    LOL, I was gonna say! King James Version for the purists:

    32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father.

    33 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.

    34 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.

    35 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.

    36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.

    And they started two major lines! Good one girls!

    Somehow, this bit was left out of my Sunday school instruction. No idea why.

      Yeah, sounds more like they raped the dad. Also as another comment pointed out, I don’t recall him being king either.
