Genesis 18:16-19

16Then 1the men rose up from there, and looked down toward Sodom; and Abraham was walking with them to send them off.

172The Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham 3what I am about to do,

18since Abraham will surely become a great and 4mighty nation, and in him 5all the nations of the earth will be blessed?

19For I have 67chosen him, so that he may 8command his children and his household after him to 9keep the way of the Lord by doing righteousness and justice, so that the Lord may bring upon Abraham 10what He has spoken about him.”
