Genesis 38:17-20

17He answered, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” And she said, “Will you give me a pledge [as a deposit] until you send it?”

18He said, “What pledge shall I give you?” She said, “Your seal and your cord, and the staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and was intimate with her, and she conceived by him.

19Then she got up and left, and removed her veil and put on her widow’s clothing.

20When Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite, to get his pledge [back] from the woman, he was unable to find her.
