The Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intention of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

Genesis 14:18-24 King James Version
18 And Melchizedek king of Salem brought forth bread and wine: and he was the priest of the most high God. 19 And he blessed him, and said, Blessed be Abram of the most high God, possessor of heaven and earth: 20 And blessed be the most high God, which hath delivered thine enemies into thy hand. And he gave him tithes of all. 21 And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself. 22 And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the Lord, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, 23 That I will not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: 24 Save only that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men which went with me, Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre; let them take their portion.
If we were seeking a Word from the Lord and it was “only”. Which version of the bible will change our opportunities to be blessed in our search. Here we see the King of Peace for the first time listed after many sinful acts and before these precious words, “The Lord will provide”; as it is said to this day, “On the mount of the Lord it shall be provided.” Sometimes discovering what the good Lord intends for us to hear is not to be found in easy answers. Seek Him.
