¹⁰ Then Lot lifted up his eyes and saw all the ^[a](A)valley of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere—this was before Yahweh ^(B)destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah—like ^(C)the garden of Yahweh, ^(D)like the land of Egypt as you go to ^(E)Zoar.

³ All these ^[a]came as allies to ^(A)the valley of Siddim (that is, ^(B)the Salt Sea).

²⁴ And Yahweh ^(A)rained on Sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Yahweh out of heaven, ²⁵ and ^(B)He overthrew those cities, and all the ^[a]valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.

²³ ‘All its land is ^(A)brimstone and salt, ^(B)a burning waste, ^[a]unsown and nothing sprouting, and no grass grows in it, like the overthrow of ^(C)Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which Yahweh overthrew in His anger and in His wrath.’
