01:019:005 And they called unto Lot, and said unto
him, Where are the men
which
came in to thee this night? bring them out unto us,
that
we
may know them.
01:019:006 And Lot went out at the door unto them,
and shut the door
after
him,
01:019:007 And said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly.
01:019:008 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;
for
therefore
came they under the shadow of my roof.
01:019:009 And they said, Stand back. And they
said again, This one
fellow
came in to sojourn, 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.
01:019:010 But the men put forth their hand, and pulled
Lot into the
house
to them, and shut to the door.
01:019:011 And they smote the men that were at the
door of the house with
blindness,
both small and great: so that they wearied
themselves
to find the door.
01:019:012 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, bring them out of this place:
01:019:013 For we will destroy this place, because
the cry of them is
waxen
great before the face of the lord; and the lord
hath
sent
us to destroy it.
01:019:014 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons
in law, which
married
his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this
place;
for the lord will destroy this city. But
he seemed as
one
that mocked unto his sons in law.
01:019:015 And when the morning arose, then the angels
hastened Lot,
saying,
Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters, which
are
here;
lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.
01:019:016 And 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;
the lord being merciful unto him: and they
brought
him
forth, and set him without the city.
01:019:017 And it came to pass, when they had brought
them forth abroad,
that
he said, Escape for thy life; look not behind thee,
neither
stay thou in all the plain; escape to the mountain,
lest
thou be consumed.
01:019:018 And Lot said unto them, Oh, not so, my lord:
01:019:019 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:
