1 And the LORD <03068> appeared <07200> (8735) unto him in the plains <0436> of Mamre <04471>: and he sat <03427> (8802) in the tent <0168> door <06607> in the heat <02527> of the day <03117>;
2 And he lift up <05375> (8799) his eyes <05869> and looked <07200> (8799), and, lo, three <07969> men <0582> stood <05324> (8737) by him: and when he saw <07200> (8799) them, he ran <07323> (8799) to meet <07125> (8800) them from the tent <0168> door <06607>, and bowed <07812> (8691) himself toward the ground <0776>,
3 And said <0559> (8799), My Lord <0136>, if now I have found <04672> (8804) favour <02580> in thy sight <05869>, pass not away <05674> (8799), I pray thee, from thy servant <05650>:

4 Let a little <04592> water <04325>, I pray you <04994>, be fetched <03947> (8714), and wash <07364> (8798) your feet <07272>, and rest yourselves <08172> (8734) under the tree <06086>:
5 And I will fetch <03947> (8799) a morsel <06595> of bread <03899>, and comfort ye <05582> (8798) your hearts <03820>; after that <0310> ye shall pass on <05674> (8799): for therefore are ye come <05674> (8804) to <05921> your servant <05650>. And they said <01696> (8765), So do <06213> (8799), as thou hast said <0559> (8799) .
6 And Abraham <085> hastened <04116> (8762) into the tent <0168> unto Sarah <08283>, and said <0559> (8799), Make ready quickly <04116> (8761) three <07969> measures <05429> of fine <05560> meal <07058>, knead <03888> (8798) it, and make <06213> <00> cakes <05692> upon the hearth <06213> (8798).
7 And Abraham <085> ran <07323> (8804) unto the herd <01241>, and fetcht <03947> (8799) a calf <01121> <01241> tender <07390> and good <02896>, and gave <05414> (8799) it unto a young man <05288>; and he hasted <04116> (8762) to dress <06213> (8800) it.
8 And he took <03947> (8799) butter <02529>, and milk <02461>, and the calf <01121> <01241> which he had dressed <06213> (8804), and set <05414> (8799) it before them <06440>; and he stood <05975> (8802) by them under the tree <06086>, and they did eat <0398> (8799).
9 And they said <0559> (8799) unto him, Where <0346> is Sarah <08283> thy wife <0802>? And he said <0559> (8799), Behold, in the tent <0168>.
10 And he said <0559> (8799), I will certainly <07725> (8800) return <07725> (8799) unto thee according to the time <06256> of life <02416>; and, lo, Sarah <08283> thy wife <0802> shall have a son <01121>. And Sarah <08283> heard <08085> (8802) it in the tent <0168> door <06607>, which was behind him <0310>.
11 Now Abraham <085> and Sarah <08283> were old <02205> and well stricken <0935> (8802) in age <03117>; and it ceased <02308> (8804) to be with Sarah <08283> after the manner <0734> of women <0802>.
12 Therefore Sarah <08283> laughed <06711> (8799) within herself <07130>, saying <0559> (8800), After <0310> I am waxed old <01086> (8800) shall I have pleasure <05730>, my lord <0113> being old also <02204> (8804) ?
13 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto Abraham <085>, Wherefore <04100> did Sarah <08283> laugh <06711> (8804), saying <0559> (8800), Shall I of a surety <0552> bear <03205> (8799) a child, which <0589> am old <02204> (8804)?
14 Is <06381> <00> any thing <01697> too hard <06381> (8735) for the LORD <03068>? At the time appointed <04150> I will return <07725> (8799) unto thee, according to the time <06256> of life <02416>, and Sarah <08283> shall have a son <01121>.
15 Then Sarah <08283> denied <03584> (8762), saying <0559> (8800), I laughed <06711> (8804) not; for she was afraid <03372> (8804). And he said <0559> (8799), Nay <03808>; but thou didst laugh <06711> (8804) .
16 And the men <0582> rose up <06965> (8799) from thence, and looked <08259> (8686) toward <06440> Sodom <05467>: and Abraham <085> went <01980> (8802) with them to bring them on the way <07971> (8763).
