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 Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
А беше Аврам врло богат стоком, сребром и златом.
3 And he went on his journeys from the South even to Beth-el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Ai;
И иђаше својим путевима од југа све до Ветиља, до места где му прво беше шатор, између Ветиља и Гаја,
4 unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.
До места, где пре беше начинио жртвеник; и онде призва Аврам име Господње.
5 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
А и Лот који иђаше с Аврамом имаше оваца и говеда и шатора.
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.
И земља не могаше их носити заједно, јер благо њихово беше велико да не могоше живети заједно,
7 And there was a strife between the herdmen of Abram’s cattle and the herdmen of Lot’s cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then 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 And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; 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 Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: if [thou wilt take] the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if [thou take] the right hand, then 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 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, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest unto Zoar.
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 him all the Plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
И Лот изабра себи сву равницу јорданску, и отиде Лот на исток; и разделише се један од другог:
12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
Аврам живљаше у земљи хананској, а Лот живљаше по градовима у оној равници премештајући своје шаторе до Содома.
13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners against the LORD exceedingly.
А људи у Содому беху неваљали, и грешаху Господу веома.
14 And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward:
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 which thou seest, to thee will I give it, 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: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
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, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.
Устани, и пролази ту земљу у дужину и у ширину; јер ћу је теби дати.
18 And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the LORD.
И Аврам диже шаторе, и дође и насели се у равници мамријској, која је код Хеврона, и онде начини жртвеник Господу.
