Genesis 14:19-24 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

19. He blessed Abram with these words:“Blessed be Abram by God Most High,the creator of heaven and earth;

20. And blessed be God Most High,who delivered your foes into your hand.”Then Abram gave him a tenth of everything.

21. The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the captives; the goods you may keep.”

22. But Abram replied to the king of Sodom: “I have sworn to the Lord, God Most High, the creator of heaven and earth,

23. that I would not take so much as a thread or a sandal strap from anything that is yours, so that you cannot say, ‘I made Abram rich.’

24. Nothing for me except what my servants have consumed and the share that is due to the men who went with me—Aner, Eshcol and Mamre; let them take their share.”
