Isn’t the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”

ગુજરાતીઉત્પત્તિ ૧૩:૯
શું તારી આગળ આખો દેશ નથી? તું આગળ જા અને પોતાને મારાથી જુદો કર. જો તું ડાબી બાજુ જશે, તો હું જમણી બાજુ જઈશ. અથવા જો તું જમણી બાજુ જશે, તો પછી હું ડાબી બાજુ જઈશ.”
हिन्दीउत्पत्ति १३:९
क्या सारा देश तेरे सामने नहीं? सो मुझसे अलग हो, यदि तू बाईं ओर जाए तो मैं दाहिनी ओर जाऊँगा; और यदि तू दाहिनी ओर जाए तो मैं बाईं ओर जाऊँगा।”

In context

7There was strife between the herdsmen of Abram’s livestock and the herdsmen of Lot’s livestock. The Canaanites and the Perizzites lived in the land at that time.

8Abram said to Lot, “Please, let there be no strife between you and me, and between your herdsmen and my herdsmen; for we are relatives.

9Isn’t the whole land before you? Please separate yourself from me. If you go to the left hand, then I will go to the right. Or if you go to the right hand, then I will go to the left.”

10Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar.

11So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one another.
