nasb@Genesis:11:1 @So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, he and his wife and all that belonged to him, and Lot with him.

nasb@Genesis:11:2 @Now Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver and in gold.

nasb@Genesis:11:3 @He went on his journeys from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

nasb@Genesis:11:4 @to the place of the altar which he had made there formerly; and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

nasb@Genesis:11:5 @Now Lot, who went with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents.

nasb@Genesis:11:6 @And the land could not sustain them while dwelling together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to remain together.

nasb@Genesis:11:7 @And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram's livestock and the herdsmen of Lot's livestock. Now the Canaanite and the Perizzite were dwelling then in the land.

nasb@Genesis:11:8 @So Abram said to Lot, "Please let there be no strife between you and me, nor between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are brothers.

nasb@Genesis:11:9" @Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me; if to the left, then I will go to the right; or if to the right, then I will go to the left."

nasb@Genesis:11:10 @Lot lifted up his eyes and saw all the valley of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere--this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah--like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt as you go to Zoar.

nasb@Genesis:11:11 @So Lot chose for himself all the valley of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward. Thus they separated from each other.

nasb@Genesis:11:12 @Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the valley, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.

nasb@Genesis:11:13 @Now the men of Sodom were wicked exceedingly and sinners against the LORD.

nasb@Genesis:11:14 @The LORD said to Abram, after Lot had separated from him, " Now lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward;

nasb@Genesis:11:15 @for all the land which you see, I will give it to you and to your descendants forever.

nasb@Genesis:11:16" @I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth, so that if anyone can number the dust of the earth, then your descendants can also be numbered.

nasb@Genesis:11:17" @Arise, walk about the land through its length and breadth; for I will give it to you."

nasb@Genesis:11:18 @Then Abram moved his tent and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and there he built an altar to the LORD.
