Genesis 19:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ When they had reached a place outside the city, one of the angels said, ‘Now run! Your lives are in danger. Do not look behind you! Do not stop anywhere in this valley. Run up into the mountains or you will die.’ ¹⁸ But Lot said, ‘No! Please, my lords, I cannot do that! ¹⁹ I am your humble servant and you have been very kind to me. You have saved my life. But I cannot run away into the mountains. If I try to do that, this punishment will catch me before I reach there. Then I will surely die.
