CHAP. XIII. 1 Abram departeth out of Egypt. 4 He calleth vpon the Name of the Lord. 11 Lot departeth from him. 13 The wickednes of the Sodomites. 14 The promise made to Abram is renued. 18 Abram buildeth an altar to the Lord.


1   Then note Abram went vp from Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him toward the South.


2   And Abram was very rich in cattell, in siluer and in golde.


3   And he went on his iourney from þe; South toward note Beth-el, to the place where his tent had bene at þe; beginning, betweene Beth-el & Haai,


4   Vnto the place of the note altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the Name of the Lord.


5   ¶2; And Lot also, who went with Abram, had sheepe, and cattell and tentes,


6   So that the land coulde not note beare them, that they might dwell together: for their note substance was great, so that they coulde not dwell together.


7   Also there was debate betweene þe; heardmen of Abrams cattell, & the heardmen of Lots cattell. (and the note Canaanites and the Perizzites dwelled at that time in the land.)


8   Then saide Abram vnto Lot, Let there be no note strife, I pray thee, betweene thee and me, neither betweene mine heardmen & thine heardmen: for we be brethren.


9   Is not the whole land before thee? depart I pray thee from me: if thou wilt note take the left hand, then I will goe to the right: or if thou goe to the right hand, then I will take the left.


10   So when Lot lifted vp his eyes, he saw that all the plaine of Iorden was watered euery where: (for before the Lorde destroyed Sodom and Gomorah, it was as the note garden of the Lorde, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest vnto Zoar)


11   Then Lot chose vnto him all the plaine of Iorden, and tooke his iourney from the East: and they departed the note one from the other.

-- --

The promise made to Abram is renued.


12   Abram dwelled in the lande of Canaan, and Lot abode in the cities of the plaine, and pitched his tent euen to Sodom.


13   Now the men of Sodom were wicked and exceeding note sinners against the Lord.


14   ¶2; Then the Lord saide vnto note Abram, (after that Lot was departed from him) Lift vp thine eyes nowe, and looke from the place where thou art, Northward, and Southward, and Eastwarde, and Westward:


15   For all note the land, which thou seest, will I giue vnto thee and to thy seede for note euer,


16   And I will make thy seede, as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then shall thy seede be numbred.


17   Arise, walke through the land, in þe; length thereof, and breadth thereof: for I will giue it vnto thee.


18   Then Abram remoued his tent, and came and dwelled in the plaine of Mamre, which is in Hebron, and builded there an altar vnto þe; Lorde.
