Genesis 14:8-16

8And the kingH4428 of SodomH5467 and the kingH4428 of GomorrahH6017, and the kingH4428 of AdmahH126, and the kingH4428 of Zeboim, and the kingH4428 of BelaH1106, which is ZoarH6820, wentH3318 out, and they joined battleH4421 with them in the vale of SiddimH7708,

9with Chedorlaomer the kingH4428 of ElamH5867, and TidalH8413 the kingH4428 of nationsH1471, and AmraphelH569 the kingH4428 of ShinarH8152, and AriochH746 the kingH4428 of EllasarH495 — fourH702 kingsH4428 with the fiveH2568.

10And the vale of SiddimH7708 was full of pitsH875 of asphalt. And the kingsH4428 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 fledH5127, and fellH5307 there: and they that remainedH7604 fledH5127 to the mountainH2022.

11And they tookH3947 all the propertyH7399 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and all their victuals, and departed.

12And they tookH3947 LotH3876 and his propertyH7399, Abram's brother's sonH1121, and departed. For he dweltH3427 in SodomH5467.

13And one who had escaped cameH935 and toldH5046 AbramH87 the HebrewH5680. And he dweltH7931 by the oaks of MamreH4471 the AmoriteH567, the brotherH251 of EshcolH812, and the brotherH251 of AnerH6063. And these were Abram's allies.

14And AbramH87 heardH8085 that his brotherH251 was takenH7617 captiveH7617; and he led out his trained [servants], born in his houseH1004, threeH7969 hundredH3967 and eighteen, and pursuedH7291 [them] as far as DanH1835.

15And he dividedH2505 himself against them by nightH3915, he and his servantsH5650, and smote them, and pursuedH7291 them as far as Hobah, which is to the left of DamascusH1834.

16And he broughtH7725 backH7725 all the propertyH7399, and broughtH7725 again his brotherH251 LotH3876 and his propertyH7399, and the womenH802 alsoH1571, and the peopleH5971.
