⁶ if by ^(A)turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to ashes he condemned them to extinction, ^(B)making them an example of ^(C)what is going to happen to the ungodly;^[a]

⁷ just as ^(A)Sodom and Gomorrah and ^(B)the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and ^(C)pursued unnatural desire,^[a] serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire.

¹⁰ and ^(A)the earth opened its mouth and swallowed them up together with Korah, when that company died, when the fire devoured 250 men, and ^(B)they became a warning.

²⁸ Likewise, just as it was in the days of ^(A)Lot—they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building, ^29 (B)but on the day when Lot went out from Sodom, fire and sulfur rained from heaven and destroyed them all— ³⁰ so will it be ^(C)on the day when the Son of Man is revealed.

²³ the whole land burned out with brimstone and ^(A)salt, nothing sown and nothing growing, where no plant can sprout, ^(B)an overthrow like that of Sodom and Gomorrah, ^(C)Admah, and Zeboiim, which the Lord overthrew in his anger and wrath—

²⁴ Then ^(A)the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrah sulfur and fire from the Lord out of heaven. ²⁵ And he overthrew those cities, and all the valley, and all the inhabitants of the cities, and what grew on the ground.

¹¹ Now these things happened to them as an example, but ^(A)they were written down for our instruction, ^(B)on whom the end of the ages has come.

^15 (A)to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have ^(B)committed in such an ungodly way, and of all ^(C)the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.”
