Genesis 19:20-23
20LookH2009, thereH2063 is a townH5892 nearbyH7138 whereH8033 I can fleeH5127, and itH1931 is a small placeH4705. PleaseH4994 let me fleeH4422H4994 thereH8033—is itH1931 notH3808 a small placeH4705? Then my lifeH5315 will be savedH2421.”
21“Very wellH2009,” he answeredH559H413, “I will grant this requestH5375H6440H2088H1697 as wellH1571, and will notH1115 demolishH2015 the townH5892 you indicateH1696. 22HurryH4116! RunH4422 there quicklyH8033, forH3588 I cannotH3808H3201 doH6213 anythingH1697 untilH5704 you reachH935 itH8033.” That is whyH5921H3651 the townH5892 was calledH7121H8034 ZoarH6820.1
23And by the time the sunH8121 had risenH3318 overH5921 the landH776, LotH3876 had reachedH935 ZoarH6820.
