Genesis 14:14-20
14When Abram heard that 1his relative had been taken captive, he 2led out his trained men, 3born in his house, numbering 318, and went in pursuit as far as 4Dan. 15Then 5he divided 6his forces against them by night, he and his servants, and 7defeated them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is 8north of 9Damascus. 16He 10brought back all the possessions, and also brought back 11his relative Lot with his possessions, and also the women, and the other people.
17Then after his return from the 12defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, 13the king of Sodom went out to meet him at the Valley of Shaveh (that is, 14the King’s Valley). 18And 15Melchizedek the king of Salem brought out 16bread and wine; now he was a 17priest of 18God Most High. 19And he blessed him and said, “Blessed be Abram of 19God Most High, 2021Possessor of heaven and earth;20And blessed be 22God Most High, Who has handed over your enemies to you.” And 23he gave him a tenth of everything.
