Genesis 18:2-5

2When he raised his eyes and looked, behold, three 1men were standing opposite him; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them and bowed down to the ground,

3and said, “2My Lord, if now I have found favor in Your sight, please do not 3pass Your servant by.

4Please let a little water be brought and 4wash 5your feet, and make yourselves comfortable under the tree;

5and I will 67bring a piece of bread, so that you may 8refresh yourselves; after that you may go on, since you have 9visited your servant.” And they said, “So do as you have said.”
