1 And it came to pass1961 in the days3117 of Amraphel569 king4428 of Shinar,8152 Arioch746 king4428 of Ellasar,495 Chedorlaomer3540 king4428 of Elam,5867 and Tidal8413 king4428 of nations;1471

2 That these made6213 war4421 with854 Bera1298 king4428 of Sodom,5467 and with854 Birsha1306 king4428 of Gomorrah,6017 Shinab8134 king4428 of Admah,126 and Shemeber8038 king4428 of Zeboiim,6636 and the king4428 of Bela,1106 which1931 is Zoar.6820

3 All3605 these428 were joined together2266 in413 the vale6010 of Siddim,7708 which1931 is the salt4417 sea.3220

4 Twelve8147 6240 years8141 they served5647 853 Chedorlaomer,3540 and in the thirteenth7969 6240 year8141 they rebelled.4775

5 And in the fourteenth702 6240 year8141 came935 Chedorlaomer,3540 and the kings4428 that834 were with854 him, and smote5221 853 the Rephaims7497 in Ashteroth Karnaim,6255 and the Zuzims2104 in Ham,1990 and the Emims368 in Shaveh Kiriathaim,7741

6 And the Horites2752 in their mount2042 Seir,8165 unto5704 El-paran,364 which834 is by5921 the wilderness.4057

7 And they returned,7725 and came935 to413 En-mishpat,5880 which1931 is Kadesh,6946 and smote5221 853 all3605 the country7704 of the Amalekites,6003 and also1571 853 the Amorites,567 that dwelt3427 in Hazezon-tamar.2688

8 And there went out3318 the king4428 of Sodom,5467 and the king4428 of Gomorrah,6017 and the king4428 of Admah,126 and the king4428 of Zeboiim,6636 and the king4428 of Bela1106 (the same1931 is Zoar)6820 and they joined6186 battle4421 with854 them in the vale6010 of Siddim;7708

9 With854 Chedorlaomer3540 the king4428 of Elam,5867 and with Tidal8413 king4428 of nations,1471 and Amraphel569 king4428 of Shinar,8152 and Arioch746 king4428 of Ellasar;495 four702 kings4428 with854 five.2568

10 And the vale6010 of Siddim7708 was full of slime pits;875 875 2564 and the kings4428 of Sodom5467 and Gomorrah6017 fled,5127 and fell5307 there;8033 and they that remained7604 fled5127 to the mountain.2022

11 And they took3947 853 all3605 the goods7399 of Sodom5467 and Gomorrah,6017 and all3605 their victuals,400 and went their way.1980

12 And they took3947 853 Lot,3876 Abram's87 brother's251 son,1121 who1931 dwelt3427 in Sodom,5467 and his goods,7399 and departed.1980

13 And there came935 one that had escaped,6412 and told5046 Abram87 the Hebrew;5680 for he1931 dwelt7931 in the plain436 of Mamre4471 the Amorite,567 brother251 of Eshcol,812 and brother251 of Aner:6063 and these1992 were confederate1167 1285 with Abram.87

14 And when Abram87 heard8085 that3588 his brother251 was taken captive,7617 he armed7324 853 his trained2593 servants, born3211 in his own house,1004 three7969 hundred3967 and eighteen,8083 6240 and pursued7291 them unto5704 Dan.1835

15 And he divided himself2505 against5921 them, he1931 and his servants,5650 by night,3915 and smote5221 them, and pursued7291 them unto5704 Hobah,2327 which834 is on the left hand4480 8040 of Damascus.1834

16 And he brought back7725 853 all3605 the goods,7399 and also1571 brought again7725 his brother251 853 Lot,3876 and his goods,7399 and853 the women802 also,1571 and the people.5971

17 And the king4428 of Sodom5467 went out3318 to meet7125 him after310 his return7725 from the slaughter4480 5221 of853 Chedorlaomer,3540 and of the kings4428 that834 were with854 him, at413 the valley6010 of Shaveh,7740 which1931 is the king's4428 dale.6010

18 And Melchizedek4442 king4428 of Salem8004 brought forth3318 bread3899 and wine:3196 and he1931 was the priest3548 of the most high5945 God.410

19 And he blessed1288 him, and said,559 Blessed1288 be Abram87 of the most high5945 God,410 possessor7069 of heaven8064 and earth: 776

20 And blessed1288 be the most high5945 God,410 which834 hath delivered4042 thine enemies6862 into thy hand.3027 And he gave5414 him tithes4643 of all.4480 3605

21 And the king4428 of Sodom5467 said559 unto413 Abram,87 Give5414 me the persons,5315 and take3947 the goods7399 to thyself.

22 And Abram87 said559 to413 the king4428 of Sodom,5467 I have lifted up7311 mine hand3027 unto413 the LORD,3068 the most high5945 God,410 the possessor7069 of heaven8064 and earth,776

23 That I will not518 take from a thread4480 2339 even to5704 a shoelatchet,8288 5275 and that I will not518 take3947 any thing4480 3605 that834 is thine, lest3808 thou shouldest say,559 I589 have made Abram rich:6238 853 87

24 Save1107 only7535 that which834 the young men5288 have eaten,398 and the portion2506 of the men376 which834 went1980 with854 me, Aner,6063 Eshcol,812 and Mamre;4471 let them1992 take3947 their portion.2506
