La guerra de los reyes
14 Aconteció en los días de Amrafel, rey de Sinar(A), de Arioc, rey de Elasar, de Quedorlaomer, rey de Elam(B), y de Tidal, rey de Goyim[a], 2 que estos hicieron guerra a Bera, rey de Sodoma, y a Birsa, rey de Gomorra, a Sinab, rey de Adma(C), a Semeber, rey de Zeboim(D), y al rey de Bela, es decir, Zoar(E). 3 Estos últimos se reunieron como aliados[b] en el valle de Sidim(F), es decir, el mar Salado[c](G).
4 Doce años habían servido a Quedorlaomer, pero en el año trece se rebelaron. 5 En el año catorce, Quedorlaomer y los reyes que estaban con él, vinieron y derrotaron[d] a los refaítas(H) en Astarot Karnaim(I), a los zuzitas en Ham, a los emitas en Save Quiriataim[e](J), 6 y a los horeos en el monte de Seir(K) hasta El Parán(L), que está junto al desierto. 7 Entonces volvieron a En Mispat, es decir, Cades(M), y conquistaron[f] todo el territorio de los amalecitas, y también a los amorreos que habitaban en Hazezon Tamar(N).
8 Entonces el rey de Sodoma, con el rey de Gomorra, el rey de Adma, el rey de Zeboim y el rey de Bela, es decir, Zoar, salieron y les presentaron batalla en el valle de Sidim(O): 9 es decir, a Quedorlaomer, rey de Elam, a Tidal, rey de Goyim[g], a Amrafel, rey de Sinar, y a Arioc, rey de Elasar; cuatro reyes contra cinco. 10 El valle de Sidim estaba lleno de pozos de asfalto, y el rey de Sodoma(P) y el de Gomorra al huir cayeron allí. Y los demás huyeron a los montes(Q).
11 Entonces tomaron todos los bienes de Sodoma y Gomorra con todas sus provisiones, y se fueron. 12 Se llevaron también a Lot, sobrino de Abram(R), con todas sus posesiones, pues él habitaba en Sodoma(S), y se fueron.
Abram libera a Lot
13 Uno de los que escaparon[h] vino y se lo hizo saber a Abram el hebreo(T), que habitaba en el encinar[i] de Mamre(U) el amorreo, hermano de Escol y hermano de Aner, y estos eran aliados(V) de[j] Abram. 14 Al oír Abram que su sobrino[k](W) había sido llevado cautivo, movilizó a sus hombres adiestrados nacidos en su casa(X), 318 en total, y salió en su persecución hasta Dan(Y).
15 Por la noche, él, con sus siervos, organizó sus fuerzas[l](Z) contra ellos, y los derrotó[m] y los persiguió hasta Hoba, que está al norte[n] de Damasco(AA). 16 Y recobró todos sus bienes(AB), también a su sobrino[o] Lot(AC) con sus posesiones, y también a las mujeres y a la demás gente.
Abram y Melquisedec
17 A su regreso después de derrotar[p] a Quedorlaomer y a los reyes que estaban con él, salió a su encuentro el rey de Sodoma(AD) en el valle de Save, es decir, el valle del Rey(AE). 18 Y Melquisedec, rey de Salem(AF), sacó pan y vino(AG); él era sacerdote(AH) del Dios Altísimo[q]. 19 Él lo bendijo, diciendo[r]:
«Bendito sea Abram del Dios Altísimo,
Creador del cielo y de la tierra(AI);
20 Y bendito sea el Dios Altísimo
Que entregó a tus enemigos en tu mano».
Y Abram le dio el diezmo de todo(AJ).
21 El rey de Sodoma dijo a Abram: «Dame las personas[s] y toma para ti los bienes». 22 Y Abram dijo al rey de Sodoma: «He jurado[t] al Señor, Dios Altísimo, creador del cielo y de la tierra(AK), 23 que no tomaré ni un hilo ni una correa de zapato, ni ninguna cosa(AL) suya, para que no diga: “Yo enriquecí a Abram”. 24 Nada tomaré[u], excepto lo que los jóvenes han comido y la parte de los hombres que fueron conmigo: Aner, Escol y Mamre(AM). Ellos tomarán su parte».

Abram Rescues Lot
14 In those days King Amraphel of Shinar,(A) King Arioch of Ellasar, King Chedorlaomer of Elam,(B) and King Tidal of Goiim[a] 2 waged war against King Bera of Sodom, King Birsha of Gomorrah, King Shinab of Admah, and King Shemeber of Zeboiim,(C) as well as the king of Bela (that is, Zoar(D)). 3 All of these came as allies to the Siddim Valley (that is, the Dead Sea(E)). 4 They were subject to Chedorlaomer for twelve years, but in the thirteenth year they rebelled. 5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him came and defeated the Rephaim(F) in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham,(G) the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim, 6 and the Horites(H) in the mountains of Seir, as far as El-paran(I) by the wilderness. 7 Then they came back to invade En-mishpat (that is, Kadesh(J)), and they defeated the whole territory of the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.(K)
8 Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar) went out and lined up for battle in the Siddim Valley 9 against King Chedorlaomer of Elam, King Tidal of Goiim, King Amraphel of Shinar, and King Arioch of Ellasar – four kings against five. 10 Now the Siddim Valley contained many bitumen pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, some fell into them,[b] but the rest fled to the mountains.(L) 11 The four kings took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went on. 12 They also took Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, for he was living in Sodom,(M) and they went on.
