1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
2 And Abram [was] very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
4 To the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD [Yahweh].
5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
6 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.
7 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram's cattle and the herdmen of Lot's cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelt then in the land.
8 And Abram said to Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray you, between me and you, and between my herdmen and your herdmen; for we [are] brothers.
9 [Is] the whole land not before you? Separate yourself, I pray, from me: if [you will take] the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if [you depart] to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it [was] well watered everywhere, before the LORD [Yahweh] destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, [even] as the garden of the LORD [Yahweh], like the land of Egypt, as you come to Zoar.
11 Then Lot chose all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched [his] tent toward Sodom.
13 But the men of Sodom [were] exceedingly wicked and sinners before the LORD [Yahweh].
14 And the LORD [Yahweh] said to Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now your eyes, and look from the place where you are northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:
15 For all the land which you see, to you I will give it, and to your seed forever.
16 And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, [then] will your seed also be numbered.
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it to you.
18 Then Abram removed [his] tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which [is] in Hebron, and built there an altar to the LORD [Yahweh].
