# But the men

"But Lot's two guests" or "But the two angels"

# the men reached out their hands and brought ... them and shut

Your language may need to add that the men opened the door first. AT: 'the men opened the door far enough so they could reach out their hands and pull ... them, and then they shut" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit]])

# Lot's visitors struck with blindness the men

The phrase "struck with blindness" is a metaphor; the visitors did not physically hit the men. AT: "Lot's visitors blinded the men" or "they took away their sight" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])

# both young and old

"men of all ages." This merism emphasizes that the visitors blinded all the men. This could indicate social standing rather than age. AT: "both small and great" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-merism]])
