Genesis 38:1-6

1About this time, Judah left home and moved to Adullam, where he stayed with a man named Hirah.

2There he saw a Canaanite woman, the daughter of Shua, and he married her. When he slept with her,

3she became pregnant and gave birth to a son, and he named the boy Er.

4Then she became pregnant again and gave birth to another son, and she named him Onan.

5And when she gave birth to a third son, she named him Shelah. At the time of Shelah’s birth, they were living at Kezib.

6In the course of time, Judah arranged for his firstborn son, Er, to marry a young woman named Tamar.
