Genesis 18:23 in Context — Genesis 18
21 Descenderé ahora, y veré si han consumado su obra según el clamor que ha venido hasta mí; y si no, saberlo he.
22 Y apartáronse de allí los varones, y fueron hacia Sodoma: mas Abraham estaba aún delante de Jehová.
23 Y acercóse Abraham y dijo: ¿Destruirás también al justo con el impío?
24 Quizá hay cincuenta justos dentro de la ciudad: ¿destruirás también y no perdonarás al lugar por cincuenta justos que estén dentro de él?
25 Lejos de ti el hacer tal, que hagas morir al justo con el impío, y que sea el justo [tratado] como el impío; nunca tal hagas. El juez de toda la tierra, ¿no ha de hacer lo que es justo?
