2 aAbram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he went on his journey afrom the South as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
4 to the aplace of the altar which he had made there at first. And there Abram bcalled on the name of the Lord.
5 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.
6 Now athe land was not able to support them, that they might dwell together, for their possessions were so great that they could not dwell together.
7 And there was astrife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. bThe Canaanites and the Perizzites then dwelt in the land.
8 So Abram said to Lot, a“Please let there be no strife between you and me, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen; for we are brethren.
9 aIs not the whole land before you? Please bseparate from me. cIf you take the left, then I will go to the right; or, if you go to the right, then I will go to the left.”
