Genesis 13
1 So Abram went up out of Egypt into the Negev—he and his wife and all his possessions—and Lot was with him.
Tako otide Avram iz Misira gore na jug, on i žena mu i sve što imaše, takoðer i Lot s njim.
2 And Abram had become extremely wealthy in livestock and silver and gold.
A bijaše Avram vrlo bogat stokom, srebrom i zlatom.
3 From the Negev he journeyed from place to place toward Bethel, until he came to the place between Bethel and Ai where his tent had formerly been pitched,
I iðaše svojim putovima od juga sve do Vetilja, do mjesta gdje mu prvo bijaše šator, izmeðu Vetilja i Gaja,
4 to the site where he had built the altar. And there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
Do mjesta, gdje preðe bješe naèinio žrtvenik; i ondje prizva Avram ime Gospodnje.
5 Now Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents.
A i Lot koji iðaše s Avramom imaše ovaca i goveda i šatora.
6 But the land was unable to support both of them while they stayed together, for they had so many possessions that they were unable to coexist.
I zemlja ne mogaše ih nositi zajedno, jer blago njihovo bijaše veliko da ne mogahu živjeti zajedno,
7 And there was discord between the herdsmen of Abram and the herdsmen of Lot. At that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were also living in the land.
I bijaše svaða meðu pastirima Avramove stoke i pastirima Lotove stoke. A u to vrijeme življahu Hananeji i Ferezeji u onoj zemlji.
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no contention between you and me, or between your herdsmen and my herdsmen. After all, we are brothers.
Pa Avram reèe Lotu: nemoj da se svaðamo ja i ti, ni moji pastiri i tvoji pastiri; jer smo braæa.
9 Is not the whole land before you? Now separate yourself from me. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.”
Nije li ti otvorena cijela zemlja? Odijeli se od mene. Ako æeš ti na lijevo, ja æu na desno; ako li æeš ti na desno, ja æu na lijevo.
10 And Lot looked out and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan, all the way to Zoar, was well watered like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)
Tada Lot podiže oèi svoje i sagleda svu ravnicu Jordansku, kako cijelu natapaše rijeka, bješe kao vrt Gospodnji, kao zemlja Misirska, sve do Zogora, prije nego Gospod zatr Sodom i Gomor.
11 So Lot chose the whole plain of the Jordan for himself and set out toward the east. And Abram and Lot parted company.
I Lot izabra sebi svu ravnicu Jordansku, i otide Lot na istok; i razdijeliše se jedan od drugoga:
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
Avram življaše u zemlji Hananskoj, a Lot življaše po gradovima u onoj ravnici premještajuæi svoje šatore do Sodoma.
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked, sinning greatly against the LORD.
A ljudi u Sodomu bijahu nevaljali, i griješahu Gospodu veoma.
14 After Lot had departed, the LORD said to Abram, “Now lift up your eyes from the place where you are, and look to the north and south and east and west,
A Gospod reèe Avramu, pošto se Lot odijeli od njega: podigni sada oèi svoje, pa pogledaj s mjesta gdje si na sjever i na jug i na istok i na zapad.
15 for all the land that you see, I will give to you and your offspring forever.
Jer svu zemlju što vidiš tebi æu dati i sjemenu tvojemu dovijeka.
16 I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if one could count the dust of the earth, then your offspring could be counted.
I uèiniæu da sjemena tvojega bude kao praha na zemlji; ako ko uzmože izbrojiti prah na zemlji, moæi æe izbrojiti i sjeme tvoje.
17 Get up and walk around the land, through its length and breadth, for I will give it to you.”
Ustani, i prolazi tu zemlju u dužinu i u širinu; jer æu je tebi dati.
18 So Abram moved his tent and went to live near the Oaks of Mamre at Hebron, where he built an altar to the LORD.
I Avram diže šatore, i doðe i naseli se u ravnici Mamrijskoj, koja je kod Hevrona, i ondje naèini žrtvenik Gospodu.
