Genesis 18:27-30
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 18
27
And Abraham replied, 'Now behold, I have ventured to speak to the Lord, although I am
only
dust and ashes.
28
Suppose the fifty righteous are lacking five, will You destroy the entire city because of five?' And He said, 'I will not destroy
it
if I find forty-five there.'
29
And he spoke to Him yet again and said, 'Suppose forty are found there?' And He said, 'I will not do
it
on account of the forty.'
30
Then he said, 'Oh may the Lord not be angry, and I shall speak; suppose thirty are found there?' And He said, 'I will not do
it
if I find thirty there.'
King James Version
Chapter 18
27
And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
28
Peradventure 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.
29
And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty's sake.
30
And he said unto him, 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.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 18
27
Then Abraham answered, "Since I have ventured to speak to my lord—even though I am dust and ashes—
28
suppose the fifty righteous lack five. Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?" He replied, "I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there."
29
Then he spoke to him again, "Suppose forty are found there?" He answered, "I will not do it on account of forty."
30
Then he said, "Let my lord not be angry, and I will speak further. Suppose thirty are found there?" He answered, "I will not do it if I find thirty there."
New Living Translation
Chapter 18
27
Then Abraham spoke again. 'Since I have begun, let me speak further to my Lord, even though I am but dust and ashes.
28
Suppose there are only forty-five righteous people rather than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?' And the
Lord
said, 'I will not destroy it if I find forty-five righteous people there.'
29
Then Abraham pressed his request further. 'Suppose there are only forty?' And the
Lord
replied, 'I will not destroy it for the sake of the forty.'
30
Please don’t be angry, my Lord,' Abraham pleaded. 'Let me speak — suppose only thirty righteous people are found?' And the
Lord
replied, 'I will not destroy it if I find thirty.'
English Standard Version
Chapter 18
27
Abraham answered and said, "Behold, I have undertaken to speak to the Lord, I who am but dust and ashes.
28
Suppose five of the fifty righteous are lacking. Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?" And he said, "I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there."
29
Again he spoke to him and said, "Suppose forty are found there." He answered, "For the sake of forty I will not do it."
30
Then he said, "Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak. Suppose thirty are found there." He answered, "I will not do it, if I find thirty there."
New International Version
Chapter 18
27
Then Abraham spoke up again: "Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes,
28
what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?" "If I find forty-five there," he said, "I will not destroy it."
29
Once again he spoke to him, "What if only forty are found there?" He said, "For the sake of forty, I will not do it."
30
Then he said, "May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?" He answered, "I will not do it if I find thirty there."
New King James Version
Chapter 18
27
Then Abraham answered and said, “Indeed now, I who
am
but dust and ashes have taken it upon myself to speak to the Lord:
28
Suppose there were five less than the fifty righteous; would You destroy all of the city for
lack of
five?” So He said, “If I find there forty-five, I will not destroy
it.
”
29
And he spoke to Him yet again and said, “Suppose there should be forty found there?” So He said, “I will not do
it
for the sake of forty.”
30
Then he said, “Let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Suppose thirty should be found there?” So He said, “I will not do
it
if I find thirty there.”
