1. And two of the messengers come towards Sodom at even, and Lot is sitting at the gate of Sodom, and Lot seeth, and riseth to meet them, and boweth himself -- face to the earth,
|
1. And there came H935 two H8147 angels H4397 to Sodom H5467 at even H6153 ; and Lot H3876 sat H3427 in the gate H8179 of Sodom H5467 : and Lot H3876 seeing H7200 them rose up H6965 to meet H7125 them ; and he bowed himself H7812 with his face H639 toward the ground H776 ;
|
|
2. and he saith, `Lo, I pray you, my lords, turn aside, I pray you, unto the house of your servant, and lodge, and wash your feet -- then ye have risen early and gone on your way;` and they say, `Nay, but in the broad place we do lodge.`
|
2. And he said H559 , Behold H2009 now H4994 , my lords H113 , turn in H5493 , I pray you H4994 , into H413 your servant H5650 's house H1004 , and tarry all night H3885 , and wash H7364 your feet H7272 , and ye shall rise up early H7925 , and go H1980 on your ways H1870 . And they said H559 , Nay H3808 ; but H3588 we will abide in the street all night H3885 H7339 .
|
|
3. And he presseth on them greatly, and they turn aside unto him, and come in unto his house; and he maketh for them a banquet, and hath baked unleavened things; and they do eat.
|
3. And he pressed H6484 upon them greatly H3966 ; and they turned in H5493 unto H413 him , and entered H935 into H413 his house H1004 ; and he made H6213 them a feast H4960 , and did bake H644 unleavened bread H4682 , and they did eat H398 .
|
|
4. Before they lie down, the men of the city -- men of Sodom -- have come round about against the house, from young even unto aged, all the people from the extremity;
|
4. But before H2962 they lay down H7901 , the men H376 of the city H5892 , even the men H376 of Sodom H5467 , compassed H5437 H5921 the house H1004 round , both old H2205 and young H4480 H5288 , all H3605 the people H5971 from every quarter H4480 H7097 :
|
|
5. and they call unto Lot and say to him, `Where are the men who have come in unto thee to-night? bring them out unto us, and we know them.`
|
5. And they called H7121 unto H413 Lot H3876 , and said H559 unto him, Where H346 are the men H376 which H834 came in H935 to H413 thee this night H3915 ? bring them out H3318 unto H413 us , that we may know H3045 them.
|
|
6. And Lot goeth out unto them, to the opening, and the door hath shut behind him,
|
6. And Lot H3876 went out H3318 at the door H6607 unto H413 them , and shut H5462 the door H1817 after H310 him,
|
|
7. and saith, `Do not, I pray you, my brethren, do evil;
|
7. And said H559 , I pray you H4994 , brethren H251 , do not so wickedly H7489 H408 .
|
|
8. lo, I pray you, I have two daughters, who have not known any one; let me, I pray you, bring them out unto you, and do to them as is good in your eyes; only to these men do not anything, for therefore have they come in within the shadow of my roof.`
|
8. Behold H2009 now H4994 , I have two H8147 daughters H1323 which H834 have not H3808 known H3045 man H376 ; let me , I pray you H4994 , bring them out H3318 H853 unto H413 you , and do H6213 ye to them as is good H2896 in your eyes H5869 : only H7535 unto these H411 men H376 do H6213 nothing H408 H1697 ; for H3588 therefore H5921 H3651 came H935 they under the shadow H6738 of my roof H6982 .
|
|
9. And they say, `Come nigh hither;` they say also, `This one hath come in to sojourn, and he certainly judgeth! now, we do evil to thee more than to them;` and they press against the man, against Lot greatly, and come nigh to break the door.
|
9. And they said H559 , Stand H5066 back H1973 . And they said H559 again , This one H259 fellow came in H935 to sojourn H1481 , and he will needs be a judge H8199 H8199 : now H6258 will we deal worse H7489 with thee, than H4480 with them . And they pressed H6484 sore H3966 upon the man H376 , even Lot H3876 , and came near H5066 to break H7665 the door H1817 .
