Genesis 19:30-35

30Now LotH3876 wentH5927 upH5927 from ZoarH6820 with his twoH8147 daughtersH1323 and 1stayedH3427 in the 2mountainsH2022, becauseH3588 he wasH3372 afraidH3372 to stayH3427 in ZoarH6820; and he stayedH3427 in a caveH4631, he and his twoH8147 daughtersH1323.

31Then the firstbornH1067 saidH559 to the youngerH6810, “Our fatherH1 isH2204 oldH2204, and thereH369 isH369 notH369 a manH376 3on earthH776 to 45haveH935 relationsH935 withH935 us according to the customH1870 of allH3605 the earthH776.

32ComeH1980, 6let’s makeH8248 our fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196, and let’s sleepH7901 with him so that we may keepH2421 7our familyH2233 aliveH2421 throughH4480 our fatherH1.”

33So they madeH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 that nightH3915, and the firstbornH1067 wentH935 inH935 and sleptH7901 with her fatherH1; and he did not knowH3045 when she layH7901 downH7901 or gotH6965 upH6965.

34On the followingH4283 dayH4283, the firstbornH1067 saidH559 to the youngerH6810, “LookH2005, I sleptH7901 lastH570 nightH570 with my fatherH1; let’s makeH8248 him drinkH8248 wineH3196 tonightH3915 tooH1571, then you goH935 inH935 and sleepH7901 with him, so that we may keepH2421 8our familyH2233 aliveH2421 throughH4480 our fatherH1.”

35So they hadH8248 their fatherH1 drinkH8248 wineH3196 that nightH3915 tooH1571, and the youngerH6810 gotH6965 upH6965 and sleptH7901 with him; and he did not knowH3045 when she layH7901 downH7901 or gotH6965 upH6965.
