Yaratılış 19

¹İki melek akşamleyin Sodom'a geldi; Lut ise Sodom kapısının yanında oturuyordu. Lut onları görünce karşılamak için ayağa kalktı ve yüzüyle yere doğru eğilerek hürmet etti.

²Ve dedi ki: "İşte efendilerim, lütfen kulunuzun evine uğrayın, geceyi orada geçirin ve ayaklarınızı yıkayın; sabah erkenden kalkıp kendi yolunuza gidersiniz." Onlar ise, "Hayır, aksine meydanda konaklayacağız" dediler.

³Ancak Lut onlara çok ısrar edip zorladı; bunun üzerine ona yönelip evine girdiler. Lut onlara bir ziyafet hazırladı, mayasız ekmekler pişirdi ve yediler.

⁴Onlar henüz uyumadan önce, kentin adamları olan Sodomlular, gençten yaşlıya kadar bütün halk hep birlikte evi kuşattı.

⁵Lut'a seslenerek ona şöyle dediler: "Bu gece senin yanına girmiş olan adamlar nerede? Onları bize dışarı çıkar da onlarla ilişki kuralım."

⁶Lut dışarı çıkıp kapı önüne geldi ve arkasından kapıyı hafifçe çekti.

⁷Onlara, "Kardeşlerim, yalvarırım asla böyle bir kötülük yapmayın" dedi.

⁸"Bakın, erkek tanımamış iki kızım var; onları size dışarı çıkarayım, onlara dilediğinizi yapın. Yeter ki bu adamlara bir kötülük dokunmasın, çünkü onlar benim çatımın kirişleri altına sığındılar."

⁹Onlar ise, "Uzak dur oradan!" dediler, "Buraya yabancı olarak yerleşmeye geldin, şimdi bir de başımıza yargıç mı kesiliyorsun? Şimdi sana onlardan daha beterini yaparız." Böylece Lut'u şiddetle sıkıştırdılar ve kapıyı kırmak için yaklaştılar.

¹⁰Ama içerideki adamlar ellerini uzatıp Lut'u kendilerine doğru evin içine çektiler ve evin kapısını kapattılar.

¹¹Evin kapısında bulunan adamları ise, küçükten büyüğe kadar göremezlikle vurdular; öyle ki, adamlar kapıyı aramaktan bitkin düştüler.

¹²Adamlar Lut'a dediler ki: "Burada senin başka kimin var? Damatların, oğulların, kızların ya da bu kentte sana ait başka kim varsa, hepsini bu yerden çıkar.

¹³Çünkü biz bu yeri yok ediyoruz; zira onların feryadı Rab'bin önünde yükseldi ve Rab bizi burayı tamamen silip yok etmeye gönderdi."

¹⁴Lut dışarı çıkıp kızlarını almış olan damatlarıyla konuştu ve "Kalkın, bu yerden çıkın; çünkü Rab bu kenti yok ediyor" dedi. Fakat damatlarının gözünde o alay ediyor gibi göründü.

¹⁵Şafak vakti ağarırken melekler Lut'u acele ettirerek, "Kalk, karını ve yanında olan iki kızını al da git; yoksa kentin yasasızlıkları yüzünden sen de birlikte yok olup gidersin" dediler.

¹⁶Onlar dehşet içinde kalıp duraksayınca, Rab'bin ona olan merhameti sayesinde, melekler Lut'un, karısının ve iki kızının ellerinden tuttular ve onları dışarı çıkarıp kentin dışına bıraktılar.

¹⁷Onları dışarı çıkardıklarında meleklerden biri, "Canını kurtarmak için kaç! Arkana bakma ve bu ovanın hiçbir yerinde durma; yok olup gitmemek için dağa kaçıp kendini kurtar!" dedi.

¹⁸Lut onlara, "Yalvarırım, ey Efendim, öyle olmasın" dedi,

¹⁹"İşte, kulun senin gözünde lütuf buldu ve canımı yaşatmakla bana gösterdiğin doğruluğunu yücelttin. Ama ben dağa kadar kaçamam; korkarım ki bu felaketler bana yetişir de ölürüm.

