17 Let not him who is on the house-top go down to take anything out of his house:
On that day, if anyone is on the roof of the house, and his goods are in the house, let him not go down to take them away; and let him who is in the field not go back to his house. Keep in mind Lot's wife. If anyone makes an attempt to keep his life, it will be taken from him, but if anyone gives up his life, he will keep it.
Give no sleep to your eyes, or rest to them; Make yourself free, like the roe from the hand of the archer, and the bird from him who puts a net for her.
