{officer: Heb. eunuch: but the word doth signify not only eunuchs, but also chamberlains, courtiers, and officers} {captain...: or, chief marshal: Heb. chief of the slaughter men, or executioners}

38:1

And it came to pass at that time
<06256>_,

that Judah
<03063>

went down
<03381> (8799)

from his brethren
<0251>_,

and turned
<05186> (8799)

in to a certain
<0376>

Adullamite
<05726>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Hirah
<02437>_.

38:2

And Judah
<03063>

saw
<07200> (8799)

there a daughter
<01323>

of a certain
<0376>

Canaanite
<03669>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Shuah
<07770>_;

and he took her
<03947> (8799)_,

and went in
<0935> (8799)

unto her.

38:3

And she conceived
<02029> (8799)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_;

and he called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Er
<06147>_.

38:4

And she conceived
<02029> (8799)

again, and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_;

and she called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Onan
<0209>_.

38:5

And she yet again conceived
<03254> (8686)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_;

and called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Shelah
<07956>_:

and he was at Chezib
<03580>_,

when she bare
<03205> (8800)

him.

38:6

And Judah
<03063>

took
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

for Er
<06147>

his firstborn
<01060>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Tamar
<08559>_.

38:7

And Er
<06147>_,

Judah's
<03063>

firstborn
<01060>_,

was wicked
<07451>

in the sight
<05869>

of the LORD
<03068>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

slew
<04191> (8686)

him.

38:8

And Judah
<03063>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Onan
<0209>_,

Go in
<0935> (8798)

unto thy brother's
<0251>

wife
<0802>_,

and marry
<02992> (8761)

her, and raise up
<06965> (8685)

seed
<02233>

to thy brother
<0251>_.

38:9

And Onan
<0209>

knew
<03045> (8799)

that the seed
<02233>

should not be his; and it came to pass, when
<0518>

he went in
<0935> (8802)

unto his brother's
<0251>

wife
<0802>_,

that he spilled
<07843> (8765)

[it] on the ground
<0776>_,

lest
<01115>

that he should give
<05414> (8800)

seed
<02233>

to his brother
<0251>_.

38:10

And the thing which
<0834>

he did
<06213> (8804)

displeased
<03415> (8799) <05869>

the LORD
<03068>_:

wherefore he slew
<04191> (8686)

him also. {displeased...: Heb. was evil in the eyes of the Lord}

38:11

Then said
<0559> (8799)

Judah
<03063>

to Tamar
<08559>

his daughter in law
<03618>_,

Remain
<03427> (8798)

a widow
<0490>

at thy father's
<01>

house
<01004>_,

till Shelah
<07956>

my son
<01121>

be grown
<01431> (8799)_:

for he said
<0559> (8804)_,

Lest peradventure he die
<04191> (8799)

also, as his brethren
<0251>

[did]. And Tamar
<08559>

went
<03212> (8799)

and dwelt
<03427> (8799)

in her father's
<01>

house
<01004>_.

38:12

And in process
<07235> (8799)

of time
<03117>

the daughter
<01323>

of Shuah
<07770>

Judah's
<03063>

wife
<0802>

died
<04191> (8799)_;

and Judah
<03063>

was comforted
<05162> (8735)_,

and went up
<05927> (8799)

unto his sheepshearers
<01494> (8802) <06629>

to Timnath
<08553>_,

he and his friend
<07453>

Hirah
<02437>

the Adullamite
<05726>_.

{in process...: Heb. the days were multiplied}

38:13

And it was told
<05046> (8714)

Tamar
<08559>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Behold thy father in law
<02524>

goeth up
<05927> (8802)

to Timnath
<08553>

to shear
<01494> (8800)

his sheep
<06629>_.

38:14

And she put
<05493> (0)

her widow's
<0491>

garments
<0899>

off
<05493> (8686)

from her, and covered her
<03680> (8762)

with a vail
<06809>_,

and wrapped herself
<05968> (8691)_,

and sat in
<03427> (8799)

an open
<05869>

place
<06607>_,

which [is] by the way
<01870>

to Timnath
<08553>_;

for she saw
<07200> (8804)

that Shelah
<07956>

was grown
<01431> (8804)_,

and she was not given
<05414> (8738)

unto him to wife
<0802>_.

{an open...: Heb. the door of eyes, or, of Enajim}

38:15

When Judah
<03063>

saw her
<07200> (8799)_,

he thought
<02803> (8799)

her [to be] an harlot
<02181> (8802)_;

because she had covered
<03680> (8765)

her face
<06440>_.

38:16

And he turned
<05186> (8799)

unto her by the way
<01870>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Go to
<03051> (8798)_,

I pray thee, let me come in
<0935> (8799)

unto thee; (for he knew
<03045> (8804)

not that she [was] his daughter in law
<03618>.)