13 One of the survivors came and told Abram the Hebrew,(N) who lived near the oaks belonging to Mamre the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and the brother of Aner. They were bound by a treaty with Abram. 14 When Abram heard that his relative had been taken prisoner, he assembled[c] his 318 trained men, born in his household,(O) and they went in pursuit as far as Dan.(P) 15 And he and his servants deployed against them by night, defeated them, and pursued them as far as Hobah to the north of Damascus. 16 He brought back all the goods and also his relative Lot and his goods, as well as the women and the other people.
Melchizedek’s Blessing
17 After Abram returned from defeating Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the Shaveh Valley (that is, the King’s Valley(Q)). 18 Melchizedek, king of Salem,[d](R) brought out bread and wine; he was a priest to God Most High.(S) 19 He blessed him and said:
Abram is blessed by God Most High,
Creator[e] of heaven and earth,
20 and blessed be God Most High
who has handed over your enemies to you.
And Abram gave him a tenth of everything.(T)
21 Then the king of Sodom said to Abram, ‘Give me the people, but take the possessions for yourself.’
22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom, ‘I have raised my hand in an oath to the Lord, God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth, 23 that I will not take a thread or sandal strap or anything that belongs to you, so you can never say, “I made Abram rich.” 24 I will take nothing except what the servants have eaten. But as for the share of the men who came with me – Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre – they can take their share.’

Abram Rescues Lot
14 At the time when Amraphel was king of Shinar,[a](A) Arioch king of Ellasar, Kedorlaomer(B) king of Elam(C) and Tidal king of Goyim, 2 these kings went to war against Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboyim,(D) and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar).(E) 3 All these latter kings joined forces in the Valley of Siddim(F) (that is, the Dead Sea Valley(G)). 4 For twelve years they had been subject to Kedorlaomer,(H) but in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 In the fourteenth year, Kedorlaomer(I) and the kings allied with him went out and defeated the Rephaites(J) in Ashteroth Karnaim, the Zuzites in Ham, the Emites(K) in Shaveh Kiriathaim 6 and the Horites(L) in the hill country of Seir,(M) as far as El Paran(N) near the desert. 7 Then they turned back and went to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh),(O) and they conquered the whole territory of the Amalekites,(P) as well as the Amorites(Q) who were living in Hazezon Tamar.(R)
8 Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah,(S) the king of Admah, the king of Zeboyim(T) and the king of Bela (that is, Zoar)(U) marched out and drew up their battle lines in the Valley of Siddim(V) 9 against Kedorlaomer(W) king of Elam,(X) Tidal king of Goyim, Amraphel king of Shinar and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five. 10 Now the Valley of Siddim(Y) was full of tar(Z) pits, and when the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah(AA) fled, some of the men fell into them and the rest fled to the hills.(AB) 11 The four kings seized all the goods(AC) of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food; then they went away. 12 They also carried off Abram’s nephew Lot(AD) and his possessions, since he was living in Sodom.
13 A man who had escaped came and reported this to Abram the Hebrew.(AE) Now Abram was living near the great trees of Mamre(AF) the Amorite, a brother[b] of Eshkol(AG) and Aner, all of whom were allied with Abram. 14 When Abram heard that his relative(AH) had been taken captive, he called out the 318 trained(AI) men born in his household(AJ) and went in pursuit as far as Dan.(AK) 15 During the night Abram divided his men(AL) to attack them and he routed them, pursuing them as far as Hobah, north of Damascus.(AM) 16 He recovered(AN) all the goods(AO) and brought back his relative Lot and his possessions, together with the women and the other people.
17 After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer(AP) and the kings allied with him, the king of Sodom(AQ) came out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the King’s Valley).(AR)
18 Then Melchizedek(AS) king of Salem(AT) brought out bread(AU) and wine.(AV) He was priest of God Most High,(AW) 19 and he blessed Abram,(AX) saying,
“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,(AY)
Creator of heaven and earth.(AZ)
20 And praise be to God Most High,(BA)
who delivered your enemies into your hand.”
Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.(BB)
21 The king of Sodom(BC) said to Abram, “Give me the people and keep the goods(BD) for yourself.”
22 But Abram said to the king of Sodom,(BE) “With raised hand(BF) I have sworn an oath to the Lord, God Most High,(BG) Creator of heaven and earth,(BH) 23 that I will accept nothing belonging to you,(BI) not even a thread or the strap of a sandal, so that you will never be able to say, ‘I made Abram rich.’ 24 I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share that belongs to the men who went with me—to Aner, Eshkol and Mamre.(BJ) Let them have their share.”
