Is not the whole land before you? Let us separate. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.”
In context
7Quarreling broke out between the herders of Abram’s livestock and the herders of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites were also living in the land at that time. 8So Abram said to Lot, “Let there be no quarreling between you and me, or between your herders and mine, for we are relatives. 9Is not the whole land before you? Let us separate. If you go to the left, I will go to the right; if you go to the right, I will go to the left.” 10Lot looked up and saw the whole plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere — this was before Yahweh destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah — like the garden of Yahweh, like the land of Egypt, all the way to Zoar. 11So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. Thus the two men parted from each other.
