01:018:006 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.

01:018:007 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.

01:018:008 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.

01:018:009 And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife?  And he said,
           Behold, in the tent.

01:018:010 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.

01:018:011 Now Abraham and Sarah were old and well stricken in age; and
           it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women.

01:018:012 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, After I am
           waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

01:018:013 And the lord said unto Abraham, Wherefore did Sarah laugh,
           saying, Shall I of a surety bear a child, which am old?

01:018:014 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.

01:018:015 Then Sarah denied, saying, I laughed not; for she was afraid. 
           And he said, Nay; but thou didst laugh.

01:018:016 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom:  and
           Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.

01:018:017 And the lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which
           I do;

01:018:018 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a great and mighty
           nation, and all the nations of the earth shall be blessed in
           him?

01:018:019 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.

01:018:020 And the lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is
           great, and because their sin is very grievous;

01:018:021 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.

01:018:022 And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward
           Sodom:  but Abraham stood yet before the lord.

01:018:023 And Abraham drew near, and said, Wilt thou also destroy the
           righteous with the wicked?
