2 Abram was a very rich man, with sheep, goats, and cattle, as well as silver and gold.
3 Then he left there and moved from place to place, going towards Bethel. He reached the place between Bethel and Ai where he had camped before

5 Lot also had sheep, goats, and cattle, as well as his own family and servants.

7 So quarrels broke out between the men who took care of Abram's animals and those who took care of Lot's animals. (At that time the Canaanites and the Perizzites were still living in the land.)
8 Then Abram said to Lot, “We are relatives, and your men and my men shouldn't be quarrelling.
