13:1
|
亚伯兰带着他的妻子与罗得，并一切所有的，都从埃及上南地去。
|
|
|
And Abram went up out of Egypt, he, and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the South.
|
|
13:2
|
亚伯兰的金、银、牲畜极多。
|
|
|
And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
|
|
13:3
|
他从南地渐渐往伯特利去，到了伯特利和艾的中间，就是从前支搭帐棚的地方，
|
|
|
And 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,
|
|
13:4
|
也是他起先筑坛的地方；他又在那里求告耶和华的名。
|
|
|
unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of Jehovah.
|
|
13:5
|
与亚伯兰同行的罗得也有牛群、羊群、帐棚。
|
|
|
And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.
|
|
13:6
|
那地容不下他们；因为他们的财物甚多，使他们不能同居。
|
|
|
And 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.
|
|
13:7
|
当时，迦南人与比利洗人在那地居住。亚伯兰的牧人和罗得的牧人相争。
|
|
|
And 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.
|
|
13:8
|
亚伯兰就对罗得说：「你我不可相争，你的牧人和我的牧人也不可相争，因为我们是骨肉（原文作弟兄）。
|
|
|
And 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.
|
|
13:9
|
遍地不都在你眼前吗？请你离开我：你向左，我就向右；你向右，我就向左。」
|
|
|
Is 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.
|
|
13:10
|
罗得举目看见约但河的全平原，直到琐珥，都是滋润的，那地在耶和华未灭所多玛、蛾摩拉以先如同耶和华的园子，也像埃及地。
|
|
|
And 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.
|
|
13:11
|
于是罗得选择约但河的全平原，往东迁移；他们就彼此分离了。
|
|
|
So Lot chose him all the Plain of the Jordan; and Lot journeyed east: and they separated themselves the one from the other.
|
|
13:12
|
亚伯兰住在迦南地，罗得住在平原的城邑，渐渐挪移帐棚，直到所多玛。
|
|
|
Abram dwelt in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelt in the cities of the Plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom.
|
|
13:13
|
所多玛人在耶和华面前罪大恶极。
|
|
|
Now the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners against Jehovah exceedingly.
|
|
13:14
|
罗得离别亚伯兰以后，耶和华对亚伯兰说：「从你所在的地方，你举目向东西南北观看；
|
|
|
And 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:
|
|
13:15
|
凡你所看见的一切地，我都要赐给你和你的后裔，直到永远。
|
|
|
for all the land which thou seest, to thee will I give it, and to thy seed for ever.
|
|
13:16
|
我也要使你的后裔如同地上的尘沙那样多，人若能数算地上的尘沙才能数算你的后裔。
|
|
|
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 may thy seed also be numbered.
|
|
13:17
|
你起来，纵横走遍这地，因为我必把这地赐给你。」
|
|
|
Arise, walk through the land in the length of it and in the breadth of it; for unto thee will I give it.
|
|
13:18
|
亚伯兰就搬了帐棚，来到希伯仑幔利的橡树那里居住，在那里为耶和华筑了一座坛。
|
|
|
And Abram moved his tent, and came and dwelt by the oaks of Mamre, which are in Hebron, and built there an altar unto Jehovah.
