Genesis
18 |
| |
|
|
|
|
 |
|
Genesis 18:1
|
|
And Jehovah
appeared unto him by the oaks of Mamre,
as he sat in the tent door in the heat of
the day; |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:2
|
|
and he lifted
up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men
stood over against him: and when he saw
them, he ran to meet them from the tent
door, and bowed himself to the earth, |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:3
|
|
and said,
My lord, if now I have found favor in thy
sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from
thy servant: |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:4
|
|
let
now a little water be fetched, and wash
your feet, and rest yourselves under the
tree: |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:5
|
|
and I will
fetch a morsel of bread, and strengthen
ye your heart; after that ye shall pass
on: forasmuch as ye are come to your servant.
And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:6
|
|
And Abraham
hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said,
Make ready quickly three measures of fine
meal, knead it, and make cakes. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:7
|
|
And Abraham
ran unto the herd, and fetched a calf tender
and good, and gave it unto the servant;
and he hasted to dress it. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:8
|
|
And he took
butter, and milk, and the calf which he
had dressed, and set it before them; and
he stood by them under the tree, and they
did eat. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:9
|
|
And they
said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife?
And he said, Behold, in the tent. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:10
|
|
And he said,
I will certainly return unto thee when the
season cometh round; and, lo, Sarah thy
wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard in
the tent door, which was behind him. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:11
|
|
Now Abraham
and Sarah were old, and well stricken in
age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after
the manner of women. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:12
|
|
And Sarah
laughed within herself, saying, After I
am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord
being old also? |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:13
|
|
And Jehovah
said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child,
who am old? |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:14
|
|
Is anything
too hard for Jehovah? At the set time I
will return unto thee, when the season cometh
round, and Sarah shall have a son. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:15
|
|
Then Sarah
denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was
afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst
laugh. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:16
|
|
And the
men rose up from thence, and looked toward
Sodom:
and Abraham went with them to bring them
on the way. |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:17
|
|
And Jehovah
said, Shall I hide from Abraham that which
I do; |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:18
|
|
seeing that
Abraham had surely become a great and mighty
nation, and all the nations of the earth
shall be blessed in him? |
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:19
|
|
For I have
known him, to the end that he may command
his children and his household after him,
that they may keep the way of Jehovah, to
do righteousness and justice; to the end
that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham that
which he hath spoken of him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:20
|
|
And Jehovah
said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah
is great, and because their sin is very
grievous; |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:21
|
|
I will go
down now, and see whether they have done
altogether according to the cry of it, which
is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:22
|
|
And the
men turned from thence, and went toward
Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before Jehovah.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:23
|
|
And Abraham
drew near, and said, Wilt thou consume the
righteous with the wicked? |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:24
|
|
Peradventure
there are fifty righteous within the city:
wilt thou consume and not spare the place
for the fifty righteous that are therein?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:25
|
|
That be
far from thee to do after this manner, to
slay the righteous with the wicked, that
so the righteous should be as the wicked;
that be far from thee: shall not the Judge
of all the earth do right? |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:26
|
|
And Jehovah
said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous
within the city, then I will spare all the
place for their sake. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:27
|
|
And Abraham
answered and said, Behold now, I have taken
upon me to speak unto the Lord, who am but
dust and ashes: |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:28
|
|
peradventure
there shall lack five of the fifty righteous:
wilt thou destroy all the city for lack
of five? And he said, I will not destroy
it, if I find there forty and five. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:29
|
|
And he spake
unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure
there shall be forty found there. And he
said, I will not do it for the forty's sake.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:30
|
|
And he said,
Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will
speak: peradventure there shall thirty be
found there. And he said, I will not do
it, if I find thirty there. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:31
|
|
And he said,
Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak
unto the Lord: peradventure there shall
be twenty found there. And he said, I will
not destroy it for the twenty's sake. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:32
|
|
And he said,
Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will
speak yet but this once: peradventure ten
shall be found there. And he said, I will
not destroy it for the ten's sake. |
|
|
|
|
|
Genesis 18:33
|
|
And Jehovah
went his way, as soon as he had left off
communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned
unto his place. |
