Genesis 18:24

18:24 What if there are fifty godly people in the city? Will you really wipe it out and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty godly people who are in it?

Genesis 18:26

18:26 So the Lord replied, “If I find in the city of Sodom fifty godly people, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”


tn Heb “lift up,” perhaps in the sense of “bear with” (cf. NRSV “forgive”).
