< Genesis 13 >

1 And Abram returned from Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
ascendit ergo Abram de Aegypto ipse et uxor eius et omnia quae habebat et Loth cum eo ad australem plagam
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
erat autem dives valde in possessione argenti et auri
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 Ai;
reversusque est per iter quo venerat a meridie in Bethel usque ad locum ubi prius fixerat tabernaculum inter Bethel et Ai
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.
in loco altaris quod fecerat prius et invocavit ibi nomen Domini
5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
sed et Loth qui erat cum Abram fuerunt greges ovium et armenta et tabernacula
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.
nec poterat eos capere terra ut habitarent simul erat quippe substantia eorum multa et non quibant habitare communiter
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 dwelt then in the land.
unde et facta est rixa inter pastores gregum Abram et Loth eo autem tempore Chananeus et Ferezeus habitabant in illa terra
8 And Abram said to Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we are brethren.
dixit ergo Abram ad Loth ne quaeso sit iurgium inter me et te et inter pastores meos et pastores tuos fratres enim sumus
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 wilt depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
ecce universa terra coram te est recede a me obsecro si ad sinistram ieris ego ad dexteram tenebo si tu dexteram elegeris ego ad sinistram pergam
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 thou comest to Zoar.
elevatis itaque Loth oculis vidit omnem circa regionem Iordanis quae universa inrigabatur antequam subverteret Dominus Sodomam et Gomorram sicut paradisus Domini et sicut Aegyptus venientibus in Segor
11 Then Lot chose for himself all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
elegitque sibi Loth regionem circa Iordanem et recessit ab oriente divisique sunt alterutrum a fratre suo
12 Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
Abram habitavit in terra Chanaan Loth moratus est in oppidis quae erant circa Iordanem et habitavit in Sodomis
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
homines autem Sodomitae pessimi erant et peccatores coram Domino nimis
14 And the LORD said to Abram, after 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:
dixitque Dominus ad Abram postquam divisus est Loth ab eo leva oculos tuos et vide a loco in quo nunc es ad aquilonem et ad meridiem ad orientem et ad occidentem
15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
omnem terram quam conspicis tibi dabo et semini tuo usque in sempiternum
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.
faciamque semen tuum sicut pulverem terrae si quis potest hominum numerare pulverem semen quoque tuum numerare poterit
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it to thee.
surge et perambula terram in longitudine et in latitudine sua quia tibi daturus sum eam
18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar to the LORD.
movens igitur Abram tabernaculum suum venit et habitavit iuxta convallem Mambre quod est in Hebron aedificavitque ibi altare Domino
