(Yehudah ben R. Chizkiyah and Rebbi): Hash-m judges Resha'im in Gehinom for 12 months. First He puts a hook in their mouth (lest they speak against Hash-m). Then He brings them into fire, and they say "Hoy Hoy'' (an expression of pain). Then He brings them into snow, and they say "Vai Vai'' (woe).

What is the source? "Va'Ya'aleni mi'Bor Sha'on mi'Tit ha'Yaven.'' What is Tit ha'Yaven? It is a place where they say "Hoy.''

Question: [Dor ha'Mabul] should receive their judgment, and have a share in the world to come!

Answer: [They cannot,] for "v'Letz Lo Shama Ge'arah'' (a scoffer does not heed rebuke).

The people of Sedom have no share in the world to come, and they do not see [judgment] in the world to come.

What is the source? "V'Anshei Sedom Ra'im v'Chata'im la'Shem Me'od.'' They were Ra'im and Chata'im in this world, la'Shem Me'od in the world to come. (They are not worthy to be judged and receive reward in the future.)

Alternatively, they were Ra'im to each other, Chata'im through Arayos, la'Shem through idolatry, Me'od through murder.
