And he appeared to him Yahweh at [the] great trees of Mamre and he [was] sitting [the] opening of the tent when [the] heat of the day.
2 And he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
And he lifted up eyes his and he saw and there! three men [were] standing with him and he saw and he ran to meet them from [the] opening of the tent and he bowed down [the] ground towards.
3 And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
And he said Lord my if please I have found favor in eyes your may not please you pass by from with servant your.
4 Let a little water, I pray you, be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
Let it be brought please a little of water and wash feet your and support yourself under the tree.
5 And I will bring a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that you shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
So let me bring a piece of bread and sustain heart your (after *LS) you will pass on for since you have passed by at servant your and they said thus you will do just as you have said.
6 And Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
And he hurried Abraham the tent towards to Sarah and he said bring quickly three seahs flour fine flour knead [it] and make bread cakes.
7 And Abraham ran to the herd, and brought a calf tender and good, and gave it to a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
And to the herd he ran Abraham and he took a young one of [the] herd tender and good and he gave [it] to the servant and he hurried to prepare it.
8 And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they ate.
And he brought curd and milk and [the] young one of the herd which he had prepared and he set [it] before them and he [was] standing with them under the tree and they ate.
9 And they said to him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
And they said to him where? [is] Sarah wife your and he said there! in the tent.
10 And he said, I will certainly return to thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
And he said certainly I will return to you about the time living and there! a son [will belong] to Sarah wife your and Sarah [was] listening [the] opening of the tent and it [was] behind him.
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well advanced in years; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
And Abraham and Sarah [were] old [having] come in days it had ceased to be to Sarah a way like women.
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am become old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
And she laughed Sarah in inner being her saying after am worn out I has it be[longed]? to me pleasure and lord my he is old.
13 And the LORD said to Abraham, Why did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I certainly bear a child, who am old?
And he said Yahweh to Abraham why? this did she laugh Sarah saying ¿ also really will I bear a child and I I am old.
14 Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return to thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
¿ Is it [too] difficult for Yahweh anything to the appointed time I will return to you about the time living and [will belong] to Sarah a son.
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
And she denied Sarah - saying not I laughed for - she was afraid and he said - In-deed you laughed.
16 And the men rose up from there, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
And they arose from there the men and they looked down on [the] face of Sodom and Abraham [was] walking with them to send off them.
17 And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
And Yahweh he said ¿ [be] concealing [will] I from Abraham [that] which I [am] about to do.
18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
And Abraham certainly he will become a nation great and mighty and they will be blessed by him all [the] nations of the earth.
19 For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
For I have known him so that that he may command children his and household his after him and they will keep [the] way of Yahweh by doing righteousness and justice so that will bring Yahweh on Abraham [that] which he has spoken on him.
20 And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
And he said Yahweh [the] outcry of Sodom and Gomorrah for it is great and sin their that it is heavy exceedingly.
21 I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come to me; and if not, I will know.
I will go down please so I may see ¿ according to outcry its that has come to me have they done - completion and if not I will know.
22 And the men turned their faces from there, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
And they turned away from there the men and they went Sodom towards (and Abraham *LS) still [was] he standing before (Yahweh. *LS)
23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
And he drew near Abraham and he said ¿ also will you sweep away [the] righteous with [the] wicked.
24 Suppose there are fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are in it?
Perhaps there [are] fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city ¿ also will you sweep [it] away and not will you forgive? the place for [the] sake of fifty the righteous [people] who [are] in midst its.
25 That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
Far be it to you from doing - according to the manner this to put to death [the] righteous with [the] wicked and it will be as the righteous [person] as the wicked [person] far be it to you ¿ [the] judge of all the earth not will he do justice.
26 And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
And he said Yahweh if I will find in Sodom fifty righteous [people] in [the] midst of the city and I will forgive all the place for sake of them.
27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I who am dust and ashes, have taken upon me to speak to the Lord.
And he answered Abraham and he said here! please I have undertaken to speak to [the] Lord and I [am] dust and ash[es].
28 Suppose there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
Perhaps they will lack! fifty the righteous [people] five ¿ will you destroy for five all the city and he said not I will destroy [it] if I will find there forty and five.
29 And he spoke to him yet again, and said, Suppose there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty’s sake.
And he repeated again to speak to him and he said perhaps they will be found! there forty and he said not I will do [it] for sake of the forty.
30 And he said, O let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Suppose there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
And he said may not please it burn to [the] Lord and let me speak perhaps they will be found! there thirty and he said not I will do [it] if I will find there thirty.
31 And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak to the Lord: Suppose there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty’s sake.
And he said here! please I have undertaken to speak to [the] Lord perhaps they will be found! there twenty and he said not I will destroy [it] for sake of the twenty.
32 And he said, O let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Suppose ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.
And he said may not please it burn to [the] Lord and let me speak only this time perhaps they will be found! there ten and he said not I will destroy [it] for sake of the ten.
33 And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had finished speaking with Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.
And he went Yahweh just as he had finished to speak to Abraham and Abraham he returned to place his.