|
|
10. And the men put forth their hand, and bring in Lot unto them, into the house, and have shut the door;
|
10. But the men H376 put forth H7971 H853 their hand H3027 , and pulled H935 H853 Lot H3876 into the house H1004 to H413 them , and shut to H5462 the door H1817 .
|
|
11. and the men who are at the opening of the house they have smitten with blindness, from small even unto great, and they weary themselves to find the opening.
|
11. And they smote H5221 the men H376 that H834 were at the door H6607 of the house H1004 with blindness H5575 , both small H4480 H6996 and great H1419 : so that they wearied themselves H3811 to find H4672 the door H6607 .
|
|
12. And the men say unto Lot, `Whom hast thou here still? son-in-law, thy sons also, and thy daughters, and all whom thou hast in the city, bring out from this place;
|
12. And the men H376 said H559 unto H413 Lot H3876 , Hast thou here H6311 any H4310 besides H5750 a son H2860 -in-law , and thy sons H1121 , and thy daughters H1323 ? and whatsoever H3605 H834 thou hast in the city H5892 , bring H3318 them out of H4480 this place H4725 :
|
|
13. for we are destroying this place, for their cry hath been great before the face of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth send us to destroy it.`
|
13. For H3588 we H587 will destroy H7843 H853 this H2088 place H4725 , because H3588 the cry H6818 of them is waxen great H1431 H853 before the face H6440 of the LORD H3068 ; and the LORD H3068 hath sent H7971 us to destroy H7843 it.
|
|
14. And Lot goeth out, and speaketh unto his sons-in-law, those taking his daughters, and saith, `Rise, go out from this place, for Jehovah is destroying the city;` and he is as one mocking in the eyes of his sons-in-law.
|
14. And Lot H3876 went out H3318 , and spoke H1696 unto H413 his sons H2860 -in-law , which married H3947 his daughters H1323 , and said H559 , Up H6965 , get you out H3318 of H4480 this H2088 place H4725 ; for H3588 the LORD H3068 will destroy H7843 H853 this city H5892 . But he seemed H1961 as one that mocked H6711 unto H5869 his sons H2860 -in-law.
|
|
15. And when the dawn hath ascended, then the messengers press upon Lot, saying, `Rise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters who are found present, lest thou be consumed in the iniquity of the city.`
|
15. And when H3644 the morning H7837 arose H5927 , then the angels H4397 hastened H213 Lot H3876 , saying H559 , Arise H6965 , take H3947 H853 thy wife H802 , and thy two H8147 daughters H1323 , which are here H4672 ; lest H6435 thou be consumed H5595 in the iniquity H5771 of the city H5892 .
|
|
16. And he lingereth, and the men lay hold on his hand, and on the hand of his wife, and on the hand of his two daughters, through the mercy of Jehovah unto him, and they bring him out, and cause him to rest without the city.
|
16. And while he lingered H4102 , the men H376 laid hold H2388 upon his hand H3027 , and upon the hand H3027 of his wife H802 , and upon the hand H3027 of his two H8147 daughters H1323 ; the LORD H3068 being merciful H2551 unto H5921 him : and they brought him forth H3318 , and set H5117 him without H4480 H2351 the city H5892 .
|
|
17. And it cometh to pass when he hath brought them out without, that he saith, `Escape for thy life; look not expectingly behind thee, nor stand thou in all the circuit; to the mountain escape, lest thou be consumed.`
|
17. And it came to pass H1961 , when they had brought them forth H3318 H853 abroad H2351 , that he said H559 , Escape H4422 for H5921 thy life H5315 ; look H5027 not H408 behind H310 thee, neither H408 stay H5975 thou in all H3605 the plain H3603 ; escape H4422 to the mountain H2022 , lest H6435 thou be consumed H5595 .
