Genesis 18:1-33

18:1

And the LORD
<03068>

appeared
<07200> (8735)

unto him in the plains
<0436>

of Mamre
<04471>_:

and he sat
<03427> (8802)

in the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>

in the heat
<02527>

of the day
<03117>_;

{plain: Heb. plains}

18:2

And he lift up
<05375> (8799)

his eyes
<05869>

and looked
<07200> (8799)_,

and, lo, three
<07969>

men
<0582>

stood
<05324> (8737)

by him: and when he saw
<07200> (8799)

[them], he ran
<07323> (8799)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

them from the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>_,

and bowed
<07812> (8691)

himself toward the ground
<0776>_,

18:3

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

My Lord
<0136>_,

if now I have found
<04672> (8804)

favour
<02580>

in thy sight
<05869>_,

pass not away
<05674> (8799)_,

I pray thee, from thy servant
<05650>_:

18:4

Let a little
<04592>

water
<04325>_,

I pray you
<04994>_,

be fetched
<03947> (8714)_,

and wash
<07364> (8798)

your feet
<07272>_,

and rest yourselves
<08172> (8734)

under the tree
<06086>_:

18:5

And I will fetch
<03947> (8799)

a morsel
<06595>

of bread
<03899>_,

and comfort ye
<05582> (8798)

your hearts
<03820>_;

after that
<0310>

ye shall pass on
<05674> (8799)_:

for therefore are ye come
<05674> (8804)

to
<05921>

your servant
<05650>_.

And they said
<01696> (8765)_,

So do
<06213> (8799)_,

as thou hast said
<0559> (8799)_.

{comfort: Heb. stay} {are...: Heb. you have passed}

18:6

And Abraham
<085>

hastened
<04116> (8762)

into the tent
<0168>

unto Sarah
<08283>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Make ready quickly
<04116> (8761)

three
<07969>

measures
<05429>

of fine
<05560>

meal
<07058>_,

knead
<03888> (8798)

[it], and make
<06213> (0)

cakes
<05692>

upon the hearth
<06213> (8798)_.

{Make ready...: Heb. Hasten}

18:7

And Abraham
<085>

ran
<07323> (8804)

unto the herd
<01241>_,

and fetcht
<03947> (8799)

a calf
<01121> <01241>

tender
<07390>

and good
<02896>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

[it] unto a young man
<05288>_;

and he hasted
<04116> (8762)

to dress
<06213> (8800)

it.

18:8

And he took
<03947> (8799)

butter
<02529>_,

and milk
<02461>_,

and the calf
<01121> <01241>

which he had dressed
<06213> (8804)_,

and set
<05414> (8799)

[it] before them
<06440>_;

and he stood
<05975> (8802)

by them under the tree
<06086>_,

and they did eat
<0398> (8799)_.

18:9

And they said
<0559> (8799)

unto him, Where
<0346>

[is] Sarah
<08283>

thy wife
<0802>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold, in the tent
<0168>_.

18:10

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will certainly
<07725> (8800)

return
<07725> (8799)

unto thee according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_;

and, lo, Sarah
<08283>

thy wife
<0802>

shall have a son
<01121>_.

And Sarah
<08283>

heard
<08085> (8802)

[it] in the tent
<0168>

door
<06607>_,

which [was] behind him
<0310>_.

18:11

Now Abraham
<085>

and Sarah
<08283>

[were] old
<02205>

[and] well stricken
<0935> (8802)

in age
<03117>_;

[and] it ceased
<02308> (8804)

to be with Sarah
<08283>

after the manner
<0734>

of women
<0802>_.

18:12

Therefore Sarah
<08283>

laughed
<06711> (8799)

within herself
<07130>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

After
<0310>

I am waxed old
<01086> (8800)

shall I have pleasure
<05730>_,

my lord
<0113>

being old also
<02204> (8804)_?

18:13

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Abraham
<085>_,

Wherefore
<04100>

did Sarah
<08283>

laugh
<06711> (8804)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Shall I of a surety
<0552>

bear
<03205> (8799)

a child, which
<0589>

am old
<02204> (8804)_?

18:14

Is
<06381> (0)

any thing
<01697>

too hard
<06381> (8735)

for the LORD
<03068>_?

At the time appointed
<04150>

I will return
<07725> (8799)

unto thee, according to the time
<06256>

of life
<02416>_,

and Sarah
<08283>

shall have a son
<01121>_.

18:15

Then Sarah
<08283>

denied
<03584> (8762)_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

I laughed
<06711> (8804)

not; for she was afraid
<03372> (8804)_.

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Nay
<03808>_;

but thou didst laugh
<06711> (8804)_.

18:16

And the men
<0582>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

from thence, and looked
<08259> (8686)

toward
<06440>

Sodom
<05467>_:

and Abraham
<085>

went
<01980> (8802)

with them to bring them on the way
<07971> (8763)_.

