Young's Literal Translation
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;
And two of
the
messengers
come
towards
Sodom at even ,
and Lot is
sitting
at
the gate of Sodom ,
and Lot seeth,
and
riseth
to meet them ,
and boweth
himself --
face to
the earth,
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
.
and he saith
, `Lo
, I
pray
you,
my lords, turn aside
, I pray you, unto
the
house of
your
servant
, and lodge
, and wash your feet --
then
ye have
risen
early and gone
on your way;'
and they say
, `
Nay ,
but in the broad
place
we
do
lodge
. '
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.
And he presseth
on
them greatly ,
and they turn
aside
unto him, and come
in
unto
his house; and he maketh
for
them a banquet
, and hath
baked
unleavened things;
and they do
eat.
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:
Before they lie
down, the men of the city --
men of Sodom --
have
come
round
about
against
the house, from
young even
unto
aged
, all the people from the
extremity;
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.
and they call
unto Lot and say
to
him, `
Where `
are '
the men who
have
come
in unto
thee to-
night? bring them out unto us, and
we know them. '
And Lot went
out at
the
door
unto them, and shut
the door after
him,
And Lot goeth
out unto them, to
the
opening,
and the door hath
shut
behind
him,
And said
, I pray you, brethren, do not
so
wickedly.
and saith
, `Do
not,
I pray you, my
brethren, do evil;
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.
lo
, I pray
you,
I
have two daughters ,
who
have not known any
one
; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do to them as `
is '
good in your eyes ;
only to
these men do not
anything,
for therefore have
they come
in
within
the shadow of my roof. '
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.
And they say
, `Come
nigh
hither;'
they say
also
, `
This one hath
come
in to sojourn, and he certainly
judgeth!
now ,
we do
evil
to
thee more
than `to'
them ;'
and they press
against
the man, against
Lot greatly
, and come
nigh
to break the door.
But
the men put forth their hand, and pulled
Lot into the house to
them
, and shut to
the door .
And
the men put forth their hand, and bring
in
Lot unto
them,
into the house, and have
shut the door ;
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
.
and the men who
`are'
at the opening
of the house they
have
smitten
with blindness, from
small even
unto
great ,
and
they weary
themselves to find the opening
.
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 :
And the men say
unto Lot, `Whom
hast thou here still
? son -
in -
law, thy sons also
, and thy daughters, and all
whom
thou hast in the city, bring out from
this place ;
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.
for we are
destroying
this place, for
their
cry hath
been
great `
before '
the face of Jehovah,
and Jehovah
doth
send
us to destroy it. '
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.
And Lot goeth
out, and speaketh
unto his sons -
in -
law, those
taking
his daughters, and saith
, `Rise
, go
out from
this place ,
for Jehovah
is
destroying
the city ;'
and
he is
as `
one '
mocking
in
the
eyes
of
his sons -
in -
law.
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.
And when the dawn
hath
ascended
, then the messengers
press
upon
Lot, saying, `Rise
, take thy wife, and thy two daughters who
are found
present,
lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city. '
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.
And he lingereth
, and
the men lay
hold on
his hand, and on
the hand of his wife, and on
the hand of his two daughters ,
through
the mercy
of
Jehovah
unto him ,
and they bring
him out
, and cause
him to
rest
without the city.
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.
And it cometh
to pass when he
hath
brought them out
without
, that he saith
, `
Escape for thy life; look not expectingly
behind thee, nor
stand
thou in all the circuit
; to the mountain escape
, lest thou be consumed. '
And Lot said
unto them, Oh,
not so, my LORD :
And Lot saith
unto them, `
Not `
so '
, I
pray
thee,
my lord ;
Behold
now
, thy servant hath found grace in thy
sight
, and thou hast
magnified
thy mercy,
which thou hast showed
unto
me in
saving my life ;
and I cannot
escape to the mountain, lest some
evil take
me, and I die:
lo
, I
pray
thee,
thy servant hath found grace in thine
eyes
, and thou dost
make
great
thy kindness
which thou hast done
with
me by
saving my life ,
and I am
unable
to
escape to the mountain, lest the
evil cleave
`to'
me, and I have
died;
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.
lo
, I
pray
thee,
this city `
is '
near to flee thither
, and it `
is '
little ;
let me escape ,
I
pray
thee,
thither, (is it not little?) and my soul doth
live. '
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 .
