Where Sodom appears in Scripture
וַיְהִי גְּבוּל הַֽכְּנַעֲנִי מִצִּידֹן בֹּֽאֲכָה גְרָרָה עַד-עַזָּה בֹּֽאֲכָה סְדֹמָה וַֽעֲמֹרָה וְאַדְמָה וּצְבֹיִם עַד-לָֽשַׁע׃
And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.
וַיִּשָּׂא-לוֹט אֶת-עֵינָיו וַיַּרְא אֶת-כָּל-כִּכַּר הַיַּרְדֵּן כִּי כֻלָּהּ מַשְׁקֶה לִפְנֵי׀ שַׁחֵת יְהוָה אֶת-סְדֹם וְאֶת-עֲמֹרָה כְּגַן-יְהוָה כְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם בֹּֽאֲכָה צֹֽעַר׃
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.
אַבְרָם יָשַׁב בְּאֶֽרֶץ-כְּנָעַן וְלוֹט יָשַׁב בְּעָרֵי הַכִּכָּר וַיֶּֽאֱהַל עַד-סְדֹֽם׃
Abram dwelled in the land of Canaan, and Lot dwelled in the cities of the plain, and pitched his tent toward Sodom.
וְאַנְשֵׁי סְדֹם רָעִים וְחַטָּאִים לַֽיהוָה מְאֹֽד׃
But the men of Sodom were wicked and sinners before the LORD exceedingly.
עָשׂוּ מִלְחָמָה אֶת-בֶּרַע מֶלֶךְ סְדֹם וְאֶת-בִּרְשַׁע מֶלֶךְ עֲמֹרָה שִׁנְאָב׀ מֶלֶךְ אַדְמָה וְשֶׁמְאֵבֶר מֶלֶךְ (צביים) צְבוֹיִים וּמֶלֶךְ בֶּלַע הִיא-צֹֽעַר׃
That these made war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar.
וַיֵּצֵא מֶֽלֶךְ-סְדֹם וּמֶלֶךְ עֲמֹרָה וּמֶלֶךְ אַדְמָה וּמֶלֶךְ (צביים) צְבוֹיִם וּמֶלֶךְ בֶּלַע הִוא-צֹעַר וַיַּֽעַרְכוּ אִתָּם מִלְחָמָה בְּעֵמֶק הַשִּׂדִּֽים׃
And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;
וְעֵמֶק הַשִׂדִּים בֶּֽאֱרֹת בֶּֽאֱרֹת חֵמָר וַיָּנֻסוּ מֶֽלֶךְ-סְדֹם וַֽעֲמֹרָה וַיִּפְּלוּ-שָׁמָּה וְהַנִּשְׁאָרִים הֶרָה נָּֽסוּ׃
And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain.
וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת-כָּל-רְכֻשׁ סְדֹם וַֽעֲמֹרָה וְאֶת-כָּל-אָכְלָם וַיֵּלֵֽכוּ׃
And they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went their way.
וַיִּקְחוּ אֶת-לוֹט וְאֶת-רְכֻשׁוֹ בֶּן-אֲחִי אַבְרָם וַיֵּלֵכוּ וְהוּא יֹשֵׁב בִּסְדֹֽם׃
And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his goods, and departed.
וַיֵּצֵא מֶֽלֶךְ-סְדֹם לִקְרָאתוֹ אַֽחֲרֵי שׁוּבוֹ מֵֽהַכּוֹת אֶת-כְּדָרְלָעֹמֶר וְאֶת-הַמְּלָכִים אֲשֶׁר אִתּוֹ אֶל-עֵמֶק שָׁוֵה הוּא עֵמֶק הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And the king of Sodom went out to meet him after his return from the slaughter of Chedorlaomer, and of the kings that were with him, at the valley of Shaveh, which is the king's dale.
וַיֹּאמֶר מֶֽלֶךְ-סְדֹם אֶל-אַבְרָם תֶּן-לִי הַנֶּפֶשׁ וְהָֽרְכֻשׁ קַֽח-לָֽךְ׃
And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the goods to thyself.
