Genesis 19:8

⁶ Lot went outside to meet them, shutting the door behind him.

⁷ “Please, my brothers,” he pleaded, “don’t do such a wicked thing!

Look, I have two daughters who have never slept with a man. Let me bring them to you, and you can do to them as you please. But do not do anything to these men, for they have come under the protection of my roof.”

⁹ “Get out of the way!” they replied. And they declared, “This one came here as a foreigner, and he is already acting like a judge! Now we will treat you worse than them.” And they pressed in on Lot and moved in to break down the door.

¹⁰ But the men inside reached out, pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
