5
And they called to Lot and said to him, "Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally."
6
So Lot went out to them through the doorway, shut the door behind him,
7
and said, "Please, my brethren, do not do so wickedly!
8
See now, I have two daughters who have not known a man; please, let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them as you wish; only do nothing to these men, since this is the reason they have come under the shadow of my roof."
9
And they said, "Stand back!" Then they said, "This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them." So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door.
10
But the men reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
11
And they struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they became weary trying to find the door.
12
Then the men said to Lot, "Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city--take them out of this place!
13
For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it."
14
So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, "Get up, get out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city!" But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.
15
When the morning dawned, the angels urged Lot to hurry, saying, "Arise, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be consumed in the punishment of the city."