|
|
18. And Lot saith unto them, `Not so, I pray thee, my lord;
|
18. And Lot H3876 said H559 unto H413 them, Oh H4994 , not H408 so , my Lord H136 :
|
|
19. lo, I pray thee, thy servant hath found grace in thine eyes, and thou dost make great thy kindness which thou hast done with me by saving my life, and I am unable to escape to the mountain, lest the evil cleave to me, and I have died;
|
19. Behold H2009 now H4994 , thy servant H5650 hath found H4672 grace H2580 in thy sight H5869 , and thou hast magnified H1431 thy mercy H2617 , which H834 thou hast showed H6213 unto H5973 me in saving H2421 H853 my life H5315 ; and I H595 cannot H3808 H3201 escape H4422 to the mountain H2022 , lest H6435 some evil H7451 take H1692 me , and I die H4191 :
|
|
20. lo, I pray thee, this city is near to flee thither, and it is little; let me escape, I pray thee, thither, (is it not little?) and my soul doth live.`
|
20. Behold H2009 now H4994 , this H2063 city H5892 is near H7138 to flee H5127 unto H8033 , and it H1931 is a little one H4705 : Oh H4994 , let me escape H4422 thither H8033 , (is it H1931 not H3808 a little one H4705 ?) and my soul H5315 shall live H2421 .
|
|
21. And he saith unto him, `Lo, I have accepted thy face also for this thing, without overthrowing the city for which thou hast spoken;
|
21. And he said H559 unto H413 him, See H2009 , I have accepted H5375 H6440 thee concerning this H2088 thing H1697 also H1571 , that I will not H1115 overthrow H2015 H853 this city H5892 , for the which H834 thou hast spoken H1696 .
|
|
22. haste, escape thither, for I am not able to do anything till thine entering thither;` therefore hath he calleth the name of the city Zoar.
|
22. Haste H4116 thee, escape H4422 thither H8033 ; for H3588 I cannot H3808 H3201 do H6213 any thing H1697 till H5704 thou be come H935 thither H8033 . Therefore H5921 H3651 the name H8034 of the city H5892 was called H7121 Zoar H6820 .
|
|
23. The sun hath gone out on the earth, and Lot hath entered into Zoar,
|
23. The sun H8121 was risen H3318 upon H5921 the earth H776 when Lot H3876 entered H935 into Zoar H6820 .
|
|
24. and Jehovah hath rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah, from the heavens;
|
24. Then the LORD H3068 rained H4305 upon H5921 Sodom H5467 and upon H5921 Gomorrah H6017 brimstone H1614 and fire H784 from H4480 H854 the LORD H3068 out of H4480 heaven H8064 ;
|
|
25. and He overthroweth these cities, and all the circuit, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that which is shooting up from the ground.
|
25. And he overthrew H2015 H853 those H411 cities H5892 , and all H3605 the plain H3603 , and all H3605 the inhabitants H3427 of the cities H5892 , and that which grew H6780 upon the ground H127 .
|
|
26. And his wife looketh expectingly from behind him, and she is -- a pillar of salt!
|
26. But his wife H802 looked H5027 back from behind H4480 H310 him , and she became H1961 a pillar H5333 of salt H4417 .
|
|
27. And Abraham riseth early in the morning, unto the place where he hath stood before the face of Jehovah;
|
27. And Abraham H85 got up early H7925 in the morning H1242 to H413 the place H4725 where H834 H8033 he stood H5975 H853 before H6440 the LORD H3068 :
|
|
28. and he looketh on the face of Sodom and Gomorrah, and on all the face of the land of the circuit, and seeth, and lo, the smoke of the land went up as smoke of the furnace.
|
28. And he looked H8259 toward H5921 H6440 Sodom H5467 and Gomorrah H6017 , and toward H5921 H6440 all H3605 the land H776 of the plain H3603 , and beheld H7200 , and, lo H2009 , the smoke H7008 of the country H776 went up H5927 as the smoke H7008 of a furnace H3536 .
|
|
29. And it cometh to pass, in God`s destroying the cities of the circuit, that God remembereth Abraham, and sendeth Lot out of the midst of the overthrow in the overthrowing of the cities in which Lot dwelt.
