Genesis 14:11-17

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹¹ So the enemy took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their provisions and went their way;^{(A) 12} they also took Lot, the son of Abram’s brother, who lived in Sodom, and his goods and departed.^(B)

¹³ Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the Hebrew, who was living by the oaks^[a] of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and of Aner; these were allies of Abram.^{(C) 14} When Abram heard that his nephew had been taken captive, he led forth his trained men, born in his house, three hundred eighteen of them, and went in pursuit as far as Dan.^{(D) 15} He divided his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and routed them and pursued them to Hobah, north of Damascus. ¹⁶ Then he brought back all the goods and also brought back his nephew Lot with his goods and the women and the people.^(E)
