Genesis 38:13-14

13It was told to Tamar, “1Behold, your father-in-law is going up to 2Timnah to shear his sheep.”

14So she 3removed her widow’s garments and 4covered herself with a 5veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gateway of 6Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah had grown up, and 7she had not been given to him as a wife.
