¹Išiel tedy Abram hore z Egypta, on i jeho žena i so všetkým, čo mal, a Lot s ním, na juh.

¹And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the South.

²A Abram bol veľmi bohatý na dobytok, na striebro a zlato.

²And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.

³A išiel po svojich postupoch od juhu až po Bét-el, až ku miestu, kde bol na počiatku jeho stán, medzi Bét-elom a medzi Hajom,

³And he went on his journeys from the South even to Beth-el, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Beth-el and Ai,

⁴na miesto oltára, ktorý tam bol najprv urobil, a Abram tam vzýval meno Hospodinovo.

⁴unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of Jehovah.

⁵Ale aj Lot, ktorý išiel s Abramom, mal drobný dobytok, hovädá a stány.

⁵And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.

⁶A nemohla ich uniesť zem, tak aby boli mohli bývať spolu, lebo mali mnoho majetku a nemohli bývať spolu.

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.

⁷Tak povstala zvada medzi pastiermi dobytka Abramovho a medzi pastiermi dobytka Lotovho. A Kananej a Ferezej býval vtedy v zemi.

⁷And there was a strife between the herdsmen of Abram's cattle and the herdsmen of Lot's cattle: and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelt then in the land.

⁸Preto povedal Abram Lotovi: Nech nie je, prosím, rozbroja medzi mnou a medzi tebou, medzi mojimi pastiermi a medzi tvojimi pastiermi, lebo sme mužovia-bratia.

⁸And Abram said unto Lot, Let there be no strife, I pray thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen; for we are brethren.

⁹Či nie je pred tebou celá zem? Oddeľ sa, prosím, odo mňa! Ak pojdeš naľavo, ja pojdem napravo, a keď pojdeš napravo, ja pojdem naľavo.

⁹Is not the whole land before thee? separate thyself, I pray thee, from me. If [thou wilt take] the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if [thou take] the right hand, then I will go to the left.

¹⁰A Lot pozdvihol svoje oči a videl celé okolie Jordána, pretože bolo celé zavlažované, predtým než zkazil Hospodin Sodomu a Gomoru; celý ten kraj bol ako zahrada Hospodinova, jako Egyptská zem, ako ideš do Coára.

¹⁰And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest unto Zoar.

¹¹A Lot si vyvolil celé okolie Jordána a Lot sa rušal od východu. A tak sa oddelili brat od brata;

¹¹So Lot chose him all the Plain of the Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.

¹²Abram býval v zemi Kanaána, a Lot býval v mestách toho okolia a posunoval svoje stány až po Sodomu.

¹²Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.

¹³Ale Sodomänia boli zlí a hriešni, ktorí veľmi hrešili proti Hospodinovi.

¹³Now the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners against Jehovah exceedingly.

¹⁴A Hospodin riekol Abramovi, keď sa už bol od neho oddelil Lot: Nože pozdvihni svoje oči a vidz, od miesta, na ktorom si, na sever a na juh, na východ a na západ, k moru;

¹⁴And Jehovah said unto Abram, after that Lot was separated from him, Lift up now thine eyes, and look from the place where thou art, northward and southward and eastward and westward:

¹⁵lebo celú tú zem, ktorú vidíš, dám tebe a tvojmu semenu až na veky.

¹⁵for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.

¹⁶A učiním to, že bude tvojho semena jako prachu zeme, takže, ak by niekto mohol spočítať prach zeme, spočíta sa i tvoje semeno.

¹⁶And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: So that if a man can number the dust of the earth, then may thy seed also be numbered.

¹⁷Vstaň, prejdi sa po zemi, po jej dĺžke a po jej šírke, lebo tebe ju dám.

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

¹⁸A Abram sa stehoval so svojim stánom s miesta na miesto a prišiel a býval v dúbrave Mamre, ktorá je v Hebrone a vystavil tam Hospodinovi oltár.

¹⁸And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built there an altar unto Jehovah.
