Genesis 19:34-38

34On the followingH4283 dayH4283, the firstbornH1067 saidH559 to the youngerH6810, “BeholdH2005, I layH7901 lastH570 nightH570 with my fatherH1; let us make him drinkH8248 wineH3196 tonightH3915 alsoH1571; then you goH935 in and lieH7901 with him, that we may preserveH2421 1our familyH2233 throughH4480 our fatherH1.”

35So they made their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 that nightH3915 alsoH1571, and the youngerH6810 aroseH6965 and layH7901 with him; and he did not knowH3045 when she layH7901 downH7901 or when she aroseH6965.

36Thus bothH8147 the daughtersH1323 of LotH3876 were with childH2029 by their fatherH1.

37The firstbornH1067 boreH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 2MoabH4124; he is the fatherH1 of the MoabitesH4124 to this dayH3117.

38As for the youngerH6810, she alsoH1571 boreH3205 a sonH1121, and calledH7121 his nameH8034 Ben-ammiH1151; he is the fatherH1 of the 3sonsH1121 of 4AmmonH5983 to this dayH3117.
