第18章
18:1 耶和华在幔利橡树那里,向亚伯拉罕显现出来。那时正热,亚伯拉罕坐在帐棚门口,
And the LORD appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
18:2 举目观看,见有三个人在对面站着。他一见,就从帐棚门口跑去迎接他们,俯伏在地,
And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground,
18:3 说,我主,我若在你眼前蒙恩,求你不要离开仆人往前去。
And said, My LORD, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
18:4 容我拿点水来,你们洗洗脚,在树下歇息歇息。
Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
18:5 我再拿一点饼来,你们可以加添心力,然后往前去。你们既到仆人这里来,理当如此。他们说,就照你说的行吧。
And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said.
18:6 亚伯拉罕急忙进帐棚见撒拉,说,你速速拿三细亚细面调和作饼。
And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the hearth.
18:7 亚伯拉罕又跑到牛群里,牵了一只又嫩又好的牛犊来,交给仆人,仆人急忙预备好了。
And Abraham ran unto the herd, and fetcht a calf tender and good, and gave it unto a young man; and he hasted to dress it.
18:8 亚伯拉罕又取了奶油和奶,并预备好的牛犊来,摆在他们面前,自己在树下站在旁边,他们就吃了。
And he took butter, and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them; and he stood by them under the tree, and they did eat.
18:9 他们问亚伯拉罕说,你妻子撒拉在哪里。他说,在帐棚里。
And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
18:10 三人中有一位说,到明年这时候,我必要回到你这里。你的妻子撒拉必生一个儿子。撒拉在那人后边的帐棚门口也听见了这话。
And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.
18:11 亚伯拉罕和撒拉年纪老迈,撒拉的月经已断绝了。
Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
18:12 撒拉心里暗笑,说,我既已衰败,我主也老迈,岂能有这喜事呢。
Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
18:13 耶和华对亚伯拉罕说,撒拉为什么暗笑,说,我既已年老,果真能生养吗。
And the LORD said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
18:14 耶和华岂有难成的事吗。到了日期,明年这时候,我必回到你这里,撒拉必生一个儿子。
Is any thing too hard for the LORD? At the time appointed I will return unto thee, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.
18:15 撒拉就害怕,不承认,说,我没有笑。那位说,不然,你实在笑了。
Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
18:16 三人就从那里起行,向所多玛观看,亚伯拉罕也与他们同行,要送他们一程。
And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
18:17 耶和华说,我所要作的事,岂可瞒着亚伯拉罕呢。
And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
18:18 亚伯拉罕必要成为强大的国,地上的万国都必因他得福。
Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
18:19 我眷顾他,为要叫他吩咐他的众子和他的眷属,遵守我的道,秉公行义,使我所应许亚伯拉罕的话都成就了。
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 justice and judgment; that the LORD may bring upon Abraham that which he hath spoken of him.
18:20 耶和华说,所多玛和蛾摩拉的罪恶甚重,声闻于我。
And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
18:21 我现在要下去,察看他们所行的,果然尽像那达到我耳中的声音一样吗。若是不然,我也必知道。
I will go down now, and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and if not, I will know.
18:22 二人转身离开那里,向所多玛去。但亚伯拉罕仍旧站在耶和华面前。
And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
18:23 亚伯拉罕近前来,说,无论善恶,你都要剿灭吗。
And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
18:24 假若那城里有五十个义人,你还剿灭那地方吗。不为城里这五十个义人饶恕其中的人吗。
Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
18:25 将义人与恶人同杀,将义人与恶人一样看待,这断不是你所行的。审判全地的主,岂不行公义吗。
That be far from thee to do after this manner, to slay the righteous with the wicked: and that the righteous should be as the wicked, that be far from thee: Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?
18:26 耶和华说,我若在所多玛城里见有五十个义人,我就为他们的缘故饶恕那地方的众人。
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
18:27 亚伯拉罕说,我虽然是灰尘,还敢对主说话。
And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the LORD, which am but dust and ashes:
18:28 假若这五十个义人短了五个,你就因为短了五个毁灭全城吗。他说,我在那里若见有四十五个,也不毁灭那城。
Peradventure there shall lack five of the fifty righteous: wilt thou destroy all the city for lack of five? And he said, If I find there forty and five, I will not destroy it.
18:29 亚伯拉罕又对他说,假若在那里见有四十个怎吗样呢。他说,为这四十个的缘故,我也不作这事。
And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty's sake.
18:30 亚伯拉罕说,求主不要动怒,容我说。假若在那里见有三十个怎吗样呢。他说,我在那里若见有三十个,我也不作这事。
And he said unto him, Oh let not the LORD be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
18:31 亚伯拉罕说,我还敢对主说话,假若在那里见有二十个怎吗样呢。他说,为这二十个的缘故,我也不毁灭那城。
And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the LORD: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty's sake.
18:32 亚伯拉罕说,求主不要动怒,我再说这一次,假若在那里见有十个呢。他说,为这十个的缘故,我也不毁灭那城。
And he said, Oh let not the LORD be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten's sake.
18:33 耶和华与亚伯拉罕说完了话就走了。亚伯拉罕也回到自己的地方去了。
And the LORD went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
