1 And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king aof Shinar, Arioch king of Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of bElam, and Tidal king of nations,
2 that they made war with Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of aAdmah, Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (that is, bZoar).
3 All these joined together in the Valley of Siddim a(that is, the Salt Sea).
4 Twelve years athey served Chedorlaomer, and in the thirteenth year they rebelled.
5 In the fourteenth year Chedorlaomer and the kings that were with him came and attacked athe Rephaim in Ashteroth Karnaim, bthe Zuzim in Ham, cthe Emim in Shaveh Kiriathaim,
6 aand the Horites in their mountain of Seir, as far as El Paran, which is by the wilderness.
7 Then they turned back and came to En Mishpat (that is, Kadesh), and attacked all the country of the Amalekites, and also the Amorites who dwelt ain Hazezon Tamar.
