2 Peter 2:7-9

New Testament for Everyone

⁷ He snatched righteous Lot out of the disaster, a man who had been deeply troubled by their shameful and unprincipled behavior. ⁸ That righteous man, you see, living in their midst, could see and hear day after day lawless deeds which tortured his righteous soul. ⁹ The Lord knows how to rescue the godly from testing, and also how to keep the unrighteous ready for the day of judgment and punishment,
