"and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked"
— 2 Peter 2:7, World English Bible
“And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:”
“and delivered righteous Lot, sore distressed by the lascivious life of the wicked ”
“and if he rescued Lot, a righteous man in anguish over the debauched lifestyle of lawless men,”
“And delivered just Lot, oppressed by the injustice and lewd conversation of the wicked:”
“And kept safe Lot, the upright man, who was deeply troubled by the unclean life of the evil-doers”
“And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked:”
For if God didn't spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness, to be reserved for judgment;
and didn't spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah with seven others, a preacher of righteousness, when he brought a flood on the world of the ungodly;
and turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly;
and delivered righteous Lot, who was very distressed by the lustful life of the wicked
(for that righteous man dwelling among them, was tormented in his righteous soul from day to day with seeing and hearing lawless deeds):
the Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment;
but chiefly those who walk after the flesh in the lust of defilement, and despise authority. Daring, self-willed, they are not afraid to speak evil of dignitaries;
