Genesis 18:19

19 I have chosen him so that he will direct his children and his family after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just. In this way I, the LORD, will do what I have promised Abraham."

Genesis 18:19 In-Context

17 The LORD said, "I shouldn't hide what I am going to do from Abraham.
18 After all, Abraham is going to become a great and mighty nation and through him all the nations of the earth will be blessed.
19 I have chosen him so that he will direct his children and his family after him to keep the way of the LORD by doing what is right and just. In this way I, the LORD, will do what I have promised Abraham."
20 The LORD also said, "Sodom and Gomorrah have many complaints against them, and their sin is very serious.
21 I must go down and see whether these complaints are true. If not, I will know it."
