Please translate this passage:
19:31 The firstborn said to the younger, "Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth.
19:32 Come, let's make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."
19:33 They made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn went in, and lay with her father. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
19:34 It came to pass on the next day, that the firstborn said to the younger, "Behold, I lay last night with my father. Let us make him drink wine again, tonight. You go in, and lie with him, that we may preserve our father's seed."
19:35 They made their father drink wine that night also. The younger arose, and lay with him. He didn't know when she lay down, nor when she arose.
19:36 Thus both of Lot's daughters were with child by their father.
To me it looks like, if the Bible is the word of God then adultery was allowed. It makes me think that if the bible came from a supreme being there seems to be a lot of mistakes that were noted since later on Thou shall not commit adultery is one of the Ten commandments. Please don't tell me its needed because later on in the bible it says the ends does not justify the means. The means of repopulating the earth by father daughter relationship was accepted. I did not see that there was a punishment for this act.
