Genesis 18:3-8
3and said, “1My Lord, if now I have found favor in Your sight, please do not 2pass Your servant by. 4Please let a little water be brought and 3wash 4your feet, and make yourselves comfortable under the tree; 5and I will 56bring a piece of bread, so that you may 7refresh yourselves; after that you may go on, since you have 8visited your servant.” And they said, “So do as you have said.” 6So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah, and said, “9Quickly, prepare three 10measures of fine flour, knead it, and make bread cakes.” 7Abraham also ran to the herd, and took a tender and 11choice calf and gave it to the servant, and he hurried to prepare it. 8He took curds and milk and the calf which he had prepared, and set it before them; and he was standing by them under the tree 12as they ate.
