OET interlinear GEN 19:24

uW Translation Notes:

וַֽ⁠יהוָ֗ה הִמְטִ֧יר עַל־סְדֹ֛ם וְ⁠עַל־עֲמֹרָ֖ה גָּפְרִ֣ית וָ⁠אֵ֑שׁ

(Some words not found in UHB: and,Yahweh he/it_had_caused_rain on/upon/above/on_account_of//he/it_went_in Şədom and,on ˊAmorāh/(Gomorrah) brimstone and,fire from,with YHWH from/more_than the=heavens )

The word brimstone refers to sulfur, which is a type of rock that is highly flammable. When it burns, it produces smoke, intense heat, and a bad smell like rotten eggs. Alternate translation: [Then Yahweh poured down burning sulfur and fire on the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah] or [Then Yahweh caused fire and burning sulfur to pour down on the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah]

Some translations omit the phrase from Yahweh since Yahweh is already mentioned earlier as the one doing this. Also, for some languages it may be better to change the order of phrases in this verse and say, “Then Yahweh caused fire and burning sulfur to fall like heavy rain from the heavens on the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah.” Alternate translation: [from himself in heaven] or [from out of the sky]
