Genesis 18:24 in Context — Genesis 18
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?
24 Talvez haja cinquenta justos dentro da cidade: destruirás também e não perdoarás ao lugar por cinquenta justos que estejam dentro dela?
25 Longe de ti o fazer tal, que faças morrer ao justo com o ímpio e que seja o justo tratado como o ímpio; nunca faças tal. O juiz de toda a terra, não há de fazer o que é justo?
26 Então respondeu o SENHOR: Se achar em Sodoma cinquenta justos dentro da cidade, perdoarei a todo este lugar por causa deles.