²⁰Bak, şurada kaçabileceğim yakın bir kent var, hem de küçücüktür; oraya kaçıp kurtulayım. Zaten küçük bir yer değil mi? Böylece canım senin sayende sağ kalır."

²¹Melek ona, "İşte, bu sözün üzerine senin yüzünü yücelttim ve bahsettiğin o kenti yıkmayacağım" dedi.

²²"Acele et, oraya kaçıp kurtul; çünkü sen oraya varıncaya kadar hiçbir şey yapamam." Bu yüzden o kentin adına Segor dendi.

²³Lut Segor'a girdiğinde güneş yeryüzünde doğmuştu.

²⁴Ve Rab, Sodom ve Gomora üzerine gökten, Rab'bin katından kükürt ve ateş yağdırdı.

²⁵Bu kentleri, bütün ovayı, kentlerde yaşayanların hepsini ve topraktan filizlenen her şeyi yerle bir etti.

²⁶Ancak Lut'un karısı arkasına baktı ve bir tuz sütunu oldu.

²⁷İbrahim sabah erkenden kalkıp daha önce Rab'bin huzurunda durduğu yere gitti.

²⁸Sodom ve Gomora'ya ve bütün ova ülkesine doğru baktı; bir de ne görsün, topraktan sanki bir fırının dumanı gibi bir alev yükseliyordu.

²⁹Tanrı ovanın bütün kentlerini yok ederken İbrahim'i hatırladı ve Lut'un içlerinde yaşadığı kentleri yerle bir ederken, Lut'u bu yıkımın ortasından çıkarıp kurtardı.

³⁰Lut Segor'dan çıkıp dağa yerleşti; iki kızı da yanındaydı, çünkü Segor'da yaşamaktan korkuyordu. Böylece o ve iki kızı bir mağarada yaşamaya başladılar.

³¹Büyük kız küçüğüne dedi ki: "Babamız yaşlandı ve bütün yeryüzünün adetine uygun düştüğü gibi, yanımıza gelecek yeryüzünde hiçbir erkek yok.

³²Gel, babamıza şarap içirelim ve soyumuzu babamız aracılığıyla sürdürmek için onunla yatalım."

³³O gece babalarına şarap içirdiler; büyük kız içeri girip babasıyla yattı. Babası ise onun ne zaman yatıp ne zaman kalktığının farkına varmadı.

³⁴Ertesi gün büyük kız küçüğüne, "İşte, dün gece babamla yattım" dedi, "Bu gece de ona şarap içirelim; sen de içeri gir, onunla yat. Böylece babamız aracılığıyla soyumuzu sürdürürüz."

³⁵O gece de babalarına şarap içirdiler ve küçük kız içeri girip onunla yattı; babası onun ne zaman yatıp ne zaman kalktığının farkına varmadı.

³⁶Böylece Lut'un iki kızı da babalarından hamile kaldı.

³⁷Büyük kız bir oğul doğurdu ve "Babamdan" anlamına gelen Moab adını verdi. O, bugünkü Moablıların atasıdır.

³⁸Küçük kız da bir oğul doğurdu ve "Soyumun oğlu" anlamına gelen Amman adını verdi. O da bugünkü Ammanlıların atasıdır.

¹ΗΛΘΟΝ δὲ οἱ δύο ἄγγελοι εἰς Σόδομα ἑσπέρας· Λὼτ δὲ ἐκάθητο παρὰ τὴν πύλην Σοδόμων. ἰδὼν δὲ Λώτ, ἐξανέστη εἰς συνάντησιν αὐτοῖς καὶ προσεκύνησε τῷ προσώπῳ ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν.

²καὶ εἶπεν· ἰδοὺ κύριοι, ἐκκλίνατε εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ παιδὸς ὑμῶν καὶ καταλύσατε καὶ νίψασθε τοὺς πόδας ὑμῶν, καὶ ὀρθρίσαντες ἀπελεύσεσθε εἰς τὴν ὁδὸν ὑμῶν. καὶ εἶπαν· οὐχί, ἀλλ᾿ ἐν τῇ πλατείᾳ καταλύσομεν.

