Genesis 19:1-11

CLV(i) 1 And coming are two of the messengers to Sodom in the evening. And Lot is sitting in the gateway of Sodom. And seeing them is Lot, and rising is he to meet them. And prostrating is he, nostrils to the earth. 2 And saying is he, "Behold, pray, my lords! Withdraw, pray, to the house of your servant and lodge and wash your feet, and rise early and go on your way.And saying are they, "No, for in the square will we lodge. 3 And urging them is he exceedingly. And withdrawing are they to him, and coming to his house. And making is he for them a feast, and he bakes unleavened bread, and they are eating. 4 Ere they are lying down, then mortals of the city, mortals of Sodom, surround the house, from the lad even unto the elder, the entire people, from the outmost parts. 5 And calling are they to Lot, and saying to him, "Where are the mortals who came to you tonight? Bring them forth to us, and we will know them. 6 And forth to them is Lot faring, to the portal, yet the door he closes after him. 7 And saying is he to them, "Pray, you must not, my brethren, do evil!" 8 Behold, pray, my two daughters who have not known a man. Pray, forth will I bring them to you, and do you to them as is good in your eyes. But to these mortals you must not do anything evil, for therefore come they into the shadow of my rafters. 9 Yet saying are they, "Come close you, beyond.And saying are they, "The one who came to sojourn is judging, even as a judge! Now we will do more evil to you than to them.And urging are they the man Lot exceedingly, and close are they coming to break the door. 10 And stretching forth are the mortals their hands and bringing Lot to them into the house, and the door they close. 11 And the mortals who are at the portal of the house they smite with dazzlings, from the small to the great, so they are tiring themselves trying to find the portal.
