Genesis 18:26-28

New American Standard Bible

²⁶ So the Lord said, “^(A)If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will ^[a]spare the entire place on their account.” ²⁷ And Abraham replied, “Now behold, I have ^[b]ventured to speak to the Lord, although I am only ^(B)dust and ashes. ²⁸ Suppose the fifty righteous are lacking five, will You destroy the entire city because of five?” And He said, “I will not destroy it if I find forty-five there.”