³καὶ κατεβιάζετο αὐτούς, καὶ ἐξέκλιναν πρὸς αὐτὸν καὶ εἰσῆλθον εἰς τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἐποίησεν αὐτοῖς πότον, καὶ ἀζύμους ἔπεψεν αὐτοῖς, καὶ ἔφαγον.

⁴πρὸ τοῦ κοιμηθῆναι δέ, οἱ ἄνδρες τῆς πόλεως οἱ Σοδομῖται περικύκλωσαν τὴν οἰκίαν ἀπὸ νεανίσκου ἕως πρεσβυτέρου, ἅπας ὁ λαὸς ἅμα.

⁵καὶ ἐξεκαλοῦντο τὸν Λὼτ καὶ ἔλεγον πρὸς αὐτόν· ποῦ εἰσιν οἱ ἄνδρες οἱ εἰσελθόντες πρὸς σὲ τὴν νύκτα; ἐξάγαγε αὐτοὺς πρὸς ἡμᾶς, ἵνα συγγενώμεθα αὐτοῖς.

⁶ἐξῆλθε δὲ Λὼτ πρὸς αὐτοὺς πρὸς τὸ πρόθυρον, τὴν δὲ θύραν προσέῳξεν ὀπίσω αὐτοῦ.

⁷εἶπε δὲ πρὸς αὐτούς· μηδαμῶς ἀδελφοί, μὴ πονηρεύσησθε.

⁸εἰσὶ δέ μοι δύο θυγατέρες, αἳ οὐκ ἔγνωσαν ἄνδρα· ἐξάξω αὐτὰς πρὸς ὑμᾶς, καὶ χρᾶσθε αὐταῖς, καθὰ ἂν ἀρέσκῃ ὑμῖν· μόνον εἰς τοὺς ἄνδρας τούτους μὴ ποιήσητε ἄδικον, οὗ εἵνεκεν εἰσῆλθον ὑπὸ τὴν σκέπην τῶν δοκῶν μου.

⁹εἶπαν δὲ αὐτῷ· ἀπόστα ἐκεῖ. εἰσῆλθες παροικεῖν· μὴ καὶ κρίσιν κρίνειν; νῦν οὖν σὲ κακώσωμεν μᾶλλον ἢ ἐκείνους. καὶ παρεβιάζοντο τὸν ἄνδρα τὸν Λὼτ σφόδρα. καὶ ἤγγισαν συντρίψαι τὴν θύραν.

¹⁰ἐκτείναντες δὲ οἱ ἄνδρες τὰς χεῖρας εἰσεσπάσαντο τὸν Λὼτ πρὸς ἑαυτοὺς εἰς τὸν οἶκον, καὶ τὴν θύραν τοῦ οἴκου ἀπέκλεισαν·

¹¹τοὺς δὲ ἄνδρας τοὺς ὄντας ἐπὶ τῆς θύρας τοῦ οἴκου ἐπάταξαν ἐν ἀορασίᾳ ἀπὸ μικροῦ ἕως μεγάλου, καὶ παρελύθησαν ζητοῦντες τὴν θύραν.

¹²Εἶπαν δὲ οἱ ἄνδρες πρὸς Λώτ· εἰσί σοι ὧδε γαμβροὶ ἢ υἱοὶ ἢ θυγατέρες; ἢ εἴτις σοι ἄλλος ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ πόλει, ἐξάγαγε ἐκ τοῦ τόπου τούτου·

¹³ὅτι ἡμεῖς ἀπόλλυμεν τὸν τόπον τοῦτον, ὅτι ὑψώθη ἡ κραυγὴ αὐτῶν ἔναντι Κυρίου, καὶ ἀπέστειλεν ἡμᾶς Κύριος ἐκτρίψαι αὐτήν.

¹⁴ἐξῆλθε δὲ Λὼτ καὶ ἐλάλησε πρὸς τοὺς γαμβροὺς αὐτοῦ τοὺς εἰληφότας τὰς θυγατέρας αὐτοῦ καὶ εἶπεν· ἀνάστητε καὶ ἐξέλθετε ἐκ τοῦ τόπου τούτου, ὅτι ἐκτρίβει Κύριος τὴν πόλιν. ἔδοξε δὲ γελοιάζειν ἐναντίον τῶν γαμβρῶν αὐτοῦ.

