Lot looked around and saw that the whole plain of the Jordan toward Zoar was well watered, like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt.( This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

Lot looked around. He saw that the whole Jordan River valley toward the town of Zoar had plenty of water. It was like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt. This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.

And Lot lifted up his eyes and saw that the Jordan Valley was well watered everywhere like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt, in the direction of Zoar.( This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

Lot took a long look at the fertile plains of the Jordan Valley in the direction of Zoar. The whole area was well watered everywhere, like the garden of the Lord or the beautiful land of Egypt.( This was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

Lot looked out and saw that the entire plain of the Jordan as far as Zoar was well watered everywhere like the LORD’s garden and the land of Egypt.( This was before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah.)

Lot raised his eyes and saw all the vicinity of the Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere— this was before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah— like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt going toward Zoar.

And Lot lifted his eyes and saw all the plain of Jordan, that it was well watered everywhere( before the Lord destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the Lord, like the land of Egypt as you go toward Zoar.

And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the Plain of the Jordan, that it was well watered every where, before Jehovah destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of Jehovah, like the land of Egypt, as thou goest unto Zoar.

And Lot lifted up his eyes, and beheld all the plain of Jordan, that it[ was] well watered every where, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah,[ even] as the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as thou comest unto Zoar.

Lot looked up and saw the whole region of the Jordan. He noticed that all of it was well-watered( before the LORD obliterated Sodom and Gomorrah) like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, all the way to Zoar.

the Negev, and the region from the Valley of Jericho, the City of Palms, as far as Zoar.

Then the king of Sodom, the king of Gomorrah, the king of Admah, the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela( that is, Zoar) went out and lined up for battle in the Valley of Siddim

For the Lord will comfort Zion; He will comfort all her waste places, and He will make her wilderness like Eden, and her desert like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and melodious song.

A fire destroys in front of them, and behind them a flame devours. The land in front of them is like the Garden of Eden, but behind them, it is like a desert wasteland; there is no escape from them.

waged war against Bera king of Sodom, Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, as well as the king of Bela( that is, Zoar).

The Reubenites and Gadites had a very large number of livestock. When they surveyed the lands of Jazer and Gilead, they saw that the region was a good one for livestock.So the Gadites and Reubenites came to Moses, Eleazar the priest, and the leaders of the community and said:“ The territory of Ataroth, Dibon, Jazer, Nimrah, Heshbon, Elealeh, Sebam, Nebo, and Beon,which the Lord struck down before the community of Israel, is good land for livestock, and your servants own livestock.”They said,“ If we have found favor in your sight, let this land be given to your servants as a possession. Don’t make us cross the Jordan.”But Moses asked the Gadites and Reubenites,“ Should your brothers go to war while you stay here?Why are you discouraging the Israelites from crossing into the land the Lord has given them?That’s what your fathers did when I sent them from Kadesh-barnea to see the land.After they went up as far as Eshcol Valley and saw the land, they discouraged the Israelites from entering the land the Lord had given them.So the Lord’s anger burned that day, and He swore an oath:‘ Because they did not follow Me completely, none of the men 20 years old or more who came up from Egypt will see the land I swore to give Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob—none except Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite and Joshua son of Nun, because they did follow the Lord completely.’The Lord’s anger burned against Israel, and He made them wander in the wilderness 40 years until the whole generation that had done what was evil in the Lord’s sight was gone.And here you, a brood of sinners, stand in your fathers’ place adding even more to the Lord’s burning anger against Israel.If you turn back from following Him, He will once again leave this people in the wilderness, and you will destroy all of them.”Then they approached him and said,“ We want to build sheepfolds here for our livestock and cities for our dependents.But we will arm ourselves and be ready to go ahead of the Israelites until we have brought them into their place. Meanwhile, our dependents will remain in the fortified cities because of the inhabitants of the land.We will not return to our homes until each of the Israelites has taken possession of his inheritance.Yet we will not have an inheritance with them across the Jordan and beyond, because our inheritance will be across the Jordan to the east.”Moses replied to them,“ If you do this— if you arm yourselves for battle before the Lord,and every one of your armed men crosses the Jordan before the Lord until He has driven His enemies from His presence,and the land is subdued before the Lord— afterward you may return and be free from obligation to the Lord and to Israel. And this land will belong to you as a possession before the Lord.But if you don’t do this, you will certainly sin against the Lord; be sure your sin will catch up with you.Build cities for your dependents and folds for your flocks, but do what you have promised.”The Gadites and Reubenites answered Moses,“ Your servants will do just as my lord commands.Our little children, wives, livestock, and all our animals will remain here in the cities of Gilead,but your servants are equipped for war before the Lord and will go across to the battle as my lord orders.”So Moses gave orders about them to Eleazar the priest, Joshua son of Nun, and the family leaders of the Israelite tribes.Moses told them,“ If the Gadites and Reubenites cross the Jordan with you, every man in battle formation before the Lord, and the land is subdued before you, you are to give them the land of Gilead as a possession.But if they don’t go across with you in battle formation, they must accept land in Canaan with you.”The Gadites and Reubenites replied,“ What the Lord has spoken to your servants is what we will do.We will cross over in battle formation before the Lord into the land of Canaan, but we will keep our hereditary possession across the Jordan.”So Moses gave them— the Gadites, Reubenites, and half the tribe of Manasseh son of Joseph— the kingdom of Sihon king of the Amorites and the kingdom of Og king of Bashan, the land including its cities with the territories surrounding them.The Gadites rebuilt Dibon, Ataroth, Aroer,Atroth-shophan, Jazer, Jogbehah,Beth-nimrah, and Beth-haran as fortified cities, and built sheepfolds.The Reubenites rebuilt Heshbon, Elealeh, Kiriathaim,as well as Nebo and Baal-meon( whose names were changed), and Sibmah. They gave names to the cities they rebuilt.The descendants of Machir son of Manasseh went to Gilead, captured it, and drove out the Amorites who were there.So Moses gave Gilead to the clan of Machir son of Manasseh, and they settled in it.Jair, a descendant of Manasseh, went and captured their villages, which he renamed Jair’s Villages.Nobah went and captured Kenath with its villages and called it Nobah after his own name.

