5 Now Lot, who went with Abram, also had flocks, herds, and tents.
6 And the land could not support both of them while living together, for their possessions were so great that they were not able to remain together.
7 And there was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. Now the Canaanites and the Perizzites were living in the land at that time.
8 So Abram said to Lot, “Please let there be no strife between you and me, nor between my herdsmen and your herdsmen, for we are relatives!
9 Is the entire land not before you? Please separate from me; if you choose the left, then I will go to the right; or if you choose the right, then I will go to the left.”
10 Lot raised his eyes and saw all the vicinity of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere— this was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah—like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt going toward Zoar.
11 So Lot chose for himself all the vicinity of the Jordan, and Lot journeyed eastward. So they separated from each other.
12 Abram settled in the land of Canaan, while Lot settled in the cities of the vicinity of the Jordan, and moved his tents as far as Sodom.
13 Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked sinners against 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.