וַיֹּאמֶר אַבְרָם אֶל-מֶלֶךְ סְדֹם הֲרִמֹתִי יָדִי אֶל-יְהוָה אֵל עֶלְיוֹן קֹנֵה שָׁמַיִם וָאָֽרֶץ׃
And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth,
וַיָּקֻמוּ מִשָּׁם הָֽאֲנָשִׁים וַיַּשְׁקִפוּ עַל-פְּנֵי סְדֹם וְאַבְרָהָם הֹלֵךְ עִמָּם לְשַׁלְּחָֽם׃
And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה זַֽעֲקַת סְדֹם וַֽעֲמֹרָה כִּי-רָבָּה וְחַטָּאתָם כִּי כָֽבְדָה מְאֹֽד׃
And the LORD said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous;
וַיִּפְנוּ מִשָּׁם הָֽאֲנָשִׁים וַיֵּֽלְכוּ סְדֹמָה וְאַבְרָהָם עוֹדֶנּוּ עֹמֵד לִפְנֵי יְהוָֽה׃
And the men turned their faces from thence, and went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood yet before the LORD.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אִם-אֶמְצָא בִסְדֹם חֲמִשִּׁים צַדִּיקִם בְּתוֹךְ הָעִיר וְנָשָׂאתִי לְכָל-הַמָּקוֹם בַּֽעֲבוּרָֽם׃
And the LORD said, If I find in Sodom fifty righteous within the city, then I will spare all the place for their sakes.
וַיָּבֹאוּ שְׁנֵי הַמַּלְאָכִים סְדֹמָה בָּעֶרֶב וְלוֹט יֹשֵׁב בְּשַֽׁעַר-סְדֹם וַיַּרְא-לוֹט וַיָּקָם לִקְרָאתָם וַיִּשְׁתַּחוּ אַפַּיִם אָֽרְצָה׃
And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom: and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground;
טֶרֶם יִשְׁכָּבוּ וְאַנְשֵׁי הָעִיר אַנְשֵׁי סְדֹם נָסַבּוּ עַל-הַבַּיִת מִנַּעַר וְעַד-זָקֵן כָּל-הָעָם מִקָּצֶֽה׃
But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom, compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
וַֽיהוָה הִמְטִיר עַל-סְדֹם וְעַל-עֲמֹרָה גָּפְרִית וָאֵשׁ מֵאֵת יְהוָה מִן-הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃
Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
וַיַּשְׁקֵף עַל-פְּנֵי סְדֹם וַֽעֲמֹרָה וְעַֽל-כָּל-פְּנֵי אֶרֶץ הַכִּכָּר וַיַּרְא וְהִנֵּה עָלָה קִיטֹר הָאָרֶץ כְּקִיטֹר הַכִּבְשָֽׁן׃
And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up as the smoke of a furnace.
גָּפְרִית וָמֶלַח שְׂרֵפָה כָל-אַרְצָהּ לֹא תִזָּרַע וְלֹא תַצְמִחַ וְלֹֽא-יַעֲלֶה בָהּ כָּל-עֵשֶׂב כְּֽמַהְפֵּכַת סְדֹם וַֽעֲמֹרָה אַדְמָה (וצביים) וּצְבוֹיִם אֲשֶׁר הָפַךְ יְהוָה בְּאַפּוֹ וּבַֽחֲמָתֽוֹ׃
And that the whole land thereof is brimstone, and salt, and burning, that it is not sown, nor beareth, nor any grass groweth therein, like the overthrow of Sodom, and Gomorrah, Admah, and Zeboim, which the LORD overthrew in his anger, and in his wrath:
כִּֽי-מִגֶּפֶן סְדֹם גַּפְנָם וּמִשַּׁדְמֹת עֲמֹרָה עֲנָבֵמוֹ עִנְּבֵי-רוֹשׁ אַשְׁכְּלֹת מְרֹרֹת לָֽמוֹ׃
For their vine is of the vine of Sodom, and of the fields of Gomorrah: their grapes are grapes of gall, their clusters are bitter:
לוּלֵי יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת הוֹתִיר לָנוּ שָׂרִיד כִּמְעָט כִּסְדֹם הָיִינוּ לַעֲמֹרָה דָּמִֽינוּ׃
Except the LORD of hosts had left unto us a very small remnant, we should have been as Sodom, and we should have been like unto Gomorrah.
שִׁמְעוּ דְבַר-יְהוָה קְצִינֵי סְדֹם הַאֲזִינוּ תּוֹרַת אֱלֹהֵינוּ עַם עֲמֹרָֽה׃
Hear the word of the LORD, ye rulers of Sodom; give ear unto the law of our God, ye people of Gomorrah.
