Genesis 13

1 Abram and his nephew


Lot, their families, flocks
and herds settled in
Bethel in Canaan, living
alongside the local
Canaanite tribes.
Abraham had become
very wealthy in livestock
plus silver and gold.

2 Lots too had flocks,


herds and tents.

3 But there was not


enough pasture for both
Abram’s and Lot’s
animals to graze.
4 And there was not
enough water for all the
animals either.

5 Quarrels arose between


the herdsmen looking
after Abram’s and Lot’s
animals.

6 So Abraham said to Lot,


‘Let’s not have any more
quarrelling between our
herders. The whole land
is before us. Let’s part
and go our separate
ways. If you choose to
go to the left, I’ll go to
the right

7 Lot saw that the plain of


Jordan (an area around
what we now call the
Dead Sea) was well
watered with good
pasture lands.

8 However, the people


living in this area were
very disobedient. Two
cities in particular,
Sodom and Gomorrah,
were full of wickedness.
But Lot chose this rich,
fertile area as the best
place for his family to
live.
9 So Lot, his family and his
flocks and herds moved
off east to live in the
plain of Jordan. They
pitched their tents near
the city of Sodom.

10 When Lot had gone, the


Lord spoke to Abram:
‘Look all around you. All
the land you see is for
you and your offspring
forever.

11 ‘I will make your


offspring like the dust,
impossible to count. Go
and walk through the
land for I am giving it to
you.’

12 Abram moved west of


where Lot had settled in
an area called Hebron.

13 He pitched his tent near


some large trees.
14 Then he built an altar to
God to worship the Lord
in this new place he and
his family were living.
