When a severe famine struck the land, Abraham traveled south to Egypt. Afraid that the Egyptians would kill him because his wife was such a beautiful woman, Abraham represented Sarah as his sister and allowed the Pharaoh to take her into his household. As a result, the Lord plagued the Pharaoh and his house. When the Egyptian ruler learned the truth, he quickly sent Abraham and Sarah away with all the servants, cattle and riches Abraham had acquired in Egypt.  
Когда же ужасный голод обрушился на Ханаан, Авраам отправился на юг, в Египет. Убоявшись, что египтяне убьют его, прельщенные красотой жены его Сарры, Авраам назвался ее братом и позволил фараону забрать женщину во дворец. Тогда Господь "поразил тяжкими ударами фараона и дом его", и тот, узнав правду, немедленно выслал из страны Авраама и Сарру со всеми их слугами, скотом и богатствами, собранными в Египте.  


Once back in Canaan, the herdsmen of Lot and Abraham began to quarrel and the two kinsmen separated. Abraham generously offered first choice of the territory to Lot, who settled in the fertile plain of Jordan toward Sodom while Abraham dwelt in the seemingly less desirable land of Canaan in Hebron. After Lot departed, the Lord told Abraham that he would give the patriarch and his seed all the land that he could see—north, south, east and west. And although Abraham was still childless, the Lord affirmed that his seed would be as innumerable as “the dust of the earth.”<ref>Gen. 13:16.</ref>
