"Soon, soon." "Your child, has her nose pressed against your heart." "Put one more in here for shearing." "It appears she is not too anxious... to face life." "Well..." "who would blame her ?" "This world being what it is..." "Wives!" "Look after everything for a while.." "I'm going to see how..." "things are with Lot." "Serug." "Serug!" "Hold her head." "Gentle, gentle." "You're very close." "You're very close." "Aisha, hurry, quickly." "Quickly!" "Yes." "No, I...." "Try again." "Try again." "Push." "Push." "Push!" "Calm down, Lot." "She's a strong girl." "Come on, in!" "She's fine." "Fine!" "." "Inside!" "." "You have a god for every need, Nahor." "Even for my needs?" "lf you are prepared... to become an accomplice..." "to this god." "Which one is this?" "Sen, the god of fertility." "Does it have...?" "Excellent!" "Excellent." "Push!" "How much?" "You see this beardless orphan?" "He's my nephew." "And that was his wife..." "trying to drop his first child." "How much?" "I'll give you a good price, Reko, my friend!" "Look at this bird-breasted boy and ask yourself... how could a child like this father a child himself?" "How?" "Because he sacrificed to Sen, god of moon." "Four silver pieces." "One." "Don't give up now child." "Don't give up!" "Don't give up!" "Don't give up!" "Don't give up!" "If you think that was loud, wait until you hear the sound... you'll make if she drops a daughter." "All right." "I'll do it for you." "l'll do it for you!" "l can't, I can't..." "l'll do it for you!" "All right, come." "Run, get my brother!" "Now." "Not yet." "Not yet." "Father, quiet." "Don't leave me." "Not now." "Not yet." "Not yet." "This market is closed until further notice." "Clear the square!" "My esteemed First Councilor." "You are Nahor, born son of Terah, are you not?" "You know I am." "But tell me: why have you ended the market?" "I still have..." "This concerns the royal covenant to... rent the king's lands to Terah and his people." "I therefore bring a summons from Aski Takin... for Terah to appear before him." "Our covenant expires at sunset." "and all its lands." "Renew it... or you and your people will be expelled form this city... and from the whole land" "Your rightful honor, First Councilor to the King, should we... discuss these matters under the sun?" "Cooler place perhaps?" "Have this dung cleared immediately, the King walks here today." "Sir?" "Spit it out." "What?" "Your father..." "Your father..." "Father, I thank all the gods for taking away your pain so quickly." "To be robbed again by that thief!" "And his King!" "Brother, for 23 years you have outwitted that fool." "Today, no doubt, you'll do so again." "You ever tried to feed a vulture?" "You better count your fingers afterwards!" "It's good to hear you laugh, lt means you're getting better." "It's late and we have business." "Father, please, please stay, you stay." "Let me talk to the King." "He makes the covenant with me, not you, not yet." "And you say nothing, let Nahor talk." "He knows these people." "His wits have made us richer every year." "Nahor knows how to..." "Use his tongue." "And you keep yours in your mouth." "This day marks the end of the covenant... between Asdi Takin, King of Haran... and Terah, and his people." "So be it." "These shadows grow long." "A new covenant must be made before the last light." "I, Nahor, will speak for my father." "The generosity of the King of Haran is known throughout the world." "We have prospered here for many years under his benevolent hand" "He has our endless gratitude." "Thanks will not feed your people." "What do you offer?" "In the new year we will lay at the feet of His Majesty... the same number of mature sheep and cattle as the old year, the... same quantities of spun wool," "tanned skins...silver pieces..." "the same..." "Plus!" "Plus a bonus of one fourth of all that!" "We appreciate your sincere remarks and your offer, but...old man, the bonus will not... be one fourth." "To graze on my lands for another year, you will pay double." "Double, Your Majesty?" "This is an... unprecedented demand, it's out of question." "We cannot." "Then I'm sad to say... your tribe must leave my paradise." "Your majesty... why do you abuse us in this manner?" "Easy." "In past years, you've refused us water." "We dug for it, you seized our wells... and made us pay silver for the water we gave you." "You gave us worst lands... after our herds made the earth fertile with their dung, you drove us off, so your farmers barley five fold." "You ordered us to fight your enemies." "We gave you victories with our blood." "Haran is a paradise, but our people helped to make it so." "You?" "You did all this!" "The riches of Haran pour from... the hands of