Genesis 13

Abram and Lot

1

So Abramh87 wenth5927 up from Egypth4714 to  athe  1Negevh5045, he and his wifeh802 and allh3605 that belonged to him, and Loth3876 with him.

2

Now Abramh87 was  averyh3966 richh3515 in livestockh4735, in silverh3701 and in goldh2091.

3

He wenth1980  1on his journeysh4550 from the  2Negevh5045 as farh5704 as Bethelh1008, to the placeh4725 whereh834h8033 his tenth168 had beenh1961 at the beginningh8462,  abetweenh996 Bethelh1008 and Aih5857,

4

to the placeh4725 of the  aaltarh4196 whichh834 he had madeh6213a thereh8033 formerlyh7223; and thereh8033 Abramh87 calledh7121 on the nameh8034 of the LORDh3068.

5

Now  aLoth3876, who wenth1980 with Abramh87, alsoh1571 hadh1961 flocksh6629 and herdsh1241 and tentsh168.

6

And  athe landh776 could not  1sustainh5375 them  2while dwellingh3427 togetherh3164a,  bfor their possessionsh7399 were so greath7227a that they were not ableh3201 to remainh3427 togetherh3164a.

7

 aAnd there was strifeh7379 betweenh996 the herdsmenh7462a of Abram'sh87 livestockh4735 and the herdsmenh7462a of Lot'sh3876 livestockh4735. Now  bthe Canaaniteh3669a and the Perizziteh6522 were dwellingh3427 thenh227 in the landh776.

8

 aSo Abramh87 saidh559 to Loth3876, "Pleaseh4994 let there be noh408 strifeh4808 betweenh996 you and me, nor betweenh996 my herdsmenh7462a and your herdsmenh7462a, for we are brothersh251.

9

"Is not the wholeh3605 landh776 beforeh6440 you? Pleaseh4994 separateh6504 from me; ifh518 to the lefth8040, then I will goh3231 to the righth3231; or ifh518 to the righth3225, then I will goh8041 to the lefth8041."

10

Loth3876 liftedh5375 up his eyesh5869 and sawh7200 allh3605 the  1 avalleyh3603 of the Jordanh3383, that it was wellh4945b wateredh4945b everywhereh3605--this was beforeh6440 the LORDh3068  bdestroyedh7843 Sodomh5467 and Gomorrahh6017--like  cthe gardenh1588 of the LORDh3068,  dlike the landh776 of Egypth4714 as you goh935 to  eZoarh6820.

11

So Loth3876 choseh977 for himself allh3605 the  1valleyh3603 of the Jordanh3383, and Loth3876 journeyedh5265 eastwardh6924a. Thus they separatedh6504 from eachh376 otherh251.

12

Abramh87  1settledh3427 in the landh776 of Canaanh3667a, while Loth3876  1settledh3427 in  athe citiesh5892b of the  2valleyh3603, and movedh167 his tentsh167 as farh5704 as Sodomh5467.

13

Now  athe menh376 of Sodomh5467 were wickedh7451a  1exceedinglyh3966 and  bsinnersh2400 against the LORDh3068.

14

The LORDh3068 saidh559 to Abramh87, afterh310 Loth3876 had separatedh6504 from him, " aNowh4994 lifth5375 up your eyesh5869 and lookh7200 from the placeh4725 whereh834h8033 you are,  bnorthwardh6828 and southwardh5045 and eastwardh6924b and westwardh3220;

15

 afor allh3605 the landh776 whichh834 you seeh7200,  bI will giveh5414 it to you and to your  1descendantsh2233 foreverh5704h5769.

16

"I will makeh7760 your  1descendantsh2233  aas the dusth6083 of the earthh776, soh834 that ifh518 anyoneh376 canh3201 numberh4487 the dusth6083 of the earthh776, then your  1descendantsh2233 can alsoh1571 be numberedh4487.

17

"Ariseh6965,  awalkh1980 about the landh776 through its lengthh753 and breadthh7341; for  bI will giveh5414 it to you."

18

Then Abramh87 movedh167 his tenth167 and cameh935 and dwelth3427 by the  1 aoaksh436 of Mamreh4471, whichh834 are in Hebronh2275a, and thereh8033 he builth1129  ban altarh4196 to the LORDh3068.
