Genesis 13

1 And Abram goes up from Egypt (he and his wife, and all that he has, and Lot with him) toward the south;

Then Abram went vp from Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him toward the South.

2 and Abram [is] exceedingly wealthy in livestock, in silver, and in gold.

And Abram was very rich in cattell, in siluer and in golde.

3 And he goes on his journeys from the south, even to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the commencement, between Bethel and Hai—

And he went on his iourney from ye South toward Beth-el, to the place where his tent had bene at ye beginning, betweene Beth-el and Haai,

4 to the place of the altar which he made there at the first, and there Abram preaches in the Name of YHWH.

Vnto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the Name of the Lord.

5 And also to Lot, who is going with Abram, there has been sheep and oxen and tents;

And Lot also, who went with Abram, had sheepe, and cattell and tentes,

6 and the land has not permitted them to dwell together, for their substance has been much, and they have not been able to dwell together;

So that the land coulde not beare them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they coulde not dwell together.

7 and there is a strife between those feeding Abram’s livestock and those feeding Lot’s livestock; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite [are] then dwelling in the land.

Also there was debate betweene ye heardmen of Abrams cattell, and the heardmen of Lots cattell. (and the Canaanites and the Perizzites dwelled at that time in the land.)

8 And Abram says to Lot, “Please let there not be strife between me and you, and between my shepherds and your shepherds, for we [are] men—brothers.

Then saide Abram vnto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, betweene thee and me, neither betweene mine heardmen and thine heardmen: for we be brethren.

9 Is not all the land before you? Please be parted from me; if to the left, then I to the right; and if to the right, then I to the left.”

Is not the whole land before thee? depart I pray thee from me: if thou wilt take the left hand, then I will goe to the right: or if thou goe to the right hand, then I will take the left.

10 And Lot lifts up his eyes, and sees the whole circuit of the Jordan that it [is] all a watered country (before YHWH’s destroying Sodom and Gomorrah, as YHWH’s garden, as the land of Egypt), in your coming toward Zoar,

So when Lot lifted vp his eyes, he saw that all the plaine of Iorden was watered euery where: (for before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorah, it was as the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest vnto Zoar)

11 and Lot chooses for himself the whole circuit of the Jordan; and Lot journeys from the east, and they are parted—a man from his companion;

Then Lot chose vnto him all the plaine of Iorden, and tooke his iourney from the East: and they departed the one from the other.

12 Abram has dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot has dwelt in the cities of the circuit, and moves [his] tent to Sodom;

Abram dwelled in the lande of Canaan, and Lot abode in the cities of the plaine, and pitched his tent euen to Sodom.

13 and the men of Sodom [are] evil, and sinners before YHWH exceedingly.

Now the men of Sodom were wicked and exceeding sinners against the Lord.

14 And YHWH said to Abram, after Lot’s being parted from him, “Now lift up your eyes and look from the place where you [are], northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward;

Then the Lord saide vnto Abram, (after that Lot was departed from him) Lift vp thine eyes nowe, and looke from the place where thou art, Northward, and Southward, and Eastwarde, and Westward:

15 for the whole of the land which you are seeing, I give it to you and to your Seed for all time.

For all the land, which thou seest, will I giue vnto thee and to thy seede for euer,

16 And I have set your seed as dust of the earth, so that, if one is able to number the dust of the earth, even your seed is numbered;

And I will make thy seede, as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seede be numbred.

17 rise, go up and down through the land, to its length, and to its breadth, for to you I give it.”

Arise, walke through the land, in ye length thereof, and breadth thereof: for I will giue it vnto thee.

18 And Abram moves [his] tent, and comes, and dwells among the oaks of Mamre, which [are] in Hebron, and builds there an altar to YHWH.

Then Abram remoued his tent, and came and dwelled in the plaine of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and builded there an altar vnto ye Lord.