the blessed god Sen... and nobody else." "Instead, you wandered here from Ur, a small tribe and now you are... as thick as lice in my hair." "You will pay double... because you are now twice the number you were." "Our tribe grows because of the children, our children." "Must we pay twice because our women are fertile?" "Not all you women." "Your wife, for instance, is a woman of great beauty, I hear, a problem that perhaps lies elsewhere." "Where..." "We will be glad to pay whatever His Highness in His wisdom asks." "Double?" "It will be double!" "Let the covenant be made!" ""lf l break this covenant, may what is done to these beasts... be done to me."" "We've done it." "It's over." "Come here." "Babe, it's over." "You've done it.." "Done it" "Oh ..she is so lovely lt will pass." "Look at me." "Look at me." "Drink of this." "Mint juice." "It'll do you good." "l don't..." "Spoiled, ungrateful child..." "Careful." "Take you baby." "She's beautiful... and hungry." "She wants you." "She is a girl..." "Give her to the servants." "Let me alone.." "I don't want her." "You don't want her?" "Thank you Sarai." "May you have many more." "So the King of Haran has lice." "A head of hair, to a louse, is a head of hair, even if..." "it wears a crown." "Thank you, son." "How are you feeling?" "That was nothing yesterday." "Something I ate, perhaps." "I'm happy for Lot." "Yes, a daughter." "And time... for more, time for a son." "And Sarai, as usual, was a very good midwife." "She'll probably..." "Father... it's killing her." "She's brought so many children into the world..." "Each birth is like a little death to her." "And when she dies a little, so do you." "I have nothing else." "She's all I have." "Abram, you're a mystery to me." "Now, Lot, I understand." "He's inherited from your dead brothers... while he's a child with the wealth of a man, trying very hard to be a man." "Nahor, I understand." "He's rich, but he thinks like a pauper, looking under every stone for his next piece of silver." "But you!" "You have more wealth than either of them, and when I die, twice that, and yet...means nothing to you." "Instead, you brood and ponder, question and search." "For what?" "Why can't you be happy for what we have here now?" "Abram, the King's right." "I've never seen a place so green." "Their gods, as he said, have made Haran a paradise." "I have tried to reach those gods... but I get nothing." "Nothing?" "You get nothing from the gods?" "Nothing at all?" "Nothing." "Listen." "Lot took his bride to the shrine of Sen... for the ritual of the full moon." "Did you know that?" "And the sooner does he take her to bed, then...a child!" "Yes, sometimes the gods listen." "What is it?" "is it the King?" "The king?" "No, no, not the King." "He's no better nor worse... than any other king I've met." "is it our life here?" "How can one not be content in a place like this?" "Water, grass..." "And this little rich land." "is it me?" "No, no!" "Talk to me." "I don't know." "l just need of..." "What, what do you need?" "I want to give you a child." "No, no, it's not that at all..." "Then what?" "The truth is that I don't know, I just don't know." "Father, without doubt, Sarai is a good woman, a beauty!" "But enough is enough, I mean, she is after all only a woman." "Are you suggesting a second wife?" "What else?" "Look at me." "After Milcah dropped three sons, I took Reumah, A luxury at the time, perhaps..." "But now I have 5 sons!" "A man can't have too many, that's why we marry." "Of course my brother can't think like that: practical... feet on the ground..." "He fights his secret war in here... and clings to Sarai like a drowning man." "Abram with a second wife..." "I don't know..." "Why not?" "Who knows, he might even enjoy it?" "If he could ever allow himself to enjoy anything." "He is such a Brother!" "Those pains!" "No, no, they've become my friends." "I'd miss them if they didn't visit me once in a while." "Come inside." "Abram, there's something I want to show you." "It's rather impressive, don't you think?" "Here's a divinity with a hidden power!" "Herbs of some kind, I'm not sure exactly which." "Tastes awful, but... it's blessed by this deity... which gives it amazing potency!" "is this why you asked me here?" "Well, yes, I thought best to show you." "Abram, tonight, try a little of this, Sarai too." "Reumah and I tried it and I can't tell you..." "Gods for this, gods for that..." "Gods to eat!" "Abram, what are you doing?" "Gods to sleep!" "Are you insane!" "Stop it!" "Stop it!" "You're a madman." "They're all worthless, false.useless" "Stop it!" "Absurd!" "Lies!" "Abram!" "Stop this madness now!" "Lies!" "Stop it!" "Lies!" "Lies!" "Lies!" "Abram." "Abram." "Go... away