And he saith
unto him, `Lo
, I have accepted thy
face
also
for
this thing, without
overthrowing
the
city `
for '
which thou hast spoken ;
Haste thee
, escape thither ;
for I cannot
do anything till thou
be
come
thither .
Therefore the name of the city was
called
Zoar.
haste, escape thither ,
for I am
not
able
to
do anything till thine
entering
thither ;'
therefore hath
he
calleth
the name of the city Zoar.
The sun was
risen
upon
the earth when
Lot entered into Zoar .
The sun hath
gone
out
on
the earth ,
and
Lot hath
entered into Zoar ,
Then
the
LORD
rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD
out
of
heaven
;
and
Jehovah
hath
rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah,
from
the heavens
;
And he overthrew
those
cities, and all the plain
, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew
upon
the ground.
and He overthroweth
these
cities, and all the circuit
, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which is
shooting
up
from
the ground.
But
his wife looked
back
from behind him, and she became
a pillar of salt .
And
his wife looketh
expectingly
from behind him, and she is
--
a pillar of salt !
And Abraham gat
up
early in the morning to
the place where he stood before the LORD:
And Abraham riseth
early in the morning ,
unto
the place where he hath
stood `
before '
the face
of
Jehovah;
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.
and he looketh
on
the
face
of
Sodom and Gomorrah, and on
all the face
of
the
land of the circuit
, and seeth
, and lo, the smoke of the land
went up as smoke of the
furnace.
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.
And it cometh
to pass, in
God's
destroying
the cities of the circuit
, that God remembereth
Abraham, and sendeth
Lot out of the midst of the overthrow in
the overthrowing
of
the
cities in which Lot dwelt.
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.
And Lot goeth
up out of Zoar, and dwelleth
in the mountain, and his two daughters with him ,
for he hath
been
afraid
of
dwelling
in Zoar ,
and he dwelleth
in a cave, he and his two daughters.
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 :
And the first-born
saith
unto the younger, `
Our father `
is '
old, and a
man
there is not in the earth to come in unto us ,
as
`is'
the way
of all the earth ;
Come, let
us
make
our father drink wine, and we
will
lie with him, that
we
may
preserve seed
of
our father.
come, we
cause
our father to
drink wine, and lie with him, and
preserve from
our father --
a
seed
. '
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
.
And they cause
their father to
drink wine on
that night ;
and the first-born
goeth
in, and lieth
with her father ,
and he hath
not known
in
her
lying
down, or
in
her
rising
up
.
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.
And it cometh
to pass ,
on the morrow, that the first-born
saith
unto the younger, `Lo
, I have
lain
yesterday-night
with my father: we
cause
him to
drink wine also to-night,
and go thou in, lie with him, and
we preserve from
our father --
a
seed
. '
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
.
And they cause
their father to
drink wine on
that night also ,
and the younger riseth
and lieth
with him ,
and he hath
not known
in
her
lying
down, or
in
her
rising
up
.
Thus
were
both
the daughters of Lot with
child
by
their father .
And
the two
daughters of Lot conceive
from
their father ,
And the first born bare
a son, and called
his name Moab :
the
same
is the
father of the
Moabites
unto this day .
and the first -
born beareth
a son, and calleth
his name Moab ;
he
`
is '
father of Moab
unto this day ;
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.
as
to
the younger, she also hath
born
a son, and calleth
his name Ben-Ammi
: he
`
is '
father of the Beni-
Ammon unto this day.
