So the men aseized his hand and the hand of his wife and the hands of his two daughters, for bthe compassion of the Lord was upon him; and they brought him out, and put him outside the city.When they had brought them outside, one said, "aEscape for your life! bDo not look behind you, and do not stay anywhere in the cvalley; escape to dthe mountains, or you will be swept away."
