Genesis 14:5–13

5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings who were with him came and defeated the Rephaimo in Ashteroth-karnaim, the Zuzim in Ham,p the Emim in Shaveh-kiriathaim, 6 and the Horitesq in the mountains of Seir, as far as El-paranr by the wilderness. 7 Then they came back to invade En-mishpat (that is, Kadeshs), and they defeated the whole territory of the Amalekites, as well as the Amorites who lived in Hazazon-tamar.t

8 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) went out and lined up for battle in the Siddim Valley 9 against King Chedorlaomer of Elam, King Tidal of Goiim, King Amraphel of Shinar, and King Arioch of Ellasar—four kings against five. 10 Now the Siddim Valley contained many asphalt pits, and as the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, some fell into them,B but the rest fled to the mountains.u 11 The four kings took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah and all their food and went on. 12 They also took Abram’s nephew Lot and his possessions, for he was living in Sodom,v and they went on.

13 One of the survivors came and told Abram the Hebrew,w who lived near the oaks belonging to Mamre the Amorite, the brother of Eshcol and the brother of Aner. They were bound by a treaty with Abram.
