Genesis 19:15-17
Legacy Standard Bible
15 Now at the [a]breaking of dawn, the angels urged Lot, saying, “Get up, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, lest you be swept away in the [b]punishment of the city.” 16 But he hesitated. So the men (A)seized his hand and the hand of his wife and the [c]hands of his two daughters, for (B)the compassion of Yahweh was upon him; and they brought him out and put him outside the city. 17 Now it happened, as they brought them outside, [d]one said, “(C)Escape for your life! (D)Do not look behind you, and do not stay [e]anywhere in the (E)valley; escape to (F)the [f]mountains, lest you be swept away.”
