"The LORDwill makethe rainof your landpowderand dust;from heavenit shall comedownon you untilyou are destroyed.
Then the LORDrainedon Sodomand Gomorrahbrimstoneand firefrom the LORDout of heaven,
Therefore,as a tongueof fireconsumesstubbleAnd drygrasscollapsesinto the flame,So their rootwill becomelike rotand their blossomblowawayas dust;For they have rejectedthe lawof the LORDof hostsAnd despisedthe wordof the HolyOneof Israel.
"I overthrewyou, as GodoverthrewSodomand Gomorrah,And you were like a firebrandsnatchedfrom a blaze;Yet you have not returnedto Me," declaresthe LORD.
"Therefore,becauseof you the skyhas withheldits dewand the earthhas withheldits produce.
"Or the angerof the LORDwill be kindledagainst you, and He will shutup the heavensso that there will be norainand the groundwill not yieldits fruit;and you will perishquicklyfrom the goodlandwhichthe LORDis givingyou.
"The LORDwill openfor you His goodstorehouse,the heavens,to giverainto your landin its seasonand to blessallthe workof your hand;and you shall lendto manynations,but you shall not borrow.
"The heavenwhichis overyour headshall be bronze,and the earthwhichis underyou, iron.
