Note 1 topic: writing-quotations
וַיֹּ֣אמֶר יְהוָ֔ה
and=he/it_said YHWH
Make sure that the various quote margins in this long conversation (verses 23-32) are clear and natural in your translation. Alternate translation: “Then Yahweh answered him”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / nominaladj
בִסְדֹ֛ם חֲמִשִּׁ֥ים צַדִּיקִ֖ם בְּת֣וֹךְ הָעִ֑יר
in/on/at/with,Sodom fifty righteous in_the=middle the=city
Alternate translation: “50 godly people living in the city of Sodom,”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
וְנָשָׂ֥אתִי לְכָל הַמָּק֖וֹם
and,spare to/from=all/each/any/every the,place
Make sure it is clear in your translation that Yahweh is referring here to the city of Sodom as well as the people who live there, not just the city. Alternate translation: “then I will spare the entire city and everyone who lives there” or “then I will not destroy the city or anyone in it”
בַּעֲבוּרָֽם
in/on/at/with,sake,their
Alternate translation: “for the sake of those righteous people.” or “in order to save those good people.”
18:16-33 God took Abraham into his confidence as his prophet (18:16-21; see 20:7); Abraham, in turn, interceded for Sodom (18:23-32; see Heb 7:23-26). God is able to do whatever he chooses to do; this passage affirms that it will be just and right.
