Genesis 18:16-19

The Message

¹⁶ When the men got up to leave, they set off for Sodom. Abraham walked with them to say good-bye.

^17-19 Then God said, “Shall I keep back from Abraham what I’m about to do? Abraham is going to become a large and strong nation; all the nations of the world are going to find themselves blessed through him. Yes, I’ve settled on him as the one to train his children and future family to observe God’s way of life, live kindly and generously and fairly, so that God can complete in Abraham what he promised him.”
