1 Thus Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife and all that he had and Lot with him into the Negev.
2 And Abram was very rich in cattle, in silver, and in gold.
3 And he retraced his journeys from the side of the Negev even to Bethel, unto the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Hai,
4 unto the place of the altar, which he had made there at the first: and there Abram called on the name of the Lord.
5 And Lot also, who went with Abram, had flocks and herds and tents.
6 And the land was not able to bear them that they might dwell together, for their substance was so great that they could not dwell together.
7 And there was a strife between the pastors of Abram’s cattle and the pastors of Lot’s cattle; and the Canaanite and the Perizzite dwelt then in the land.
