Genesi (تكوين) 13

SMITH VAN DYKE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 فصعد ابرام من مصر هو وامرأته وكل ما كان له ولوط معه الى الجنوب.	1 And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the south.
2 وكان ابرام غنيا جدا في المواشي والفضة والذهب.	2 And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.
3 وسار في رحلاته من الجنوب الى بيت ايل. الى المكان الذي كانت خيمته فيه في البداءة بين بيت ايل وعاي.	3 And he returned by the way that he came, from the south to Bethel, to the place where before he had pitched his tent between Bethel and Hai:
4 الى مكان المذبح الذي عمله هناك اولا. ودعا هناك ابرام باسم الرب	4 In the place of the altar which he had made before; and there he called upon the name of the Lord.
5 ولوط السائر مع ابرام كان له ايضا غنم وبقر وخيام.	5 But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.
6 ولم تحتملهما الارض ان يسكنا معا. اذ كانت املاكهما كثيرة. فلم يقدرا ان يسكنا معا.	6 Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.
7 فحدثت مخاصمة بين رعاة مواشي ابرام ورعاة مواشي لوط. وكان الكنعانيون والفرزّيون حينئذ ساكنين في الارض.	7 Whereupon also there arose a strife between the herdsmen of Abram and of Lot. And at that time the Chanaanite and the Pherezite dwelled in that country.
8 فقال ابرام للوط لا تكن مخاصمة بيني وبينك وبين رعاتي ورعاتك. لاننا نحن اخوان.	8 Abram therefore said to Lot: Let there be no quarrel, I beseech thee, between me and thee, and between my herdsmen and thy herdsmen: for we are brethren.
9 أليست كل الارض امامك. اعتزل عني. ان ذهبت شمالا فانا يمينا وان يمينا فانا شمالا	9 Behold the whole land is before thee: depart from me I pray thee: if thou wilt go to the left hand, I will take the right: if thou choose the right hand, I will pass to the left.
10 فرفع لوط عينيه ورأى كل دائرة الاردن ان جميعها سقي قبلما اخرب الرب سدوم وعمورة كجنة الرب كارض مصر. حينما تجيء الى صوغر.	10 And Lot, lifting up his eyes, saw all the country about the Jordan, which was watered throughout, before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrha, as the paradise of the Lord, and like Egypt as one comes to Segor.
11 فاختار لوط لنفسه كل دائرة الاردن وارتحل لوط شرقا. فاعتزل الواحد عن الآخر.	11 And Lot chose to himself the country about the Jordan, and he departed from the east: and they were separated one brother from the other.
12 ابرام سكن في ارض كنعان ولوط سكن في مدن الدائرة ونقل خيامه الى سدوم.	12 Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan; and Lot abode in the towns that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.
13 وكان اهل سدوم اشرارا وخطاة لدى الرب جدا	13 And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord, beyond measure.
14 وقال الرب لابرام بعد اعتزال لوط عنه. ارفع عينيك وانظر من الموضع الذي انت فيه شمالا وجنوبا وشرقا وغربا.	14 And the Lord said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him: Lift up thy eyes, and look from the place wherein thou now art, to the north and to the south, to the east and to the west.
15 لان جميع الارض التي انت ترى لك اعطيها ولنسلك الى الابد.	15 All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.
16 واجعل نسلك كتراب الارض. حتى اذا استطاع احد ان يعد تراب الارض فنسلك ايضا يعدّ.	16 And I will make thy seed as the dust of the earth: if any man be able to number the dust of the earth, he shall be able to number thy seed also.
17 قم امش في الارض طولها وعرضها. لاني لك اعطيها.	17 Arise and walk through the land in the length, and in the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.
18 فنقل ابرام خيامه واتى واقام عند بلوطات ممرا التي في حبرون. بنى هناك مذبحا للرب	18 So Abram removing his tent came and dwelt by the vale of Mambre, which is in Hebron: and he built there an altar to the Lord.
