The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah

Gen 19:23–29

19:23 The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah

23The sun had already risen by the time Lot and family reached Zoar. 24Then Yahweh rained burning sulfur down onto Sodom and Gomorrah,[ref] 25and he destroyed those cities and all their inhabitants as well, as all of the plain including all the vegetation. 26But Lot’s wife who was following him looked back and she turned into a pillar of salt.[ref]

27Meanwhile, Abraham got up early in the morning and went to the place where he had stood before Yahweh, 28and he looked down towards Sodom and Gomorrah and the land of the plain. From there he saw, wow, that smoke was rising from the land like a furnace chimney. 29So it was that when God destroyed the cities of the plain, he remembered Abraham and had Lot removed out of the middle of the destruction when he destroyed the cities that Lot had been living in.
