Genesis 38:3-7

3And she conceived and gave birth to a son, and he named him 1Er. 4Then she conceived again and gave birth to a son, and she named him 2Onan. 5She gave birth to yet another son and named him 3Shelah; and it was at Chezib 4that she gave birth to him.

6Now Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar. 7But 5Er, Judah’s firstborn, was evil in the sight of the Lord, so the Lord took his life.
