Genesis 19:17-23 And coming is it, as they bring them forth outside. They are saying also, "Be sure to escape with your soul! You must not look behind you, and you must not stand in any part of the basin. Escape to the mountain, lest you be swept up!"

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁷ And coming is it, as they bring them forth outside. They are saying also, "Be sure to escape with your soul! You must not look behind you, and you must not stand in any part of the basin. Escape to the mountain, lest you be swept up!" ¹⁸ And saying is Lot to them. "It must not be, pray, Yahweh!" ¹⁹ Behold, pray! Your servant finds grace in Your eyes, and magnifying are You Your kindness which You do to me in preserving alive my soul. Yet I, I cannot escape to the mountain, lest evil cling to me and I die. ²⁰ Behold, pray! This city is near to flee there, and it is inferior. Pray, escape shall I there--Is it not inferior?--and live shall my soul. ²¹ And saying is He to him, "Behold! Lifted up have I your face, even as to this matter, to avoid My overturning the city of which you speak. ²² Hasten! Escape there, for not a thing can I do till you come there.Therefore he calls the name of the city Zoar. ²³ The sun comes forth over the earth when Lot comes to Zoar.
