Genesis 13
1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
Тако отиде Аврам из Мисира горе на југ, он и жена му и све што имаше, такође и Лот с њим.
2 And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.
А беше Аврам врло богат стоком, сребром и златом.
3 And he returned by the way that he came, from the south to Bethel, to the place where before he had pitched his tent between Bethel and Hai:
И иђаше својим путевима од југа све до Ветиља, до места где му прво беше шатор, између Ветиља и Гаја,
4 In the place of the altar which he had made before; and there he called upon the name of the Lord.
До места, где пре беше начинио жртвеник; и онде призва Аврам име Господње.
5 But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.
А и Лот који иђаше с Аврамом имаше оваца и говеда и шатора.
6 Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.
И земља не могаше их носити заједно, јер благо њихово беше велико да не могоше живети заједно,
7 Whereupon also there arose a strife between the herdsmen of Abram and of Lot. And at that time the Chanaanite and the Pherezite dwelled in that country.
И беше свађа међу пастирима Аврамове стоке и пастирима Лотове стоке. А у то време живеху Хананеји и Ферезеји у оној земљи.
8 Abram therefore said to Lot: Let there be no quarrel, I beseech thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen: for we are brethren.
Па Аврам рече Лоту: Немој да се свађамо ја и ти, ни моји пастири и твоји пастири; јер смо браћа.
9 Behold the whole land is before thee: depart from me I pray thee: if thou wilt go to the left hand, I will take the right: if thou choose the right hand, I will pass 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, lifting up his eyes, saw all the country about the Jordan, which was watered throughout, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha, as the paradise of the Lord, and like Egypt as one comes to Segor.
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 And Lot chose to himself the country about the Jordan, and he departed from the east: and they were separated one brother from the other.
И Лот изабра себи сву равницу јорданску, и отиде Лот на исток; и разделише се један од другог:
12 Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan; and Lot abode in the towns that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.
Аврам живљаше у земљи хананској, а Лот живљаше по градовима у оној равници премештајући своје шаторе до Содома.
13 And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord, beyond measure.
А људи у Содому беху неваљали, и грешаху Господу веома.
14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him: Lift up thy eyes, and look from the place wherein thou now art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the 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 All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.
Јер сву земљу што видиш теби ћу дати и семену твом до века.
16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: if any man be able to number the dust of the earth, he shall be able to number thy seed also.
И учинићу да семена твог буде као праха на земљи; ако ко узможе избројати прах на земљи, моћи ће избројати и семе твоје.
17 Arise and walk through the land in the length, and in the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.
Устани, и пролази ту земљу у дужину и у ширину; јер ћу је теби дати.
18 So Abram removing his tent came and dwelt by the vale of Mambre, which is in Hebron: and he built there 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.
