17. And the LORD said,
18. Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19. For I know him, that he will command his children and his household after him, and they shall keep the way of the LORD, to do righteousness and justice; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he has spoken of him.
20. And the LORD said,
21. I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry, which has come unto me; and if not, I will know.
22. And the men turned their faces from there, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
