Genesis

And the two messengers came into Sodoma [at] evening. And Lot sat by the gate of Sodoma. And seeing, Lot rose up to meet them, and he worshipped [with his] face up the ground.

And he said: "Behold, lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and rest up, and wash your feet, and rising early you may go forth into your way." And they said: "No, instead we will lodge in the street."

And he constrained them, and they turned aside towards him, and they entered into his house. And he made drinking-bout a feast for them, and he baked unleavened [cakes] for them, and they ate.

Before putting to bed, the men of the city, the Sodomites, surrounded the house, from young unto elder, all the people together.

And they called forth Lot. And they said to him: "Where are they, the men, the ones entering towards you [this] night? Lead them towards us that we may be intimate with them."

And Lot came forth towards them, to the threshold, and he shut the door behind him.

And he said to them: "By no means, brothers, should you do wickedly.

But there are two daughters to me, who have not known a man. I will lead them towards you, and you treat them as pleases you. Only to these men, you should not do unjust, because they entered under the protection of my beams."

And they said to him: "You left there to enter [here] to sojourn, and not to judge [with] judgment. Now then, to you we will inflict harm rather [than] them." And they were pressing the man Lot exceedingly, and approached to break the door.

And the men stretching out the hands, drew Lot towards themselves into the house. And they locked the door of the house.

And the men being at the door of the house were struck with inability to see, from small unto great, and they were disabled [in] seeking the door.

And the men said to Lot: "Are here in-laws to you, or sons or daughters? Or if there is any other to you in the city, you lead [them] out of this place.

For we destroy this place. For their cry was raised up high before [the] lord, and [the] lord sent us to obliterate it.

And Lot went forth, and spoke to his sons-in-law, the ones taking his daughters. And he said: "Rise up, and come forth from out of this place, for [the] lord is obliterating the city." But he seemed to be speaking absurdly before his sons-in-law.

And when dawn came, the messengers hurried Lot, saying: "In rising up, take your wife and your two daughters whom you have, and come forth, so that you should not also be destroyed in the lawlessnesses of the city."

And they were disturbed, and the messengers held his hand, and the hand of his wife, and the hands of his two daughters, in the lord sparing him.

And it came to pass when they led them outside, that they said: "By saving, save your own soul. You should not look around into the rear, nor stand in any surrounding region. Escape into the mountain, lest at any time you may be taken along with [them]."

And Lot said to them: "I beseech, lord,

since your servant found favor before you, and you magnified your righteousness, which you do upon me, that my soul may live. But I will not be able to come through safe into the mountain, lest evils overtake me and I die.

Behold: this city [is] near for me to take refuge there, which is little, and there I will be delivered. Is it not little that my soul will live because of you?"

And he said to him: "Behold: I wondered [about] your face over this saying [that] I should not eradicate the city concerning of which you spoke.

You hasten then to escape there, for I will not be able to do [the] thing until you go there. On account of this he called the name of that city, Segor.

The Helios came [up] upon the earth, and Lot entered into Segor.

And [the] lord rained upon Sodoma and Gomorra sulphur and fire from beside [the] lord, from out of heaven.

And he overthrew these cities, and all the place round about, and all the ones dwelling in the cities, and the [growing] rising from out of the ground.

And his woman looked into the rear, and she became a pillar of salt.

And Abraám rose early in the morning into the place of which he had stood before [the] lord.

And he looked upon [the] face of Sodoma and Gomorra, and upon [the] face of the place round about. And he saw. And behold: a flame ascended from out of the earth, as vapor of a furnace.

And it came to pass in the Theos obliterating all the adjacent cities, [that] the Theos remembered Abraám. And he sent out Lot from out of the middle of the overthrowing, in overthrowing the cities in which Lot dwelt in them.

And Lot came forth from out of Segor, and sat down in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he feared dwelling in Segor. And he dwelt in the cave, he and his two daughters with him.

And the elder said to the younger: "Our father [is] elder, and [there] is no one upon the land who will enter towards us, as it is fit in all the earth.

Come and we should give our father to drink wine, and we should go to bed with him, and we might raise up seed from our father."

So they gave their father to drink wine in that night. And entering, the elder went to bed with her father in that night. And he knew not of his going to bed and rising up.

And it came to pass in the next day, [that] the elder said to the younger: "Behold: I went to bed yesterday with our father. We should give him to drink wine in this night also. And entering, you go to bed with him, [that] we might raise up seed from our father."

So they gave their father wine to drink also in that night. And entering, the younger went to bed with her father. And he knew not in him going to bed and rising up.

And the two daughters of Lot conceived from their father.

And the elder bore a son and called his name Moab, saying: "[He is] from my father." This [one is the] father of [the] Moabites unto today's day.

And the younger also bore a son, and called his name Amman, saying: "[He is a] son of my family." This [one is the] father of [the] Ammanites unto today's day.
