19 Porque eu o conheci, sei que mandará a seus filhos e a sua casa depois de si, que guardem o caminho do SENHOR, fazendo justiça e juízo, para que faça vir o SENHOR sobre Abraão o que falou acerca dele.

20 Então o SENHOR lhe disse: Porquanto o clamor de Sodoma e Gomorra se aumenta mais e mais, e o pecado deles se agravou em extremo,

21 Descerei agora, e verei se consumaram sua obra segundo o clamor que veio até mim; e se não, eu o saberei.

22 E apartaram-se dali os homens, e foram até Sodoma: mas Abraão estava ainda diante do SENHOR.

23 E aproximou-se Abraão e disse: Destruirás também ao justo com o ímpio?
