Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1And the Lord appeared to him in the vale of Mambre as he was sitting at the door of his tent, in the very heat of the day.
1耶和华在 幔利 橡树那里向 亚伯拉罕 显现出来。那时正热， 亚伯拉罕 坐在帐棚门口，
2And when he had lifted up his eyes, there appeared to him three men standing near him: and as soon as he saw them he ran to meet them from the door of his tent, and adored down to the ground.
2举目观看，见有三个人在对面站着。他一见，就从帐棚门口跑去迎接他们，俯伏在地，
3And he said: Lord, if I have found favour in thy sight, pass not away from thy servant:
3说：「我主，我若在你眼前蒙恩，求你不要离开仆人往前去。
4But I will fetch a little water, and wash ye your feet, and rest ye under the tree.
4容我拿点水来，你们洗洗脚，在树下歇息歇息。
5And I will set a morsel of bread, and strengthen ye your heart, afterwards you shall pass on: for therefore are you come aside to your servant. And they said: Do as thou hast spoken.
5我再拿一点饼来，你们可以加添心力，然后往前去。你们既到仆人这里来，理当如此。」他们说：「就照你说的行吧。」
6Abraham made haste into the tent to Sara, and said to her: Make haste, temper together three measures of flour, and make cakes upon the hearth.
6亚伯拉罕 急忙进帐棚见 撒拉 ，说：「你速速拿三细亚细面调和做饼。」
7And he himself ran to the herd, and took from thence a calf very tender and very good, and gave it to a young man: who made haste and boiled it.
7亚伯拉罕 又跑到牛群里，牵了一只又嫩又好的牛犊来，交给仆人，仆人急忙预备好了。
8He took also butter and milk, and the calf which he had boiled, and set before them: but he stood by them under the tree.
8亚伯拉罕 又取了奶油和奶，并预备好的牛犊来，摆在他们面前，自己在树下站在旁边，他们就吃了。
9And when they had eaten, they said to him: Where is Sara thy wife? He answered: Lo, she is in the tent.
9他们问 亚伯拉罕 说：「你妻子 撒拉 在哪里？」他说：「在帐棚里。」
10And he said to him: I will return and come to thee at this time, life accompanying and Sara thy wife shall have a son. Which when Sara heard, she laughed behind the door of the tent.
10三人中有一位说：「到明年这时候，我必要回到你这里；你的妻子 撒拉 必生一个儿子。」 撒拉 在那人后边的帐棚门口也听见了这话。
11Now they were both old, and far advanced in years, and it had ceased to be with Sara after the manner of women.
11亚伯拉罕 和 撒拉 年纪老迈， 撒拉 的月经已断绝了。
12And she laughed secretly, saying: After I am grown old and my lord is an old man, shall I give myself to pleasure?
12撒拉 心里暗笑，说：「我既已衰败，我主也老迈，岂能有这喜事呢？」
13And the Lord said to Abraham: Why did Sara laugh, saying: Shall I who am an old woman bear a child indeed?
13耶和华对 亚伯拉罕 说：「 撒拉 为什么暗笑，说：『我既已年老，果真能生养吗？』
14Is there any thing hard to God? According to appointment I will return to thee at this same time, life accompanying, and Sara shall have a son.
14耶和华岂有难成的事吗？到了日期，明年这时候，我必回到你这里， 撒拉 必生一个儿子。」
15Sara denied, saying: I did not laugh: for she was afraid. But the Lord said, Nay: but thou didst laugh:
15撒拉 就害怕，不承认，说：「我没有笑。」那位说：「不然，你实在笑了。」
16And when the men rose up from thence, they turned their eyes towards Sodom: and Abraham walked with them, bringing them on the way.
16三人就从那里起行，向 所多玛 观看， 亚伯拉罕 也与他们同行，要送他们一程。
17And the Lord said: Can I hide from Abraham what I am about to do:
17耶和华说：「我所要做的事岂可瞒着 亚伯拉罕 呢？
18Seeing he shall become a great and mighty nation, and in him all the nations of the earth shall be blessed?
