Genesis 13
1 Abram went up out of Egypt—he, his wife, all that he had, and Lot with him—into the South.
ascendit ergo Abram de Aegypto ipse et uxor eius et omnia quae habebat et Loth cum eo ad australem plagam
2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
erat autem dives valde in possessione argenti et auri
3 He went on his journeys from the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
reversusque est per iter quo venerat a meridie in Bethel usque ad locum ubi prius fixerat tabernaculum inter Bethel et Ai
4 to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. There Abram called on the LORD’s name.
in loco altaris quod fecerat prius et invocavit ibi nomen Domini
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, herds, and tents.
sed et Loth qui erat cum Abram fuerunt greges ovium et armenta et tabernacula
6 The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together; for their possessions were so great that they could not live together.
nec poterat eos capere terra ut habitarent simul erat quippe substantia eorum multa et non quibant habitare communiter
7 There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.
unde et facta est rixa inter pastores gregum Abram et Loth eo autem tempore Chananeus et Ferezeus habitabant in illa terra
8 Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.
dixit ergo Abram ad Loth ne quaeso sit iurgium inter me et te et inter pastores meos et pastores tuos fratres enim sumus
9 Is not the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”
ecce universa terra coram te est recede a me obsecro si ad sinistram ieris ego ad dexteram tenebo si tu dexteram elegeris ego ad sinistram pergam
10 Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
elevatis itaque Loth oculis vidit omnem circa regionem Iordanis quae universa inrigabatur antequam subverteret Dominus Sodomam et Gomorram sicut paradisus Domini et sicut Aegyptus venientibus in Segor
11 So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one another.
elegitque sibi Loth regionem circa Iordanem et recessit ab oriente divisique sunt alterutrum a fratre suo
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Abram habitavit in terra Chanaan Loth moratus est in oppidis quae erant circa Iordanem et habitavit in Sodomis
13 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against the LORD.
homines autem Sodomitae pessimi erant et peccatores coram Domino nimis
14 The LORD said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,
dixitque Dominus ad Abram postquam divisus est Loth ab eo leva oculos tuos et vide a loco in quo nunc es ad aquilonem et ad meridiem ad orientem et ad occidentem
15 for I will give all the land which you see to you and to your offspring forever.
omnem terram quam conspicis tibi dabo et semini tuo usque in sempiternum
16 I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if a man can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring may also be counted.
faciamque semen tuum sicut pulverem terrae si quis potest hominum numerare pulverem semen quoque tuum numerare poterit
17 Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its width; for I will give it to you.”
surge et perambula terram in longitudine et in latitudine sua quia tibi daturus sum eam
18 Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to the LORD.
movens igitur Abram tabernaculum suum venit et habitavit iuxta convallem Mambre quod est in Hebron aedificavitque ibi altare Domino
