And they said again, "This one fellow came in to sojourn, and he will necessarily be a judge: Now we will deal worse with you, than with them." And they pressed intensely upon the man, even Lot, and came near to breaking the door. ¹⁰ But the men put forth their hand, and pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door. ¹¹ 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.
