30 Abraham then asked, |I hope my LORD will not be angry if I speak. What if 30 are found there?| The LORD answered, |I won't do it for the sake of those 30.|

31 |Look,| Abraham said, |I've presumed to speak to my LORD... so what if 20 are found there?| |For the sake of those 20,| the LORD responded, |I won't destroy it.|

32 Finally, Abraham inquired, |I hope my LORD will not be angry if I speak only once more. What if ten are found there?| He replied, |For the sake of those ten I won't destroy it.|

33 As soon as he finished talking to Abraham, the LORD left and Abraham returned to where he had been sitting.