הַכָּרַת פְּנֵיהֶם עָנְתָה בָּם וְחַטָּאתָם כִּסְדֹם הִגִּידוּ לֹא כִחֵדוּ אוֹי לְנַפְשָׁם כִּֽי-גָמְלוּ לָהֶם רָעָֽה׃
The shew of their countenance doth witness them; against and they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
וְהָיְתָה בָבֶל צְבִי מַמְלָכוֹת תִּפְאֶרֶת גְּאוֹן כַּשְׂדִּים כְּמַהְפֵּכַת אֱלֹהִים אֶת-סְדֹם וְאֶת-עֲמֹרָֽה׃
And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
וּבִנְבִאֵי יְרוּשָׁלִַם רָאִיתִי שַׁעֲרוּרָה נָאוֹף וְהָלֹךְ בַּשֶּׁקֶר וְחִזְּקוּ יְדֵי מְרֵעִים לְבִלְתִּי-שָׁבוּ אִישׁ מֵרָֽעָתוֹ הָֽיוּ-לִי כֻלָּם כִּסְדֹם וְיֹשְׁבֶיהָ כַּעֲמֹרָֽה׃
I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness: they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.
כְּֽמַהְפֵּכַת סְדֹם וַעֲמֹרָה וּשְׁכֵנֶיהָ אָמַר יְהוָה לֹֽא-יֵשֵׁב שָׁם אִישׁ וְלֹֽא-יָגוּר בָּהּ בֶּן-אָדָֽם׃
As in the overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD, no man shall abide there, neither shall a son of man dwell in it.
כְּמַהְפֵּכַת אֱלֹהִים אֶת-סְדֹם וְאֶת-עֲמֹרָה וְאֶת-שְׁכֵנֶיהָ נְאֻם-יְהוָה לֹֽא-יֵשֵׁב שָׁם אִישׁ וְלֹֽא-יָגוּר בָּהּ בֶּן-אָדָֽם׃
As God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah and the neighbour cities thereof, saith the LORD; so shall no man abide there, neither shall any son of man dwell therein.
וַיִּגְדַּל עֲוֹן בַּת-עַמִּי מֵֽחַטַּאת סְדֹם הַֽהֲפוּכָה כְמוֹ-רָגַע וְלֹא-חָלוּ בָהּ יָדָֽיִם׃
For the punishment of the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the punishment of the sin of Sodom, that was overthrown as in a moment, and no hands stayed on her.
וַאֲחוֹתֵךְ הַגְּדוֹלָה שֹֽׁמְרוֹן הִיא וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ הַיּוֹשֶׁבֶת עַל-שְׂמֹאולֵךְ וַאֲחוֹתֵךְ הַקְּטַנָּה מִמֵּךְ הַיּוֹשֶׁבֶת מִֽימִינֵךְ סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶֽיהָ׃
And thine elder sister is Samaria, she and her daughters that dwell at thy left hand: and thy younger sister, that dwelleth at thy right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.
חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה אִם-עָֽשְׂתָה סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ הִיא וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂית אַתְּ וּבְנוֹתָֽיִךְ׃
As I live, saith the Lord GOD, Sodom thy sister hath not done, she nor her daughters, as thou hast done, thou and thy daughters.
הִנֵּה-זֶה הָיָה עֲוֹן סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ גָּאוֹן שִׂבְעַת-לֶחֶם וְשַׁלְוַת הַשְׁקֵט הָיָה לָהּ וְלִבְנוֹתֶיהָ וְיַד-עָנִי וְאֶבְיוֹן לֹא הֶחֱזִֽיקָה׃
Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
וְשַׁבְתִּי אֶת-שְׁבִיתְהֶן אֶת-שְׁביּת סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ וְאֶת-שְׁביּת שֹׁמְרוֹן וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ וּשְׁביּת שְׁבִיתַיִךְ בְּתוֹכָֽהְנָה׃
When I shall bring again their captivity, the captivity of Sodom and her daughters, and the captivity of Samaria and her daughters, then will I bring again the captivity of thy captives in the midst of them:
וַאֲחוֹתַיִךְ סְדֹם וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ תָּשֹׁבְןָ לְקַדְמָתָן וְשֹֽׁמְרוֹן וּבְנוֹתֶיהָ תָּשֹׁבְןָ לְקַדְמָתָן וְאַתְּ וּבְנוֹתַיִךְ תְּשֻׁבֶינָה לְקַדְמַתְכֶֽן׃
When thy sisters, Sodom and her daughters, shall return to their former estate, and Samaria and her daughters shall return to their former estate, then thou and thy daughters shall return to your former estate.
