Genesis 13
1 Abram went up out of Egypt: he, his wife, and all his possessions, and Lot with him, into the Negev.
Tad Ābrams aizgāja no Ēģiptes uz (Kanaāna) dienvidus zemi, viņš ar savu sievu un ar visu, kas viņam bija, un Lats līdz ar viņu.
2 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
Un Ābrams bija ļoti bagāts ar lopiem, ar sudrabu un ar zeltu.
3 He went on his journeys from the Negev even to Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
Un viņš gāja savu ceļu no dienvidus zemes uz Bēteli līdz tai vietai, kur iesākumā viņa telts bija starp Bēteli un starp Aju,
4 to the place where he had first built the altar. And there Abram called on the name of God.
Līdz tā altāra vietai, ko viņš iesākumā bija cēlis; un Ābrams tur piesauca Tā Kunga vārdu.
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
Un Latam, kas Ābramam gāja līdz, bija arīdzan avis un vērši un teltis.
6 The land was not able to support them while they stayed together, for they had so many possessions that they were unable to remain together.
Un tā zeme tos nepanesa, ka varētu kopā dzīvot, jo viņu manta bija liela, un tie nevarēja kopā dzīvot.
7 There was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram's livestock and the herdsmen of Lot's livestock. And the Canaanite and the Perizzite lived in the land at that time.
Un strīdus cēlās starp Ābrama lopu ganiem un Lata lopu ganiem; un Kanaānieši un Ferezieši dzīvoja tolaik tai zemē.
8 Abram said to Lot, "Please, let there be no strife between me and you, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are relatives.
Tad Ābrams sacīja uz Latu: lūdzams, lai jel strīdus nav starp mani un tevi, un starp maniem ganiem un taviem ganiem, jo mēs esam brāļi.
9 Isn't the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left."
Vai visa zeme nav tavā priekšā? Atšķiries jel no manis; ja tu gribi pa kreiso roku, tad es gribu pa labo, bet ja tu gribi pa labo roku, tad es iešu pa kreiso.
10 Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, like the garden of God, like the land of Egypt, in the direction of Zoar. (This was before God destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)
Un Lats pacēla savas acis un redzēja visu Jardānes apgabalu, ka tas bija bagāts ar ūdeni, (pirms nekā Tas Kungs Sodomu un Gomoru izpostīja), tā kā Tā Kunga dārzs, itin kā Ēģiptes zeme, kamēr nāk līdz Coārai.
11 So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated from each other.
Tad Lats izredzējās visu Jardānes apgabalu, un Lats aizgāja pret rītiem, un tie šķīrās viens no otra.
12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Ābrams dzīvoja Kanaāna zemē, un Lats dzīvoja Jardānes apgabala pilsētās un cēla savas teltis līdz Sodomai.
13 Now the people of Sodom were evil, sinning greatly against God.
Bet Sodomieši bija ļauni un ļoti grēcīgi pret To Kungu.
14 And God said to Abram after Lot had departed from him, "Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,
Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz Ābramu, kad Lats no viņa bija šķīries: pacel jel savas acis un lūko no tās vietas, kur tu esi, uz ziemeļa pusi un uz dienvidiem un uz rītiem un uz jūru.
15 for all the land which you see I will give to you and to your offspring forever.
Jo visu to zemi, ko tu redzi, Es došu tev un tavam dzimumam mūžīgi.
16 I will make your offspring as the dust of the earth, so that if one can count the dust of the earth, then your offspring also could be counted.
Un Es darīšu tavu dzimumu tā kā zemes pīšļus, ja kas varēs izskaitīt zemes pīšļus, tas varēs izskaitīt arī tavu dzimumu.
17 Arise, walk through the land in its length and in its breadth; for I will give it to you."
Celies, pārstaigā to zemi krustām šķērsām, jo tev Es to gribu dot.
18 Abram moved his tent, and came and lived by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to God.
Un Ābrams cēla teltis un nāca un dzīvoja starp Mamres ozoliem pie Hebrones, un uztaisīja tur Tam Kungam altāri.