from your father's house..." "Father's house  from my father's house..." "To the land I will show you" "To the land... I will show you?" ""Make..."" ""of you..."" ""a great..nation."" ""And I will bless..."" ""those who bless you..."" ""and curse all those who curse you..."" "" And in you..."" ""shall all the families..."" ""of the earth be blessed."" "Now, let me see this..." "There you were, face down in the mud, and a god spoke to you." "Fine." "But what god?" "What powers does he have?" "What does he look like?" "Where does he live?" "Brother... I have studied every god known to man... and they all have names, faces, places..." "Besides you, Abram... who knows this god?" "I don't know, Father." "Perhaps many, in their hearts." "I see!" "A god to be worshipped in ignorance!" "Not so, brother." "It' simply that I'm ignorant." "I do not know him yet, But in time..." "Fine, fine. ln time, but now, he's telling you to pack up everything... and everyone and leave for who knows where!" "No!" "It's insane!" "I refuse to follow this brother of mine and his "voices"." "We've worked too hard, we've paid too high a price... for what we have here." "And he wants to forsake it?" "For what?" "You have changed, Abram." "I can see it." "No, he hasn't!" "He is still as stubborn as an ass!" "Stop pacing and sit down." "Tell me, Abram, Help me understand." "What has happened to you?" "This god said Abram's name will be famous." "That he will make of him a great nation..." "But how?" "How can Abram make a nation of people without..." "Children?" "I don't know." "We've heard enough of this nonsense." "If Abram and his men leave, we are at risk, and you, brother, are in greater danger." "Out there, alone!" "Your people will be like sheep among jackals!" "I feel that I am protected." "This nameless god..." "Again!" "Nahor." "Lot." "Leave us." "Come on, go out!" "Abram, you are my son." "You owe me obedience." "And instead you listen to this unknown god, a nameless god who whispers into your ear... and bids you to leave your father's house, to break your heart and mine." "What kind of god is this?" "I don't know, Father." "but I heard his voice." "He spoke to me above the silence of all the other gods." "You've despised the gods who have given us protection... and made us rich and allowed our children and the herds... to grow healthy and strong." "You renounce all our gods because you found a new god?" "I cannot stay, Father." "As much as it grieves me..." "The thought of leaving you..." "But I felt... I've heard him call to me..." "Abram... you're taking away much joy from our lives." "I counted on you, my son, for the days to come." "You have a big heart and I don't know it, but you know mine." "Go, go in peace... with the blessing of your god, whoever he is, and with mine." "Uncle, I'm going to come with you." "To protect you." "Let us gather the herds." "Baby..." "Good bye." "Don't drink too fast." "Slowly." "Drink slowly." "Where were you going to?" "To Haran, in the north." "That's where we came from." "Then you're going south?" "Yeah." "Toward Damascus?" "Yeah." "That's not a place where one is necessarily welcomed." "Or, at least, as far as I'm concerned, there's much oppression down there ln fact, I was..." "We come in peace." "This man is a slave." "He ran away from his master in Damascus." "We are taking him back." "That man is a guest in our camp... and therefore his life is sacred to us." "He must come with us." "Back to man who owns him" "Owns him?" "Then I'm willing to pay for this slave's freedom." "The price is high." "His master spent a fortune to buy him as his scribe." "He's fed him for years." "l will pay the price." "Thank you, master." "I'm your slave." "My name is Eliezer." "Don't please, please, please!" "No, no!" "No, you are free to go where you choose." "I'll give you what you need to reach Haran." "I have a brother there who may have work. for an educated man." "I could never repay you." "You have my life-long gratitude." "and I want to give you this small piece of advice: turn back!" "Stay the night with us." "Eat and rest." "Abram!" "Haran is probably worse than Damascus." "But one question, please." "Why are we traveling south?" "My god... with all my heart... I give thanks." "I have seen it, as You have shown it to me." "Canaan, this is.." "the land of promise." "This piece of Canaan is no accident." "The hand of man is everywhere." "We are not alone in Canaan." "Take what men you can spare... and form a circle, right around this valley and we..." "I am Mambre, the Amorite, and these are my two brothers." "I'm Abraham, and this is my nephew, Lot." "These are my people!" "And this valley is ours land and your people are on it." "lt is