30. Then Abraham said, “Lord, please don’t be angry with me, but let me ask you this. If only thirty good people are in the city, will you destroy it?” The Lord said, “If I find thirty good people there, I will not destroy the city.”
31. Then Abraham said, “Lord, may I bother you again and ask, what if there are twenty good people?” The Lord answered, “If I find twenty good people, I will not destroy the city.”
32. Then Abraham said, “Lord, please don’t be angry with me, but let me bother you this one last time. If you find ten good people there, what will you do?” The Lord said, “If I find ten good people in the city, I will not destroy it.”
33. The Lord finished speaking to Abraham and left. Then Abraham went back home.
