Young's Literal Translation
So
Abram went
up out
of
Egypt into
the
Negev—
he and his wife and all his
possessions—
and Lot was
with him .
And
Abram goeth
up from
Egypt (
he and his wife ,
and all that
he
hath,
and Lot with him )
towards
the
south;
And Abram had
become
extremely
wealthy in livestock
and
silver and gold.
and Abram `is'
exceedingly
wealthy in cattle,
in
silver ,
and in
gold.
From
the
Negev
he journeyed
from place
to
place
toward
Bethel, until
he
came
to
the place between
Bethel
and
Ai
where his tent had formerly
been pitched
,
And
he goeth
on
his
journeyings
from the
south,
even
unto
Bethel, unto
the place where his tent had been at
the
commencement
, between
Bethel
and
Hai
--
to
the site
where
he
had
built
the altar .
And there Abram called
on
the name of the
LORD
.
unto
the place
of
the altar which
he
made
there
at
the
first,
and there doth
Abram preach
in
the name of Jehovah
.
Now
Lot, who was
traveling
with Abram, also
had
flocks
and herds
and tents .
And
also
to
Lot, who is
going
with Abram, there
hath
been
sheep
and oxen
and tents ;
But
the land was
unable
to
support
both
of
them while
they
stayed
together, for they
had
so
many
possessions
that
they were
unable
to coexist.
and
the land hath
not
suffered
them to
dwell
together, for their
substance
hath
been
much,
and
they have
not
been
able
to dwell
together;
And there was
discord
between the
herdsmen
of
Abram
and the
herdsmen
of
Lot.
At
that
time
the Canaanites
and the Perizzites
were
also
living
in the land.
and there is
a
strife
between those
feeding
Abram's
cattle
and those
feeding
Lot's
cattle;
and
the Canaanite
and the Perizzite
`are'
then
dwelling
in the land.
So
Abram said
to
Lot, “Please
let there be no
contention
between you
and
me, or
between
your
herdsmen
and my herdsmen.
After
all
, we are brothers
.
And
Abram saith
unto
Lot, `
Let there not,
I
pray
thee,
be strife
between me and
thee
, and between
my shepherds
and
thy
shepherds
, for
we `
are '
men
--
brethren
.
Is not the whole
land before you
? Now
separate
yourself
from me .
If you
go
to the left, I will
go
to the right; if you
go
to the right, I will
go
to the left. ”
Is not all
the land before thee
? be
parted,
I
pray
thee,
from me ;
if to the left, then
I to the right; and
if to the right, then
I to the left. '
And Lot looked
out
and saw
that
the whole plain
of the Jordan ,
all the
way
to
Zoar,
was
well
watered like
the
garden of
the
LORD
, like
the land of Egypt .
(This
was
before
the
LORD
destroyed
Sodom
and
Gomorrah.
)
And Lot lifteth
up
his
eyes,
and seeth
the whole circuit
of the Jordan that
it
`is'
all a
watered country
(before
Jehovah's
destroying
Sodom
and
Gomorrah,
as
Jehovah's
garden, as
the land of Egypt ,
) in
thy
coming
toward
Zoar,
So
Lot chose
the whole plain
of the Jordan for
himself
and set
out
toward
the east .
And
Abram
and Lot
parted company.
and
Lot chooseth
for
himself
the whole circuit
of the Jordan ;
and Lot
journeyeth
from
the east ,
and they
are
parted --
a
man
from
his
companion;
Abram lived
in the land of Canaan, but
Lot settled
in the cities of the plain
and pitched
his
tent
toward
Sodom .
Abram hath
dwelt
in the land of Canaan, and
Lot hath
dwelt
in the cities of the circuit,
and tenteth
unto
Sodom ;
But
the men of Sodom were
wicked
, sinning
greatly
against
the
LORD
.
and
the men of Sodom `are'
evil
, and
sinners
before
Jehovah
exceedingly
.
After
Lot
had
departed,
the
LORD
said to
Abram, “Now
lift up your
eyes from the place where you
are
, and
look
to
the
north
and
south
and east
and west
,
And
Jehovah
said unto
Abram, after
Lot's
being
parted
from
him,
`
Lift up ,
I
pray
thee,
thine
eyes ,
and
look
from the place where thou
`art'
, northward,
and southward,
and eastward
, and
westward;
for all
the land that
you
see
, I will
give to
you
and your
offspring
forever
.
for the whole
of
the
land which
thou
are
seeing
, to
thee
I give it,
and to
thy
seed
--
to
the
age
.
I will
make
your
offspring
like
the
dust of the earth, so that if one could
count
the dust of the earth, then
your
offspring
could
be
counted.
And
I have
set
thy
seed
as
dust of the earth, so that ,
if one is
able
to
number
the dust of the earth, even
thy
seed
is
numbered;
Get
up and walk
around
the land, through
its length and breadth, for I will
give it to
you
. ”
rise,
go
up and down
through
the land, to
its length ,
and to
its
breadth, for to
thee
I give it. '
So
Abram moved
his
tent
and went
to
live
near
the Oaks of Mamre at
Hebron, where
he
built
an altar to the
LORD
.
And
Abram tenteth,
and cometh,
and
dwelleth
among
the oaks of Mamre ,
which
`are'
in
Hebron, and
buildeth
there
an altar to Jehovah
.