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

What wilt thou give
<05414> (8799)

me, that thou mayest come in
<0935> (8799)

unto me?

38:17

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

I will send
<07971> (8762)

[thee] a kid
<05795> <01423>

from the flock
<06629>_.

And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Wilt thou give
<05414> (8799)

[me] a pledge
<06162>_,

till thou send
<07971> (8800)

[it]? {a kid: Heb. a kid of the goats}

38:18

And he said
<0559> (8799)_,

What
<0834>

pledge
<06162>

shall I give
<05414> (8799)

thee? And she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Thy signet
<02368>_,

and thy bracelets
<06616>_,

and thy staff
<04294>

that [is] in thine hand
<03027>_.

And he gave
<05414> (8799)

[it] her, and came in
<0935> (8799)

unto her, and she conceived
<02029> (8799)

by him.

38:19

And she arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and went away
<03212> (8799)_,

and laid by
<05493> (8686)

her vail
<06809>

from her, and put on
<03847> (8799)

the garments
<0899>

of her widowhood
<0491>_.

38:20

And Judah
<03063>

sent
<07971> (8799)

the kid
<01423> <05795>

by the hand
<03027>

of his friend
<07453>

the Adullamite
<05726>_,

to receive
<03947> (8800)

[his] pledge
<06162>

from the woman's
<0802>

hand
<03027>_:

but he found her
<04672> (8804)

not.

38:21

Then he asked
<07592> (8799)

the men
<0582>

of that place
<04725>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Where [is] the harlot
<06948>_,

that [was] openly
<05869>

by the way side
<01870>_?

And they said
<0559> (8799)_,

There was no harlot
<06948>

in this
<02088>

[place]. {openly: or, in Enajim}

38:22

And he returned
<07725> (8799)

to Judah
<03063>_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

I cannot
<03808>

find
<04672> (8804)

her; and also the men
<0582>

of the place
<04725>

said
<0559> (8804)_,

[that] there was no harlot
<06948>

in this [place].

38:23

And Judah
<03063>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Let her take
<03947> (8799)

[it] to her, lest we be shamed
<0937>_:

behold, I sent
<07971> (8804)

this kid
<01423>_,

and thou hast not found
<04672> (8804)

her. {be shamed: Heb. become a contempt}

38:24

And it came to pass about three
<07969>

months
<02320>

after, that it was told
<05046> (8714)

Judah
<03063>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Tamar
<08559>

thy daughter in law
<03618>

hath played the harlot
<02181> (8804)_;

and also, behold, she [is] with child
<02030>

by whoredom
<02183>_.

And Judah
<03063>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Bring her forth
<03318> (8685)_,

and let her be burnt
<08313> (8735)_.

38:25

When she [was] brought forth
<03318> (8716)_,

she sent
<07971> (8804)

to her father in law
<02524>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

By the man
<0376>_,

whose these [are, am] I with child
<02030>_:

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Discern
<05234> (8685)_,

I pray thee, whose [are] these, the signet
<02858>_,

and bracelets
<06616>_,

and staff
<04294>_.

38:26

And Judah
<03063>

acknowledged
<05234> (8686)

[them], and said
<0559> (8799)_,

She hath been more righteous
<06663> (8804)

than I; because that I gave
<05414> (8804)

her not to Shelah
<07956>

my son
<01121>_.

And he knew her
<03045> (8800)

again
<03254> (8804)

no more.

38:27

And it came to pass in the time
<06256>

of her travail
<03205> (8800)_,

that, behold, twins
<08380>

[were] in her womb
<0990>_.

38:28

And it came to pass, when she travailed
<03205> (8800)_,

that [the one] put out
<05414> (8799)

[his] hand
<03027>_:

and the midwife
<03205> (8764)

took
<03947> (8799)

and bound
<07194> (8799)

upon his hand
<03027>

a scarlet thread
<08144>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

This came out
<03318> (8804)

first
<07223>_.

38:29

And it came to pass, as he drew back
<07725> (8688)

his hand
<03027>_,

that, behold, his brother
<0251>

came out
<03318> (8804)_:

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

How hast thou broken forth
<06555> (8804)_?

[this] breach
<06556>

[be] upon thee: therefore his name
<08034>

was called
<07121> (8799)

Pharez
<06557>_.

{How hast...: or, Wherefore hast thou made this breach against thee?} {Pharez: that is A breach}

38:30

And afterward
<0310>

came out
<03318> (8804)

his brother
<0251>_,

that had the scarlet thread
<08144>

upon his hand
<03027>_:

and his name
<08034>

was called
<07121> (8799)

Zarah
<02226>_.

