Genesis 19:16 Douay-Rheims

And as he lingered, they took his hand, and the hand of his wife, and of his two daughters, because the Lord spared him.

George Leo Haydock

1774–1849 Catholic

He lingered, intreating the Lord to save the city; and loath, perhaps to lose all his property, for the sake of which he had chosen that abode. — Spared him, and his wife and two daughters, for his sake. These four were all that were even tolerably just: for we find them all soon giving signs of their weakness, and of the danger to which even the best are exposed by evil communications. (Haydock)
