5 Lot, who was traveling with Abram, also had many flocks, herds, and tents,
6 so much so that the available land couldn't support both of them—they had so much livestock they couldn't stay together anymore.
7 Abram's and Lot's herdsmen were arguing, and in addition the Canaanites and Perizzites were also living in the land at that time.
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please don't let's have arguments between us, or between our herdsmen, because we're family.
9 You see all this land that's available right in front of you? We have to split up. If you choose to go to the left, I'll go to the right. If you choose to go to the right, I'll go to the left.”
10 Lot looked over the whole Jordan valley towards Zoar, and saw that it was well-watered, looking like the Garden of Eden, like the land of Egypt. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)
11 So Lot chose the whole Jordan valley and went east, and the two separated from each other.
12 Abram went to live in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled down among the towns in the valley, setting up his tents near Sodom.
13 (The people of Sodom were very wicked, committing terrible sins that offended the Lord.)
Le prix du pardon La Genèse rapporte le premier sacrifice de la Bible : Dieu lui-même habille Adam et Ève de vêtements de peau (Genèse 3:21). Pour couvrir leur honte, un animal a dû mourir. Dès le début, le pardon a un prix, et c'est Dieu qui le paie.
