Genesis 18:2-22

2When he liftedH5375 up his eyesH5869 and lookedH7200, beholdH2009, threeH7969 1menH376 were standingH5324 oppositeH5921 him; and when he sawH7200 them, he ranH7323 from the tentH168 doorH6607 to meetH7122 them and bowedH7812 himself to the earthH776, 3and saidH559, “2My LordH113, ifH518 nowH4994 I have foundH4672 favorH2580 in Your sightH5869, pleaseH4994 do not 3passH5674 Your servantH5650 by. 4PleaseH4994 let a littleH4592 waterH4325 be broughtH3947 and 4washH7364 your feetH7272, and 5restH8172 yourselvesH8172 underH8478 the treeH6086; 5and I will 67bringH3947 a pieceH6595 of breadH3899, that you may 8refreshH5582 yourselvesH3820; afterH310 that you may goH5674 on, sinceH3588H5921H3651 you have 9visitedH5674 your servantH5650.” And they saidH559, “SoH3651 doH6213, as you have saidH1696.” 6So AbrahamH85 hurriedH4116 into the tentH168 to SarahH8283, and saidH559, “10QuicklyH4116, prepareH4116 threeH7969 11measuresH5429 of fineH5560 flourH7058H5560, kneadH3888 it and makeH6213 breadH5692 cakesH5692.” 7AbrahamH85 also ranH7323 to the herdH1241, and tookH3947 a tenderH7390 and 12choiceH2896 calfH1121H1241 and gaveH5414 it to the servantH5288, and he hurriedH4116 to prepareH6213 it. 8He tookH3947 curdsH2529 and milkH2461 and the calfH1121H1241 whichH834 he had preparedH6213, and placedH5414 it beforeH6440 them; and he was standingH5975 by them underH8478 the treeH6086 13as they ateH398.

9Then they saidH559 to him, “WhereH335 is SarahH8283 your wifeH802?” And he saidH559, “ThereH2009, in the tentH168.” 10He saidH559, “14I will surelyH7725 returnH7725 to you 15at this timeH6256 nextH2416 yearH2416; and beholdH2009, SarahH8283 your wifeH802 will have a sonH1121.” And SarahH8283 was listeningH8085 at the tentH168 doorH6607, whichH1931 was behindH310 him. 11Now 16AbrahamH85 and SarahH8283 were oldH2205, advancedH935 in ageH3117; SarahH8283 was 17pastH2308 18childbearingH734H802. 12SarahH8283 laughedH6711 19to herselfH7130, sayingH559, “20AfterH310 I have becomeH1086 oldH1086, shall I haveH1961 pleasureH5734, my 21lordH113 beingH2204 oldH2204 also?” 13And the LordH3068 saidH559 to AbrahamH85, “WhyH4100 did SarahH8283 laughH6711, sayingH559, ‘Shall I indeedH637H552 22bearH3205 a child, when I amH2204 so oldH2204?’ 1423Is anythingH1697 tooH4480 24difficultH6381 for the LordH3068? At the 25appointedH4150 timeH4150 I will returnH7725 to you, 26at thisH2416 timeH6256 nextH2416 yearH2416, and SarahH8283 will have a sonH1121.” 15SarahH8283 deniedH3584 it however, sayingH559, “I did not laughH6711”; for she was afraidH3372. And He saidH559, “NoH3808, but you did laughH6711.”

16Then 27the menH376 roseH6965 up from thereH8033, and lookedH8259 downH8259 towardH5921H6440 SodomH5467; and AbrahamH85 was walkingH1980 with them to sendH7971 them off. 1728The LordH3068 saidH559, “Shall I hideH3680 from AbrahamH85 29whatH834 I am about to doH6213, 18since AbrahamH85 will surelyH1961 becomeH1961 a greatH1419 and 30mightyH6099 nationH1471, and in him 31allH3605 the nationsH1471 of the earthH776 will be blessedH1288? 19For I have 3233chosenH3045 him, soH4616 that he may 34commandH6680 his childrenH1121 and his householdH1004 afterH310 him to 35keepH8104 the wayH1870 of the LordH3068 by doingH6213 righteousnessH6666 and justiceH4941, soH4616 that the LordH3068 may bringH935 upon AbrahamH85 36whatH834 He has spokenH1696 aboutH5921 him.” 20And the LordH3068 saidH559, “37The outcryH2201 of SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017 is indeedH3588 greatH7231, and their sinH2403 is exceedinglyH3966 graveH3513. 21I will 38goH3381 downH3381 nowH4994, and seeH7200 if they have doneH6213 entirelyH3617 according to its outcryH6818, which has comeH935 to Me; and ifH518 not, I will knowH3045.”

22Then 39the menH376 turnedH6437 awayH6437 from thereH8033 and wentH1980 toward SodomH5467, while AbrahamH85 was stillH5750 standingH5975 beforeH6440 40the LordH3068.