|
29. And it came to pass H1961 , when God H430 destroyed H7843 H853 the cities H5892 of the plain H3603 , that God H430 remembered H2142 H853 Abraham H85 , and sent H7971 H853 Lot H3876 out of the midst H4480 H8432 of the overthrow H2018 , when he overthrew H2015 H853 the cities H5892 in the which H2004 H834 Lot H3876 dwelt H3427 .
|
|
30. And Lot goeth up out of Zoar, and dwelleth in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he hath been afraid of dwelling in Zoar, and he dwelleth in a cave, he and his two daughters.
|
30. And Lot H3876 went up H5927 out of Zoar H4480 H6820 , and dwelt H3427 in the mountain H2022 , and his two H8147 daughters H1323 with H5973 him; for H3588 he feared H3372 to dwell H3427 in Zoar H6820 : and he dwelt H3427 in a cave H4631 , he H1931 and his two H8147 daughters H1323 .
|
|
31. And the first-born saith unto the younger, `Our father is old, and a man there is not in the earth to come in unto us, as is the way of all the earth;
|
31. And the firstborn H1067 said H559 unto H413 the younger H6810 , Our father H1 is old H2204 , and there is not H369 a man H376 in the earth H776 to come in H935 unto H5921 us after the manner H1870 of all H3605 the earth H776 :
|
|
32. come, we cause our father to drink wine, and lie with him, and preserve from our father -- a seed.`
|
32. Come H1980 , let us make H853 our father H1 drink H8248 wine H3196 , and we will lie H7901 with H5973 him , that we may preserve H2421 seed H2233 of our father H4480 H1 .
|
|
33. And they cause their father to drink wine on that night; and the first-born goeth in, and lieth with her father, and he hath not known in her lying down, or in her rising up.
|
33. And they made H853 their father H1 drink H8248 wine H3196 that H1931 night H3915 : and the firstborn H1067 went in H935 , and lay H7901 with H854 her father H1 ; and he perceived H3045 not H3808 when she lay down H7901 , nor when she arose H6965 .
|
|
34. And it cometh to pass, on the morrow, that the first-born saith unto the younger, `Lo, I have lain yesterday-night with my father: we cause him to drink wine also to-night, and go thou in, lie with him, and we preserve from our father -- a seed.`
|
34. And it came to pass H1961 on the morrow H4480 H4283 , that the firstborn H1067 said H559 unto H413 the younger H6810 , Behold H2005 , I lay H7901 last night H570 with H854 my father H1 : let us make him drink H8248 wine H3196 this night H3915 also H1571 ; and go thou in H935 , and lie H7901 with H5973 him , that we may preserve H2421 seed H2233 of our father H4480 H1 .
|
|
35. And they cause their father to drink wine on that night also, and the younger riseth and lieth with him, and he hath not known in her lying down, or in her rising up.
|
35. And they made H853 their father H1 drink H8248 wine H3196 that H1931 night H3915 also H1571 : and the younger H6810 arose H6965 , and lay H7901 with H5973 him ; and he perceived H3045 not H3808 when she lay down H7901 , nor when she arose H6965 .
|
|
36. And the two daughters of Lot conceive from their father,
|
36. Thus were both H8147 the daughters H1323 of Lot H3876 with child H2029 by their father H4480 H1 .
|
|
37. and the first-born beareth a son, and calleth his name Moab; he is father of Moab unto this day;
|
37. And the firstborn H1067 bore H3205 a son H1121 , and called H7121 his name H8034 Moab H4124 : the same H1931 is the father H1 of the Moabites H4124 unto H5704 this day H3117 .
|
|
38. as to the younger, she also hath born a son, and calleth his name Ben-Ammi: he is father of the Beni-Ammon unto this day.
|
38. And the younger H6810 , she H1931 also H1571 bore H3205 a son H1121 , and called H7121 his name H8034 Ben H1151 -ammi : the same H1931 is the father H1 of the children H1121 of Ammon H5983 unto H5704 this day H3117 .
