Genesis 13

¹ And up is Abram going from Egypt, he and his wife and all that is his, and Lot with him, to the south-rim. ² And Abram is very heavy in cattle, in silver, and in gold. ³ And going is he, in his journeyings from the south-rim, as far as Beth-El, as far as the place where his tent came to be at the start, between Beth-El and Ai, ⁴ to the place of the altar, which he made there at the first. And there calling is Abram on the name of Yahweh. ⁵ And moreover, Lot who is going with Abram, comes to have a flock and a herd and tents. ⁶ And not bearing is the land their dwelling together, for coming are their goods to be many and they cannot dwell together. ⁷ And coming is a contention between the graziers of Abram's cattle and the graziers of Lot's cattle. And the Canaanite and the Perizzite are then dwelling in the land. ⁸ And saying is Abram to Lot, "There must not, pray, come to be contention between me and you, and between my graziers and your graziers, for mortals, brethren are we. ⁹ Is not the entire land before you? Be parted, pray, from me. If to the left, to the right will I go. And if to the right, to the left will I go." ¹⁰ And lifting is Lot his eyes and is seeing all the basin of the Jordan, for all of it was irrigated before Yahweh wrecked Sodom and Gomorrah, as the garden of Yahweh Elohim, as the land of Egypt as you come to Zoar. ¹¹ And choosing is Lot for his all the basin of the Jordan. And journeying is Lot east. And being parted are they, each man from his brother. ¹² Abram dwells in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwells in the cities of the basin. And tenting is he as far as Sodom. ¹³ Now the mortals of Sodom are evil and sinners against Yahweh Elohim exceedingly. ¹⁴ And Yahweh Elohim says to Abram after Lot was parted from him, "Lift your eyes, pray, and see. From the place where you now are, northward and toward the south-rim and eastward and seaward, ¹⁵ for all the land which you are seeing, to you am I giving it, and to your seed, till the eon. ¹⁶ And I make your seed as the soil of the land. Could a man count the soil of the land, moreover, then your seed shall be counted. ¹⁷ Rise, walk in the land, its length and its width, for to you am I giving it, and to your seed, for the eon. ¹⁸ And tenting is Abram, and coming and dwelling among the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron. And building is he there an altar to Yahweh.
