1. And the Lord appeared unto him among the terebinth trees of Mamre; and he was sitting in the door of his tent in the heat of the day;
2. and he lifted up his eyes and looked, and, behold, three men stood by him; and when he saw them, he ran to meet them from the tent door and bowed himself toward the ground
3. and said, My Lord, if now I have found grace in thy sight, pass not away, I pray thee, from thy slave.
4. Let a little water, I pray you, be brought and wash your feet and rest yourselves under a tree;
5. and I will bring a morsel of bread and comfort your hearts; after that ye shall pass on because for this ye are come to your slave. And they said, So do as thou hast said.
6. And Abraham hastened into the tent unto Sarah and said, Make ready quickly three measures of fine meal, knead it, and make bread baked under the ashes.
7. And Abraham ran unto the herd and brought a calf tender and good and gave it unto a young man; and he hastened to dress it.
