Genesis 14:17-24 - Melchizedek's Blessing

17 And the king of Sodom goeth out to meet him (after his turning back from the smiting of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings who are with him), unto the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's valley. 18 And Melchizedek king of Salem hath brought out bread and wine, and he is priest of God Most High; 19 and he blesseth him, and saith, 'Blessed is Abram to God Most High, possessing heaven and earth; 20 and blessed is God Most High, who hath delivered thine adversaries into thy hand;' and he giveth to him a tenth of all.

21 And the king of Sodom saith unto Abram, 'Give to me the persons, and the substance take to thyself,'

22 and Abram saith unto the king of Sodom, 'I have lifted up my hand unto Jehovah, God Most High, possessing heaven and earth -- 23 from a thread even unto a shoe-latchet I take not of anything which thou hast, that thou say not, I -- I have made Abram rich; 24 save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who have gone with me -- Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre -- they take their portion.'
