New Testament

Genesis 19:3-9 Common English Bible (CEB)

3. He pleaded earnestly with them, so they went with him and entered his house. He made a big meal for them, even baking unleavened bread, and they ate.

4. Before they went to bed, the men of the city of Sodom—everyone from the youngest to the oldest—surrounded the house

5. and called to Lot, "Where are the men who arrived tonight? Bring them out to us so that we may have sex with them."

6. Lot went out toward the entrance, closed the door behind him,

7. and said, "My brothers, don’t do such an evil thing.

8. I’ve got two daughters who are virgins. Let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them whatever you wish. But don’t do anything to these men because they are now under the protection of my roof."

9. They said, "Get out of the way!" And they continued, "Does this immigrant want to judge us? Now we will hurt you more than we will hurt them." They pushed Lot back and came close to breaking down the door.
