2. But he was very wealthy by the possession of gold and silver.
3. And he returned by the way that he came, from the meridian into Bethel, all the way to the place where before he had pitched his tent, between Bethel and Hai.

5. But Lot also, who was with Abram, had flocks of sheep, and cattle, and tents.