39:1

And Joseph
<03130>

was brought down
<03381> (8717)

to Egypt
<04714>_;

and Potiphar
<06318>_,

an officer
<05631>

of Pharaoh
<06547>_,

captain
<08269>

of the guard
<02876>_,

an Egyptian
<0376> <04713>_,

bought
<07069> (8799)

him of the hands
<03027>

of the Ishmeelites
<03459>_,

which had brought him down
<03381> (8689)

thither.

39:2

And the LORD
<03068>

was with Joseph
<03130>_,

and he was a prosperous
<06743> (8688)

man
<0376>_;

and he was in the house
<01004>

of his master
<0113>

the Egyptian
<04713>_.

39:3

And his master
<0113>

saw
<07200> (8799)

that the LORD
<03068>

[was] with him, and that the LORD
<03068>

made all that he did
<06213> (8802)

to prosper
<06743> (8688)

in his hand
<03027>_.

39:4

And Joseph
<03130>

found
<04672> (8799)

grace
<02580>

in his sight
<05869>_,

and he served
<08334> (8762)

him: and he made him overseer
<06485> (8686)

over his house
<01004>_,

and all [that] he had
<03426>

he put
<05414> (8804)

into his hand
<03027>_.

39:5

And it came to pass from the time
<0227>

[that] he had made him overseer
<06485> (8689)

in his house
<01004>_,

and over all that he had
<03426>_,

that the LORD
<03068>

blessed
<01288> (8762)

the Egyptian's
<04713>

house
<01004>

for Joseph's
<03130>

sake
<01558>_;

and the blessing
<01293>

of the LORD
<03068>

was upon all that he had
<03426>

in the house
<01004>_,

and in the field
<07704>_.

39:6

And he left
<05800> (8799)

all that he had in Joseph's
<03130>

hand
<03027>_;

and he knew
<03045> (8804)

not ought
<03972>

he had, save
<0518>

the bread
<03899>

which he did eat
<0398> (8802)_.

And Joseph
<03130>

was [a] goodly
<08389>

[person], and well
<03303>

favoured
<04758>_.

39:7

And it came to pass after
<0310>

these things
<01697>_,

that his master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>

cast
<05375> (8799)

her eyes
<05869>

upon Joseph
<03130>_;

and she said
<0559> (8799)_,

Lie
<07901> (8798)

with me.

39:8

But he refused
<03985> (8762)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)

unto his master's
<0113>

wife
<0802>_,

Behold, my master
<0113>

wotteth
<03045> (8804)

not what [is] with me in the house
<01004>_,

and he hath committed
<05414> (8804)

all that he hath
<03426>

to my hand
<03027>_;

39:9

[There is] none greater
<01419>

in this house
<01004>

than I; neither
<03808>

hath he kept back
<02820> (8804)

any thing
<03972>

from me but thee, because
<0834>

thou
<0859>

[art] his wife
<0802>_:

how then can I do
<06213> (8799)

this great
<01419>

wickedness
<07451>_,

and sin
<02398> (8804)

against God
<0430>_?

39:10

And it came to pass, as she spake
<01696> (8763)

to Joseph
<03130>

day
<03117>

by day
<03117>_,

that he hearkened
<08085> (8804)

not unto her, to lie
<07901> (8800)

by her
<0681>_,

[or] to be with her.

39:11

And it came to pass about this time
<03117>_,

that [Joseph] went
<0935> (8799)

into the house
<01004>

to do
<06213> (8800)

his business
<04399>_;

and [there was] none of the men
<0376> <0582>

of the house
<01004>

there within.

39:12

And she caught
<08610> (8799)

him by his garment
<0899>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

Lie
<07901> (8798)

with me: and he left
<05800> (8799)

his garment
<0899>

in her hand
<03027>_,

and fled
<05127> (8799)_,

and got
<03318> (8799)

him out
<02351>_.

39:13

And it came to pass, when she saw
<07200> (8800)

that he had left
<05800> (8804)

his garment
<0899>

in her hand
<03027>_,

and was fled
<05127> (8799)

forth
<02351>_,

39:14

That she called
<07121> (8799)

unto the men
<0582>

of her house
<01004>_,

and spake
<0559> (8799)

unto them, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

See
<07200> (8798)_,

he hath brought in
<0935> (8689)

an Hebrew
<0376> <05680>

unto us to mock
<06711> (8763)

us; he came in
<0935> (8804)

unto me to lie
<07901> (8800)

with me, and I cried
<07121> (8799)

with a loud
<01419>

voice
<06963>_:

{loud: Heb. great}

39:15

And it came to pass, when he heard
<08085> (8800)

that I lifted up
<07311> (8689)

my voice
<06963>

and cried
<07121> (8799)_,

that he left
<05800> (8799)

his garment
<0899>

with me
<0681>_,

and fled
<05127> (8799)_,

and got him
<03318> (8799)

out
<02351>_.

