Genesis 13
BasisBijbel
Abram en Lot gaan uit elkaar
13 Zo vertrok Abram uit Egypte naar het Zuiderland,[a] met zijn vrouw en alles wat hij had. Lot ging met hem mee. 2 Abram was heel rijk: hij had veel vee, zilver en goud. 3 Hij trok vanuit het Zuiderland terug naar Bet-El. Hij ging weer naar de plek waar hij de eerste keer zijn tenten had neergezet, tussen Bet-El en Ai. 4 Daar had Abram toen een altaar voor de Heer gebouwd. Ook nu bracht hij Hem daar weer offers.
5 Ook Lot, die met Abram meeging, had schapen en koeien en tenten. 6 Maar er groeide in dat gebied niet genoeg gras voor al die dieren, want ze hadden allebei heel veel vee. Daardoor konden ze er niet samen blijven wonen. 7 Er ontstond ruzie tussen de herders van Abrams vee en de herders van Lots vee. Bovendien woonden de Kanaänieten en de Perezieten met hun vee in dat gebied. 8 Daarom zei Abram tegen Lot: "Laten we alsjeblieft geen ruzie maken. Het is niet goed als er ruzie is tussen mijn herders en jouw herders. We zijn immers familie van elkaar. 9 Je kan toch wonen waar je wil? Laten we uit elkaar gaan. Als jij naar links wil gaan, zal ik naar rechts gaan. Als jij naar rechts wil gaan, zal ik naar links gaan." 10 Lot keek rond en zag dat er in het hele gebied van de Jordaan veel water was. Voordat de Heer Sodom en Gomorra verwoestte, was het er in de richting van Zoar zo mooi als de tuin van de Heer, of als Egypte. 11 Daarom koos Lot voor zichzelf het hele gebied van de Jordaan uit en trok naar het oosten. Zo gingen ze uit elkaar. 12 Abram bleef in Kanaän wonen. Lot ging in de steden van het Jordaangebied wonen. Hij zette zijn tenten op tot vlak bij de stad Sodom. 13 De mannen van Sodom waren erg slecht. Ze deden alles wat de Heer verboden had.
Gods belofte aan Abram
14 Toen Lot bij Abram was weggegaan, zei de Heer tegen Abram: "Kijk vanaf deze plek eens naar het noorden, zuiden, oosten en westen. 15 Het hele land dat je ziet, zal Ik voor altijd aan jou en je familie ná jou geven. 16 Ik zal van jou een groot volk maken, zo ontelbaar als het stof op de aarde. 17 Kom, trek rond door het hele land, want Ik zal het aan jou geven." 18 Daarna zette Abram zijn tenten op bij de eikenbomen van Mamré bij Hebron. Daar ging hij wonen. En hij bouwde er een altaar voor de Heer.

Abrão volta do Egito
13 Subiu, pois, Abrão do Egito para a banda do Sul, ele, e sua mulher, e tudo o que tinha, e com ele Ló. 2 E ia Abrão muito rico em gado, em prata e em ouro. 3 E fez as suas jornadas do Sul até Betel, até ao lugar onde, ao princípio, estivera a sua tenda, entre Betel e Ai; 4 até ao lugar do altar que, dantes, ali tinha feito; e Abrão invocou ali o nome do Senhor. 5 E também Ló, que ia com Abrão, tinha rebanhos, e vacas, e tendas. 6 E não tinha capacidade a terra para poderem habitar juntos, porque a sua fazenda era muita; de maneira que não podiam habitar juntos.
Abrão e Ló separam-se
7 E houve contenda entre os pastores do gado de Abrão e os pastores do gado de Ló; e os cananeus e os ferezeus habitavam, então, na terra.
8 E disse Abrão a Ló: Ora, não haja contenda entre mim e ti e entre os meus pastores e os teus pastores, porque irmãos somos. 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. 10 E levantou Ló os seus olhos e viu toda a campina do Jordão, que era toda bem-regada, antes de o Senhor ter destruído Sodoma e Gomorra, e era como o jardim do Senhor, como a terra do Egito, quando se entra em Zoar. 11 Então, Ló escolheu para si toda a campina do Jordão e partiu Ló para o Oriente; e apartaram-se um do outro. 12 Habitou Abrão na terra de Canaã, e Ló habitou nas cidades da campina e armou as suas tendas até Sodoma. 13 Ora, eram maus os varões de Sodoma e grandes pecadores contra o Senhor.
14 E disse o Senhor a Abrão, depois que Ló se apartou dele: Levanta, agora, os teus olhos e olha desde o lugar onde estás, para a banda do norte, e do sul, e do oriente, e do ocidente; 15 porque toda esta terra que vês te hei de dar a ti e à tua semente, para sempre. 16 E farei a tua semente como o pó da terra; de maneira que, se alguém puder contar o pó da terra, também a tua semente será contada. 17 Levanta-te, percorre essa terra, no seu comprimento e na sua largura; porque a ti a darei. 18 E Abrão armou as suas tendas, e veio, e habitou nos carvalhais de Manre, que estão junto a Hebrom; e edificou ali um altar ao Senhor.

New International Version
Abram and Lot Separate
13 So Abram went up from Egypt(A) to the Negev,(B) with his wife and everything he had, and Lot(C) went with him. 2 Abram had become very wealthy(D) in livestock(E) and in silver and gold.
3 From the Negev(F) he went from place to place until he came to Bethel,(G) to the place between Bethel and Ai(H) where his tent had been earlier 4 and where he had first built an altar.(I) There Abram called on the name of the Lord.(J)
5 Now Lot,(K) who was moving about with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents. 6 But the land could not support them while they stayed together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to stay together.(L) 7 And quarreling(M) arose between Abram’s herders and Lot’s. The Canaanites(N) and Perizzites(O) were also living in the land(P) at that time.
8 So Abram said to Lot,(Q) “Let’s not have any quarreling between you and me,(R) or between your herders and mine, for we are close relatives.(S) 9 Is not the whole land before you? Let’s part company. If you go to the left, I’ll go to the right; if you go to the right, I’ll go to the left.”(T)
10 Lot looked around and saw that the whole plain(U) of the Jordan toward Zoar(V) was well watered, like the garden of the Lord,(W) like the land of Egypt.(X) (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom(Y) and Gomorrah.)(Z) 11 So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company: 12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan,(AA) while Lot(AB) lived among the cities of the plain(AC) and pitched his tents near Sodom.(AD) 13 Now the people of Sodom(AE) were wicked and were sinning greatly against the Lord.(AF)
14 The Lord said to Abram after Lot had parted from him, “Look around from where you are, to the north and south, to the east and west.(AG) 15 All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring[a] forever.(AH) 16 I will make your offspring like the dust of the earth, so that if anyone could count the dust, then your offspring could be counted.(AI) 17 Go, walk through the length and breadth of the land,(AJ) for I am giving it to you.”(AK)
18 So Abram went to live near the great trees of Mamre(AL) at Hebron,(AM) where he pitched his tents. There he built an altar to the Lord.(AN)

Genesis 13
King James Version
13 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his journeys from the south even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai;
4 Unto the place of the altar, which he had make there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the Lord.
5 And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
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.
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.
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 be brethren.
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 depart to the right hand, then I will go to the left.
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 unto Zoar.
11 Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
12 Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
13 But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the Lord exceedingly.
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:
15 For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, 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, then shall thy seed also be numbered.
17 Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto thee.
18 Then Abram removed his tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and built there an altar unto the Lord.
