12. And they said to Lot: Hast thou here ally of thine? son in law, or sons, or daughters, all that are thine bring them out of this city:
13. For we will destroy this place, because their cry is grown loud before the Lord, who hath sent us to destroy them.
14. So Lot went out, and spoke to his sons in law that were to have his daughters, and said: Arise: get you out of this place, because the Lord will destroy this city. And he seemed to them to speak as it were in jest.
15. And when it was morning, the angels pressed him, saying: Arise, take thy wife, and the two daughters which thou hast: lest thou also perish in the wickedness of the city.
16. And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.
