Genesis 13:5–11

⁵And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents. ⁶And ^cthe land was not able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, so that they could not dwell together. ⁷And there was ^da strife between the herdmen of Abram’s cattle and the herdmen of Lot’s cattle: ^eand the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelled then in the land. ⁸And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmen and thy herdmen; for we be ^f†brethren. ^9gIs not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me: ^hif 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. ¹⁰And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all ^hthe plain of Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before the Lord ⁱdestroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, ^keven as the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto ^lZoar. ¹¹Then Lot chose him all the plain of Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