a well tended valley." "Yes it is." "Because my father's father's father dug... for water here and... we found a river under the earth." "Now it flows above and... my father's father planted these trees." "and my father dammed the water to... make the lake where your animals now drink." "Well, there's not much work for you and your brother to do." "Yes, we defend it." "Uncle Abram." "We have the advantage." "The land is good here and... the people are tired of wandering." "Let's take the place now." "We can defend it now as well as many." "First we kill these men?" "lf necessary..." "lt would be necessary." "My nephew believes we have the advantage." "Your nephew is good with numbers." "Now we'll see if he knows how to use them." "No!" "There's no justice between men, if our differences are... measured in numbers and in blood." "Your father and his father and his father... made this valley green." "This land is yours." "We will leave in peace." "Let's gather our herds and return to our valley." "My Lord, God." "You have led me here." "You have given me the land that you had promised." "But why are you taking it away now?" "I have brought with me the hope of my people." "But how do I feed them?" "Shall I remain here?" "Shall I take them away?" "But where, Lord?" "Where?" "Tell me what to do." "I am your servant, but how can I serve you?" "How am I to serve you?" "My Lord... do not abandon me... I speak to Him..." "And He will not answer..." "This is a mysterious God." "He wanted us to come here." "We did." "He showed me Canaan as it will be." "He said He would make our people a great nation..." "But how do we exist until then?" "He will provide." "He made me a promise." "He can not be untrue to that promise." "Last night, in a tent next to ours, a child died." "l know." "The animals are wailing." "l know." "The land has dried up." "How can you follow this God?" "I do, I can and I will." "Not you." "Not you too." "If Canaan is the home that He promised us... and we leave..." "Will He not be displeased?" "Will He not abandon us?" "But if we stay..." "We will starve." "Wife... if Canaan in not ours, we will not die here!" "We will not die here" "My people..." "What am I doing?" "What have I done?" "Stay with your faith." "Faith?" "Uncle, we must find water..." "and grass soon." "There's plenty of both not far from here." "I traveled this through once... with a caravan of merchants carrying spices." "Spices?" "To where?" "To Egypt." "The land of the great river Nile." "It's a very fertile place." "Maybe that's where we should be going lt may be not an easy." "Egypt is ruled by a terrible tyrant... they call Pharaoh." "He watches over his land like a jealous husband." "Could that not be an oasis?" "A fertile valley?" "Anything between here and that Pharaoh?" "Nothing." "The desert remains harsh and unfriendly... all the way." "Well, we will go on... to this land..." "of the river Nile." "We will move on." "Abram!" "Abram!" ", I've just been told by someone up ahead that you... may have an even greater problem than we ever imagined." "It seems this Pharaoh... has a lust for beautiful women." "He pays great reward to men who supply them." "Are there no laws?" "Yes. in fact, Egyptians are... very strict about such matters." "It's forbidden by sacred law for one man to take wife of another." "And so?" "The Pharaoh has found a way around the law." "He kills the husband." "I'm not the kind of woman a King would want." "You are?" "Abram, son of Terah." "And these are?" "These are my people." "Do you think you could be a little more precise than that?" "Yes." "Lot, son of Haran, my nephew." "Eliezer, of Damascus." "Sarai, daughter of Terah..." "My sister and..." "Enough, enough, enough." "Just count them." "53... now." "What do you want in Egypt?" "We'd like to rest a while..." "pasture the animals,..." "Trade." "Trade?" "Yes, trade." "Trade what?" "We spin wool and, tan hides..." "make tunics, cheese, sandals..." "You're a little late." "Late?" "Late" "Egypt's choking with nomads and their filthy sheep." "The hills look like maggots crawling on a dung heap." "Permission to enter..." "denied." "Denied?" "Denied!" "You!" "Wait!" "A bit warm for all this, don't you think?" "And for your crimes of theft against the merchant, it is the judgment of our Pharaoh that justice will prevail." "Cut of their hands." "No, no, no!" "Lovely!" "Yes." "Lovely woman." "Now then." "You!" "You are the brother is that correct?" "And your people are shepherds, are they not?" "Splendid." "You will be given two score of sheep, one score... of cattle, oxen and carts, filled with food... tents, and so forth, plus grazing land in the delta." "You will obey Egypt laws, pay Egyptian