Genesis 19:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 Then [a]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 [b]did eat.
4 But before they went to bed, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom compassed the house round about, from the young even to the old, [c]all the people from all quarters.
5 Who crying unto Lot said to him, Where are the men, which came to thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.
