@ Then
said
Judah
to
Tamar
his daughter in
law
,
Remain
a
widow
at thy
fathers
house
, till
Shelah
my
son
be
grown
: for he
said
, Lest peradventure he
die
also, as his
brethren
did. And
Tamar
went
and
dwelt
in her
fathers
house
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:12
@ And in
process
of
time
the
daughter
of
Shuah
Judahs
wife
died
; and
Judah
was
comforted
, and went
up
unto his
sheepshearers
to
Timnath
, he and his
friend
Hirah
the
Adullamite
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:13
@ And it was
told
Tamar
,
saying
, Behold thy father in
law
goeth
up
to
Timnath
to
shear
his
sheep
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:14
@ And she
put
her
widows
garments
off
from her, and covered
her
with a
vail
, and wrapped
herself
, and sat
in
an
open
place
, which is by the
way
to
Timnath
; for she
saw
that
Shelah
was
grown
, and she was not
given
unto him to
wife
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:15
@ When
Judah
saw
her
, he
thought
her to be an
harlot
; because she had
covered
her
face
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:16
@ And he
turned
unto her by the
way
, and
said
, Go
to
, I pray thee, let me come
in
unto thee; (for he
knew
not that she was his daughter in
law
. ) And she
said
, What wilt thou
give
me, that thou mayest come
in
unto me?
strkjv@Genesis:38:17
@ And he
said
, I will
send
thee a
kid
H1423from the
flock
. And she
said
, Wilt thou
give
me a
pledge
, till thou
send
it?
strkjv@Genesis:38:18
@ And he
said
,
What
pledge
shall I
give
thee? And she
said
, Thy
signet
, and thy
bracelets
, and thy
staff
that is in thine
hand
. And he
gave
it her, and came
in
unto her, and she
conceived
by him.
strkjv@Genesis:38:19
@ And she
arose
, and went
away
, and laid
by
her
vail
from her, and put
on
the
garments
of her
widowhood
.
strkjv@Genesis:38:20
@ And
Judah
sent
the
kid
g@
by the
hand
of his
friend
the
Adullamite
, to
receive
his
pledge
from the
womans
hand
: but he found
her
not.
strkjv@Genesis:38:21
@ Then he
asked
the
men
of that
place
,
saying
, Where is the
harlot
, that was
openly
by the way
side
? And they
said
, There was no
harlot
in
this
place.
strkjv@Genesis:38:22
@ And he
returned
to
Judah
, and
said
, I
cannot
find
her; and also the
men
of the
place
said
, that there was no
harlot
in this place.
strkjv@Genesis:38:23
@ And
Judah
said
, Let her
take
it to her, lest we be
shamed
: behold, I
sent
this
kid

found
her.
strkjv@Genesis:38:24
@ And it came to pass about
three
months
after, that it was
told
Judah
,
saying
,
Tamar
thy daughter in
law
hath played the
harlot
; and also, behold, she is with
child
by
whoredom

Judah
said
, Bring her
forth
, and let her be
burnt
