In Context

10 Lot looked up and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan was well watered, like the garden of the Lord , like the land of Egypt, toward Zoar. (This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

11 So Lot chose for himself the whole plain of the Jordan and set out toward the east. The two men parted company:

12 Abram lived in the land of Canaan, while Lot lived among the cities of the plain and pitched his tents near Sodom.

13 Now the men of Sodom were wicked and were sinning greatly against the Lord .

14 The Lord said to Abram after Lot had parted from him, "Lift up your eyes from where you are and look north and south, east and west.

15 All the land that you see I will give to you and your offspring forever.
