01:019:019 Behold now, thy servant hath found grace in thy sight, and
thou hast magnified thy mercy, which thou hast shewed unto me in saving
my life; and I cannot escape to the mountain, lest some evil take me,
and I die:
01:019:020 Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a
little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my
soul shall live.
01:019:021 And he said unto him, See, I have accepted thee concerning
this thing also, that I will not overthrow this city, for the which thou
hast spoken.
01:019:022 Haste thee, escape thither; for I cannot do anything till
thou be come thither. Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
01:019:023 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
01:019:024 Then the LORD rained upon Sodom and upon Gomorrah brimstone
and fire from the LORD out of heaven;
01:019:025 And he overthrew those cities, and all the plain, and all the
inhabitants of the cities, and that which grew upon the ground.
01:019:026 But his wife looked back from behind him, and she became a
pillar of salt.
01:019:027 And Abraham gat up early in the morning to the place where he
stood before the LORD:
01:019:028 And he looked toward Sodom and Gomorrah, and toward all the
land of the plain, and beheld, and, lo, the smoke of the country went up
as the smoke of a furnace.
01:019:029 And it came to pass, when God destroyed the cities of the
plain, that God remembered Abraham, and sent Lot out of the midst of the
overthrow, when he overthrew the cities in the which Lot dwelt.
01:019:030 And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in the mountain, and
his two daughters with him; for he feared to dwell in Zoar: and he dwelt
in a cave, he and his two daughters.
01:019:031 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father is old,
and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner
of all the earth:
01:019:032 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with
him, that we may preserve seed of our father.
01:019:033 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the
firstborn went in, and lay with her father; and he perceived not when
she lay down, nor when she arose.
01:019:034 And it came to pass on the morrow, that the firstborn said
unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make
him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him, that
we may preserve seed of our father.
01:019:035 And they made their father drink wine that night also: and
the younger arose, and lay with him; and he perceived not when she lay
down, nor when she arose.
01:019:036 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their
father.
01:019:037 And the first born bare a son, and called his name Moab: the
same is the father of the Moabites unto this day.
01:019:038 And the younger, she also bare a son, and called his name
Benammi: the same is the father of the children of Ammon unto this day.
