1
And AbramH87 wentH5927 up out of Egypt,H4714 he, and his wife,H802 and allH3605 that he had, and LotH3876 with him, into the south.H5045
2
And AbramH87 was veryH3966 richH3513 in cattle,H4735 in silver,H3701 and in gold.H2091
3
And he wentH3212 on his journeysH4550 from the southH5045 even to Bethel,H1008 to the placeH4725 whereH834 his tentH168 had beenH1961 at the beginning,H8462 betweenH996 BethelH1008 and Hai;H5857
4
To the placeH4725 of the altar,H4196 whichH834 he had madeH6213 thereH8033 at the first:H7223 and thereH8033 AbramH87 calledH7121 on the nameH8034 of the LORD.H3068
5
And LotH3876 also,H1571 which wentH1980 with Abram,H87 hadH1961 flocks,H6629 and herds,H1241 and tents.H168
6
And the landH776 was not ableH5375 to bearH5375 them, that they might dwellH3427 together:H3162 for their substanceH7399 was great,H7227 so that they couldH3201 not dwellH3427 together.H3162
7
And there was a strifeH7379 betweenH996 the herdsmenH7462 of Abram'sH87 cattleH4735 and the herdsmenH7462 of Lot'sH3876 cattle:H4735 and the CanaaniteH3669 and the PerizziteH6522 dwelledH3427 thenH227 in the land.H776
8
And AbramH87 saidH559 to Lot,H3876 Let there be noH408 strife,H4808 I prayH4994 you, betweenH996 me and you, and betweenH996 my herdsmenH7462 and your herdsmen;H7462 for we be brothers.H251
9
Is not the wholeH3605 landH776 beforeH6440 you? separateH6504 yourself, I prayH4994 you, from me: ifH518 you will take the leftH8040 hand,H8041 then I will go to the right;H3231 or ifH518 you depart to the rightH3225 hand,H3225 then I will go to the left.H8041
10
And LotH3876 liftedH5375 up his eyes,H5869 and beheldH7200 allH3605 the plainH3603 of Jordan,H3383 that it was well wateredH4945 everyH3605 where, beforeH6440 the LORDH3068 destroyedH7843 SodomH5467 and Gomorrah,H6017 even as the gardenH1588 of the LORD,H3068 like the landH776 of Egypt,H4714 as you comeH935 to Zoar.H6820
11
Then LotH3876 choseH977 him allH3605 the plainH3603 of Jordan;H3383 and LotH3876 journeyedH5265 east:H6924 and they separatedH6504 themselves the oneH376 from the other.H251
12
AbramH87 dwelledH3427 in the landH776 of Canaan,H3667 and LotH3876 dwelledH3427 in the citiesH5892 of the plain,H3603 and pitchedH167 his tentH167 towardH5704 Sodom.H5467
13
But the menH582 of SodomH5467 were wickedH7451 and sinnersH2400 before the LORDH3068 exceedingly.H3966
14
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 to Abram,H87 afterH310 that LotH3876 was separatedH6504 from him, LiftH5375 up now your eyes,H5869 and lookH7200 from the placeH4725 whereH834 H8033 you are northward,H6828 and southward,H5045 and eastward,H6924 and westward:H3220
15
For allH3605 the landH776 whichH834 you see,H7200 to you will I giveH5414 it, and to your seedH2233 for ever.H5769
16
And I will makeH7760 your seedH2233 as the dustH6083 of the earth:H776 soH834 that ifH518 a manH376 canH3201 numberH4487 the dustH6083 of the earth,H776 then shall your seedH2233 alsoH1571 be numbered.H4487
17
Arise,H6965 walkH1980 through the landH776 in the lengthH753 of it and in the breadthH7341 of it; for I will giveH5414 it to you.
18
Then AbramH87 removedH167 his tent,H167 and cameH935 and dwelledH3427 in the plainH436 of Mamre,H4471 which is in Hebron,H2275 and builtH1129 thereH8033 an altarH4196 to the LORD.H3068
