Genesis 13:1-18

13:1

And Abram
<087>

went up
<05927> (8799)

out of Egypt
<04714>_,

he, and his wife
<0802>_,

and all that he had, and Lot
<03876>

with him, into the south
<05045>_.

13:2

And Abram
<087>

[was] very
<03966>

rich
<03513> (8804)

in cattle
<04735>_,

in silver
<03701>_,

and in gold
<02091>_.

13:3

And he went
<03212> (8799)

on his journeys
<04550>

from the south
<05045>

even to Bethel
<01008>_,

unto the place
<04725>

where his tent
<0168>

had been
<01961> (8804)

at the beginning
<08462>_,

between Bethel
<01008>

and Hai
<05857>_;

13:4

Unto the place
<04725>

of the altar
<04196>_,

which he had made
<06213> (8804)

there at the first
<07223>_:

and there Abram
<087>

called
<07121> (8799)

on the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>_.

13:5

And Lot
<03876>

also, which went
<01980> (8802)

with
<0854>

Abram
<087>_,

had flocks
<06629>_,

and herds
<01241>_,

and tents
<0168>_.

13:6

And the land
<0776>

was not able to bear
<05375> (8804)

them, that they might dwell
<03427> (8800)

together
<03162>_:

for their substance
<07399>

was great
<07227>_,

so that they could
<03201> (8804)

not dwell
<03427> (8800)

together
<03162>_.

13:7

And there was a strife
<07379>

between the herdmen
<07462> (8802)

of Abram's
<087>

cattle
<04735>

and the herdmen
<07462> (8802)

of Lot's
<03876>

cattle
<04735>_:

and the Canaanite
<03669>

and the Perizzite
<06522>

dwelled
<03427> (8802)

then in the land
<0776>_.

13:8

And Abram
<087>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Lot
<03876>_,

Let there be
<01961> (8799)

no
<0408>

strife
<04808>_,

I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen
<07462> (8802)

and thy herdmen
<07462> (8802)_;

for we
<0582>

[be] brethren
<0251>_.

{brethren: Heb. men brethren}

13:9

[Is] not the whole land
<0776>

before thee
<06440>_?

separate thyself
<06504> (8734)_,

I pray thee, from me: if [thou wilt take] the left hand
<08040>_,

then I will go to the right
<03231> (8686)_;

or if [thou depart] to the right hand
<03225>_,

then I will go to the left
<08041> (8686)_.

13:10

And Lot
<03876>

lifted up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>_,

and beheld
<07200> (8799)

all the plain
<03603>

of Jordan
<03383>_,

that it [was] well watered
<04945>

every where, before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>

destroyed
<07843> (8763)

Sodom
<05467>

and Gomorrah
<06017>_,

[even] as the garden
<01588>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

like the land
<0776>

of Egypt
<04714>_,

as thou comest
<0935> (8800)

unto Zoar
<06820>_.

13:11

Then Lot
<03876>

chose
<0977> (8799)

him all the plain
<03603>

of Jordan
<03383>_;

and Lot
<03876>

journeyed
<05265> (8799)

east
<06924>_:

and they separated themselves
<06504> (8735)

the one
<0376>

from the other
<0251>_.

13:12

Abram
<087>

dwelled
<03427> (8804)

in the land
<0776>

of Canaan
<03667>_,

and Lot
<03876>

dwelled
<03427> (8804)

in the cities
<05892>

of the plain
<03603>_,

and pitched [his] tent
<0167> (8799)

toward
<05704>

Sodom
<05467>_.

13:13

But the men
<0582>

of Sodom
<05467>

[were] wicked
<07451>

and sinners
<02400>

before the LORD
<03068>

exceedingly
<03966>_.

13:14

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8804)

unto Abram
<087>_,

after
<0310>

that Lot
<03876>

was separated
<06504> (8736)

from him, Lift up
<05375> (8798)

now thine eyes
<05869>_,

and look
<07200> (8798)

from the place
<04725>

where thou art northward
<06828>_,

and southward
<05045>_,

and eastward
<06924>_,

and westward
<03220>_:

13:15

For all the land
<0776>

which thou seest
<07200> (8802)_,

to thee will I give it
<05414> (8799)_,

and to thy seed
<02233>

for
<05704>

ever
<05769>_.

13:16

And I will make
<07760> (8804)

thy seed
<02233>

as the dust
<06083>

of the earth
<0776>_:

so that
<0834>

if a man
<0376>

can
<03201> (8799)

number
<04487> (8800)

the dust
<06083>

of the earth
<0776>_,

[then] shall thy seed
<02233>

also be numbered
<04487> (8735)_.

13:17

Arise
<06965> (8798)_,

walk
<01980> (8690)

through the land
<0776>

in the length
<0753>

of it and in the breadth
<07341>

of it; for I will give
<05414> (8799)

it unto thee.

13:18

Then Abram
<087>

removed [his] tent
<0167> (8799)_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in the plain
<0436>

of Mamre
<04471>_,

which [is] in Hebron
<02275>_,

and built
<01129> (8799)

there an altar
<04196>

unto the LORD
<03068>_.
