Then the Lord appeared to him by the terebinth trees of Mamre, as he was sitting in the tent door in the heat of the day.
2
So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing by him; and when he saw them, he ran from the tent door to meet them, and bowed himself to the ground,
3
and said, "My Lord, if I have now found favor in Your sight, do not pass on by Your servant.
4
Please let a little water be brought, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the tree.
5
And I will bring a morsel of bread, that you may refresh your hearts. After that you may pass by, inasmuch as you have come to your servant." They said, "Do as you have said."
6
So Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah and said, "Quickly, make ready three measures of fine meal; knead it and make cakes."
7
And Abraham ran to the herd, took a tender and good calf, gave it to a young man, and he hastened to prepare it.
