³⁰And Lot went up out of Segor, and abode in the mountain, and his two daughters with him (for he was afraid to stay in Segor) and he dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters with him.

³¹And the elder said to the younger: Our father is old, and there is no man left on the earth, to come in unto us after the manner of the whole earth.

³²Come, let us make him drunk with wine, and let us lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

³³And they made their father drink wine that night: and the elder went in, and lay with her father: but he perceived not, neither when his daughter lay down, nor when she rose up.

³⁴And the next day the elder said to the younger: Behold I lay last night with my father, let us make him drink wine also tonight, and thou shalt lie with him, that we may save seed of our father.

³⁵They made their father drink wine that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and lay with him: and neither then did he perceive when she lay down, nor when she rose up.

³⁶So the two daughters of Lot were with child by their father.

³⁷And the elder bore a son, and she called his name Moab: he is the father of the Moabites unto this day.

³⁸The younger also bore a son, and she called his name Ammon; that is, the son of my people: he is the father of the Ammonites unto this day.
