Genesis 19:17-23 And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, do not look behind thee, neither stay thou in all the Plain. Escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed.

ACV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ And it came to pass, when they had brought them forth abroad, that he said, Escape for thy life, do not look behind thee, neither stay thou in all the Plain. Escape to the mountain, lest thou be consumed. ¹⁸ And Lot said to them, Oh, not so, my lord. ¹⁹ Behold now, thy servant has found favor in thy sight, and thou have magnified thy loving kindness, which thou have shown to me in saving my life, and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest evil overtake me, and I die. ²⁰ Behold now, this city is near to flee to, and it is a little one. Oh let me escape there (is it not a little one?), and my soul shall live. ²¹ And he said to him, See, I have accepted thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow the city of which thou have spoken. ²² Hasten thee, escape there, for I cannot do anything till thou have come there. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar. ²³ The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot came to Zoar.
