Gen 19:15-16
As soon as it was dawn, the angels urged Lot to hasten away with his family; and when he still delayed, his heart evidently clinging to the earthly home and possessions which he was obliged to leave, they laid hold of him, with his wife and his two daughters, עליו יהוה בּחמלת, “by virtue of the sparing mercy of Jehovah (which operated) upon him,” and led him out of the city.
