Genesis 14:19-21

The Message

^17-20 After Abram returned from defeating Kedorlaomer and his allied kings, the king of Sodom came out to greet him in the Valley of Shaveh, the King’s Valley. Melchizedek, king of Salem, brought out bread and wine—he was priest of The High God—and blessed him:

Abram gave him a tenth of all the recovered plunder.

²¹ The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me back the people but keep all the plunder for yourself.”
