Arise, and walk about in the land, in the length of it and in the breadth, for I will give it unto thee."

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

Then Abram took down his tent, and went and dwelled in the oak grove of Mamre, which is in Hebron; and built there an altar to the LORD.

And the LORD said unto Abram, after that Lot was departed from him, "Lift up thine eyes and look from the place where thou art, northward, southward, eastward and westward,

Then Abram departed out of Egypt; both he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him unto the south.

Then Lot lift up his eyes, and beheld all the country about Jordan: that it was a plenteous country of water. For, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, it was round about Zoar, even as the pleasant garden of the LORD, and as the land of Egypt.

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

But the men of Sodom were wicked, and sinned exceedingly against the LORD.

Abram was very rich in cattle, silver and gold.

Lot also, which went with him, had sheep, cattle and tents:

Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan: And Lot in the cities of the plain, and tented till he came to Sodom.

Is not all the whole land before thee? Depart, I pray thee, from me. If thou wilt take the lefthand, I will take the right: or if thou take the righthand I will take the left."

and unto the place of the altar which he made before. And there called Abram upon the name, of the LORD.

Then Lot chose all the coasts of Jordan and took his journey from the east. And so departed the one brother from the other.
