Genesis 14:21-24

Easy-to-Read Version

²¹ Then the king of Sodom told Abram, “Give me my people who were captured. But you can keep everything else.”

²² But Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I promise to the Lord, the God Most High, the one who made heaven and earth. ²³ I promise that I will not keep anything that is yours—not even a thread or a sandal strap! I don’t want you to say, ‘I made Abram rich.’ ²⁴ The only thing I will accept is the food that my young men have eaten, but you should give the other men their share. Take what we won in battle and give some to Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. These men helped me in the battle.”
