| LXX |
The latter (five) came as allies to the Valley of Siddim (that is , the Salt Sea ).
| LXX |
For twelve ... years they had been subject - to Chedorlaomer , but in the thirteenth ... year they rebelled.
| LXX |
In the fourteenth ... year , Chedorlaomer and the kings - allied with him went out and defeated - the Rephaites in Ashteroth-karnaim , - the Zuzites in Ham , - the Emites in Shaveh-kiriathaim ... ,
| LXX |
and the Horites in (the area of) Mount Seir , as far as vvv El-paran , which (is) near the desert.
| LXX |
Then they turned back to invade ... vvv En-mishpat (that is , Kadesh) , and they conquered - the whole territory of the Amalekites , as - well as the Amorites who lived vvv in Hazazon-tamar.
| LXX |
Then the king of Sodom , the king of Gomorrah , the king of Admah , the king of Zeboiim , and the king of Bela (that is , Zoar ) marched out and arrayed themselves for battle in the Valley of Siddim
| LXX |
against Chedorlaomer king of Elam , Tidal king of Goiim , Amraphel king of Shinar , and Arioch king of Ellasar — four kings against five.
| LXX |
Now the Valley of Siddim was full of tar pits ... , and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled , some men fell into (the pits) , but the survivors fled to the hill country.
| LXX |
The (four kings) seized - all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah - and all their food , and they went on their way.
| LXX |
They also carried off - - Abram’s nephew ... Lot - and his possessions , since (Lot) was living in Sodom.
| LXX |
Then an escapee came and reported (this) to Abram the Hebrew. Now (Abram) was living near the Oaks of Mamre the Amorite , a brother of Eshcol (and) Aner , all of whom were bound by treaty to Abram.
| LXX |
And when Abram heard that his relative had been captured , he mobilized - the 318 ... ... ... trained men born in his household , and they set out in pursuit as far as Dan.
| LXX |
During the night , (Abram) divided ... his forces and routed (Chedorlaomer’s army) , pursuing them as far as Hobah , - north of Damascus.
| LXX |
He retrieved - all the goods , as well as - his relative Lot and his possessions , ... together with - the women - and the rest of the people.
| LXX |
After Abram returned from defeating - vvv Chedorlaomer - and the kings vvv allied with him , the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the Valley of Shaveh (that is , the King’s Valley).
| LXX |
vvv Then Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine — since he was priest of God Most High —
| LXX |
and he blessed (Abram) and said : “ Blessed be Abram by God Most High , Creator of heaven and earth ,
| LXX |
and blessed be God Most High , who has delivered your enemies into your hand. ” Then Abram gave a tenth of everything.
| LXX |
The king of Sodom said to Abram , “ Give the people , but take the goods
| LXX |
But Abram replied to the king of Sodom , “ I have raised my hand to the LORD God Most High , Creator of heaven and earth ,
| LXX |
that I will not accept even a thread , or a strap of a sandal , or anything that lest you should say , ‘ I {have made} Abram - rich. ’
| LXX |
I will accept nothing but what my men have eaten and the share for the men who went with me — Aner , Eshcol , and Mamre. They may take their portion. ”
