Genesis 18:25-32

25FarH2486 beH1961 it from thee to do so, to slay the righteousH6662 with the wickedH7563, that the righteousH6662 should beH1961 as the wickedH7563 — farH2486 beH1961 it from thee! Will not the JudgeH8199 of all the earthH776 do rightH4941?

26And Jehovah saidH559, If I findH4672 at SodomH5467 fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 within the cityH5892, then I will forgiveH5375 all the placeH4725 for their sakes.

27And AbrahamH85 answered and saidH559, Behold now, I have ventured to speakH1696 unto the LordH136; I, who am dustH6083 and ashesH665.

28PerhapsH194 there may want fiveH2568 of the fiftyH2572 righteousH6662: wilt thou destroyH7843 all the cityH5892 on account of the fiveH2568? And he saidH559, If I shall findH4672 forty-fiveH705 there, I will not destroyH7843 [it].

29And he continued yetH5750 to speakH1696 with him, and saidH559, PerhapsH194 there may be fortyH705 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not do it for the forty's sakeH5668.

30And he saidH559, Oh, let not the LordH136 be angryH2734 that I speakH1696! PerhapsH194 there may be thirtyH7970 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not do it if I findH4672 thirtyH7970 there.

31And he saidH559, Behold now, I have ventured to speakH1696 with the LordH136. PerhapsH194 there may be twentyH6242 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 [it] for the twenty's sakeH5668.

32And he saidH559, Oh, let not the LordH136 be angryH2734, that I speakH1696 yet but this timeH6471! PerhapsH194 there may be tenH6235 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will not destroyH7843 [it] for the ten's sakeH5668.
