Compare all
10 Now the Valley of Siddim was full of aasphalt pits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled; some fell there, and the remainder fled bto the mountains.  
11 Then they took aall the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their provisions, and went their way.  
12 They also took Lot, Abram’s abrother’s son bwho dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.  
13 Then one who had escaped came and told Abram the aHebrew, for bhe dwelt by the terebinth trees of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol and brother of Aner; cand they were allies with Abram.  
14 Now awhen Abram heard that bhis brother was taken captive, he armed his three hundred and eighteen trained servants who were cborn in his own house, and went in pursuit das far as Dan.

Genesis 14:12

they took Lot . . . and his goods, and departed—How would the conscience of that young man now upbraid him for his selfish folly and ingratitude in withdrawing from his kind and pious relative! Whenever we go out of the path of duty, we put ourselves away from God's protection, and cannot expect that the choice we make will be for our lasting good.
