Liber Genesis

Ascendit ergo Abram de Ægypto, ipse et uxor ejus, et omnia quæ habebat, et Lot cum eo, ad australem plagam.

And Abram went up out of Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him into the south.

Ascende ergo Abra de Aegypto, ipso et uxore de illo, et omni que habe, et Loto cum eo, ad australi plaga.

Erat autem dives valde in possessione auri et argenti.

And he was very rich in possession of gold and silver.

Es autem divite valde in possessione de auro et de argento.

Reversusque est per iter, quo venerat, a meridie in Bethel, usque ad locum ubi prius fixerat tabernaculum inter Bethel et Hai,

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,

Et reverte es per itinere, quo veni, ab meridie in Bethele, usque ad loco ubi ante fixe tabernaculo inter Bethele et Hai,

in loco altaris quod fecerat prius: et invocavit ibi nomen Domini.

In the place of the altar which he had made before, and there he called upon the name of the Lord.

In loco de altari quod fac ante: et invoca ibi nomine de Domino.

Sed et Lot qui erat cum Abram, fuerunt greges ovium, et armenta, et tabernacula.

But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and herds of beasts, and tents.

Sed et Loto qui es cum Abra, es greges de oves, et armentos, et tabernaculos.

Nec poterat eos capere terra, ut habitarent simul: erat quippe substantia eorum multa, et nequibant habitare communiter.

Neither was the land able to bear them, that they might dwell together: for their substance was great, and they could not dwell together.

Nec pote illos cape terra, ut habita simul: substantia quippe de illos es multo, et nequor habita communiter.

Unde et facta est rixa inter pastores gregum Abram et Lot. Eo autem tempore Chananæus et Pherezæus habitabant in terra illa.

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.

Unde et facto es rixa inter pastores de greges Abra et Loto. Eo autem tempore Chananaeo et Pherezaeos habita in terra illa.

Dixit ergo Abram ad Lot: Ne quæso sit jurgium inter me et te, et inter pastores meos et pastores tuos: fratres enim sumus.

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.

Abra ergo dic ad Loto: ne quaese es iurge inter me et te, et inter pastores meo et pastores tuo: fratres nam es.

Ecce universa terra coram te est: recede a me, obsecro: si ad sinistram ieris, ego dexteram tenebo: si tu dexteram elegeris, ego ad sinistram pergam.

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.

Ecce universa terra coram te es: recede ab me, obsecra: si ad sinistra i, me tene dextera: si te elige dextera, me ad sinistra perge.

Elevatis itaque Lot oculis, vidit omnem circa regionem Jordanis, quæ universa irrigabatur antequam subverteret Dominus Sodomam et Gomorrham, sicut paradisus Domini, et sicut Ægyptus venientibus in Segor.

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.

Efeva itaque Loto oculos, vide omni circa regione de Iordane, que universa irriga antequam Domino subverte Sodoma et Gomorrhame, sicut paradiso de Domino, et sicut Aegypto veni in Segore.

Elegitque sibi Lot regionem circa Jordanem, et recessit ab oriente: divisique sunt alterutrum a fratre suo.

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.

Et Loto ad se elige regione circa Iordane, et recede ab oriente: et divide es alterutra ab fratre suo.

Abram habitavit in terra Chanaan; Lot vero moratus est in oppidis, quæ erant circa Jordanem, et habitavit in Sodomis.

Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan: and Lot abode in the towns, that were about the Jordan, and dwelt in Sodom.

Abra habita in terra Chanaane; loto vero moror es in oppidos, que es circa Iordane, et habita in Sodomas.

Homines autem Sodomitæ pessimi erant, et peccatores coram Domino nimis.

And the men of Sodom were very wicked, and sinners before the face of the Lord beyond measure.

Homines autem Sodomitas malo es, et peccatores coram Domino nimis.

Dixitque Dominus ad Abram, postquam divisus est ab eo Lot: Leva oculos tuos et vide a loco, in quo nunc es, ad aquilonem et meridiem, ad orientem et occidentem.

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.

Et Domino dic ad Abra, postquam divide es ab eo Loto: lege oculos tuo et vide ab loco, in quo nunc es, ad aquilone et meridie, ad ori et occidente.

Omnem terram, quam conspicis, tibi dabo, et semini tuo usque in sempiternum.

All the land which thou seest, I will give to thee, and to thy seed for ever.

Omni terra, quam conspice, ad te da, et ad semine tuo usque in sempiterno.

Faciamque semen tuum sicut pulverem terræ: si quis potest hominum numerare pulverem terræ, semen quoque tuum numerare poterit.

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.

Et fac semine tuo sicut pulvere de terra: si qui pote de homines numera pulvere de terra, semine etiam tuo numera pote.

Surge, et perambula terram in longitudine et in latitudine sua: quia tibi daturus sum eam.

Arise and walk through the land in the length, and the breadth thereof: for I will give it to thee.

Surge, et perambula terra in longitudine et in latitudine suo: quia ad te da es illa.

Movens igitur tabernaculum suum Abram, venit, et habitavit juxta convallem Mambre, quæ est in Hebron: ædificavitque ibi altare Domino.

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.

Move ergo tabernaculo suo Abra, veni, et habita juxta convalle Mambre, que es in Hebrone: et aedifica ibi altari ad Domino.
