1

So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, he and his wife and all that belonged to him, and Lot with him.

2

Now Abram was very rich in livestock, silver, and gold.

3

And he went on his journeys from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

4

to the place of the altar which he had made there previously; and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

5

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

6

And the land could not support both of them while living together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to remain together.

7

And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. Now the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land at that time.

8

So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, nor between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are relatives!

9

Is the entire land not before you? Please separate from me; if you choose the left, then I will go to the right; or if you choose the right, then I will go to the left.”

10

Lot raised his eyes and saw all the vicinity of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere—this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah—like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt going toward Zoar.

11

So Lot chose for himself all the vicinity of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward. So they separated from each other.

12

Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the vicinity of the Jordan, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.

13

Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked sinners against the LORD.

1

아브람이 애굽에서 그와 그의 아내와 모든 소유와 롯과 함께 네게브로 올라가니

1

So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, he and his wife and all that belonged to him, and Lot with him.

2

아브람에게 가축과 은과 금이 풍부하였더라

2

Now Abram was very rich in livestock, silver, and gold.

3

그가 네게브에서부터 길을 떠나 벧엘에 이르며 벧엘과 아이 사이 곧 전에 장막 쳤던 곳에 이르니

3

And he went on his journeys from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,

4

그가 처음으로 제단을 쌓은 곳이라 그가 거기서 여호와의 이름을 불렀더라

4

to the place of the altar which he had made there previously; and there Abram called on the name of the LORD.

5

아브람의 일행 롯도 양과 소와 장막이 있으므로

5

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

6

그 땅이 그들이 동거하기에 넉넉하지 못하였으니 이는 그들의 소유가 많아서 동거할 수 없었음이니라

6

And the land could not support both of them while living together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to remain together.

7

그러므로 아브람의 가축의 목자와 롯의 가축의 목자가 서로 다투고 또 가나안 사람과 브리스 사람도 그 땅에 거주하였는지라

7

And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. Now the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land at that time.

8

아브람이 롯에게 이르되 우리는 한 친족이라 나나 너나 내 목자나 네 목자나 서로 다투게 하지 말자

8

So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, nor between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are relatives!

9

네 앞에 온 땅이 있지 아니하냐 나를 떠나가라 네가 좌하면 나는 우하고 네가 우하면 나는 좌하리라

9

Is the entire land not before you? Please separate from me; if you choose the left, then I will go to the right; or if you choose the right, then I will go to the left.”

10

이에 롯이 눈을 들어 요단 지역을 바라본즉 소알까지 온 땅에 물이 넉넉하니 여호와께서 소돔과 고모라를 멸하시기 전이었으므로 여호와의 동산 같고 애굽 땅과 같았더라

10

Lot raised his eyes and saw all the vicinity of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere—this was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah—like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt going toward Zoar.

11

그러므로 롯이 요단 온 지역을 택하고 동으로 옮기니 그들이 서로 떠난지라

11

So Lot chose for himself all the vicinity of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward. So they separated from each other.

12

아브람은 가나안 땅에 거주하였고 롯은 그 지역의 도시들에 머무르며 그 장막을 옮겨 소돔까지 이르렀더라

12

Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the vicinity of the Jordan, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.

13

소돔 사람은 여호와 앞에 악하며 큰 죄인이었더라

13

Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked sinners against the LORD.
