Genesis 18:25-32

25That be farH2486 from thee to doH6213 afterH1961 this mannerH1697, to slayH4191 the righteousH6662 with the wickedH7563, that soH6213 the righteousH6662 should be as the wickedH7563; that be farH2486 from thee: shall notH3808 the JudgeH8199 of allH3605 the earthH776 doH6213 rightH4941?

26And the LORDH3068 saidH559, IfH518 I findH4672 in SodomH5467 fiftyH2572 righteousH6662 withinH8432 the cityH5892, then I will spareH5375 allH3605 the placeH4725 for their sakeH5668.

27And AbrahamH85 answeredH559 and saidH559, BeholdH2009 nowH4994, I have taken uponH413 meH413 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136, which am but dustH6083 and ashesH665:

28peradventure there shall lackH2637 fiveH2568 of the fiftyH2572 righteousH6662: wilt thou destroyH7843 allH3605 the cityH5892 for lackH2637 of fiveH2568? And he saidH559, I will notH3808 destroyH7843 it, ifH518 I findH4672 there fortyH705 and fiveH2568.

29And he spake unto him yet againH5750, and saidH559, Peradventure there shall be fortyH705 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will notH3808 doH6213 it for the forty’s sakeH5668.

30And he saidH559, OhH4994 letH4994 notH3808 the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696: peradventure there shall thirtyH7970 be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will notH3808 doH6213 it, ifH518 I findH4672 thirtyH7970 there.

31And he saidH559, BeholdH2009 nowH4994, I have takenH4672 uponH413 meH413 to speakH1696 unto the LordH136: peradventure there shall be twentyH6242 foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will notH3808 destroyH7843 it for the twenty’s sakeH5668.

32And he saidH559, OhH4994 letH4994 notH3808 the LordH136 be angryH2734, and I will speakH1696 yet but this onceH6471: peradventure tenH6235 shall be foundH4672 there. And he saidH559, I will notH3808 destroyH7843 it for the ten’s sakeH5668.
