OET (OET-LV) And_chose to_him/it Lōţ DOM all the_valley the_Yarddēn and_journeyed Lōţ from_east and_separated each from_under his/its_woman.
OET (OET-RV) Lot chose all of the Jordan plain for himself, and so he travelled to the east and they separated from each other.
וַיִּבְחַר ל֣וֹ ל֗וֹט אֵ֚ת כָּל כִּכַּ֣ר הַיַּרְדֵּ֔ן
and,chose to=him/it Lōţ DOM all/each/any/every plain the,Jordan
See how you translated plain of the Jordan in verse 10. Alternate translation: “Then Lot chose the whole Jordan River Plain for himself,” or “Then Lot decided to live in the valley that surrounded the Jordan River,”

וַיִּסַּ֥ע ל֖וֹט
and,journeyed Lōţ
Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Also consider whether it is better in your language to use Lot’s name or a pronoun to refer to him here. Alternate translation: “and he moved” or “Then Lot left Abram and moved”
מִקֶּ֑דֶם
from=east
The Hebrew text is ambiguous here. It could mean: (1) “to/toward the east to live there” or “eastward” or (2) “from the east”
Note 2 topic: writing-pronouns
וַיִּפָּ֣רְד֔וּ אִ֖ישׁ מֵעַ֥ל אָחִֽיו
and,separated (a)_man from=under his/its=woman
Consider whether or not it is better in your language to begin a new sentence here. Also consider what is the best way to refer to Abram and Lot at this point in the paragraph. Alternate translation: “So in this way they lived separately from each other.” or “That is how Abram and Lot ended up living in separate places.”
13:11 Lot’s choice was totally selfish, without concern for Abram or faith in the Lord.
• The region called the whole Jordan Valley (literally the circle of the Jordan) is believed to have been near the south end of the Dead Sea, based on descriptions in ancient records that locate cities of the Plain. This area is now very desolate.
OET (OET-LV) And_chose to_him/it Lōţ DOM all the_valley the_Yarddēn and_journeyed Lōţ from_east and_separated each from_under his/its_woman.
OET (OET-RV) Lot chose all of the Jordan plain for himself, and so he travelled to the east and they separated from each other.
Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
