Genesis 13

Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.

And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the South.

Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.

And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

And he went on his journeys from the South even to Beth-el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Ai,

to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on Yahweh’s name.

unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of Jehovah.

Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, herds, and tents.

And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.

The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together; for their possessions were so great that they couldn’t live together.

And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.

There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.

And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s cattle and the herdsmen of Lot’s cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelt then in the land.

Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.

And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen; for we are brethren.

Isn’t the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”

Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if thou take the right hand, then I will go to the left.

Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.

And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest unto Zoar.

So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one other.

So Lot chose him all the Plain of the Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.

Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against Yahweh.

Now the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners against Jehovah exceedingly.

Yahweh said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,

And Jehovah said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward:

for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.

for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.

I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.

And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then may thy seed also be numbered.

Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”

Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.

Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to Yahweh.

And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built there an altar unto Jehovah.
