- They struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they wearied themselves trying to find the doorway.
- Then the two men said to Lot, "Whom else have you here? A son-in-law, and your sons, and your daughters, and whomever you have in the city, bring them out of the place;
- for we are about to destroy this place, because their outcry has become so great before the LORD that the LORD has sent us to destroy it."
- Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were to marry his daughters, and said, "Up, get out of this place, for the LORD will destroy the city " But he appeared to his sons-in-law to be jesting.
- When morning dawned, the angels urged Lot, saying, "Up, take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away in the punishment of the city."

- Then they struck the men who were at the door of the house, young and old, with blindness so that they could not find the door.
- The two men said to Lot, "Do you have anyone else here--sons-in-law, sons or daughters, or anyone else in the city who belongs to you? Get them out of here,
- because we are going to destroy this place. The outcry to the LORD against its people is so great that he has sent us to destroy it."
- So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry his daughters. He said, "Hurry and get out of this place, because the LORD is about to destroy the city!" But his sons-in-law thought he was joking.
- With the coming of dawn, the angels urged Lot, saying, "Hurry! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you will be swept away when the city is punished."
