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.
Abram se je dvignil iz Egipta na jug, on in njegova žena in vse, kar je imel in Lot z njim.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
Abram je bil zelo bogat z živino, s srebrom in z zlatom.
3 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
Odšel je na svoja potovanja od juga celó do Betela, na kraj, kjer je bil od začetka njegov šotor, med Betelom in Ajem,
4 To the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
na kraj z oltarjem, ki ga je tam najprej naredil in tam je Abram klical h Gospodovemu imenu.
5 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
Tudi Lot, ki je odšel z Abramom, je imel trope, črede in šotore.
6 And the land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.
Zemlja pa ju ni mogla podpirati, da bi lahko prebivala skupaj, kajti njuno imetje je bilo veliko, tako da nista mogla prebivati skupaj.
7 And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s cattle and the herdsmen of Lot’s cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land.
Bil pa je prepir med čredniki Abramove živine in čredniki Lotove živine, in takrat so v deželi prebivali Kánaanci in Perizéjci.
8 And Abram said to Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray you, between me and you, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we be brothers.
Abram je rekel Lotu: »Naj ne bo prepira, prosim te, med menoj in teboj in med mojimi čredniki in med tvojimi čredniki, kajti mi smo bratje.
9 Is not the whole land before you? separate yourself, I pray you, from me: if you will take the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if you depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
Mar ni vsa dežela pred teboj? Prosim te, loči se od mene. Če boš vzel levico, potem bom odšel na desno, ali če ti odideš na desnico, potem bom jaz odšel na levo.«
10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, even as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you come to Zoar.
Lot je povzdignil svoje oči in pogledal vso jordansko ravnino, ki je bila, preden je Gospod uničil Sódomo in Gomóro, vsepovsod dobro namakana, kakor Gospodov vrt, podobna egiptovski deželi, ko prideš do Coarja.
11 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
Potem si je Lot izbral vso Jordansko ravnino in Lot je odpotoval vzhodno in ločila sta se drug od drugega, eden od drugega.
12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
Abram je prebival v kánaanski deželi, Lot pa je prebival v mestih ravnine in svoj šotor postavljal v smeri Sódome.
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
Toda sódomski možje so bili zlobni in silni grešniki pred Gospodom.
14 And the LORD said to Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now your eyes, and look from the place where you are northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:
Gospod je rekel Abramu, potem ko je bil Lot ločen od njega: »Dvigni torej svoje oči in poglej, od kraja, kjer si, proti severu, proti jugu, proti vzhodu in proti zahodu.
15 For all the land which you see, to you will I give it, and to your seed for ever.
Kajti vso deželo, ki jo vidiš, bom dal tebi in tvojemu potomstvu na veke.
16 And I will make your seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall your seed also be numbered.
Tvojega semena bom naredil kakor zemeljskega prahu, tako da če človek lahko prešteje zemeljski prah, potem bo prešteto tudi tvoje seme.
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it to you.
Vstani, prehodi deželo po njeni dolžini in po njeni širini, kajti tebi jo bom dal.«
18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelled in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar to the LORD.
Potem je Abram odstranil svoj šotor in prišel ter prebival na mamrejski ravnini, ki je v Hebrónu in tam zgradil oltar Gospodu.
