Genesis 13:8-11
8And AbramH87 saidH559 unto LotH3876, Let there beH1961 noH408 strifeH4808, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdmenH7462 and thy herdmenH7462; for weH582 be brethrenH251.1
9Is not the whole landH776 before theeH6440? separate thyselfH6504, I pray thee, from me: if thou wilt take the left handH8040, then I will go to the rightH3231; or if thou depart to the right handH3225, then I will go to the leftH8041.
10And LotH3876 lifted upH5375 his eyesH5869, and beheldH7200 all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383, that it was well wateredH4945 every where, beforeH6440 YhwhH3068 destroyedH7843 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, even as the gardenH1588 of YhwhH3068, like the landH776 of EgyptH4714, as thou comestH935 unto ZoarH6820.
11Then LotH3876 choseH977 him all the plainH3603 of JordanH3383; and LotH3876 journeyedH5265 eastH6924: and they separated themselvesH6504 the oneH376 from the otherH251.
