18 And (A)Melchizedek the king of Salem brought out (B)bread and wine; now he was a (C)priest of [a]God Most High. 19 And he blessed him and said,

“Blessed be Abram of [b]God Most High,
[c](D)Possessor of heaven and earth;
20 And blessed be [d]God Most High,
Who has handed over your enemies to you.”

And (E)he gave him a tenth of everything. 21 Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give the [e]people to me and take the possessions for yourself.”
