7 And ſaid, I pray you, brethren, do not ſo wickedly.
8 [1] Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do ye to them as is good in your eyes: only unto theſe men do nothing; [2] for therefore came they under the ſhadow of my roof.
9 And they ſaid, Stand back. And they ſaid again, This one fellow [3] came in to ſojourn, [4] and he will needs be a judge: now will we deal worſe with thee, than with them. And they preſſed ſore upon the man, even Lot, and came near to break the door.
10 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the houſe to them, and ſhut to the door.
11 And they ſmote the men [5] that were at the door of the houſe with blindneſs, both ſmall and great: ſo that they wearied themſelves to find the door.
12 ¶ And the men ſaid unto Lot, Haſt thou here any beſides? ſon in law, and thy ſons, and thy daughters, and whatſoever thou haſt in the city, [6] bring them out of this place:
13 For we will deſtroy this place, becauſe the [7] cry of them is waxen great before the face of the LORD; and [8] the LORD hath ſent us to deſtroy it.
14 And Lot went out, and ſpake unto his ſons in law, [9] which married his daughters, and ſaid, [10] Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will deſtroy this city. [11] But he ſeemed as one that mocked unto his ſons in law.
15 And when the morning aroſe, then the angels haſtened Lot, ſaying, [12] Ariſe, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, †† Heb. are found. which are here; leſt thou be conſumed in the ‖‖ Or, puniſhment. iniquity of the city.
16 And [13] while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; [14] the LORD being merciful unto him: [15] and they brought him forth, and ſet him without the city.
17 And it came to paſs, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he ſaid, [16] Eſcape for thy life; [17] look not behind thee, neither ſtay thou in all the plain; eſcape to the mountain, leſt thou be conſumed.
18 And Lot ſaid unto them, [18] Oh, not ſo, my Lord:
19 Behold now, thy ſervant hath found grace in thy ſight, and thou haſt magnified thy mercy, which thou haſt ſhewed unto me in ſaving my life; and I cannot eſcape to the mountain, leſt ſome evil take me, and I die:
20 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me eſcape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my ſoul ſhall live.
21 And he ſaid unto him, See, [19] I have accepted †† Heb. thy face. thee concerning this thing alſo, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou haſt ſpoken.
22 Haſte thee, eſcape thither; for [20] I cannot do any thing till thou be come thither. Therefore [21] the name of the city was called ‖‖ That is, little. Zoar.
23 The ſun was †† Heb. gone forth. riſen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
24 ¶ Then [22] the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimſtone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
25 And he overthrew thoſe cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and [23] that which grew upon the ground.
26 ¶ But his wife looked back from behind him, and ſhe became [24] a pillar of ſalt.
27 ¶ And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where [25] he ſtood before the LORD:
28 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, [26] the ſmoke of the country went up as the ſmoke of a furnace.
29 And it came to paſs, when God deſtroyed the cities of the plain, that God [27] remembered Abraham, and ſent Lot out of the midſt of the overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
30 ¶ And Lot went up out of Zoar, and [28] dwelt in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters.
31 ¶ And the firſtborn ſaid unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth [29] to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:
32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we [30] may preſerve ſeed of our father.
33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firſtborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when ſhe lay down, nor when ſhe aroſe.
34 And it came to paſs on the morrow, that the firſtborn ſaid unto the younger, Behold, I lay yeſternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night alſo; and go thou in, and lie with him, that we may preſerve ſeed of our father.
