New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Genesis 12
¹⁹ Why did you say, ’She is my sister,’ so that I took her for my wife? Now then, here is your wife, take her and go."
²⁰ Pharaoh commanded his men concerning him; and they escorted him away, with his wife and all that belonged to him.
Genesis 13
¹ So Abram went up from Egypt to the Negev, he and his wife and all that belonged to him, and Lot with him.
² Now Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver and in gold.
³ He went on his journeys from the Negev as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and Ai,
⁴ to the place of the altar which he had made there formerly; and there Abram called on the name of the Lord.
⁵ Now Lot, who went with Abram, also had flocks and herds and tents.
⁶ And the land could not sustain them while dwelling 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 Canaanite and the Perizzite were dwelling then in the land.
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 brothers.
⁹ Is not the whole land before you? Please separate from me; if to the left, then I will go to the right; or if to the right, then I will go to the left."
