Genesis 13:6-9 ▼

6 But the land could not support them living together, because they had so many livestock that they could not stay together.

7 There was strife between the herdsmen in charge of Abram's livestock and the herdsmen in charge of Lot's livestock. Also, at that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land.

8 So Abram told Lot, |Please, let's not have strife between you and me, or between your herdsmen and my herdsmen, since we are relatives.

9 Isn't the whole land available to you? Let's separate: If you go to the left, then I will go to the right; if you go to the right, then I will go to the left.|
