5. And they called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we may know them.”
6. But Lot went out to them at the entrance, and he shut the door behind him.
7. And he said, “No, my brothers, please do not do such a wrong thing.
8. Behold, I have two daughters who have not known a man. Please, let me bring them out to you; then do to them as it seems good in your eyes. Only to these men do not do this thing, since they came under my roof for protection.”
9. But they said, “Step aside!” Then they said, “This fellow came to dwell as a foreigner and he acts as a judge! Now we shall do worse to you than them!” And they pressed very hard against the man, against Lot, and they drew near to break the door.
10. Then the men reached out with their hands and brought Lot in to them, into the house, and they shut the door.
11. And the men who were at the entrance of the house they struck with blindness, both small and great, and they were unable to find the entrance.
12. Then the men said to Lot, “Who is here with you? Bring out from the place your sons-in-law, and your sons and your daughters, and all who are with you in the city.
13. For we are about to destroy this place, because their cry has become great before Yahweh. Yahweh sent us to destroy it.”
14. Then Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law who were taking his daughters and said, “Get up! Go out from this place, because Yahweh is going to destroy the city!” But it seemed like a joke in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
15. And as the dawn came up the angels urged Lot saying, “Get up, take your wife and your two daughters who are staying with you, lest you be destroyed with the punishment of the city.”
