Genesis 13:1-5 New English Translation (NET)

1. So Abram went up from Egypt into the Negev. He took his wife and all his possessions with him, as well as Lot.

2. (Now Abram was very wealthy in livestock, silver, and gold.)

3. And he journeyed from place to place from the Negev as far as Bethel. He returned to the place where he had pitched his tent at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai.

4. This was the place where he had first built the altar, and there Abram worshiped the Lord.

5. Now Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had flocks, herds, and tents.