18亚伯拉罕 必要成为强大的国；地上的万国都必因他得福。
19For I know that he will command his children, and his household after him to keep the way of the Lord, and do judgment and justice: that for Abraham’s sake the Lord may bring to effect all the things he hath spoken unto him.
19我眷顾他，为要叫他吩咐他的众子和他的眷属遵守我的道，秉公行义，使我所应许 亚伯拉罕 的话都成就了。」
20And the Lord said: The cry of Sodom and Gomorrha is multiplied, and their sin is become exceedingly grievous.
20耶和华说：「 所多玛 和 蛾摩拉 的罪恶甚重，声闻于我。
21I will go down and see whether they have done according to the cry that is come to me: or whether it be not so, that I may know.
21我现在要下去，察看他们所行的，果然尽像那达到我耳中的声音一样吗？若是不然，我也必知道。」
22And they turned themselves from thence, and went their way to Sodom: but Abraham as yet stood before the Lord.
22二人转身离开那里，向 所多玛 去；但 亚伯拉罕 仍旧站在耶和华面前。
23And drawing nigh he said: Wilt thou destroy the just with the wicked?
23亚伯拉罕 近前来，说：「无论善恶，你都要剿灭吗？
24If there be fifty just men in the city, shall they perish withal? and wilt thou not spare that place for the sake of the fifty just, if they be therein?
24假若那城里有五十个义人，你还剿灭那地方吗？不为城里这五十个义人饶恕其中的人吗？
25Far be it from thee to do this thing, and to slay the just with the wicked, and for the just to be in like case as the wicked, this is not beseeming thee: thou who judgest all the earth, wilt not make this judgment.
25将义人与恶人同杀，将义人与恶人一样看待，这断不是你所行的。审判全地的主岂不行公义吗？」
26And the Lord said to him: If I find in Sodom fifty just within the city, I will spare the whole place for their sake.
26耶和华说：「我若在 所多玛 城里见有五十个义人，我就为他们的缘故饶恕那地方的众人。」
27And Abraham answered, and said: Seeing I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes.
27亚伯拉罕 说：「我虽然是灰尘，还敢对主说话。
28What if there be five less than fifty just persons? wilt thou for five and forty destroy the whole city? And he said: I will not destroy it, if I find five and forty.
28假若这五十个义人短了五个，你就因为短了五个毁灭全城吗？」他说：「我在那里若见有四十五个，也不毁灭那城。」
29And again he said to him: But if forty be found there, what wilt thou do? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of forty.
29亚伯拉罕 又对他说：「假若在那里见有四十个怎么样呢？」他说：「为这四十个的缘故，我也不做这事。」
30Lord, saith he, be not angry, I beseech thee, if I speak: What if thirty shall be found there? He answered: I will not do it, if I find thirty there.
30亚伯拉罕 说：「求主不要动怒，容我说，假若在那里见有三十个怎么样呢？」他说：「我在那里若见有三十个，我也不做这事。」
31Seeing, saith he, I have once begun, I will speak to my Lord. What if twenty be found there? He said: I will not destroy it for the sake of twenty.
31亚伯拉罕 说：「我还敢对主说话，假若在那里见有二十个怎么样呢？」他说：「为这二十个的缘故，我也不毁灭那城。」
32I beseech thee, saith he, be not angry, Lord, if I speak yet once more: What if ten should be found there? And he said: I will not destroy it for the sake of ten.
32亚伯拉罕 说：「求主不要动怒，我再说这一次，假若在那里见有十个呢？」他说：「为这十个的缘故，我也不毁灭那城。」
33And the Lord departed, after he had left speaking to Abraham: and Abraham returned to his place.
33耶和华与 亚伯拉罕 说完了话就走了； 亚伯拉罕 也回到自己的地方去了。
