1599 Geneva Bible
24 Then the Lord (A)rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah, brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven,
25 And overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and that grew upon the earth.
26 ¶ Now his wife behind him looked back, and she became a [a]pillar of salt.
27 ¶ And Abraham rising up early in the morning went to the place, where he had stood before the Lord,
28 And looking toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, behold, he saw the smoke of the land mounting up as the smoke of a furnace.
