Genesis 38:12-17
12And in processH7235 of timeH3117 the daughterH1323 of ShuahH7770 Judah’sH3063 wifeH802 diedH4191; and JudahH3063 was comfortedH5162, and went upH5927 to his sheepshearersH1494H6629 to TimnathH8553, he and his friendH7453 HirahH2437 the AdullamiteH5726.1 13And it was toldH5046 to TamarH8559, sayingH559, Behold thy father in lawH2524 goeth upH5927 to TimnathH8553 to shearH1494 his sheepH6629. 14And she put offH5493 from her, her widow’sH491 garmentsH899, and covered herH3680 with a veilH6809, and wrapped herselfH5968, and sat inH3427 an openH5869 placeH6607, which is by the wayH1870 to TimnathH8553; for she sawH7200 that ShelahH7956 was grownH1431, and she was not givenH5414 to him for a wifeH802.2 15When JudahH3063 saw herH7200, he thoughtH2803 her to be an harlotH2181; because she had coveredH3680 her faceH6440. 16And he turnedH5186 to her by the wayH1870, and saidH559, ComeH3051, I pray thee, let me come inH935 to thee; (for he knewH3045 not that she was his daughter in lawH3618.) And she saidH559, What wilt thou giveH5414 me, that thou mayest come inH935 to me? 17And he saidH559, I will sendH7971 thee a kidH5795H1423 from the flockH6629. And she saidH559, Wilt thou giveH5414 me a pledgeH6162, till thou sendestH7971 it ?3
