Genesis 19:17-23
17And it came to pass, when they had broughtH3318 them forthH3318 abroad, that he saidH559, EscapeH4422 for thy lifeH5315; lookH5027 not behind thee, neither stay thou in all the Plain; escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lestH6435 thou beH1961 consumed. 18And LotH3876 saidH559 unto them, Oh, not so, my lordH136: 19behold now, thy servantH5650 hath foundH4672 favorH2580 in thy sight, and thou hast magnifiedH1431 thy lovingkindness, which thou hast showed unto me in saving my lifeH5315; and I cannot escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lestH6435 evilH7451 overtake me, and I dieH4191: 20behold now, this cityH5892 is near to fleeH5127 unto, and it is a little one. Oh let me escapeH4422 thither (is it not a little one?), and my soulH5315 shall liveH2421. 21And he saidH559 unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerningH413 this thingH1697 alsoH1571, that I will not overthrowH2015 the cityH5892 of which thou hast spokenH1696. 22HasteH4116 thee, escapeH4422 thither; for I cannot do anythingH1697 till thou be comeH935 thither. ThereforeH3651 the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 ZoarH6820.
23The sunH8121 was risen upon the earthH776 when LotH3876 cameH935 unto ZoarH6820.
