Genesis 19:19
Thomson 1808
since Thy servant hath found favour in Thy sight and Thou hast magnified Thy kindness in what Thou dost for me to save my life. I cannot escape to the mountains. Peradventure the calamity may overtake me and I shall die.
Brenton 1851
since thy servant has found mercy before thee, and thou hast magnified thy righteousness, in what thou doest towards me that my soul may live,—but I shall not be able to escape to the mountain, lest perhaps the calamity overtake me and I die.
Greek · Brenton
Κύριε, ἐπειδὴ εὗρεν ὁ παῖς σου ἔλεος ἐναντίον σου, καὶ ἐμεγάλυνας τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου, ὃ ποιεῖς ἐπʼ ἐμὲ, τοῦ ζῆν τὴν ψυχήν μου· ἐγὼ δὲ οὐ δυνήσομαι διασωθῆναι εἰς τὸ ὄρος, μή ποτε καταλάβῃ με τὰ κακὰ, καὶ ἀποθάνω.
