Битие 18
1940 Bulgarian Bible
18 След това Господ се яви на <Авраама> при Мамвриевите дъбове, когато той седеше при входа на шатрата <си> в горещината на деня.
2 Като подигна очи и погледна, ето, трима мъже стояха срещу него; и като ги видя, затече се от входа на шатрата да ги посрещне, поклони се до земята, и рече:
3 Господарю мой, ако съм придобил Твоето благоволение, моля Ти се, не отминавай слугата Си.
4 Нека донесат малко вода, та си умийте нозете и си починете под дървото.
5 И аз ще донеса малко хляб, да подкрепите сърцата си, и после ще си заминете; понеже затова дойдохте при слугата си. А те рекоха: Стори, както си казал.
6 Тогава Авраам влезе бързо в шатрата при Сара и рече: Приготви по-скоро три мери чисто брашно, замеси и направи пити.
7 А Авраам се затече при чердата, взе едно младо, добро теле и го даде на слугата, който побърза да го сготви.
8 После взе масло, мляко и сготвеното теле, та сложи пред тях; и той стоеше при тях под дървото, докато те ядяха.
9 Тогава му рекоха: Где е жена ти Сара? А той рече: Ето, в шатрата е.
10 И рече <Господ>: До година по това време Аз непременно ще се върна при тебе и, ето, жена ти Сара ще има син. А Сара слушаше от входа на шатрата, която беше зад него.
11 А Авраам и Сара бяха стари, в напреднала възраст; на Сара беше престанало обикновеното на жените.
12 И тъй Сара се засмя в себе си, като думаше: Като съм остаряла ще има ли за мене удоволствие, като и господаря ми е стар?
13 А Господ рече на Авраама: Защо се засмя Сара и каза: Като съм остаряла, дали наистина ще родя?
14 Има ли нещо невъзможно за Господа? На определеното време ще се върна при тебе, до година по това време и Сара ще има син.
15 Тогава Сара, понеже се уплаши, се отрече, казвайки: Не съм се смяла. А той каза: Не <е тъй>; ти се засмя.
16 Като станаха от там, мъжете се обърнаха към Содом; и Авраам отиде с тях, за да ги изпрати.
17 И Господ рече: Да скрия ли от Авраама това, което ще сторя,
18 тъй като Авраам непременно ще стане велик и силен народ и чрез него ще се благословят всичките народи на земята?
19 Защото съм го избрал {Еврейски: познал. Вж. Амос 3:2}, за да заповяда на чадата си и на дома си след себе си да пазят Господния път, като вършат правда и правосъдие, за да направи Господ да стане с Авраама онова, което е говорил за него.
20 И рече Господ: Понеже викът на Содома и Гомора е силен и, понеже грехът им е твърде тежък,
21 ще сляза сега и ще видя дали са сторили напълно според вика, който стигна до Мене; и ако не, ще узная.
22 Тогава мъжете, като се обърнаха от там, отидоха към Содом. Но Авраам още стоеше пред Господа.
23 И Авраам се приближи и рече: Ще погубиш ли праведния с нечестивия?
24 Може да има петдесет праведника в града; ще погубиш ли мястото, не ще ли го пощадиш, заради петдесетте праведника, които са в него?
25 Далеч от Тебе да сториш такова нещо, да убиеш праведния с нечестивия, така щото праведният да бъде като нечестивия! Далеч от Тебе това! Съдията на цялата земя няма ли да върши правда?
26 И Господ каза: Ако намеря в Содом петдесет праведника, вътре в града, ще пощадя цялото място, заради тях.
27 А в отговор Авраам рече: Ето сега, аз, който съм прах и пепел, се осмелих да говоря на Господа;
28 може би на петдесетте праведника да не достигат пет; ще погубиш ли целия град, поради липсата на пет души? Той каза: Няма да го погубя ако намеря там четиридесет и пет.
29 А <Авраам> пак Му говори, казвайки: Може да се намерят там четиридесет. Той каза: Заради четиридесетте няма да сторя това.
30 А <Авраам> рече: Да се не разгневи Господ и ще кажа: Може да се намерят там тридесет. Той каза: Няма да сторя това, ако намеря там тридесет.
31 А <Авраам> рече: Ето сега, осмелих се да говоря на Господа; може да се намерят там двадесет. Той каза: Заради двадесетте няма да погубя <града>.
32 Тогава <Авраам> рече: Да се не разгневи Господ и аз ще продумам пак, само тоя път. Може да се намерят там десет. И той каза: Заради десетте няма да го погубя.
