Genesis 18:27-29

International Children’s Bible

²⁷ Then Abraham said, “I am only dust and ashes. Yet I have been brave to speak to the Lord. ²⁸ What if there are only 45 good people in the city? Will you destroy the whole city for the lack of 5 good people?”

The Lord said, “If I find 45 good people there, I will not destroy the city.”

²⁹ Again Abraham said to the Lord, “If you find only 40 good people there, will you destroy the city?”

The Lord said, “If I find 40 good people, I will not destroy the city.”
