¹ And at nightfall the two angels came to Sodom; and Lot was seated at the way into the town: and when he saw them he got up and came before them, falling down on his face to the earth.

²² And the men, turning from that place, went on to Sodom: but Abraham was still waiting before the Lord.

¹ Now the Lord came to him by the holy tree of Mamre, when he was seated in the doorway of his tent in the middle of the day;

² And lifting up his eyes, he saw three men before him; and seeing them, he went quickly to them from the door of the tent, and went down on his face to the earth;

³ And said, My Lord, if now I have grace in your eyes, do not go away from your servant:

⁴ Let me get water for washing your feet, and take your rest under the tree:

⁵ And let me get a bit of bread to keep up your strength, and after that you may go on your way: for this is why you have come to your servant. And they said, Let it be so.

³² The traveller did not take his night's rest in the street, and my doors were open to anyone on a journey;

² Take care to keep open house: because in this way some have had angels as their guests, without being conscious of it.
