    Genesis 13

    1 Abram traveled from Egypt, along with his wife and everyone who belonged to his household a13:1 Lit. who pertained to him —including Lot—to the Negev. b13:1 i.e. the southern regions of the Sinai peninsula; cf. Josh 10:40ISV — Genesis 13:1

    2 Now Abram had become quite wealthy in livestock, silver, and gold.ISV — Genesis 13:2

    3 He journeyed by stages from the Negev c13:3 i.e. the southern regions of the Sinai peninsula; cf. Josh 10:40 to Bethel, the place where his tent had formerly been, between Bethel and Ai,ISV — Genesis 13:3

    4 where he had first built an altar. There Abram called on the name of the LORD.ISV — Genesis 13:4

    5 Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had flocks of sheep, herds, and tents.ISV — Genesis 13:5

    6 But the land could not support them living together, because they had so many livestock that they could not stay together.ISV — Genesis 13:6

    7 There was strife between the herdsmen in charge of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen in charge of Lot’s livestock. Also, at that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land.ISV — Genesis 13:7

    8 So Abram told Lot, “Please, let’s not have strife between you and me, or between your herdsmen and my herdsmen, since we are relatives. d13:8 Lit. brothersISV — Genesis 13:8

    9 Isn’t the whole land available to you? Let’s separate: If you go e13:9 The Heb. lacks you go to the left, then I will go to the right; if you go f13:9 The Heb. lacks you go to the right, then I will go to the left.”ISV — Genesis 13:9

    10 Lot looked around and noticed that the whole Jordan plain as far as Zoar was well-watered like the garden of the LORD or like the land of Egypt. (This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)ISV — Genesis 13:10

    11 So Lot chose for himself all the Jordan plain. Then Lot traveled eastward, and they separated from each other.ISV — Genesis 13:11

    12 So Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the plain, setting up his tent in the vicinity of Sodom.ISV — Genesis 13:12

    13 Now the men of Sodom were particularly evil and sinful in their defiance of g13:13 Lit. sinful before the LORD.ISV — Genesis 13:13

    14 After Lot had separated from Abram, the LORD told Abram, “Look off to the north, south h13:14 Lit. the Negev , east, and west i13:14 Lit. the sea from where you’re living,ISV — Genesis 13:14

    15 because I’m going to give you and your descendants all of the land that you see—forever!ISV — Genesis 13:15

    16 I’ll make your descendants as plentiful as j13:16 The Heb. lacks plentiful as the specks of k13:16 The Heb. lacks the specks of dust of the earth, so that if one could count the specks of l13:16 The Heb. lacks the specks of dust of the earth, then your descendants could also be counted.ISV — Genesis 13:16

    17 Get up! Walk throughout the length and breadth of the land, because I’m going to give it to you.”ISV — Genesis 13:17

    18 So Abram moved his tent and settled beside the oaks of Mamre that are by Hebron, where he built an altar to the LORD.ISV — Genesis 13:18