¹⁵ἡνίκα δὲ ὄρθρος ἐγίνετο, ἐσπούδαζον οἱ ἄγγελοι τὸν Λὼτ λέγοντες· ἀναστὰς λάβε τὴν γυναῖκά σου καὶ τὰς δύο θυγατέρας σου, ἃς ἔχεις, καὶ ἔξελθε, ἵνα μὴ καὶ σὺ συναπόλῃ ταῖς ἀνομίαις τῆς πόλεως.

¹⁶καὶ ἐταράχθησαν· καὶ ἐκράτησαν οἱ ἄγγελοι τῆς χειρὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τῆς χειρὸς τῆς γυναικὸς αὐτοῦ καὶ τῶν χειρῶν τῶν δύο θυγατέρων αὐτοῦ, ἐν τῷ φείσασθαι Κύριον αὐτοῦ.

¹⁷καὶ ἐγένετο, ἡνίκα ἐξήγαγον αὐτοὺς ἔξω καὶ εἶπαν· σῴζων σῷζε τὴν σεαυτοῦ ψυχήν· μὴ περιβλέψῃ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω, μηδὲ στῇς ἐν πάσῃ τῇ περιχώρῳ· εἰς τὸ ὄρος σῴζου, μήποτε συμπαραληφθῇς.

¹⁸εἶπε δὲ Λὼτ πρὸς αὐτούς· δέομαι κύριε,

¹⁹ἐπειδὴ εὗρεν ὁ παῖς σου ἔλεος ἐναντίον σου καὶ ἐμεγάλυνας τὴν δικαιοσύνην σου, ὃ ποιεῖς ἐπ᾿ ἐμὲ τοῦ ζῆν τὴν ψυχήν μου, ἐγὼ δὲ οὐ δυνήσομαι διασωθῆναι εἰς τὸ ὄρος, μήποτε καταλάβῃ με τὰ κακὰ καὶ ἀποθάνω.

²⁰ἰδοὺ ἡ πόλις αὕτη ἐγγὺς τοῦ καταφυγεῖν με ἐκεῖ, ἥ ἐστι μικρά, καὶ ἐκεῖ διασωθήσομαι· οὐ μικρά ἐστι; καὶ ζήσεται ἡ ψυχή μου ἕνεκέν σου.

²¹καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῷ· ἰδοὺ ἐθαύμασά σου τὸ πρόσωπον καὶ ἐπὶ τῷ ρήματι τούτῳ τοῦ μὴ καταστρέψαι τὴν πόλιν, περὶ ἧς ἐλάλησας·

²²σπεῦσον οὖν τοῦ σωθῆναι ἐκεῖ· οὐ γὰρ δυνήσομαι ποιῆσαι πρᾶγμα, ἕως τοῦ ἐλθεῖν σε ἐκεῖ. διὰ τοῦτο ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα τῆς πόλεως ἐκείνης Σηγώρ.

²³ὁ ἥλιος ἐξῆλθεν ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν, καὶ Λὼτ εἰσῆλθεν εἰς Σηγώρ,

²⁴καὶ Κύριος ἔβρεξεν ἐπὶ Σόδομα καὶ Γόμορρα θεῖον, καὶ πῦρ παρὰ Κυρίου ἐξ οὐρανοῦ

²⁵καὶ κατέστρεψε τὰς πόλεις ταύτας καὶ πᾶσαν τὴν περίχωρον καὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας ἐν ταῖς πόλεσι καὶ τὰ ἀνατέλλοντα ἐκ τῆς γῆς.

²⁶καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἡ γυνὴ αὐτοῦ εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω καὶ ἐγένετο στήλη ἁλός.

²⁷῎Ωρθρισε δὲ ῾Αβραὰμ τῷ πρωῒ εἰς τὸν τόπον, οὗ εἱστήκει ἐναντίον Κυρίου.

²⁸καὶ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ πρόσωπον Σοδόμων καὶ Γομόρρας καὶ ἐπὶ πρόσωπον τῆς περιχώρου καὶ εἶδε, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἀνέβαινε φλὸξ ἐκ τῆς γῆς, ὡσεὶ ἀτμὶς καμίνου.