33 А като престана да говори с Авраама Господ си отиде; а Авраам се върна на мястото си.

The Three Visitors
18 The Lord appeared to Abraham(A) near the great trees of Mamre(B) while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent(C) in the heat of the day. 2 Abraham looked up(D) and saw three men(E) standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his tent to meet them and bowed low to the ground.(F)
3 He said, “If I have found favor in your eyes,(G) my lord,[a] do not pass your servant(H) by. 4 Let a little water be brought, and then you may all wash your feet(I) and rest under this tree. 5 Let me get you something to eat,(J) so you can be refreshed and then go on your way—now that you have come to your servant.”
“Very well,” they answered, “do as you say.”
6 So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. “Quick,” he said, “get three seahs[b] of the finest flour and knead it and bake some bread.”(K)
7 Then he ran to the herd and selected a choice, tender calf(L) and gave it to a servant, who hurried to prepare it. 8 He then brought some curds(M) and milk(N) and the calf that had been prepared, and set these before them.(O) While they ate, he stood near them under a tree.
9 “Where is your wife Sarah?”(P) they asked him.
“There, in the tent,(Q)” he said.
10 Then one of them said, “I will surely return to you about this time next year,(R) and Sarah your wife will have a son.”(S)
Now Sarah was listening at the entrance to the tent, which was behind him. 11 Abraham and Sarah were already very old,(T) and Sarah was past the age of childbearing.(U) 12 So Sarah laughed(V) to herself as she thought, “After I am worn out and my lord(W) is old, will I now have this pleasure?”
13 Then the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh and say, ‘Will I really have a child, now that I am old?’(X) 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord?(Y) I will return to you at the appointed time next year,(Z) and Sarah will have a son.”(AA)
15 Sarah was afraid, so she lied and said, “I did not laugh.”
But he said, “Yes, you did laugh.”
Abraham Pleads for Sodom
16 When the men(AB) got up to leave, they looked down toward Sodom, and Abraham walked along with them to see them on their way. 17 Then the Lord said, “Shall I hide from Abraham(AC) what I am about to do?(AD) 18 Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation,(AE) and all nations on earth will be blessed through him.[c] 19 For I have chosen him(AF), so that he will direct his children(AG) and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord(AH) by doing what is right and just,(AI) so that the Lord will bring about for Abraham what he has promised him.”(AJ)
20 Then the Lord said, “The outcry against Sodom(AK) and Gomorrah is so great(AL) and their sin so grievous(AM) 21 that I will go down(AN) and see if what they have done is as bad as the outcry that has reached me. If not, I will know.”
22 The men(AO) turned away and went toward Sodom,(AP) but Abraham remained standing before the Lord.[d](AQ) 23 Then Abraham approached him and said: “Will you sweep away the righteous with the wicked?(AR) 24 What if there are fifty righteous people in the city? Will you really sweep it away and not spare[e] the place for the sake of the fifty righteous people in it?(AS) 25 Far be it from you to do such a thing(AT)—to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous(AU) and the wicked alike.(AV) Far be it from you! Will not the Judge(AW) of all the earth do right?”(AX)
26 The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.(AY)”
27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes,(AZ) 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?”
“If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”
29 Once again he spoke to him, “What if only forty are found there?”
He said, “For the sake of forty, I will not do it.”
30 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry,(BA) but let me speak. What if only thirty can be found there?”
He answered, “I will not do it if I find thirty there.”
31 Abraham said, “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, what if only twenty can be found there?”
He said, “For the sake of twenty, I will not destroy it.”
32 Then he said, “May the Lord not be angry, but let me speak just once more.(BB) What if only ten can be found there?”
He answered, “For the sake of ten,(BC) I will not destroy it.”
33 When the Lord had finished speaking(BD) with Abraham, he left,(BE) and Abraham returned home.(BF)

King James Version
18 And the Lord appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;
2 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,
3 And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy servant:
4 Let a little water, I pray you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree:
5 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.
6 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.
7 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.
8 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.
9 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.
10 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.
11 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?
13 And the Lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?
14 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.
15 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.
16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do;
18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in him?
19 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.
20 And the Lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
21 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.
22 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the Lord.
23 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the righteous with the wicked?
24 Peradventure there be fifty righteous within the city: wilt thou also destroy and not spare the place for the fifty righteous that are therein?
25 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?
26 And the Lord said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
27 And Abraham answered and said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord, which am but dust and ashes:
28 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.
29 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.
30 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.
31 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.
32 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.
33 And the Lord went his way, as soon as he had left communing with Abraham: and Abraham returned unto his place.
