²⁰ This town, now, is near, and it is a little one: O, let me go there (is it not a little one?) so that my life may be safe.

¹⁷⁵ Give life to my soul so that it may give you praise; and let your decisions be my support.

⁵ Put all your hope in God, not looking to your reason for support.

⁶ In all your ways give ear to him, and he will make straight your footsteps.

⁷ Put no high value on your wisdom: let the fear of the Lord be before you, and keep yourself from evil:

¹³ Say, then, that you are my sister, and so it will be well with me because of you, and my life will be kept safe on your account.

³⁰ Then Lot went up out of Zoar to the mountain, and was living there with his two daughters, for fear kept him from living in Zoar: and he and his daughters made their living-place in a hole in the rock.

³ Give ear, and come to me, take note with care, so that your souls may have life: and I will make an eternal agreement with you, even the certain mercies of David.

⁶ If the horn is sounded in the town will the people not be full of fear? will evil come on a town if the Lord has not done it?
