Genesis 19:2-15

2and saidH559H2009H4994, “My lordsH113, pleaseH4994 turn asideH5493 intoH413 the houseH1004 of your servantH5650; washH7364 your feetH7272 and spend the nightH3885. Then you can rise earlyH7925 and goH1980 on your wayH1870.”

“NoH3808H3588,” they answeredH559, “we will spend the nightH3885 in the squareH7339.”

3But Lot insistedH6484 so stronglyH3966 that they followedH5493 himH413 intoH935H413 his houseH1004. He preparedH6213 a feastH4960 for them and bakedH644 unleavened breadH4682, and they ateH398.

4BeforeH2962 they had gone to bedH7901, allH3605H5971 the menH582 of the cityH5892H582 of SodomH5467, both youngH5288 andH5704 oldH2205H7097, surroundedH5437H5921 the houseH1004. 5They called outH7121 toH413 LotH3876, sayingH559, “WhereH346 are the menH582 whoH834 cameH935 to you tonightH413H3915? Send them outH3318 to usH413 so we can have relationsH3045 with themH853!”

6LotH3876 wentH3318 outsideH6607 to meet themH413, shuttingH5462 the doorH1817 behind himH310. 7“PleaseH4994, my brothersH251,” he pleadedH559, “don’tH408 do such a wicked thingH7489! 8LookH2009H4994, I have twoH8147 daughtersH1323 whoH834 have neverH3808 slept withH3045 a manH376. Let me bringH3318H4994 themH853 to youH413, and you can doH6213 to them as you pleaseH2896H5869. ButH7535 do notH408 doH6213 anythingH1697 to theseH411 menH582, forH3588H5921H3651 they have comeH935 under the protectionH6738 of my roofH6982.”

9“Get out of the wayH5066H1973!” they repliedH559. And they declaredH559, “This oneH259 came hereH935 as a foreignerH1481, and he is already acting like a judgeH8199! NowH6258 we will treat you worseH7489 than them.” And they pressedH6484H376 in on LotH3876H3966 and moved inH5066 to break downH7665 the doorH1817.

10But the menH582 inside reached outH7971H3027, pulledH935 LotH3876 into the houseH1004 with themH413, and shutH5462 the doorH1817. 11AndH853 they struckH5221 the menH582 at the entranceH6607H1004, youngH6996 andH5704 oldH1419, with blindnessH5575, so that they wearied themselvesH3811 trying to findH4672 the doorH6607.

12Then the two menH582 saidH559 toH413 LotH3876, “DoH4310 you have anyone elseH5750 hereH6311—a son-in-lawH2860, your sonsH1121 or daughtersH1323, or anyoneH3605 else in the cityH5892 who belongsH834 to you? Get them outH3318 ofH4480 hereH4725, 13becauseH3588 weH587 are about to destroyH7843 thisH2088 placeH4725. ForH3588 the outcryH6818 toH854H6440 the LORDH3068 against its people is so greatH1431 thatH3068 He has sent usH7971 to destroy itH7843.”

14So LotH3876 went outH3318 and spokeH1696 toH413 the sons-in-lawH2860 who were pledged in marriage toH3947 his daughtersH1323. “Get upH6965,” he saidH559. “Get outH3318 ofH4480 thisH2088 placeH4725, forH3588 the LORDH3068 is about to destroyH7843 the cityH5892!” But his sons-in-lawH2860 thoughtH5869 he wasH1961 jokingH6711.

15AtH3644 daybreakH7837H5927 the angelsH4397 hurriedH213 Lot alongH3876, sayingH559, “Get upH6965! TakeH3947 your wifeH802 and your twoH8147 daughtersH1323 who are hereH4672, orH6435 you will be swept awayH5595 in the punishmentH5771 of the cityH5892.”
