Exegesis
Vayomer {וַיֹּאמֶר | wayyōʾmer} ‘and he said’ introduces the imperatives kumu {קוּמוּ | qûmû} ‘get up’ and tse'u {צְּאוּ | ṣəʾû} ‘go out’, forming an urgent exhortation.
In context — Genesis 19:14
And Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, those who had taken his daughters, and said, “Get up, go out from this place, because the LORD is about to destroy the city.” But to his sons-in-law he seemed like one joking.
