Gênesis 13
1 Subiu, pois, Abrão do Egypto para a banda do Sul, elle e sua mulher, e tudo o que tinha, e com elle Lot.
And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the South.
2 E ia Abrão muito rico em gado, em prata, e em oiro.
And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 E fez as suas jornadas do Sul até Beth-el, até ao logar onde ao principio estivera a sua tenda, entre Beth-el e Ai;
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,
4 Até ao logar do altar que d'antes ali tinha feito; e Abrão invocou ali o nome do Senhor.
to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first. And Abram called on the name of Jehovah there.
5 E tambem Lot, que ia com Abrão, tinha rebanhos, e vaccas, e tendas.
And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
6 E não tinha capacidade a terra para poderem habitar juntos; porque a sua fazenda era muita; de maneira que não podiam habitar juntos.
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.
7 E houve contenda entre os pastores do gado de Abrão, e os pastores do gado de Lot: e os Cananeus e os Perizeus habitavam então na terra.
And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle. And the Canaanite and the Perizzite then dwelt in the land.
8 E disse Abrão a Lot: Ora não haja contenda entre mim e ti, e entre os meus pastores e os teus pastores, porque irmãos varões somos.
And Abram said to Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen, for we are brothers.
9 Não está toda a terra diante de ti? Eia, pois, aparta-te de mim; se escolheres a esquerda, irei para a direita; e se a direita escolheres, eu irei para a esquerda.
Is not the whole land before thee? Separate thyself, I pray thee, from me. If the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if the right hand, then I will go to the left.
10 E levantou Lot os seus olhos, e viu toda a campina do Jordão, que era toda bem regada, antes do Senhor ter destruido Sodoma e Gomorrha, e era como o jardim do Senhor, como a terra do Egypto, quando se entra em Zoar.
And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere (before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou go to Zoar.
11 Então Lot escolheu para si toda a campina do Jordão, e partiu Lot para o Oriente, e apartaram-se um do outro.
So Lot chose for himself all the Plain of the Jordan. And Lot journeyed east, and they separated themselves the one from the other.
12 Habitou Abrão na terra de Canaan, e Lot habitou nas cidades da campina, e armou as suas tendas até Sodoma.
Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan. And Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
13 Ora eram maus os varões de Sodoma, e grandes peccadores contra o Senhor.
Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against Jehovah.
14 E disse o Senhor a Abrão, depois que Lot se apartou d'elle: Levanta agora os teus olhos, e olha desde o logar onde estás, para a banda do Norte, e do Sul, e do Oriente, e do Occidente;
And Jehovah said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou are, northward and southward and eastward and westward.
15 Porque toda esta terra que vês, te hei de dar a ti, e á tua semente, para sempre.
For all the land which thou see, to thee I will give it, and to thy seed forever.
16 E farei a tua semente como o pó da terra; de maneira que se alguem podér contar o pó da terra, tambem a tua semente será contada.
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 may thy seed also be numbered.
17 Levanta-te, percorre essa terra, no seu comprimento e na sua largura; porque a ti a darei.
Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it, for to thee I will give it.
18 E Abrão armou as suas tendas, e veiu, e habitou nos carvalhaes de Mamre, que estão junto a Hebron; e edificou ali um altar ao Senhor.
And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built an altar there to Jehovah.
