GENESIS 19: 9-15 Lot resisted the wickedness of Sodom. (compare Genesis 19: 5-10)   9 And they said unto him, Stand back. And they were angry with him.   10 And they said among themselves, This one man came in to sojourn among us, and he will needs now make himself to be a judge; now we will deal worse with him than with them.   11 Wherefore they said unto the man, We will have the men, and thy daughters also; and we will do with them as seemeth us good.   12 Now this was after the wickedness of Sodom.   13 And Lot said, Behold now, I have two daughters which have not known man; let me, I pray you, plead with my brethren that I may not bring them out unto you; and ye shall not do unto them as seemeth good in your eyes;   14 For God will not justify his servant in this thing; wherefore, let me plead with my brethren, this once only, that unto these men ye do nothing, that they may have peace in my house; for therefore came they under the shadow of my roof.   15 And they were angry with Lot and came near to break the door, but the angels of God, which were holy men, put forth their hand and pulled Lot into the house unto them, and shut the door.
