Genesis 18:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ for Abraham shall become a great and powerful nation and all of the nations of the earth shall be blessed through him? ¹⁹ I chose him so that he would instruct his sons and his family after him to observe the ways of the Lord and to act with justice and righteousness so that the Lord might fulfill what he has promised to Abraham.”

²⁰ Therefore, the Lord said, “The cry against Sodom and Gomorrah is too great and their sin is very grave.
