H6256
And it came to pass at that time,
H3063
that Judah
H3381 [H8799]
went down
H251
from his brethren,
H5186 [H8799]
and turned
H376
in to a certain
H5726
Adullamite,
H8034
whose name
H2437
was Hirah.
2
H3063
And Judah
H7200 [H8799]
saw
H1323
there a daughter
H376
of a certain
H3669
Canaanite,
H8034
whose name
H7770
was Shuah;
H3947 [H8799]
and he took her,
H935 [H8799]
and went in to her.
3
H2029 [H8799]
And she conceived,
H3205 [H8799]
and bore
H1121
a son;
H7121 [H8799]
and he called
H8034
his name
H6147
Er.
4
H2029 [H8799]
And she conceived
H3205 [H8799]
again, and bore
H1121
a son;
H7121 [H8799]
and she called
H8034
his name
H209
Onan.
5
H3254 [H8686]
And she yet again conceived,
H3205 [H8799]
and bore
H1121
a son;
H7121 [H8799]
and called
H8034
his name
H7956
Shelah:
H3580
and he was at Chezib,
H3205 [H8800]
when she bore him.
6
H3063
And Judah
H3947 [H8799]
took
H802
a wife
H6147
for Er
H1060
his firstborn,
H8034
whose name
H8559
was Tamar.
7
H6147
And Er,
H3063
Judah's
H1060
firstborn,
H7451
was wicked
H5869
in the eyes
H3068
of the LORD;
H3068
and the LORD
H4191 [H8686]
slew him.
8
H3063
And Judah
H559 [H8799]
said
H209
to Onan,
H935 [H8798]
Go in
H251
to thy brother's
H802
wife,
H2992 [H8761]
and marry
H6965 [H8685]
her, and raise up
H2233
seed
H251
to thy brother.
9
H209
And Onan
H3045 [H8799]
knew
H2233
that the seed
H518
should not be his; and it came to pass, when
H935 [H8802]
he went in
H251
to his brother's
H802
wife,
H7843 [H8765]
that he decayed
H776
it on the earth,
H1115
lest
H5414 [H8800]
he should give
H2233
seed
H251
to his brother.
10
H834
And the thing which
H6213 [H8804]
he did
H3415 H5869 [H8799]
displeased
H3068
the LORD:
H4191 [H8686]
therefore he slew him also.
11
H559 [H8799]
Then said
H3063
Judah
H8559
to Tamar
H3618
his daughter in law,
H3427 [H8798]
Remain
H490
a widow
H1
at thy father's
H1004
house,
H7956
till Shelah
H1121
my son
H1431 [H8799]
shall be grown:
H559 [H8804]
for he said,
H4191 [H8799]
Lest perhaps he die
H251
also, as his brethren
H8559
did. And Tamar
H3212 [H8799]
went
H3427 [H8799]
and dwelt
H1
in her father's
H1004
house.
12
H7235 [H8799]
And in process
H3117
of time
H1323
the daughter
H7770
of Shuah
H3063
Judah's
H802
wife
H4191 [H8799]
died;
H3063
and Judah
H5162 [H8735]
was comforted,
H5927 [H8799]
and went up
H1494 H6629 [H8802]
to his sheepshearers
H8553
to Timnath,
H7453
he and his friend
H2437
Hirah
H5726
the Adullamite.
13
H5046 [H8714]
And it was told
H8559
to Tamar,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H2524
Behold thy father in law
H5927 [H8802]
goeth up
H8553
to Timnath
H1494 [H8800]
to shear
H6629
his sheep.
14
H5493 [H8686]
And she put off
H491
from her, her widow's
H899
garments,
H3680 [H8762]
and covered her
H6809
with a veil,
H5968 [H8691]
and wrapped herself,
H3427 [H8799]
and sat in
H5869
an open
H6607
place,
H1870
which is by the way
H8553
to Timnath;
H7200 [H8804]
for she saw
H7956
that Shelah
H1431 [H8804]
was grown,
H5414 [H8738]
and she was not given
H802
to him for a wife.
