Genesis 13

1 So Abram came up out of Egypt he and his wife and all that he had and Lot with him, towards the South.

Than Abram departed out of Egipte both he and his wyfe and all that he had and Lot wyth hym vnto the south.

2 Now, Abram, was very rich, —in cattle, in silver and in gold.

Abram was very rych in catell syluer and gold.

3 And he went his way, by his removals, from the South even as far as to Bethel, —as far as the place where his tent was at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai:

And he went on his iourney fro the south even vnto BETHEL ad vnto the place where his tente was at the fyrst tyme betwene BETHEL and Ay

4 unto the place of the altar, which he made there at first, —and Abram called there, on the name of Yahweh.

and vnto the place of the aulter which he made before. And there called Abram vpon the name of the LORde.

5 Now, Lot also, who was going with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.

Lot also which went wyth hym had shepe catell and tentes:

6 And the land suffered them not to dwell together, —because their substance had become, great, so that they could not dwell together.

so that the londe was not abill to receaue them that they myght dwell together for the substance of their riches was so greate that they coude not dwell together

7 And there arose a strife betwixt the herdmen of Abram, and the herdmen of Lot. Now the Canaanite and the Perizzite, were then dwelling in the land.

And there fell a stryfe betwene the herdmen of Abrams catell and the herdmen of Lots catell. Moreouer the Cananytes and the Pherysites dwelled at that tyme in the lande.

8 So then Abram said unto Lot Pray let not cause of strife arise betwixt me and thee, or betwixt my herdmen and thy herdmen; for brethren, are we.

Than sayd Abram vnto Lot: let there be no stryfe I praye the betwene the and me and betwene my herdmen and thyne for we be brethren.

9 Is not, all the land, before thee? I pray thee, separate thyself from me, —if to the left hand, then I will go to the right, if to the right hand, then I will go to the left.

Ys not all the hole lande before the? Departe I praye the fro me. Yf thou wylt take the lefte hande I wyll take the right: Or yf thou take the right hande I wyll take the left.

10 So Lot lifted up his eyes and beheld all the circuit of the Jordan, that the whole of it, was well-watered, —before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the Garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, as thou enterest into Zoar.

And Lot lyft vp hys eyes and beheld all the contre aboute Iordane which was a plenteous contre of water every where before the LORde destroyed Sodoma and Gomorra. Even as the garden of the LORde and as the lande of Egipte tyll thou come to Zoar.

11 And Lot chose for himself all the circuit of the Jordan, so Lot brake up eastwards, —and they separated themselves, each man from his brother:

Than Lot chose all the costes of Iordane ad toke hys iourney from the east. And so departed the one brother from the other.

12 Abram, fixed his dwelling in the land of Canaan, —but, Lot, fixed his dwelling among the cities, of the circuit, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

Abram dwelled in the lande of Canaan. And lot in the cytes of the playne and tented tyll he came to Sodome.

13 Now, the men of Sodom were base and sinful, —against Yahweh, exceedingly.

But the men of sodome were wyked and synned exceadyngly agenst the LORde.

14 And, Yahweh, said unto Abram after that Lot had separated himself from him, Lift up, I pray thee thine eyes and look, from the place where thou art, —northward and southward and eastward and westward;

And the LORde sayed vnto Abram after that Lot was departed from hym: lyfte vp thyne eyes and loke from ye place where thou art northward southward eastward and westward

15 for all the land which thou art beholding—to thee, will I give it, and to thy seed unto times age-abiding;

for all the lande which thou seiste wyll I gyue vnto the and to thy seed for ever.

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, thy seed also, may be numbered.

And I wyll make thy seed as the dust of the erth: so that yf a ma can nombre the dust of the erth than shall thy seed also be nombred.

17 Rise! go up and down in the land, to the length thereof and to the breadth thereof, for to thee, will I give it.

Aryse and walke aboute in the lande in the length of it ad in the bredth for I wyll geue it vnto the.

18 So Abram moved his tent and came in and dwelt among the oaks of Mamre, which were in Hebron, —and built there an altar to Yahweh.

Than Abra toke downe hys tente and went and dwelled in the okegrove of Mamre which is in Ebron and buylded there an altar to the LORde.
