30 Then Abraham said, |May the Lord not be angry so that I may speak! What if thirty are found there?| He replied, |I will not do it if I find thirty there.|

31 Abraham said, |Since I have undertaken to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty are found there?| He replied, |I will not destroy it for the sake of the twenty.|

32 Finally Abraham said, |May the Lord not be angry so that I may speak just once more. What if ten are found there?| He replied, |I will not destroy it for the sake of the ten.|
