13:8 Abram said to Lot, “Let there be no quarreling between me and you, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are close relatives. 1 13:9 Is not the whole land before you? Separate yourself now from me. If you go 2 to the left, then I’ll go to the right, but if you go to the right, then I’ll go to the left.”
13:10 Lot looked up and saw 3 the whole region 4 of the Jordan. He noticed 5 that all of it was well-watered (before the Lord obliterated 6 Sodom and Gomorrah) 7 like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, 8 all the way to Zoar. 13:11 Lot chose for himself the whole region of the Jordan and traveled 9 toward the east.
So the relatives separated from each other. 10 13:12 Abram settled in the land of Canaan, but Lot settled among the cities of the Jordan plain 11 and pitched his tents next to Sodom. 13:13 (Now 12 the people 13 of Sodom were extremely wicked rebels against the Lord.) 14
