Holman Christian Standard Bible
26 The Lord said, “If I find 50 righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.”(A)
27 Then Abraham answered, “Since I have ventured to speak to the Lord—even though I am dust and ashes— 28 suppose the 50 righteous lack five. Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five?”
He replied, “I will not destroy it if I find 45 there.”

New International Version
26 The Lord said, “If I find fifty righteous people in the city of Sodom, I will spare the whole place for their sake.(A)”
27 Then Abraham spoke up again: “Now that I have been so bold as to speak to the Lord, though I am nothing but dust and ashes,(B) 28 what if the number of the righteous is five less than fifty? Will you destroy the whole city for lack of five people?”
“If I find forty-five there,” he said, “I will not destroy it.”
