24 and the Lord sent burning sulphur down like rain on Sodom and Gomorrah.
25 He destroyed those cities and everyone who lived in them, as well as their land and the trees and grass that grew there.
26 On the way, Lot's wife looked back and was turned into a block of salt.
27 That same morning Abraham got up and went to the place where he had stood and spoken with the Lord.
28 He looked down towards Sodom and Gomorrah and saw smoke rising from all over the land—it was like a flaming furnace.
29 When God destroyed the cities of the valley where Lot lived, he remembered his promise to Abraham and saved Lot from the terrible destruction.
30 Lot was afraid to stay on in Zoar. So he took his two daughters and moved to a cave in the hill country.