²⁹καὶ ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ἐκτρίψαι Κύριον πάσας τὰς πόλεις τῆς περιοίκου, ἐμνήσθη ὁ Θεὸς τοῦ ῾Αβραὰμ καὶ ἐξαπέστειλε τὸν Λὼτ ἐκ μέσου τῆς καταστροφῆς, ἐν τῷ καταστρέψαι Κύριον τὰς πόλεις, ἐν αἷς κατῴκει ἐν αὐταῖς Λώτ.

³⁰᾿Ανέβη δὲ Λὼτ ἐκ Σηγὼρ καὶ ἐκάθητο ἐν τῷ ὄρει αὐτὸς καὶ αἱ δύο θυγατέρες αὐτοῦ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ· ἐφοβήθη γὰρ κατοικῆσαι ἐν Σηγώρ. καὶ κατῴκησεν ἐν τῷ σπηλαίῳ, αὐτὸς καὶ αἱ δύο θυγατέρες αὐτοῦ μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ.

³¹εἶπε δὲ ἡ πρεσβυτέρα πρὸς τὴν νεωτέραν· ὁ πατὴρ ἡμῶν πρεσβύτερος, καὶ οὐδείς ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς, ὃς εἰσελεύσεται πρὸς ἡμᾶς, ὡς καθήκει πάσῃ τῇ γῇ·

³²δεῦρο καὶ ποτίσωμεν τὸν πατέρα ἡμῶν οἶνον καὶ κοιμηθῶμεν μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐξαναστήσωμεν ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν σπέρμα.

³³ἐπότισαν δὲ τὸν πατέρα αὐτῶν οἶνον ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ εἰσελθοῦσα ἡ πρεσβυτέρα ἐκοιμήθη μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ, καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει ἐν τῷ κοιμηθῆναι αὐτὸν καὶ ἐν τῷ ἀναστῆναι.

³⁴ἐγένετο δὲ ἐν τῇ ἐπαύριον καὶ εἶπεν ἡ πρεσβυτέρα πρὸς τὴν νεωτέραν· ἰδοὺ ἐκοιμήθην χθὲς μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν· ποτίσωμεν αὐτὸν οἶνον καὶ ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ταύτῃ, καὶ εἰσελθοῦσα κοιμήθητι μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἐξαναστήσωμεν ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς ἡμῶν σπέρμα.

³⁵ἐπότισαν δὲ καὶ ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ἐκείνῃ τὸν πατέρα αὐτῶν οἶνον, καὶ εἰσελθοῦσα ἡ νεωτέρα ἐκοιμήθη μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῆς, καὶ οὐκ ᾔδει ἐν τῷ κοιμηθῆναι αὐτὸν καὶ ἀναστῆναι.

³⁶καὶ συνέλαβον αἱ δύο θυγατέρες Λὼτ ἐκ τοῦ πατρὸς αὐτῶν.

³⁷καὶ ἔτεκεν ἡ πρεσβυτέρα υἱὸν καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ Μωὰβ λέγουσα· ἐκ τοῦ πατρός μου· οὗτος πατὴρ Μωαβιτῶν ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

³⁸ἔτεκε δὲ καὶ ἡ νεωτέρα υἱὸν καὶ ἐκάλεσε τὸ ὄνομα αὐτοῦ ᾿Αμμάν, λέγουσα· υἱὸς γένους μου· οὗτος πατὴρ ᾿Αμμανιτῶν ἕως τῆς σήμερον ἡμέρας.

¹AND the two angels came to Sodom at evening. And Lot sat by the gate of Sodom, and Lot having seen them, rose up to meet them, and he worshipped with his face to the ground, and said,

²Lo! [my] lords, turn aside to the house of your servant, and rest from your journey, and wash your feet, and having risen early in the morning ye shall depart on your journey. And they said, Nay, but we will lodge in the street.

³And he constrained them, and they turned aside to him, and they entered into his house, and he made a feast for them, and baked unleavened cakes for them, and they did eat.

⁴But before they went to sleep, the men of the city, the Sodomites, compassed the house, both young and old, all the people together.