The king had them cast in clay molds in the Jordan Valley between Succoth and Zarethan.

The Lord God planted a garden in Eden, in the east, and there He placed the man He had formed.The Lord God caused to grow out of the ground every tree pleasing in appearance and good for food, including the tree of life in the middle of the garden, as well as the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.A river went out from Eden to water the garden. From there it divided and became the source of four rivers.

You were in Eden, the garden of God. Every kind of precious stone covered you: carnelian, topaz, and diamond, beryl, onyx, and jasper, sapphire, turquoise and emerald. Your mountings and settings were crafted in gold; they were prepared on the day you were created.

“ There is a cry from Heshbon to Elealeh; they raise their voices as far as Jahaz— from Zoar to Horonaim and Eglath-shelishiyah— because even the waters of Nimrim have become desolate.

the sons of God saw that the daughters of mankind were beautiful, and they took any they chose as wives for themselves.

Then the woman saw that the tree was good for food and delightful to look at, and that it was desirable for obtaining wisdom. So she took some of its fruit and ate it; she also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it.

The cedars in God’s garden could not rival it; the pine trees couldn’t compare with its branches, nor could the plane trees match its boughs. No tree in the garden of God could compare with it in beauty.

As soon as the angels got them outside, one of them said,“ Run for your lives! Don’t look back and don’t stop anywhere on the plain! Run to the mountains, or you will be swept away!”But Lot said to them,“ No, my lords— please.Your servant has indeed found favor in your sight, and you have shown me great kindness by saving my life. But I can’t run to the mountains; the disaster will overtake me, and I will die.Look, this town is close enough for me to run to. It is a small place. Please let me go there— it’s only a small place, isn’t it?— so that I can survive.”And he said to him,“ All right, I’ll grant your request about this matter too and will not demolish the town you mentioned.Hurry up! Run there, for I cannot do anything until you get there.” Therefore the name of the city is Zoar.The sun had risen over the land when Lot reached Zoar.Then out of the sky the Lord rained burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah from the Lord.He demolished these cities, the entire plain, all the inhabitants of the cities, and whatever grew on the ground.But his wife looked back and became a pillar of salt.Early in the morning Abraham went to the place where he had stood before the Lord.He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah and all the land of the plain, and he saw that smoke was going up from the land like the smoke of a furnace.So it was, when God destroyed the cities of the plain, He remembered Abraham and brought Lot out of the middle of the upheaval when He demolished the cities where Lot had lived.Lot departed from Zoar and lived in the mountains along with his two daughters, because he was afraid to live in Zoar. Instead, he and his two daughters lived in a cave.

My heart cries out over Moab, whose fugitives flee as far as Zoar, to Eglath-shelishiyah; they go up the slope of Luhith weeping; they raise a cry of destruction on the road to Horonaim.

and fruitful land into salty wasteland, because of the wickedness of its inhabitants.
