'''1''' And [[Abraham|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<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 24|Gen 24:35]], [[Psalm 112|Psa 112:3]], [[Proverbs, Chapter 10|Pro 10:22]]</ref>.

'''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<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 12|Gen 12:7-8]]</ref> 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<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 36|Gen 36:7]], [[Luke, Chapter 12|Luk 12:17-18]]</ref>, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together.

'''7''' And there was a strife<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 26|Gen 26:20]]</ref> 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<ref>[[Philippians, Chapter 2|Phi 2:14-15]]</ref>, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we ''be'' brethren<ref>[[Psalm 133|Psa 133:1]], [[Exodus, Chapter 2|Exo 2:13]]</ref>.

'''9''' ''Is'' not the whole land before thee?<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 20|Gen 20:15]]</ref> 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<ref>[[Romans, Chapter 12|Rom 12:18]], [[Hebrews, Chapter 12|Heb 12:14]], [[James, Chapter 3|Jam 3:13-18]]</ref>.

'''10''' And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan<ref>[[Psalm 107|Psa 107:34]], [[Deuteronomy, Chapter 34|Deu 34:3]]</ref>, that it was well watered every where, before the Lord destroyed [[Sodom]] and [[Gomorrah]]<ref>[[Psalm 107|Psa 107:34]], [[Genesis, Chapter 19|Gen 19:24]]</ref>, ''even'' as the garden of the Lord, like the land of [[Egypt]], as thou comest unto [[Zoar]]<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 19|Gen 19:22]], [[Genesis, Chapter 14|Gen 14:2]]</ref>.

'''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<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 19|Gen 19:29]]</ref>, and pitched ''his'' tent toward Sodom.

'''13''' But the men of Sodom ''were'' wicked<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 18|Gen 18:20]], [[Ezekiel, Chapter 16|Eze 16:49]], [[2nd Peter, Chapter 2|2 Pet 2:7-8]]</ref> and sinners<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 6|Gen 6:11]]</ref> before the Lord exceedingly.

'''14''' And the Lord said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes<ref>[[Isaiah, Chapter 49|Isa 49:18]]</ref>, and look from the place where thou art northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 28|Gen 28:14]]</ref>:

'''15''' For all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever<ref>[[2nd Chronicles, Chapter 20|2 Chr 20:7]]</ref>.

'''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<ref>[[Genesis, Chapter 26|Gen 26:4]], [[Exodus, Chapter 32|Exo 32:13]], [[Numbers, Chapter 23|Num 23:10]], [[Deuteronomy, Chapter 1|Deu 1:10]], [[1st Chronicles, Chapter 27|1 Chr 27:23]], [[Jeremiah, Chapter 33|Jer 33:22]], [[Romans, Chapter 4|Rom 4:16]],[[Hebrews, Chapter 11|Heb 11:12]]</ref>.

'''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.