17 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8804), Shall I hide <03680> (8764) from Abraham <085> that thing which <0834> I do <06213> (8802);
18 Seeing that Abraham <085> shall surely become a great <01419> and mighty <06099> nation <01471>, and all the nations <01471> of the earth <0776> shall be blessed <01288> (8738) in him?
19 For I know <03045> (8804) him, that <0834> he will command <06680> (8762) his children <01121> and his household <01004> after him <0310>, and they shall keep <08104> (8804) the way <01870> of the LORD <03068>, to do <06213> (8800) justice <06666> and judgment <04941>; that the LORD <03068> may bring <0935> (8687) upon Abraham <085> that which he hath spoken <01696> (8765) of him.
20 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799), Because the cry <02201> of Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017> is great <07227>, and because their sin <02403> is very <03966> grievous <03513> (8804);
21 I will go down <03381> (8799) now, and see <07200> (8799) whether they have done <06213> (8804) altogether <03617> according to the cry <06818> of it, which is come <0935> (8802) unto me; and if not, I will know <03045> (8799) .
22 And the men <0582> turned their faces <06437> (8799) from thence, and went <03212> (8799) toward Sodom <05467>: but Abraham <085> stood <05975> (8802) yet <05750> before <06440> the LORD <03068>.
23 And Abraham <085> drew near <05066> (8799), and said <0559> (8799), Wilt thou also destroy <05595> (8799) the righteous <06662> with <05973> the wicked <07563>?
24 Peradventure there be <03426> fifty <02572> righteous <06662> within <08432> the city <05892>: wilt thou also destroy <05595> (8799) and not spare <05375> (8799) the place <04725> for <04616> the fifty <02572> righteous <06662> that are therein <07130>?
25 That be far <02486> from thee to do <06213> (8800) after this manner <01697>, to slay <04191> (8687) the righteous <06662> with the wicked <07563>: and that the righteous <06662> should be as the wicked <07563>, that be far <02486> from thee: Shall not the Judge <08199> (8802) of all the earth <0776> do <06213> (8799) right <04941>?
26 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799), If I find <04672> (8799) in Sodom <05467> fifty <02572> righteous <06662> within <08432> the city <05892>, then I will spare <05375> (8804) all the place <04725> for their sakes.
27 And Abraham <085> answered <06030> (8799) and said <0559> (8799), Behold now, I have taken upon me <02974> (8689) to speak <01696> (8763) unto the Lord <0136>, which <0595> am but dust <06083> and ashes <0665> :
28 Peradventure there shall lack <02637> (8799) five <02568> of the fifty <02572> righteous <06662>: wilt thou destroy <07843> (8686) all the city <05892> for lack of five <02568>? And he said <0559> (8799), If I find <04672> (8799) there forty <0705> and five <02568>, I will not destroy <07843> (8686) it.
29 And he spake <01696> (8763) unto him yet again <03254> (8686), and said <0559> (8799), Peradventure there shall be forty <0705> found <04672> (8735) there. And he said <0559> (8799), I will not do <06213> (8799) it for forty#s <0705> sake.
30 And he said <0559> (8799) unto him, Oh <04994> let not the Lord <0136> be angry <02734> (8799) , and I will speak <01696> (8762): Peradventure there shall thirty <07970> be found <04672> (8735) there. And he said <0559> (8799), I will not do <06213> (8799) it, if I find <04672> (8799) thirty <07970> there.
31 And he said <0559> (8799), Behold now, I have taken upon me <02974> (8689) to speak <01696> (8763) unto the Lord <0136>: Peradventure there shall be twenty <06242> found <04672> (8735) there. And he said <0559> (8799), I will not destroy <07843> (8686) it for twenty#s <06242> sake.
32 And he said <0559> (8799), Oh let not the Lord <0136> be angry <02734> (8799), and I will speak <01696> (8762) yet <0389> but this once <06471>: Peradventure ten <06235> shall be found <04672> (8735) there. And he said <0559> (8799), I will not destroy <07843> (8686) it for ten#s <06235> sake.
33 And the LORD <03068> went his way <03212> (8799), as soon as <0834> he had left <03615> (8765) communing <01696> (8763) with Abraham <085>: and Abraham <085> returned <07725> (8804) unto his place <04725>.
