Proverbs 24:1 Cross References - Thomson

¹ My son, envy not bad men, nor desire to be with them:

¹⁰ Then Lot raised his eyes and took a view of all the country bordering on the Jordan. For before God overthrew Sodom and Gormorra it was all watered till it reacheth Zogora, like the paradise of God, and like the land, of Egypt. ¹¹ So Lot chose for himself all the country bordering on the Jordan; and Lot removed to the eastern border. And the brothers separated one from the other. And Abram dwelt in the land of Chanaan; ¹² and Lot dwelt in a city of the borderers and pitched his tent among the Sodomites, ¹³ though the men of Sodom were wicked and very great sinners in the sight of the Lord.

¹ Now in the evening the two angels came to Sodom, and Lot was sitting at the gate of Sodom, and upon seeing them, Lot arose to meet them, and made obeisance with his face to the ground, ² and said, I intreat you, my lords, turn aside to the house of your servant and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and rising early in the morning, you may proceed on your journey. And they said, No, we will lodge in the street. ³ Then he pressed them, and they went home with him. And when they came to his house, he made an entertainment for them; and baked for them unleavened cakes, and they did eat. ⁴ But before they went to rest, the men of the city, the Sodomites, surrounded the house, both young and old; all the people in a body. ⁵ And they called out Lot and said to him, Where are the men who came to thee this night? Bring them out to us that we may know them. ⁶ Whereupon Lot went out to them into the porch and shut the door after him: ⁷ And he said to them, You must not brethren, commit such wickedness. ⁸ I have two daughters who have not known man; Let me bring out these to you, and use them as you please; only do no injury to these men in as much as they have come under the shelter of my roof. ⁹ And they said to him, Begone there! Thou camest to sojourn, didst thou also, to be our judge? Now therefore we will treat thee worse than them. And they pressed violently against the man, Lot; and came near to break open the door. ¹⁰ Then the men stretched forth their hands and pulled Lot to them into the house and shut the door of the house, ¹¹ and smote with blindness the men who were at the door of the house, both small and great, so that they were tired seeking the door.

¹¹ saying, Come with us; partake of blood; and let us hide in the earth an innocent man without cause, ¹² and swallow him up alive, as the grave, and take away from earth the remembrance of him. ¹³ Let us seize his precious substance and fill our houses with spoils. ¹⁴ Cast in thy lot among us, and let us all have a common purse. Let one scrip serve us. ¹⁵ Go not thou in the way with them; but turn thy foot from their paths.
