8 And Abram said to Lot, “Please let there not be strife between me and between you, and between my shepherds and between your shepherds, for we are men—brothers. 9 Is not all the land before you? Separate, please, from me—if to the left, then I will go to the right; and if to the right, then I will go to the left.” 10 And Lot lifted up his eyes, and he saw all the plain of the Jordan, for all of it was well watered (before YHWH destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of YHWH, like the land of Egypt, as you go toward Zoar. 11 And Lot chose for himself all the plain of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed toward the east. And they separated, a man from his brother. 12 Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the plain, and he pitched his tent toward Sodom.
