28. He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley. He saw thick smoke rising from the land. It looked like smoke from a furnace.
29. So when God destroyed the cities of the valley, he showed concern for Abraham. He brought Lot out safely when he destroyed the cities where Lot had lived.
30. Lot and his two daughters left Zoar. They went to settle down in the mountains. Lot was afraid to stay in Zoar. So he and his daughters lived in a cave.
31. One day the older daughter spoke to the younger one. She said, "Our father is old. There aren't any other men around here to make love to, as people all over the earth do.
32. So let's get our father to drink wine. Then we can make love to him. We can use our father to continue our family line."
33. That night they got their father to drink wine. Then the older daughter went in and made love to him. He didn't know when she lay down or when she got up.
34. The next day the older daughter spoke to the younger one again. She said, "Last night I made love to my father. Let's get him to drink wine again tonight. Then you go in and make love to him. In that way, we can use our father to continue our family line."
35. So they got their father to drink wine that night also. Then the younger daughter went and made love to him. Again he didn't know when she lay down or when she got up.
36. So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father.
37. The older daughter had a son. She named him Moab. He's the father of the Moabites of today.
