6. Lot went outside to them, closing the door behind him.
7. He said, “No, my brothers! Do not do this evil thing.
8. Look! I have two daughters. They have never slept with a man. I will give them to you. You may do anything you want with them. But please don’t do anything to these men. They have come to my house, and I must protect them.”
9. The men around the house answered, “Move out of the way!” Then they said to each other, “This man Lot came to our city as a stranger. Now he wants to tell us what to do!” They said to Lot, “We will do worse things to you than to them.” So they started pushing Lot back. They were ready to break down the door.
10. But the two men staying with Lot opened the door and pulled him back inside the house. Then they closed the door.
11. The two men struck the men outside the door with blindness. So these men, both young and old, could not find the door.
