Genesis 19:32

19:32 Come, let’s make our father drunk with wine so we can have sexual relations with him and preserve our family line through our father.”


tn Heb “drink wine.”

tn Heb “and we will lie down.” The cohortative with vav (ו) conjunctive is subordinated to the preceding cohortative and indicates purpose/result.

tn Or “that we may preserve.” Here the cohortative with vav (ו) conjunctive indicates their ultimate goal.

tn Heb “and we will keep alive from our father descendants.”
