And it came to pass at that time,
that Judah
went down
from his brethren,
and turned
in to a certain
Adullamite,
whose name
was Hirah.

And Judah
saw
there a daughter
of a certain
Canaanite,
whose name
was Shuah;
and he took her,
and went in
unto her.
And she conceived,
and bare
a son;
and he called
his name
Er.
And she conceived
again, and bare
a son;
and she called
his name
Onan.
And she yet again conceived,
and bare
a son;
and called
his name
Shelah:
and he was at Chezib,
when she bare
him.
And Judah
took
a wife
for Er
his firstborn,
whose name
was Tamar.
And Er,
Judah's
firstborn,
was wicked
in the sight
of the LORD;
and the LORD
slew
him.
And Judah
said
unto Onan,
Go in
unto thy brother's
wife,
and marry
her, and raise up
seed
to thy brother.
And Onan
knew
that the seed
should not be his; and it came to pass, when
he went in
unto his brother's
wife,
that he spilled
it on the ground,
lest
that he should give
seed
to his brother.

And the thing which
he did
displeased
the LORD:
wherefore he slew
him also.
Then said
Judah
to Tamar
his daughter in law,
Remain
a widow
at thy father's
house,
till Shelah
my son
be grown:
for he said,
Lest peradventure he die
also, as his brethren
did. And Tamar
went
and dwelt
in her father's
house.

And in process

died;
and Judah
was comforted,
and went up
unto his sheepshearers
to Timnath,
he and his friend
Hirah
the Adullamite.

And it was told
Tamar,
saying,
Behold thy father in law
goeth up
to Timnath
to shear
his sheep.
And she put
her widow's
garments
off
from her, and covered her
with a vail,
and wrapped herself,
and sat in
an open
place,
which is by the way
to Timnath;
for she saw
that Shelah
was grown,
and she was not given
unto him to wife.

When Judah
saw her,
he thought
her to be an harlot;
because she had covered
her face.
And he turned
unto her by the way,
and said,
Go to,
I pray thee, let me come in
unto thee; (for he knew
not that she was his daughter in law.
) And she said,
What wilt thou give
me, that thou mayest come in
unto me?

And he said,
I will send
thee a kid

And she said,
Wilt thou give
me a pledge,

it?
And he said,
What
pledge
shall I give
thee? And she said,
Thy signet,
and thy bracelets,
and thy staff
that is in thine hand.
And he gave
it her, and came in
unto her, and she conceived
by him.

And Judah
sent
the kid
by the hand
of his friend
the Adullamite,
to receive

from the woman's
hand:
but he found her
not.

Then he asked
the men
of that place,
saying,
Where is the harlot,
that was openly
by the way side?
And they said,
There was no harlot
in this
place.

And he returned
to Judah,
and said,
I cannot

of the place
said,
that there was no harlot
in this place.
And Judah
said,
Let her take
it to her, lest we be shamed:
behold, I sent
this kid,
and thou hast not found
her.
And it came to pass about three
months
after, that it was told
Judah,
saying,
Tamar
thy daughter in law
hath played the harlot;
and also, behold, she is with child
by whoredom.
And Judah
said,
Bring her forth,
and let her be burnt.

When she was brought forth,
she sent
to her father in law,
saying,
By the man,

Discern,
I pray thee, whose are these, the signet,
and bracelets,
and staff.

And it came to pass in the time

a scarlet thread,
