19. And he blessed[H1288] him, and said,[H559] Blessed[H1288] be Abram[H87] of the most high[H5945] God,[H410] possessor[H7069] of heaven[H8064] and earth: [H776]

20. And blessed[H1288] be the most high[H5945] God,[H410] which[H834] hath delivered[H4042] thine enemies[H6862] into thy hand.[H3027] And he gave[H5414] him tithes[H4643] of all.[H4480] [H3605]

22. And Abram[H87] said[H559] to[H413] the king[H4428] of Sodom,[H5467] I have lifted up[H7311] mine hand[H3027] unto[H413] the LORD,[H3068] the most high[H5945] God,[H410] the possessor[H7069] of heaven[H8064] and earth,[H776]

23. That I will not[H518] take from a thread[H4480] [H2339] even to[H5704] a shoelatchet,[H8288] [H5275] and that I will not[H518] take[H3947] any thing[H4480] [H3605] that[H834] is thine, lest[H3808] thou shouldest say,[H559] I[H589] have made Abram rich:[H6238] [H853] [H87]

24. Save[H1107] only[H7535] that which[H834] the young men[H5288] have eaten,[H398] and the portion[H2506] of the men[H376] which[H834] went[H1980] with[H854] me, Aner,[H6063] Eshcol,[H812] and Mamre;[H4471] let them[H1992] take[H3947] their portion.[H2506]
