*
And it came to pass at that time ,
that Judah went down from his brethren ,
and turned in to a certain Adullamite ,
whose name was Hirah .
*
And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite K @
na #
aniy #,
whose name was Shuah ;
and he took her ,
and went in unto her .
*
And she conceived ,
and bare a son ;
and he called his name Er .
*
And she conceived again ,
and bare a son ;
and she called his name Onan .
*
And she yet again conceived ,
and bare a son ;
and called his name Shelah :
and he was at Chezib ,
when she bare him .
*
And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn ,
whose name was Tamar .
*
And Er ,
Judahs firstborn ,
was wicked in the sight of the LORD ;
and the LORD slew him .
*
And Judah said unto Onan ,
Go in unto thy brothers wife ,
and marry her ,
and raise up seed to thy brother .
*
And Onan knew that the seed should not be his ;
and it came to pass ,
when he went in unto his brothers wife ,
that he spilled it on the ground ,
lest that he should give seed to his brother .
*
And the thing which he did displeased the LORD :
wherefore he slew him also .
