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.
Тако отиде Аврам из Мисира горе на југ, он и жена му и све што имаше, такође и Лот с њим.
2 And Abram had become extremely wealthy in livestock and silver and gold.
А беше Аврам врло богат стоком, сребром и златом.
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,
И иђаше својим путевима од југа све до Ветиља, до места где му прво беше шатор, између Ветиља и Гаја,
4 to the site where he had built the altar. And there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
До места, где пре беше начинио жртвеник; и онде призва Аврам име Господње.
5 Now Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents.
А и Лот који иђаше с Аврамом имаше оваца и говеда и шатора.
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.
И земља не могаше их носити заједно, јер благо њихово беше велико да не могоше живети заједно,
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.
И беше свађа међу пастирима Аврамове стоке и пастирима Лотове стоке. А у то време живеху Хананеји и Ферезеји у оној земљи.
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.
Па Аврам рече Лоту: Немој да се свађамо ја и ти, ни моји пастири и твоји пастири; јер смо браћа.
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.”
Није ли ти отворена цела земља? Одели се од мене. Ако ћеш ти на лево, ја ћу на десно; ако ли ћеш ти на десно ја ћу на лево.
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.)
Тада Лот подиже очи своје и сагледа сву равницу јорданску, како целу натапаше река, беше као врт Господњи, као земља мисирска, све до Загора, пре него Господ затре Содом и Гомор.
11 So Lot chose the whole plain of the Jordan for himself and set out toward the east. And Abram and Lot parted company.
И Лот изабра себи сву равницу јорданску, и отиде Лот на исток; и разделише се један од другог:
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled in the cities of the plain and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
Аврам живљаше у земљи хананској, а Лот живљаше по градовима у оној равници премештајући своје шаторе до Содома.
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked, sinning greatly against the LORD.
А људи у Содому беху неваљали, и грешаху Господу веома.
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,
А Господ рече Авраму, пошто се Лот одели од њега: Подигни сада очи своје, па погледај с места где си на север и на југ и на исток и на запад.
15 for all the land that you see, I will give to you and your offspring forever.
Јер сву земљу што видиш теби ћу дати и семену твом до века.
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.
И учинићу да семена твог буде као праха на земљи; ако ко узможе избројати прах на земљи, моћи ће избројати и семе твоје.
17 Get up and walk around the land, through its length and breadth, for I will give it to you.”
Устани, и пролази ту земљу у дужину и у ширину; јер ћу је теби дати.
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.
И Аврам диже шаторе, и дође и насели се у равници мамријској, која је код Хеврона, и онде начини жртвеник Господу.
