Genesis 38:1-13

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>_.

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.

And she conceived
<02029> (8799)_,

and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_;

and he called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Er
<06147>_.

And she conceived
<02029> (8799)

again, and bare
<03205> (8799)

a son
<01121>_;

and she called
<07121> (8799)

his name
<08034>

Onan
<0209>_.

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.

And Judah
<03063>

took
<03947> (8799)

a wife
<0802>

for Er
<06147>

his firstborn
<01060>_,

whose name
<08034>

[was] Tamar
<08559>_.

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.

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>_.

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>_.

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}

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>_.

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}

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>_.
