Genesis 19:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
19 3 Lot receiveth two Angels into his house. 4 The filthy lusts of the Sodomites. 16 Lot is delivered. 14 Sodom is destroyed. 26 Lot’s wife is made a pillar of salt. 33 Lot’s daughters lie with their father, of whom came Moab and Ammon.
1 And in the evening there came two [a]Angels to Sodom: and Lot sat at the gate of Sodom, and Lot saw them, and rose up to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face to the ground.
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 [b]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 [c]did eat.
