MEDITATION
Genesis 19:34-38
34 It happened on the next day that the firstborn said to the younger, “Indeed I lay with my father last night; let us make him drink wine tonight also, and you go in and lie with him, that we may preserve the lineage of our father.”
35 Then they made their father drink wine that night also. And the younger arose and lay with him, and he did not know when she lay down or when she arose.
36 Thus both the daughters of Lot were with child by their father.
37 The firstborn bore a son and called his name Moab; he is the father of the Moabites to this day.
38 And the younger, she also bore a son and called his name Ben-Ammi; he is the father of the people of Ammon to this day.

沉思
《创世记 19:34-38》
34第二天，大女儿对小女儿说：“我昨夜与父亲同寝，今夜我们再叫他喝酒，你可以进去与他同寝，这样我们好从父亲存留后裔。”
35 于是，那夜她们又叫父亲喝酒，小女儿起来与她父亲同寝。她几时躺下，几时起来，父亲都不知道。
36 这样，罗得的两个女儿都从她父亲怀了孕。
37 大女儿生了儿子，给他起名叫摩押，就是现今摩押人的始祖。38 小女儿也生了儿子，给他起名叫便亚米，就是现今亚扪人的始祖。
