Lot melayangkan pandangannya dan melihat seluruh Lembah Yordan, bahwa seluruhnya berlimpah air — sebelum Yang Mahakekal memusnahkan Sodom dan Gomora — seperti taman Yang Mahakekal, seperti negeri Mesir, sampai ke Zoar.
Targum Jonathan
And Lot uplifted his eyes towards (the place of) fornication; and beheld all the plain of Jardena that it was altogether well watered, before the Lord in his wrath had destroyed Sedom and Amorah; a land admirable for trees, as the garden of the Lord, and for fruitage, as the land of Mizraim as thou goest up to Zoar.
