Genesis 19:20-22

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

²⁰ Look, that city is near enough to flee to, and it is a little one. Let me escape there—is it not a little one?—and my life will be saved!’ ²¹ He said to him, ‘Very well, I grant you this favour too, and will not overthrow the city of which you have spoken. ²² Hurry, escape there, for I can do nothing until you arrive there.’ Therefore the city was called Zoar.^[a]
