Genesis 19:12-15
American Standard Version
12 And the men said unto Lot, Hast thou here any besides? son-in-law, and thy sons, and thy daughters, and whomsoever thou hast in the city, bring them out of the place: 13 for we will destroy this place, because the cry of them is waxed great before Jehovah; and Jehovah hath sent us to destroy it. 14 And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons-in-law, who [a]married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for Jehovah will destroy the city. But he seemed unto his sons-in-law as one that mocked. 15 And when the morning arose, then the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise, take thy wife, and thy two daughters that are here, lest thou be consumed in the [b]iniquity of the city.

Genesis 19:12-15
New American Standard Bible 1995
12 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; 13 for we are about to destroy this place, because (A)their outcry has become so great before the Lord that (B)the Lord has sent us to destroy it.” 14 Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who [a]were to marry his daughters, and said, “Up, (C)get out of this place, for the Lord will destroy the city.” (D)But he appeared to his sons-in-law [b]to be jesting.
15 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 [c]punishment of the city.”
