Context
15Kunako mapambazuko, malaika wakamhimiza Loti, wakamwambia, “Fanya haraka! Mchukue mke wako na binti zako wawili walioko hapa, la sivyo utaangamizwa wakati mji utakapoadhibiwa.” 16Alipositasita, wale watu wakamshika mkono wake na mikono ya mke wake na binti zake wawili na kuwaongoza salama nje ya mji, kwa kuwa Bwana alikuwa na huruma kwao. 17Mara walipokwisha kuwatoa nje, mmoja wao akawaambia, “Mkimbie kwa usalama wenu! Msitazame nyuma, wala msisimame popote katika nchi tambarare! Kimbilieni milimani, ama sivyo mtaangamizwa!” 18Lakini Loti akawajibu, “La hasha, bwana zangu, tafadhalini! 19Mtumishi wenu amepata kibali mbele ya macho yenu, nanyi mmeonyesha wema mkubwa kwangu kwa kuokoa maisha yangu. Lakini siwezi kukimbilia milimani, janga hili litanikumba, nami nitakufa.