⁵And they called out Lot, and said to him, Where are the men that went in to thee this night? bring them out to us that we may be with them.

⁶And Lot went out to them to the porch, and he shut the door after him,

⁷and said to them, By no means, brethren, do not act villainously.

⁸But I have two daughters, who have not known a man. I will bring them out to you, and do ye use them as it may please you, only do not injury to these men, to avoid which they came under the shelter of my roof.

⁹And they said to him, Stand back there, thou camest in to sojourn, was it also to judge? Now then we would harm thee more than them. And they pressed hard on the man, even Lot, and they drew nigh to break the door.

¹⁰And the men stretched forth their hands and drew Lot in to them into the house, and shut the door of the house.

¹¹And they smote the men that were at the door of the house with blindness, both small and great, and they were wearied with seeking the door.

¹²And the men said to Lot, Hast thou here sons-in-law, or sons or daughters, or if thou hast any other friend in the city, bring them out of this place.

¹³For we are going to destroy this place; for their cry has been raised up before the Lord, and the Lord has sent us to destroy it.

¹⁴And Lot went out, and spoke to his sons-in-law who had married his daughters, and said, Rise up, and depart out of this place, for the Lord is about to destroy the city; but he seemed to be speaking absurdly before his sons-in-law.

¹⁵But when it was morning, the angels hastened Lot, saying, Arise and take thy wife, and thy two daughters whom thou hast, and go forth; lest thou also be destroyed with the iniquities of the city.

¹⁶And they were troubled, and the angels laid hold on his hand, and the hand of his wife, and the hands of his two daughters, in that the Lord spared him.

¹⁷And it came to pass when they brought them out, that they said, Save thine own life by all means; look not round to that which is behind, nor stay in all the country round about, escape to the mountain, lest perhaps thou be overtaken together with them.

¹⁸And Lot said to them, I pray, Lord,

¹⁹since thy servant has found mercy before thee, and thou hast magnified thy righteousness, in what thou doest towards me that my soul may live,-- but I shall not be able to escape to the mountain, lest perhaps the calamity overtake me and I die.

²⁰Behold this city is near for me to escape thither, which is a small one, and there shall I be preserved, is it not little? and my soul shall live because of thee.

²¹And he said to him, Behold, I have had respect to thee also about this thing, that I should not overthrow the city about which thou hast spoken.

²²Hasten therefore to escape thither, for I shall not be able to do anything until thou art come thither; therefore he called the name of that city, Segor.

²³The sun was risen upon the earth, when Lot entered into Segor.

²⁴And the Lord rained on Sodom and Gomorrha brimstone and fire from the Lord out of heaven.

²⁵And he overthrew these cities, and all the country round about, and all that dwelt in the cities, and the plants springing out of the ground.

²⁶And his wife looked back, and she became a pillar of salt.

²⁷And Abraam rose up early to go to the place, where he had stood before the Lord.

²⁸And he looked towards Sodom and Gomorrha, and towards the surrounding country, and saw, and behold a flame went up from the earth, as the smoke of a furnace.

²⁹And it came to pass that when God destroyed all the cities of the region round about, God remembered Abraam, and sent Lot out of the midst of the overthrow, when the Lord overthrew those cities in which Lot dwelt.

³⁰And Lot went up out of Segor, and dwelt in the mountain, he and his two daughters with him, for he feared to dwell 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 one on the earth who shall come in to us, as it is fit in all the earth.

³²Come and let us make our father drink wine, and let us sleep with him, and let us raise up seed from our father.

³³So they made their father drink wine in that night, and the elder went in and lay with her father that night, and he knew not when he slept and when he rose up.

³⁴And it came to pass on the morrow, that the elder said to the younger, Behold, I slept yesternight with our father, let us make him drink wine in this night also, and do thou go in and sleep with him, and let us raise up seed of our father.

³⁵So they made their father drink wine in that night also, and the younger went in and slept with her father, and he knew not when he slept, nor when he arose.

³⁶And the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.

³⁷And the elder bore a son and called his name Moab, saying, [He is] of my father. This is the father of the Moabites to this present day.

³⁸And the younger also bore a son, and called his name Amman, saying, The son of my family. This is the father of the Ammanites to this present day.
