1	And there came# two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat# in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing# them rose up# to meet# them; and he bowed# himself with his face toward the ground;
			2	And he said# , Behold now, my lords, turn in# , I pray you, into your servant's house, and tarry all night# , and wash# your feet, and ye shall rise up early# , and go# on your ways. And they said# , Nay; but we will abide# in the street all night# .
			3	And he pressed# upon them greatly; and they turned in# unto him, and entered# into his house; and he made# them a feast, and did bake# unleavened bread, and they did eat# .
			4	But before they lay down# , the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed# the house round# , both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
			5	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.
			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 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.
			9	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.
			10	But the men put forth# their hand, and pulled# Lot into the house to them, and shut# to 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.
			12	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:
			13	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.
			14	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.
			15	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. [are here: Heb. are found] [iniquity: or, punishment]
			16	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.
			17	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# .
			18	And Lot said# unto them, Oh, not so, my Lord:
			19	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# :
			20	Behold now, this city is near to flee# unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape# thither, ( is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live# .
			21	And he said# unto him, See, I have accepted# thee concerning this thing also, that I will not overthrow# this city, for the which thou hast spoken# . [thee: Heb. thy face]
			22	Haste# thee, escape# thither; for I cannot# do# any thing till thou be come# thither. Therefore the name of the city was called# Zoar. [Zoar: that is, Little]
			23	The sun was risen# upon the earth when Lot entered# into Zoar. [risen: Heb. gone forth]
			24	Then the LORD rained# upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
			25	And he overthrew# those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants# of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
			26	But his wife looked back# from behind him, and she became a pillar of salt.
			27	And Abraham gat up early# in the morning to the place where he stood# before the LORD:
			28	And he looked# toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld# , and, lo, the smoke of the country went up# as the smoke of a furnace.
			29	And it came to pass, when God destroyed# the cities of the plain, that God remembered# Abraham, and sent# Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when he overthrew# the cities in the which Lot dwelt# .
			30	And Lot went up# out of Zoar, and dwelt# in the mountain, and his two daughters with him; for he feared# to dwell# in Zoar: and he dwelt# in a cave, he and his two daughters.
			31	And the firstborn said# unto the younger, Our father is old# , and there is not a man in the earth to come in# unto us after the manner of all the earth:
			32	Come# , let us make# our father drink# wine, and we will lie# with him, that we may preserve# seed of our father.
			33	And they made# their father drink# wine that night: and the firstborn went in# , and lay# with her father; and he perceived# not when she lay down# , nor when she arose# .
			34	And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said# unto the younger, Behold, I lay# yesternight with my father: let us make him drink# wine this night also; and go thou in# , and lie# with him, that we may preserve# seed of our father.
			35	And they made# their father drink# wine that night also: and the younger arose# , and lay# with him; and he perceived# not when she lay down# , nor when she arose# .
			36	Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child# by their father.
			37	And the firstborn bare# a son, and called# his name Moab: the same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
			38	And the younger, she also bare# a son, and called# his name Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
