Genesis 19:18-23

18And LotH3876 saidH559 to them, O, not so, my LordH113: 19Behold now, thy servantH5650 hath foundH4672 graceH2580 in thy sightH5869, and thou hast magnifiedH1431 thy mercyH2617, which thou hast shownH6213 to meH5978 in savingH2421 my lifeH5315; and I cannotH3201 escapeH4422 to the mountainH2022, lest some evilH7451 should takeH1692 me, and I dieH4191: 20Behold now, this cityH5892 is nearH7138 to fleeH5127 to, and itH1931 is a small oneH4705: O, let me escapeH4422 there, (is it not a small oneH4705?) and my soulH5315 shall liveH2421. 21And he saidH559 to him, SeeH2009, I have acceptedH5375 theeH6440 concerning this thingH1697 also, that I will not overthrowH2015 this cityH5892, for whichH834 thou hast spokenH1696.1 22HasteH4116 thee, escapeH4422 there; for I cannotH3201 doH6213 any thingH1697 till thou hast comeH935 there. Therefore the nameH8034 of the cityH5892 was calledH7121 ZoarH6820.2 23The sunH8121 had risenH3318 upon the earthH776 when LotH3876 enteredH935 into ZoarH6820.3