taxes... worship Egyptian gods." "Your sister is now a member of the Pharaoh's household." "I know. I know it' a ridiculously large reward." "Almost embarrassing, isn't it?" "But no need for thanks." "The Pharaoh's generosity is boundless as the light of the sun." "Welcome to Egypt." "Enjoy your stay." "Lot, bring the tribe." "Get them water, food, take care of them." "Eliezer, we've got to get her out." "We've got to try." "Try to find out if she's guarded." "How many guards." "I'll do my best." "Be careful." "No, don't move." "We're almost finihed." "I know it's too thick." "You can hardly keep your eyes open" "But even men around it use it." "Everybody looks like everybody else, half awake." "Even the Pharaoh?" "I've only seen the Pharaoh twice." "The first day they they brought me here... and when he decided I was to be your slave." "His first gift to you." "And what is he like?" "Well, the priests say he's a living god." "I thought he was more like a man." "A very cruel man sometimes." "What's your name?" "Hagar." "How did you come here?" "My father lost his farm." "He had debts." "I'm the payment." "Do you have to stay long?" "Mistress, no one ever leaves." "We are racing to get you ready, but it might be weeks before he wants you." "Then, if you don't resist... the worst thing that happens... is the usual thing that happens between a man and a woman." "They were wrong as usual." "I was told you were one of the most beautiful women... ever to arrive from the desert." "But they were wrong." "You're one of the most beautiful women... to arrive from anywhere." "Come." "Sit down." "What are you thinking?" "Are you afraid to answer?" "I've never punished anyone for their thoughts" "Are you thinking what's going to happen between us?" "Nothing will happen." "Nothing you don't want to happen." "You don't believe me?" "You're very lovely." "But there're many beautiful women around me..." "And I'm quite powerful." "But the mere exercise of power... I find boring." "I hope we're going to be friends." "If we are to be more than friends..." "That's something.." "you will decide." "Now it's the time for my prayers." "I'm a god in exile on this earth." "There are times I need to ask my heavenly brothers...the advice" "...and in addition the Pharaoh exists any further discripancies will not be tolerated..." "The Pharaoh is displeased.." "and will not tolerate any furthur disturbances" "We await your reply." "Go!" "Eliezer." "Abram, please!" "Come away." "Remain here... and your life won't be worth an Egyptian arrow." "She's too well guarded." "I've tried to bribe a man who said he has friends at court." "He's vanished with my silver." "Abram..." "Don't forget, you're responsible for many others." "They still need you." "Sarai is lost, to you and us." "We all mourn her." "But it's time you look at reality... and it's cruel face." "Sarai belongs to a man they call Pharaoh, a god in his own right." "Sarai is mine." "She will always be mine." "Only mine!" "How dare you presume to be wiser than God?" "He knows my heart." "He knows it would be better to have me killed than sentence me... to a life without her." "Go!" "Go." "Leave!" "Leave me!" "Alone!" "And there I'm having a storehouse built." "And I'm giving them a school." "A school?" "A school." "I've built schools from Nubia to the delta." "Uneducated people make a weak nation." "And this is something very interesting." "What is that?" "It looks like a mountain." "It will be as high as a mountain." "and large enough..." "To do what?" "To stop the rush of time." "A pyramid is like a dam on the flowing river... of time." "Inside there will be... a chamber, a place..." "of eternal being." "Where nothing can change, time cannot erode." "There, I will have eternal life." "Your tomb." "Yes, for some time in the future." "For now, it is a stronghold... to guard my present." "A present I would like to offer you." "My needs are simpler than that." "What are your needs?" "Tell me." "What do you want?" "Anything!" "Anything?" "Yes, anything within my power." "I want to see my family, my brother." "I want to go back to my people." "Mistress?" "I thought that maybe you'd like a taste of our dates." "You're hurt?" "No." "Yes." "He's playing with me," "Torturing me." "He's trying to... tear me away from my own heart." "Did the Pharaoh threaten you?" "He shows me kindness." "He treats you like he's treated no one else before." "And he's been very generous to your people." "I am grateful to him for that." "But I hate myself for how it makes me feel." "By resisting him, I keep my pride." "But it hurts me to think that I'm... endangering my people." "His anger could fall on them." "Tell me..." "has any woman ever..." "Escaped from