![17 And the Lord plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues, because of Sarai, Abram’s wife. 18 And Pharaoh called Abram, and said, What is this that thou hast done unto me? why didst thou not tell me that she was thy wife ? 19 Why saidst thou, She is my sister? so I might have taken her to me to wife: now, therefore, behold thy wife, take her, and go thy way. 20 And Pharaoh commanded® his men concerning him: and they sent him away, and his wife, and all that he had. . CHAPTER XIII. AND Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south, o 2 And Abram was very rich,* in cattle, in silver, and in gold. 3 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beth-el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Hai; 4 Unto the place of the altar,™ which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the Lobd. 5 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents. 6 And the land was not able? to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together. 7 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram’s cattle, and the herd- men of Lot’s cattle : and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled/ then in the land. 8 And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife,* I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be ^brethren.4 9 Ls not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.* 10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the Loed destroyed* Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden6 of the Loed, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.® 11 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated14 themselves the one from the other. 12 Abram dwelled in the land of Ca- naan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom. 13 But the men of Sodom were wicked, and sinners? before the Loed exceedingly. 14 And the Loed said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from liim, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward, and south- warcLand eastward, and westward: 15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and* to thy seed for over. 16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can num- ber the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered. 17 Arise, walk through the land, in the length of it, and in the breadth of it; for I vail givo it unto thee. 18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the K plain of Mamre,? which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the Loed.

AND it came to pass in the days of: Amraphel king6 of Shinar, Arioch king ■ of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam,, and Tidal king of nations; 2 That these made war with Bera king; of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Go- morrah, Shinab king of Admah,14 and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which ise Zoar. 3 All these were joined together in the vale of Siddim,/ which is the salt sea. 4 Twelve years they served Chedor- laomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled. 5 And in the fourteenth year came Che- dorlaomer, and the kings that were with him, and smote* the Repliaims* in Asli- teroth Karnaim, and4 the Zuzims in Ham, and the Emims in P Sliaveh Eriathaim; 6 And the Horites in their mount Seir, unto 7 El-pa ran,m which is by the wilder- ness. 7 And they returned, and came to En- mishpat, which is Kadesli, and smote all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites, that dwelt? in Hazezon-tamar. 8 And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Acbnah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the long of Bela, (the same is Zoar;) and they join- ed battle with them in the vale of Siddim, 9 With Chedorlaomer the king of Elam, and with Tidal king of nations, and Am- raphel king of Shinar, and Arioch king of Ellasar; four kings with five. 10 And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained tied™ to the mountain. 11 And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their vic- tuals, and went then way. 12 And they took Lot, Abram’s bro- ther’s son, who dwelt? in Sodom, and his goods, and departed. 13 And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew;0 for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, bro- ther of EshcoL and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with Abram. 14 And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he v armed his 0 trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them* unto Dan. 15 And he divided himself against them, he and his servants, by night, and/ smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is on the left hand of Damascus. 16 And he brought back* all the goods, and also brought again his brother Loh and his goods, and the women also, and the people. 17 And the king of Sodom’ went out to meet him, after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him. at the valley of Shaveli, which is the kings4 dale. 18 And* Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and ho teas the** priest of the most high God. 19 And he blessed him, and said. Bless- ed be Abram of the most high God,? pos- sessor of heaven and earth; 20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave himr tithes of all. 21 And the king of Sodom said unto](https://iiif.wellcomecollection.org/image/b28040363_0024.jp2/full/800%2C/0/default.jpg)
