﴿ قَالَ لَوْ أَنَّ لِى بِكُمْ قُوَّةً أَوْ ءَاوِىٓ إِلَىٰ رُكْنٍۢ شَدِيدٍۢ ﴾

“Exclaimed [Lot]: "Would that I had the strength to defeat you, or that I could lean upon some mightier support!"”

(He said) Lot said within himself: (Would that I had strength) physical strength and sons to help me (to resist you or had some strong support (among you)!) or that I could rely on a strong clan such that I defend myself from you.
