La Biblia de las Americas
Mientras ellos se alegraban, he aquí, los hombres de la ciudad, hombres perversos, rodearon la casa; y golpeando la puerta, hablaron al dueño de la casa, al anciano, diciendo: Saca al hombre que entró en tu casa para que tengamos relaciones con él.
La Biblia Reina-Valera

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Now as they were making their hearts merry,.... With a glass of wine after supper, and conversing together in a cheerful manner about their country and friends:

behold, the men of the city, certain sons of Belial; very wicked, lawless, ungovernable, worthless, and unprofitable creatures, men under the influence of Satan, and their own lusts:

beset the house round about: that none might escape out of it, especially the Levite, his wife and servant:

and beat at the door; to get entrance, either by those within opening to them, or by breaking it open:

and spake to the master of the house, the old man; who, upon this noise and clamour made, came to the door, to inquire what was the meaning of all this: to whom they replied, saying,

bring forth the man that came into thy house, that we may know him; not what manner of person he was, of what country and profession, whither he was going, and what business he had here; but that they might have carnal knowledge of him in an unnatural way, or commit that sin with him which is commonly called sodomy; and the men of Sodom expressed their lust by the same word, Genesis 19:5.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Judges 19:22. Sons of Belial — Profligate fellows. Deuteronomy 13:13.

That we may know him. — See Genesis 19:5. These were genuine sodomites as to their practice; sons of Belial, rascals and miscreants of the deepest dye; worse than brutes, being a compound of beast and devil inseparably blended.
