled. [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] and the Horites in their Mount Seir, to El Paran, which is by the wilderness. [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] 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] against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of Goiim, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings against the five. [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] They took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their food, and went their way. [12] They took Lot, Abram’s brother’s son, who lived in Sodom, and his goods, and departed. [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] 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] 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] 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] 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] Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High. [19] He blessed him, and said, “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth. [20] Blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.”Abram gave him a tenth of all. [21] The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, and take the goods for yourself.” [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] 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] 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.”

[1] And it came to pass H1961 in the days H3117 of Amraphel H569 king H4428 of Shinar, H8152 Arioch H746 king H4428 of Ellasar, H495 Chedorlaomer H3540 king H4428 of Elam, H5867 and Tidal H8413 king H4428 of nations; H1471 [2] that these made H6213 war H4421 with H854 Bera H1298 king H4428 of Sodom, H5467 and with H854 Birsha H1306 king H4428 of Gomorrah, H6017 Shinab H8134 king H4428 of Admah, H126 and Shemeber H8038 king H4428 of Zeboiim, H6636 and the king H4428 of Bela, H1106 which H1931 is Zoar. H6820 [3] All H3605 these H428 were joined together H2266 in H413 the vale H6010 of Siddim, H7708 which H1931 is the salt H4417 sea. H3220 [4] Twelve H8147 H6240 years H8141 they served H5647 H853 Chedorlaomer, H3540 and in the thirteenth H7969 H6240 year H8141 they rebelled. H4775 [5] And in the fourteenth H702 H6240 year H8141 came H935 Chedorlaomer, H3540 and the kings H4428 that H834 were with him, H854 and smote H5221 H853 the Rephaims H7497 in Ashteroth Karnaim, H6255 and H853 the Zuzims H2104 in Ham, H1990 and H853 the Emims H368 in Shaveh H7740 Kiriathaim, H7156§ [6] and H853 the Horites H2752 in their mount H2022 Seir, H8165 unto H5704 El-paran, H364§ which H834 is by H5921 the wilderness. H4057 [7] And they returned, H7725 and came H935 to H413 En-mishpat, H5880 which H1931 is Kadesh, H6946 and smote H5221 H853 all H3605 the country H7704 of the Amalekites, H6003 and also H1571 H853 the Amorites, H567 that dwelt H3427 in Hazezon-tamar. H2688 [8] And there went out H3318 the king H4428 of Sodom, H5467 and the king H4428 of Gomorrah, H6017 and the king H4428 of Admah, H126 and the king H4428 of Zeboiim, H6636 and the king H4428 of Bela H1106 (the same H1931 is Zoar;) H6820 and they joined H6186 battle H4421 with them H854 in the vale H6010 of Siddim; H7708 [9] with H854 Chedorlaomer H3540 the king H4428 of Elam, H5867 and with Tidal H8413 king H4428 of nations, H1471 and Amraphel H569 king H4428 of Shinar, H8152 and Arioch H746 king H4428 of Ellasar; H495 four H702 kings H4428 with H854 five. H2568 [10] And the vale H6010 of Siddim H7708 was full of slimepits; H875 H875 H2564 and the kings H4428 of Sodom H5467 and Gomorrah H6017 fled, H5127 and fell H5307 there; H8033 and they that remained H7604 fled H5127 to the mountain. H2022 [11] And they took H3947 H853 all H3605 the goods H7399 of Sodom H5467 and Gomorrah, H6017 and H853 all H3605 their victuals, H400 and went their way. H3212 [12] And they took H3947 H853 Lot, H3876 Abram’s H87 brother’s H251 son, H1121 who H1931 dwelt H3427 in Sodom, H5467 and H853 his goods, H7399 and departed. H3212 [13] And there came H935 one that had escaped, H6412 and told H5046 Abram H87 the Hebrew; H5680 for he H1931 dwelt H7931 in the plain H436 of Mamre H4471 the Amorite, H567 brother H251 of Eshcol, H812 and brother H251 of Aner: H6063 and these H1992 were confederate H1167 H1285 with Abram. H87 [14] And when Abram H87 heard H8085 that H3588 his brother H251 was taken captive, H7617 he armed H7324§ H853 his trained H2593§ servants, born H3211 in his own house, H1004 three H7969 hundred H3967 and eighteen, H8083 H6240 and pursued H7291 them unto H5704 Dan. H1835 [15] And he divided himself H2505 against them, H5921 he H1931 and his servants, H5650 by night, H3915 and smote them, H5221 and pursued them H7291 unto H5704 Hobah, H2327 which H834 is on the left hand H8040 of Damascus. H1834 [16] And he brought back H7725 H853 all H3605 the goods, H7399 and also H1571 brought again H7725 his brother H251 H853 Lot, H3876 and his goods, H7399 and H1571 H853 the women H802 also, H1571 and H853 the people. H5971 [17] And the king H4428 of Sodom H5467 went out H3318 to meet him H7125 after H310 his return H7725 from the slaughter H5221 H853 of Chedorlaomer, H3540 and H853 of the kings H4428 that H834 were with him, H854 at H413 the valley H6010 of Shaveh, H7740 which H1931 is the king’s H4428 dale. H6010 [18] And Melchizedek H4442 H4442 king H4428 of Salem H8004 brought forth H3318 bread H3899 and wine: H3196 and he H1931 was the priest H3548 of the most high H5945 God. H410 [19] And he blessed him, H1288 and said, H559 Blessed be H1288 Abram H87 of the most high H5945 God, H410 possessor H7069 of heaven H8064 and earth: H776 [20] and blessed be H1288 the most high H5945 God, H410 which H834 hath delivered H4042 thine enemies H6862 into thy hand. H3027 And he gave H5414 him tithes H4643 of all. H3605 [21] And the king H4428 of Sodom H5467 said H559 unto H413 Abram, H87 Give H5414 me the persons, H5315§ and take H3947 the goods H7399 to thyself. [22] And Abram H87 said H559 to H413 the king H4428 of Sodom, H5467 I have lift up H7311 mine hand H3027 unto H413 the Lord, H3068 the most high H5945 God, H410 the possessor H7069 of heaven H8064 and earth, H776 [23] that I will not H518 take from a thread H2339 even to H5704 a shoelatchet, H8288 H5275 and that I will not H518 take H3947 any thing H3605 that H834 is thine, lest H3808 thou shouldest say, H559 I H589 have made H6238 H853 Abram H87 rich: H6238 [24] save H1107 only H7535 that which H834 the young men H5288 have eaten, H398 and the portion H2506 of the men H582 which H834 went H1980 with me, H854 Aner, H6063 Eshcol, H812 and Mamre; H4471 let H3947 them H1992 take H3947 their portion.