18:17

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

Shall I hide
<03680> (8764)

from Abraham
<085>

that thing which
<0834>

I do
<06213> (8802)_;

18:18

Seeing that Abraham
<085>

shall surely become a great
<01419>

and mighty
<06099>

nation
<01471>_,

and all the nations
<01471>

of the earth
<0776>

shall be blessed
<01288> (8738)

in him?

18:19

For I know
<03045> (8804)

him, that
<0834>

he will command
<06680> (8762)

his children
<01121>

and his household
<01004>

after him
<0310>_,

and they shall keep
<08104> (8804)

the way
<01870>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

to do
<06213> (8800)

justice
<06666>

and judgment
<04941>_;

that the LORD
<03068>

may bring
<0935> (8687)

upon Abraham
<085>

that which he hath spoken
<01696> (8765)

of him.

18:20

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Because the cry
<02201>

of Sodom
<05467>

and Gomorrah
<06017>

is great
<07227>_,

and because their sin
<02403>

is very
<03966>

grievous
<03513> (8804)_;

18:21

I will go down
<03381> (8799)

now, and see
<07200> (8799)

whether they have done
<06213> (8804)

altogether
<03617>

according to the cry
<06818>

of it, which is come
<0935> (8802)

unto me; and if not, I will know
<03045> (8799)_.

18:22

And the men
<0582>

turned their faces
<06437> (8799)

from thence, and went
<03212> (8799)

toward Sodom
<05467>_:

but Abraham
<085>

stood
<05975> (8802)

yet
<05750>

before
<06440>

the LORD
<03068>_.

18:23

And Abraham
<085>

drew near
<05066> (8799)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wilt thou also destroy
<05595> (8799)

the righteous
<06662>

with
<05973>

the wicked
<07563>_?

18:24

Peradventure there be
<03426>

fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

within
<08432>

the city
<05892>_:

wilt thou also destroy
<05595> (8799)

and not spare
<05375> (8799)

the place
<04725>

for
<04616>

the fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

that [are] therein
<07130>_?

18:25

That be far
<02486>

from thee to do
<06213> (8800)

after this manner
<01697>_,

to slay
<04191> (8687)

the righteous
<06662>

with the wicked
<07563>_:

and that the righteous
<06662>

should be as the wicked
<07563>_,

that be far
<02486>

from thee: Shall not the Judge
<08199> (8802)

of all the earth
<0776>

do
<06213> (8799)

right
<04941>_?

18:26

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

If I find
<04672> (8799)

in Sodom
<05467>

fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>

within
<08432>

the city
<05892>_,

then I will spare
<05375> (8804)

all the place
<04725>

for their sakes.

18:27

And Abraham
<085>

answered
<06030> (8799)

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, I have taken upon me
<02974> (8689)

to speak
<01696> (8763)

unto the Lord
<0136>_,

which
<0595>

[am but] dust
<06083>

and ashes
<0665>_:

18:28

Peradventure there shall lack
<02637> (8799)

five
<02568>

of the fifty
<02572>

righteous
<06662>_:

wilt thou destroy
<07843> (8686)

all the city
<05892>

for [lack of] five
<02568>_?

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

If I find
<04672> (8799)

there forty
<0705>

and five
<02568>_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it].

18:29

And he spake
<01696> (8763)

unto him yet again
<03254> (8686)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Peradventure there shall be forty
<0705>

found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not do
<06213> (8799)

[it] for forty's
<0705>

sake.

18:30

And he said
<0559> (8799)

[unto him], Oh
<04994>

let not the Lord
<0136>

be angry
<02734> (8799)_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)_:

Peradventure there shall thirty
<07970>

be found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not do
<06213> (8799)

[it], if I find
<04672> (8799)

thirty
<07970>

there.

18:31

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Behold now, I have taken upon me
<02974> (8689)

to speak
<01696> (8763)

unto the Lord
<0136>_:

Peradventure there shall be twenty
<06242>

found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it] for twenty's
<06242>

sake.

18:32

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Oh let not the Lord
<0136>

be angry
<02734> (8799)_,

and I will speak
<01696> (8762)

yet
<0389>

but this once
<06471>_:

Peradventure ten
<06235>

shall be found
<04672> (8735)

there. And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will not destroy
<07843> (8686)

[it] for ten's
<06235>

sake.

18:33

And the LORD
<03068>

went his way
<03212> (8799)_,

as soon as
<0834>

he had left
<03615> (8765)

communing
<01696> (8763)

with Abraham
<085>_:

and Abraham
<085>

returned
<07725> (8804)

unto his place
<04725>_.

<085>

reproved
<03198> (8689)

<040>

because
<0182>

of a well
<0875>

of water
<04325>_,

<040>

servants
<05650>

had violently taken away
<01497> (8804)_.

be delivered
<05414> (8735)

into the hand

began

us
