Genesis 18:5-7
Lexham English Bible
5 And let me bring a piece of bread, then[a] refresh yourselves.[b] Afterward you can pass on, once[c] you have passed by with your servant.” Then they said, “Do so as you have said.” 6 Then[d] Abraham hastened into the tent to Sarah, and he said, “Quickly—make three seahs of fine flour for kneading and make bread cakes!” 7 And Abraham ran to the cattle and took a calf,[e] tender and good, and gave it to the servant, and he made haste to prepare it.
