Genesis 19:34-38 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

34. Likewise, the next day, the elder said to the younger: "Behold, yesterday I slept with my father, let us give him wine to drink yet again this night, and you will sleep with him, so that we may save offspring from our father."

35. And then they gave their father wine to drink that night also, and the younger daughter went in, and slept with him. And not even then did he perceive when she lay down, or when she rose up.

36. Therefore, the two daughters of Lot conceived by their father.

37. And the elder gave birth to a son, and she called his name Moab. He is the father of the Moabites, even to the present day.

38. Likewise, the younger gave birth to a son, and she called his name Ammon, that is, 'the son of my people.' He is the father of the Ammonites, even today.
