Genesis 14
New King James Version
Lot’s Captivity and Rescue
14 And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king (A)of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of (B)Elam, and Tidal king of [a]nations, 2 that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of (C)Admah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, (D)Zoar). 3 All these joined together in the Valley of Siddim (E)(that is, the Salt Sea). 4 Twelve years (F)they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him came and attacked (G)the Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, (H)the Zuzim in Ham, (I)the Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim, 6 (J)and the Horites in their mountain of Seir, as far as El Paran, which is by the wilderness. 7 Then they turned back and came to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and attacked all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt (K)in Hazezon Tamar.
8 And 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 joined together in battle in the Valley of Siddim 9 against Chedorlaomer king of Elam, Tidal king of [b]nations, Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar—four kings against five. 10 Now the Valley of Siddim was full of (L)asphalt pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled; some fell there, and the remainder fled (M)to the mountains. 11 Then they took (N)all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way. 12 They also took Lot, Abram’s (O)brother’s son (P)who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the (Q)Hebrew, for (R)he dwelt by [c]the terebinth trees of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner; (S)and they were allies with Abram. 14 Now (T)when Abram heard that (U)his brother was taken captive, he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants who were (V)born in his own house, and went in pursuit (W)as far as Dan. 15 He divided his forces against them by night, and he and his servants (X)attacked them and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is [d]north of Damascus. 16 So he (Y)brought back all the goods, and also brought back his brother Lot and his goods, as well as the women and the people.
17 And the king of Sodom (Z)went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, the (AA)King’s Valley), (AB)after his return from the [e]defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him.
Abram and Melchizedek(AC)
18 Then (AD)Melchizedek king of Salem brought out (AE)bread and wine; he was (AF)the priest of (AG)God Most High. 19 And he blessed him and said:
(AH)“Blessed be Abram of God Most High,
(AI)Possessor of heaven and earth;
20 And (AJ)blessed be God Most High,
Who has delivered your enemies into your hand.”
And he (AK)gave him [f]a tithe of all.
21 Now the king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the [g]persons, and take the goods for yourself.”
22 But Abram (AL)said to the king of Sodom, “I (AM)have raised my hand to the Lord, God Most High, (AN)the Possessor of heaven and earth, 23 that (AO)I will take nothing, from a thread to a sandal strap, and that I will not take anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich’— 24 except only what the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.”

Аврам избавља Лота
14 У те дане, Амрафел цар Сенара, Ариох цар Еласара, Кедор-Лаомер цар Елама и Тидал цар Гојима, 2 поведу рат против Бере, цара содомског, Варсе, цара гоморског, Шинаба, цара Адме, Симовора, цара Севојима и цара Вале, то јест Соара. 3 Сви се они скупе у долину Сидим, где је Мртво море[a]. 4 Дванаест година су били потчињени Кедор-Лаомеру, али тринаесте године се побуне.
5 Четрнаесте године дође Кедор-Лаомер с царевима што су му били савезници и потуку Рефаимце у Астарот-Карнајиму, Зузејце у Аму и Емијце на равници киријатајимској, 6 те Хоријце на њиховој гори Сир, близу Ел-Фарана, што је покрај пустиње. 7 Онда се врате назад и дођу у Ен-Миспат, то јест Кадис, и освоје целу област Амаличана и Аморејаца, који су живели у Хасасон-Тамару.
8 Тада се дигне цар Содоме, цар Гоморе, цар Адме, цар Севојима и цар Вале, то јест Соара, па заметну битку против оних у долини Сидим: 9 Кедор-Лаомера, цара Елама, Тидала, цара Гојима, Амрафела, цара Сенара, Ариоха, цара Еласара – четири цара против петорице. 10 Долина Сидим је била пуна јама са смолом. Цареви Содоме и Гоморе, бежећи, упадну у њих, а остали побегну у горе. 11 А победници однесу сва добра Содоме и Гоморе и сву храну, па оду. 12 Одвели су и Лота, Аврамовог синовца, који је живео у Содоми, са свим његовим добрима.
13 Али неки бегунац дође и све исприча Авраму Јеврејину, док је боравио код храстова Аморејца Мамрије, брата Есхола и Анера, који су били његови савезници. 14 Кад је Аврам чуо да му је синовац заробљен, сабере своје људе вичне боју – рођене у његовом дому – њих три стотине осамнаест, па крене у потеру до Дана. 15 Онда их је поделио у две групе, па је ноћу напао ону војску и потукао је. Гонио их је све до Хове, северно од Дамаска 16 и повратио сав плен. Вратио је и свога синовца, Лота, са његовим добрима, жене и остали свет.
Мелхиседек благосиља Аврама
17 Кад се након победе над Кедор-Лаомером и царевима који су били с њим, Аврам вратио у долину Саве, то јест у Царску долину, изађе му у сусрет цар Содоме.
18 Тада Мелхиседек, цар Салима, донесе хлеб и вино. Он је био свештеник Бога Свевишњега. 19 Он благослови Аврама рекавши:
„Нека Бог Свевишњи,
створитељ неба и земље, благослови Аврама!
20 Нека је благословен Бог Свевишњи,
што теби у руке изручи непријатеље твоје!“
Аврам му тада даде десетак од свега.
21 А цар содомски рече Авраму: „Мени дај људе, а ти узми добра.“ 22 Али Аврам му рече: „Подижем руку пред Господом, Богом Свевишњим, створитељем неба и земље, 23 да нећу узети ни кончића с ремена од обуће, нити ишта што ти припада, да не би рекао: ’Ја сам учинио Аврама богатим!’ 24 За себе нећу ништа, осим што су моји момци појели. Део плена нека узму људи који су пошли са мном – Анер, Есхол и Мамрије.“

Genesis 14
King James Version
14 And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations;
2 That these made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
3 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim, which is the salt sea.
4 Twelve years they served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 And in the fourteenth year came Chedorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaims in Ashteroth Karnaim, and the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emins in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
6 And the Horites in their mount Seir, unto Elparan, which is by the wilderness.
7 And they returned, and came to Enmishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt in Hazezontamar.
8 And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
9 With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Amraphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five.
10 And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain.
11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.
12 And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram.
14 And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.
15 And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus.
16 And he brought back all the goods, and also brought again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people.
17 And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God.
19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth:
20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all.
21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
23 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:
24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
