Lot came out of Zoar and began to live in the mountain, and his two daughters with him, for he was afraid to live in Zoar. And he lived in a cave, and his two daughters were with him.
And the elder said to the younger:
“Our father is old, and there is no man on earth who would come to us according to the custom of the whole earth; Let us therefore give our father wine to drink, and sleep with him, and raise up a descendant from our father.
And they made their father drink wine that night; and the eldest went in and slept with her father that night; but he did not know when she lay down and when she got up. The next day the eldest said to the younger:
- Look, I slept with my father yesterday; Let's give him wine to drink that night too; and you go in, sleep with him, and we will raise up a tribe from our father.
And they made their father drink wine that night; and the youngest came in and slept with him; and he did not know when she lay down and when she got up.
And Lot's two daughters became pregnant by their father, and the eldest gave birth to a son, and called his name Moab, saying, “He is from my father.” He is the father of the Moabites to this day. And the youngest also gave birth to a son, and called his name Ben-Ammi, saying: “He is the son of my family.” He is the father of the Ammonites to this day.
