And Jehovah said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sake.

Behold now, I have two daughters that have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto these men do nothing, forasmuch as they are come under the shadow of my roof.

peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, I will not destroy it, if I find there forty and five.

But the men put forth their hand, and brought Lot into the house to them, and shut to the door.

Then Jehovah rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah out of heaven;

for we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxed great before Jehovah: and Jehovah hath sent us to destroy it.

The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot came unto Zoar.

and he overthrew those cities, and all the Plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.

But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.

And he said, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.

And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name Ben-ammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.

And it came to pass on the morrow, that the first-born said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.

And the men turned from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before Jehovah.

Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.

And Jehovah said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, who am old?

And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou consume the righteous with the wicked?

For I have known him, to the end that he may command his children and his household after him, that they may keep the way of Jehovah, to do righteousness and justice; to the end that Jehovah may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.

And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.

Is anything too hard for Jehovah? At the set time I will return unto thee, when the season cometh round, and Sarah shall have a son.

And Jehovah said, Shall I hide from Abraham that which I do;

And Jehovah said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;

Peradventure there are fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou consume and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?

seeing that Abraham had surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?

And he said, I will certainly return unto thee when the season cometh round; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard in the tent door, which was behind him.

And Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

And Jehovah appeared unto him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;

Now Abraham and Sarah were old, `and' well stricken in age; it had ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
