16 And the men rose from there and looked on the face of Sodom, and Abraham walked with them to send them off. 17 And YHWH said, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am doing? 18 And Abraham will surely become a nation great and mighty, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed. 19 For I have known him in order that he may command his children and his house after him that they keep the way of YHWH by doing what is right and just, that YHWH may bring to Abraham what He has spoken to him.” 20 And YHWH said, “Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great and because their sin is very grievous, 21 I will go down now and see whether the outcry against it that has come to Me they have done completely—and if not, I will know.” 22 And the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, and Abraham still stood before YHWH.