39:16

And she laid up
<03240> (8686)

his garment
<0899>

by her
<0681>_,

until his lord
<0113>

came
<0935> (8800)

home
<01004>_.

39:17

And she spake
<01696> (8762)

unto him according to these words
<01697>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

The Hebrew
<05680>

servant
<05650>_,

which thou hast brought
<0935> (8689)

unto us, came in
<0935> (8804)

unto me to mock
<06711> (8763)

me:

39:18

And it came to pass, as I lifted up
<07311> (8687)

my voice
<06963>

and cried
<07121> (8799)_,

that he left
<05800> (8799)

his garment
<0899>

with me
<0681>_,

and fled
<05127> (8799)

out
<02351>_.

39:19

And it came to pass, when his master
<0113>

heard
<08085> (8800)

the words
<01697>

of his wife
<0802>_,

which she spake
<01696> (8765)

unto him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

After this manner
<01697>

did
<06213> (8804)

thy servant
<05650>

to me; that his wrath
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)_.

39:20

And Joseph's
<03130>

master
<0113>

took
<03947> (8799)

him, and put him
<05414> (8799)

into the prison
<01004> <05470>_,

a place
<04725>

where the king's
<04428>

prisoners
<0615>

[were] bound
<0631> (8803)_:

and he was there in the prison
<01004> <05470>_.

39:21

But the LORD
<03068>

was with Joseph
<03130>_,

and shewed
<05186> (8799)

him mercy
<02617>_,

and gave
<05414> (8799)

him favour
<02580>

in the sight
<05869>

of the keeper
<08269>

of the prison
<01004> <05470>_.

{shewed...: Heb. extended kindness unto him}

39:22

And the keeper
<08269>

of the prison
<01004> <05470>

committed
<05414> (8799)

to Joseph's
<03130>

hand
<03027>

all the prisoners
<0615>

that [were] in the prison
<01004> <05470>_;

and whatsoever they did
<06213> (8802)

there, he was the doer
<06213> (8802)

[of it].

39:23

The keeper
<08269>

of the prison
<01004> <05470>

looked
<07200> (8802)

not to any thing
<03972>

[that was] under his hand
<03027>_;

because the LORD
<03068>

was with him, and [that] which he did
<06213> (8802)_,

the LORD
<03068>

made [it] to prosper
<06743> (8688)_.

<08297>

Abram's
<087>

wife
<0802>

bare
<03205> (0)

children
<03205> (8804)_:

and she had an handmaid
<08198>_,

an Egyptian
<04713>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Hagar
<01904>_.

And the man
<0376>

that committeth adultery
<05003> (8799)

with [another] man's
<0376>

wife
<0802>_,

[even he] that committeth adultery
<05003> (8799)

with his neighbour's
<07453>

wife
<0802>_,

the adulterer
<05003> (8802)

shall surely

be put to death

<01323>

of any
<0376>

priest
<03548>_,

if she profane
<02490> (8735)

herself by playing the whore
<02181> (8800)_,

she profaneth
<02490> (8764)

<01>_:

she shall be burnt
<08313> (8735)

with fire
<0784>_.

of her city
<05892>

shall stone
<05619> (8804)

her with stones
<068>

that she die
<04191> (8804)_:

because she hath wrought
<06213> (8804)

folly
<05039>

in Israel
<03478>_,

to play the whore
<02181> (8800)

in her father's
<01>

house
<01004>_:

so shalt thou put
<01197> (0)

evil
<07451>

away
<01197> (8765)

from among
<07130>

you.

22:22

<0376>

be found
<04672> (8735)

<01166> (8803)

to an husband
<01167>_,

then they shall both of them
<08147>

die
<04191> (8804)_,

[both] the man
<0376>

that lay
<07901> (8802)

with the woman
<0802>_,

and the woman
<0802>_:

so shalt thou put away

from Israel

find

her in the city

with her;

Then ye shall bring

them both
<08147>

out unto the gate

of that city
<05892>_,

and ye shall stone
<05619> (8804)

them with stones
<068>

that they die

the damsel

because

she cried

not, [being] in the city

from among
<07130>

you.

<1161>

when
<5613>

they continued
<1961> (5707)

asking
<2065> (5723)

him
<846>_,

he lifted up himself
<352> (5660)_,

and said
<2036> (5627)

unto
<4314>

them
<846>_,

He that is without sin
<361>

among you
<5216>_,

let him
<906> (0)

first
<4413>

cast
<906> (5628)

a stone
<3037>

at
<1909>

her
