Sodom and Gomorrah Destroyed(A)

12 Then the men said to Lot, “Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city—(B)take them out of this place! 13 For we will destroy this place, because the (C)outcry against them has grown great before the face of the Lord, and (D)the Lord has sent us to destroy it.”

14 So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, (E)who had married his daughters, and said, (F)“Get up, get out of this place; for the Lord will destroy this city!” (G)But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.

14 So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who were pledged to marry[a] his daughters. He said, “Hurry and get out of this place, because the Lord is about to destroy the city!(E)” But his sons-in-law thought he was joking.(F)

16 When he hesitated, the men grasped his hand and the hands of his wife and of his two daughters(I) and led them safely out of the city, for the Lord was merciful to them.(J)
