Genesis 19:15

19:15 At dawn the angels hurried Lot along, saying, “Get going! Take your wife and your two daughters who are here, or else you will be destroyed when the city is judged!”

Esther 4:16

4:16 “Go, assemble all the Jews who are found in Susa and fast in my behalf. Don’t eat and don’t drink for three days, night or day. My female attendants and I will also fast in the same way. Afterward I will go to the king, even though it violates the law. If I perish, I perish!”


tn Heb “When dawn came up.”

tn Heb “who are found.” The wording might imply he had other daughters living in the city, but the text does not explicitly state this.

tn Or “with the iniquity [i.e., punishment] of the city” (cf. NASB, NRSV).

tn Heb “I and my female attendants.” The translation reverses the order for stylistic reasons.

tn Heb “which is not according to the law” (so KJV, NASB); NAB “contrary to the law.”
