Genesis 13:8-11

81So AbramH87 saidH559 to LotH3876, “PleaseH4994 let there be noH408 strifeH4808 betweenH996 you and me, nor betweenH996 my herdsmenH7462 and your herdsmenH7462, for we are brothersH251.

9Is not the wholeH3605 landH776 beforeH6440 you? PleaseH4994 separateH6504 from me; ifH518 to the leftH8040, then I will goH3231 to the rightH3231; or ifH518 to the rightH3225, then I will goH8041 to the leftH8041.”

10LotH3876 liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869 and sawH7200 allH3605 the 23valleyH3603 of the JordanH3383, that it was wellH4945 wateredH4945 everywhereH3605--this was beforeH6440 the LordH3068 4destroyedH7843 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017--like 5the gardenH1588 of the LordH3068, 6like the landH776 of EgyptH4714 as you goH935 to 7ZoarH6820.

11So LotH3876 choseH977 for himself allH3605 the 8valleyH3603 of the JordanH3383, and LotH3876 journeyedH5265 eastwardH6924. Thus they separatedH6504 from eachH376 otherH251.
