Please, STAY overnight.+ Here the day is settling down. Stay here overnight, and let your heart feel good.+ And tomorrow YOU people must get up early for YOUR journey, and you must go to your tent.”

22 While they were making their hearts feel good,+ look! the men of the city, mere good-for-nothing men,*+ surrounded the house,+ shoving one another against the door; and they kept saying to the old man, the owner of the house: “Bring out the man that came into your house, that we may have intercourse with him.”+