15
H3063
When Judah
H7200 [H8799]
saw her,
H2803 [H8799]
he thought
H2181 [H8802]
her to be an harlot;
H3680 [H8765]
because she had covered
H6440
her face.
16
H5186 [H8799]
And he turned
H1870
to her by the way,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H3051 [H8798]
Come,
H935 [H8799]
I pray thee, let me come in
H3045 [H8804]
to thee; (for he knew
H3618
not that she was his daughter in law.)
H559 [H8799]
And she said,
H5414 [H8799]
What wilt thou give
H935 [H8799]
me, that thou mayest come in to me?
17
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H7971 [H8762]
I will send
H5795 H1423
thee a kid
H6629
from the flock.
H559 [H8799]
And she said,
H5414 [H8799]
Wilt thou give
H6162
me a pledge,
H7971 [H8800]
till thou sendest it?
18
H559 [H8799]
And he said,
H834
What
H6162
pledge
H5414 [H8799]
shall I give
H559 [H8799]
thee? And she said,
H2368
Thy signet,
H6616
and thy bracelets,
H4294
and thy staff
H3027
that is in thine hand.
H5414 [H8799]
And he gave
H935 [H8799]
them to her, and came in
H2029 [H8799]
to her, and she conceived by him.
19
H6965 [H8799]
And she arose,
H3212 [H8799]
and went her way,
H5493 [H8686]
and laid by
H6809
her veil
H3847 [H8799]
from her, and put on
H899
the garments
H491
of her widowhood.
20
H3063
And Judah
H7971 [H8799]
sent
H1423 H5795
the kid
H3027
by the hand
H7453
of his friend
H5726
the Adullamite,
H3947 [H8800]
to receive
H6162
his pledge
H802
from the woman's
H3027
hand:
H4672 [H8804]
but he found her not.
21
H7592 [H8799]
Then he asked
H582
the men
H4725
of that place,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H6948
Where is the harlot,
H5869
that was openly
H1870
by the way side?
H559 [H8799]
And they said,
H6948
There was no harlot
H2088
in this place.
22
H7725 [H8799]
And he returned
H3063
to Judah,
H559 [H8799]
and said,
H3808
I cannot
H4672 [H8804]
find
H582
her; and also the men
H4725
of the place
H559 [H8804]
said,
H6948
that there was no harlot in this place.
23
H3063
And Judah
H559 [H8799]
said,
H3947 [H8799]
Let her take
H937
it to her, lest we be contemned:
H7971 [H8804]
behold, I sent
H1423
this kid,
H4672 [H8804]
and thou hast not found her.
24
H7969
And it came to pass about three
H2320
months
H5046 [H8714]
after, that it was told
H3063
to Judah,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H8559
Tamar
H3618
thy daughter in law
H2181 [H8804]
hath played the harlot;
H2030
and also, behold, she is with child
H2183
by harlotry.
H3063
And Judah
H559 [H8799]
said,
H3318 [H8685]
Bring her forth,
H8313 [H8735]
and let her be burnt.
25
H3318 [H8716]
When she was brought forth,
H7971 [H8804]
she sent
H2524
to her father in law,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H376
By the man,
H2030
whose these are, am I with child:
H559 [H8799]
and she said,
H5234 [H8685]
Discern,
H2858
I pray thee, whose are these, the signet,
H6616
and bracelets,
H4294
and staff.
26
H3063
And Judah
H5234 [H8686]
acknowledged
H559 [H8799]
them, and said,
H6663 [H8804]
She hath been more righteous
H5414 [H8804]
than I; because that I gave
H7956
her not to Shelah
H1121
my son.
H3045 [H8800]
And he knew her
H3254 [H8804]
again no more.
27
H6256
And it came to pass in the time
H3205 [H8800]
of her travail,
H8380
that, behold, twins
H990
were in her womb.
28
H3205 [H8800]
And it came to pass, when she travailed,
H5414 [H8799]
that the one put out
H3027
his hand:
H3205 [H8764]
and the midwife
H3947 [H8799]
took
H7194 [H8799]
and bound
H3027
upon his hand
H8144
a scarlet thread,
H559 [H8800]
saying,
H3318 [H8804]
This came out
H7223
first.
