8. So Abram said to Lot, “There should be no arguing between you and me or between your people and my people. We are all brothers.
9. We should separate. You can choose any place you want. If you go to the left, I will go to the right. If you go to the right, I will go to the left.”
10. Lot looked and saw the whole Jordan Valley. He saw that there was much water there. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. At that time the Jordan Valley all the way to Zoar was like the Lord’S Garden. This was good land, like the land of Egypt.)
11. So Lot chose to live in the Jordan Valley. The two men separated, and Lot began traveling east.