here?" "No." "They try, but they did not succeed." "Help!" "Bring water!" "Call the doctor, quickly." "Help!" "Your Majesty has had a dream?" "l'm in pain., I'm burning." "Tell me your dream, Your Majesty." "So that I may render its meaning." "Help me.I'm burning.." "I'm in pain.." "This is a sign of how deeply your dream, your majesty.." "It's not a dream!" "I'm on fire!" "My Pharaoh, You too" "Your wives... your children..." "they are like you." "All affected." "l've been poisoned." "Someone has poisoned me and my family!" "But who, Majesty?" "But, whoever it is, kill them!" "Kill them!" "Kill them!" "It burns!" "It burns!" "You incompetent idiot!" "We are doing what we can, my Pharaoh." "Get me out." "Get me out!" "Get me out!" "We are doing what we can, my Pharaoh." "A divine power, a god unknown to us... has unleashed his curse." "Curse, what curse?" "A god unknown to us?" "A god unknown to me?" "I am god here!" "Your Majesty, the affliction is spreading among our populace." "A panic is building., more and more people." "Our doctors are becoming desperate." "Pharaoh, I suspect this is maybe... the curse of a foreign god, a god has journeyed here with the foreigners." "Perhaps the desert people we allowed to enter Egypt." "The desert people?" "You mean the people of the women, Sarai?" "Yes Majesty." "Majesty,We have come to learn something... that could explain the wrath of a god of these nomads." "A god under whose protection the woman called Sarai might be." "We have arrested the leader of her people." "Her brother." "Her husband, your Majesty." "We should exterminate them." "Kill them all." "The men, the women, the children." "The entire filthy tribe!" "Have him brought here, at once." "Let him come in." "ln." "On your knees." "I said on your knees." "Let him stand." "Come closer." "I can't see you." "Come closer." "You see what you have done to me... to my family and my people?" "By your deceit." "Some god has taken revenge... for an offence, of which I'm innocent." "Why did you lie to us?" "Why did you say she's your sister?" "Why?" "Why?" "I lied." "But to my God... it's a greater offence to kill a man and steal his wife... than it is to lie." "What god?" "A strange god." "What sort of mysterious god... is he?" "Strange, yes." "And mysterious." "He has spoken to me and...." "He has spoken to you?" "Yes." "How?" "ln here." "He has guided my people." "He let your people enter my Egypt?" "Why?" "Why?" "I don't know." "I don't know even even if He has." "You see." "You don't know." "It's only imagination, it's all your fantasy." "What sort of a god is that?" "Do you think it's just that we have to suffer?" "My people, my family and me?" "Because of your lie?" "Can't he take this curse off us?" "Who are you?" "Abram, a shepherd." "Shepherd." "Where is Sarai?" "Your wife is my property." "She is..." "in my household." "Your god has sent her to me." "To me." "There are many things of which I'm uncertain." "But one thing I'm certain of... is that my God did not send her to you." "Look to her!" "is she not without affliction?" "My God said: "l will bless those who bless you..."" ""and I will curse those who curse you."" "Look at her." "Take him away." "Wait!" "I don't want to challenge your God anymore." "Thus the Pharaoh decides..:" "Take your wife, the slaves I gave her, take everything I gave you and your people." "Everything you have touched and be gone from my sight." "Out of Egypt." "And take your contamination with you." "Go." "Out!" "Out of here!" "Don't touch them and be aware of the affliction." "Get out!" "Hurry up!" "Out!" "Hurry up!" "out!" "out!" "out" "Get out of here!" "Don't touch them!" "Get out!" "You are the rodents of desert" "Water, water!" "We found it!" "They found water!" "Abram, Lot discovered water." "You are back, Abram." "l am home, Mambre" "You are digging wells." "We will need water." "And you have found more" "Much more." "And we will share it with our neighbors." "And, as neighbors, our friends are your friends, and our enemies are your enemies." "Yes." "So be it." "Stop it!" "Stop this nonsense right now" "And you stop it as well!" "What have you done?" "You could have killed him." "Lot's men will not let us water our herds here." "Have you lost your minds?" "We're one family!" "the water is for all of us!" "I am ashamed of you." "All of you." "And I hope that you are ashamed of yourselves!" "Now Serug..." "But Lot's men..." "Violence will not solve problems." "Other pastures beyond that river are overgrazed and turning brown." "If we do not leave enough grass... the spring rains will wash away the soil." "Then I must move my herds." "Move your herds?" "Uncle, I prefer to keep what's yours and what's mine apart."
