012:014 It happened that when Abram had come into Egypt, the Egyptians
saw that the woman was very beautiful.
012:015 The princes of Pharaoh saw her, and praised her to Pharaoh;
and the woman was taken into Pharaoh's house.
012:016 He dealt well with Abram for her sake. He had sheep,
oxen, male donkeys, male servants, female servants,
female donkeys, and camels.
012:017 Yahweh plagued Pharaoh and his house with great plagues
because of Sarai, Abram's wife.
012:018 Pharaoh called Abram and said, "What is this that you have done
to me? Why didn't you tell me that she was your wife?
012:019 Why did you say, 'She is my sister,' so that I took her
to be my wife? Now therefore, see your wife, take her,
and go your way."
012:020 Pharaoh gave men charge concerning him, and they brought him
on the way with his wife and all that he had.
013:001 Abram went up out of Egypt: he, his wife, all that he had,
and Lot with him, into the South.
013:002 Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.
013:003 He went on his journeys from the South even to Bethel,
to the place where his tent had been at the beginning,
between Bethel and Ai,
013:004 to the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first.
There Abram called on the name of Yahweh.
013:005 Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
013:006 The land was not able to bear them, that they might live together:
for their substance was great, so that they could not live together.
013:007 There was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram's livestock
and the herdsmen of Lot's livestock: and the Canaanite
and the Perizzite lived in the land at that time.
013:008 Abram said to Lot, "Please, let there be no strife between
me and you, and between my herdsmen and your herdsmen;
for we are relatives.
013:009 Isn't the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me.
If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right.
Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left."
013:010 Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan,
that it was well-watered everywhere, before Yahweh destroyed
Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Yahweh, like the land
of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.
013:011 So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself.
Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves the one
from the other.
013:012 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities
of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
013:013 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners
against Yahweh.
013:014 Yahweh said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, "Now,
lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are,
northward and southward and eastward and westward,