וְלוֹא הָֽיְתָה סְדֹם אֲחוֹתֵךְ לִשְׁמוּעָה בְּפִיךְ בְּיוֹם גְּאוֹנָֽיִךְ׃
For thy sister Sodom was not mentioned by thy mouth in the day of thy pride,
הָפַכְתִּי בָכֶם כְּמַהְפֵּכַת אֱלֹהִים אֶת-סְדֹם וְאֶת-עֲמֹרָה וַתִּהְיוּ כְּאוּד מֻצָּל מִשְּׂרֵפָה וְלֹֽא-שַׁבְתֶּם עָדַי נְאֻם-יְהוָֽה׃
I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
לָכֵן חַי-אָנִי נְאֻם יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת אֱלֹהֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל כִּֽי-מוֹאָב כִּסְדֹם תִּֽהְיֶה וּבְנֵי עַמּוֹן כַּֽעֲמֹרָה מִמְשַׁק חָרוּל וּמִכְרֵה-מֶלַח וּשְׁמָמָה עַד-עוֹלָם שְׁאֵרִית עַמִּי יְבָזּוּם וְיֶתֶר (גוי) גּוֹיִי יִנְחָלֽוּם׃
Therefore as I live, saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, Surely Moab shall be as Sodom, and the children of Ammon as Gomorrah, even the breeding of nettles, and saltpits, and a perpetual desolation: the residue of my people shall spoil them, and the remnant of my people shall possess them.
ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται γῇ Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόῤῥων ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἢ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ
Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
καὶ σύ Καπερναούμ ἡ ἕως τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ὑψωθεῖσα ἕως ᾅδου καταβιβασθήσῃ· ὅτι εἰ ἐν Σοδόμοις ἐγένοντο αἱ δυνάμεις αἱ γενόμεναι ἐν σοί ἔμειναν ἂν μέχρι τῆς σήμερον
And thou, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shalt be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works, which have been done in thee, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.
πλὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ὅτι γῇ Σοδόμων ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἢ σοί
But I say unto you, That it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment, than for thee.
καὶ ὃσοι ἂν μὴ δέξωνταί ὑμᾶς μηδὲ ἀκούσωσιν ὑμῶν ἐκπορευόμενοι ἐκεῖθεν ἐκτινάξατε τὸν χοῦν τὸν ὑποκάτω τῶν ποδῶν ὑμῶν εἰς μαρτύριον αὐτοῖς ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ἀνεκτοτερον ἔσται Σοδόμοις ἤ Γομόῤῥοις ἐν ἡμέρᾳ κρίσεως ἤ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνη
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
λέγω δὲ ὑμῖν ὅτι Σοδόμοις ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ ἀνεκτότερον ἔσται ἢ τῇ πόλει ἐκείνῃ
But I say unto you, that it shall be more tolerable in that day for Sodom, than for that city.
ᾗ δὲ ἡμέρᾳ ἐξῆλθεν Λὼτ ἀπὸ Σοδόμων ἔβρεξεν πῦρ καὶ θεῖον ἀπ' οὐρανοῦ καὶ ἀπώλεσεν ἅπαντας·
But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.
καὶ καθὼς προείρηκεν Ἠσαΐας Εἰ μὴ κύριος Σαβαὼθ ἐγκατέλιπεν ἡμῖν σπέρμα ὡς Σόδομα ἂν ἐγενήθημεν καὶ ὡς Γόμοῤῥα ἂν ὡμοιώθημεν
And as Esaias said before, Except the Lord of Sabaoth had left us a seed, we had been as Sodoma, and been made like unto Gomorrha.
καὶ πόλεις Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόῤῥας τεφρώσας καταστροφῇ κατέκρινεν ὑπόδειγμα μελλόντων ἀσεβεῖν τεθεικώς
And turning the cities into of Sodom and Gomorrha ashes condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after should live ungodly;
ὡς Σόδομα καὶ Γόμοῤῥα καὶ αἱ περὶ αὐτὰς πόλεις τὸν ὅμοιον τούτοις τρόπον ἐκπορνεύσασαι καὶ ἀπελθοῦσαι ὀπίσω σαρκὸς ἑτέρας πρόκεινται δεῖγμα πυρὸς αἰωνίου δίκην ὑπέχουσαι
Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
καὶ τὰ πτῶματα αὐτῶν ἐπὶ τῆς πλατείας πόλεως τῆς μεγάλης ἥτις καλεῖται πνευματικῶς Σόδομα καὶ Αἴγυπτος ὅπου καὶ ὁ κύριος ἡμῶν ἐσταυρώθη
And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
