"Abraham approached and said,“Will you really sweep away the godly along with the wicked?"
— Genesis 18:23, NET Bible
“And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?”
“And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou consume the righteous with the wicked? ”
“Abraham drew near, and said, "Will you consume the righteous with the wicked?”
“And drawing nigh, he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?”
“And Abraham came near, and said, Will you let destruction come on the upright with the sinners?”
“And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?”
So the LORD said,“The outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is so great and their sin so blatant
that I must go down and see if they are as wicked as the outcry suggests. If not, I want to know.”
The two men turned and headed toward Sodom, but Abraham was still standing before the LORD.
Abraham approached and said,“Will you really sweep away the godly along with the wicked?
What if there are fifty godly people in the city? Will you really wipe it out and not spare the place for the sake of the fifty godly people who are in it?
Far be it from you to do such a thing– to kill the godly with the wicked, treating the godly and the wicked alike! Far be it from you! Will not the judge of the whole earth do what is right?”
So the LORD replied,“If I find in the city of Sodom fifty godly people, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”
