Genesis 19:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 And he said, See my lords, I pray you turn in now into your servant’s house, and tarry all night, and (A)wash your feet, and ye shall rise up early and go your ways. Who said, Nay, but we will abide in the street all night.
3 Then [a]he pressed upon them earnestly, and they turned in to him, and came to his house, and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they [b]did eat.
4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom compassed the house round about, from the young even to the old, [c]all the people from all quarters.
