Genesis 19:13-17

Genesis 19:13-17 GW

because we’re going to destroy this place. The complaints to the LORD against its people are so loud that the LORD has sent us to destroy it.” So Lot went out and spoke to the men engaged to his daughters. He said, “Hurry! Get out of this place, because the LORD is going to destroy the city.” But they thought he was joking. As soon as it was dawn, the angels urged Lot by saying, “Quick! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or you’ll be swept away when the city is punished.” When he hesitated, the men grabbed him, his wife, and his two daughters by their hands, because the LORD wanted to spare Lot. They brought them safely outside the city. As soon as they were outside, one ⌞of the angels⌟ said, “Run for your lives! Don’t look behind you, and don’t stop on the plain. Run for the hills, or you’ll be swept away!”
