Leeser(i)
18 And he said, What is the pledge which I shall give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy scarf, and thy staff that is in thy hand. And he gave them unto her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to take the pledge out of the woman’s hand; but he found her not.
21 Then he asked the men of her place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was at the cross-road on the highway? And they said, There hath been no harlot in this neighborhood.
22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place have said, There hath been no harlot in this place.
23 And Judah said, Let her keep it, lest we be put to shame; behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
