Bring them out unto us that we may know them. ⁶ And Lot went out at the door unto them and shut the door after him ⁷ and said, I pray you, brethren, do not so wickedly. ⁸ Behold now, I have two daughters who 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 they have come under the shadow of my roof. ⁹ And they said, Stand back. And they said again, This fellow came in to sojourn and is he to lift himself up as judge? Now will we deal worse with thee than with them.

Sons-in-law and thy sons and thy daughters and whatever thou hast in the city, bring them out of this place; ¹³ For we will destroy this place because the cry of them is waxed great before the face of the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it. ¹⁴ And Lot went out and spoke unto his sons-in-law, those who were to marry his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city.
