Genesis 19:23-28

23Lot reached the village just as the sun was rising over the horizon.

24Then the Lord rained down fire and burning sulfur from the sky on Sodom and Gomorrah.

25He utterly destroyed them, along with the other cities and villages of the plain, wiping out all the people and every bit of vegetation.

26But Lot’s wife looked back as she was following behind him, and she turned into a pillar of salt.

27Abraham got up early that morning and hurried out to the place where he had stood in the Lord’s presence.

28He looked out across the plain toward Sodom and Gomorrah and watched as columns of smoke rose from the cities like smoke from a furnace.
