¹And Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) went up out of Mitzrayim [Egypt] he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot (Covering) with him, into the south.

²And Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) [was] very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

³And he went on his journeys from the south even to Beit-El (House of EL the Powerful God) , unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beit-El (The House of the Powerful One) and ‘‘Ai [Heap of Ruins] (ruin) ;

⁴Unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) called on the name of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) .

⁵And Lot (Covering) also, which went with Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) , had flocks, and herds, and tents.

⁶And the 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 a strife between the herdsmen of Avram’s (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) cattle and the herdsman of Lot’s (Covering) cattle: and the Kena’ani (merchants; traders; or those that humble and subdue) and the P’rizi dwelled then in the land.

⁸And Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) said unto Lot (Covering) , Let there be no strife, I pray youi , between me and youi , and between my herdsman and youri herdsman; for we [be] brethren.

⁹[Is] not the whole land before youi ? separate thyself, I pray youi , from me: if youi [will take] the left hand, then I will go to the right; or if youi [depart] to the right hand, then I will go to the left.

¹⁰And Lot (Covering) lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Yarden (The Descender, Descending) , that it [was] well watered everywhere, before the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) destroyed S’dom (burning, denotes penal constrictions around the ankles) and ‘Amora (submersion, Tyrants, bind sheaves, People of Fear) , [even] as the garden of the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) , like the land of Mitzrayim [Egypt] (Double Distress or Double Stronghold, Black Land) , as youi come unto Tzo’ar (little place) .

¹¹Then Lot (Covering) chose him all the plain of Yarden (The Descender, Descending) ; and Lot (Covering) journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.

¹²Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) dwelled in the land of Kena’an (merchant; trader; or that humbles and subdues) , and Lot (Covering) dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched [his] tent toward S’dom (burning, denotes penal constrictions around the ankles) .

¹³But the men of S’dom (burning, denotes penal constrictions around the ankles) [were] wicked and sinners before the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) exceedingly.

¹⁴And the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) said unto Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) , after that Lot (Covering) was separated from him, Lift up now youri eyes, and look from the place where youi are northward, and southward, and eastward, and westward:

¹⁵For all the land which youi see, to youi will I give it, and to youri seed forever.

¹⁶And I will make youri seed as the dust of the earth: so that if a man can number the dust of the earth, [then] shall youri seed also be numbered.

¹⁷Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for I will give it unto youi .

¹⁸Then Avram (Exalted Father; Father Of Elevation) removed [his] tent, and came and dwelt in the plain of Mamre (firmness; fatling (fat cattle) offering), which [is] in Hevron (Place/Town Of Alliance), and built there an altar unto the Lord -Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) .
