14:22 Abram replied to the king of Sodom, 'I have lifted my hand [in an oath] to God Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth!
Vayomer Avram el-melech Sedom harimoti yadi el-Adonay El Elyon Koneh shamayim va'arets.
14:23 Not a thread nor a shoelace! I will not take anything that is yours! You should not be able to say, 'It was I who made Abram rich.'
Im-michut ve'ad sroch-na'al ve'im-ekach mikol-asher-lach velo tomar ani he'esharti et-Avram.


Commentary:

shoelace
  Or 'shoestrap.' Cf. Isaiah 5:27.
