ויאמרו גשה הלאה ויאמרו האחד בא לגור וישפט גם שפט עתה נריע לך מהם ויפצרו באיש בלוט מאד ויגשו לשבר הדלת

* לגור v.l. לגר

Gen 19:9 [Masoretic Text]

וַיֹּאמְר֣וּ גֶּשׁ־הָ֗לְאָה וַיֹּֽאמְרוּ֙ הָאֶחָ֤ד בָּֽא־לָגוּר֙ וַיִּשְׁפֹּ֣ט שָׁפֹ֔וט עַתָּ֕ה נָרַ֥ע לְךָ֖ מֵהֶ֑ם וַיִּפְצְר֨וּ בָאִ֤ישׁ בְּלֹוט֙ מְאֹ֔ד וַֽיִּגְּשׁ֖וּ לִשְׁבֹּ֥ר הַדָּֽלֶת׃

And they said, “Stand aside!” And they said, “This one came to sojourn, and now he acts as a judge. Now we will deal worse with you than with them.” And they pressed hard against the man, against Lot, and came near to break the door.
