4 Twelve years they were enslaved to Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.

5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer came, and the kings that were with him, and smote the Rephaimites in Ashteroth-Karnaim, and the Zuzimites in Gham, and the Emim in Shava-kiriathaim,

6 And the Horites in their mountain Seir, as far as El-Pharan in the wilderness.

7 And having returned from thence, they came to the fountain of Mishpat, which is Kadesh, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt in Hazazon-Tamar.

8 And there went forth the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar; And they fought with them in the valley of Siddim;

14 And when Abram heard that his kinsman had been taken captive, he armed his servants, who were born in his house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued the enemy as far as Dan.

15 And he was divided, and fell upon them by night, himself and his servants, and smote them, and pursued them as far as Hobah, which is on the left side of Damascus;

16 And he restored all the goods, and Lot his kinsman, and his goods, and also the women and the people.

17 And when he was returning from the defeat of Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him, the king of Sodom went out to meet him in the valley of Shaveh, which is now the valley of the king;
