Genesis 38:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 About that time, Judah left his brothers and went to stay with a man named Hirah from the town of Adullam.
2 Judah met a Canaanite girl there and married her. The girl's father was named Shua.
3 The Canaanite girl gave birth to a son and named him Er.
4 Later, she gave birth to another son and named him Onan.
5 Then she had another son named Shelah. Judah lived in Kezib when his third son was born.
6 Judah chose a woman named Tamar to be the wife of his first son Er.
7 But Er did many bad things. The Lord was not happy with him, so the Lord killed him.
8 Then Judah said to Er's brother Onan, "Go and sleep with your dead brother's wife. Become like a husband to her. If children are born, they will belong to your brother Er."
9 Onan knew that the children from this union would not belong to him. He had sexual relations with Tamar, but he did not allow himself to stay inside her.
10 This made the Lord angry. So he killed Onan also.
11 Then Judah said to his daughter-inlaw Tamar, "Go back to your father's house. Stay there and don't marry until my young son Shelah grows up." Judah was afraid that Shelah would also be killed like his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's home.
12 Later, Judah's wife, the daughter of Shua, died. After Judah's time of sadness, he went to Timnah with his friend Hirah from Adullam. Judah went to Timnah to have the wool cut from his sheep.
13 Tamar learned that Judah, her father-in-law, was going to Timnah to cut the wool from his sheep.
14 Tamar always wore clothes that showed that she was a widow. So she put on some different clothes and covered her face with a veil. Then she sat down near the road going to Enaim, a town near Timnah. Tamar knew that Judah's younger son Shelah was now grown up, but Judah would not make plans for her to marry him.
15 Judah traveled on that road and saw her, but he thought that she was a prostitute. (Her face was covered with a veil like a prostitute.)
16 So he went to her and said, "Let me have sex with you." (Judah did not know that she was Tamar, his daughter-inlaw.) She said, "How much will you give me?"
17 Judah answered, "I will send you a young goat from my flock." She answered, "I agree to that. But first you must give me something to keep until you send me the goat."
18 Judah asked, "What do you want me to give you as proof that I will send you the goat?" Tamar answered, "Give me your seal and its string and your walking stick." Judah gave these things to her. Then Judah and Tamar had sexual relations, and she became pregnant.
19 Then Tamar went home, took off her veil that covered her face, and again put on the special clothes that showed she was a widow.
20 Later, Judah sent his friend Hirah to Enaim to give the prostitute the goat he promised. Judah also told Hirah to get the special seal and the walking stick from her, but Hirah could not find her.
21 He asked some of the men at the town of Enaim, "Where is the prostitute who was here by the road?" The men answered, "There has never been a prostitute here."
22 So Judah's friend went back to Judah and said, "I could not find the woman. The men who live in that place said that there was never a prostitute there."
23 So Judah said, "Let her keep the things. I don't want people to laugh at us. I tried to give her the goat, but we could not find her. That is enough."
24 About three months later, someone told Judah, "Your daughter-in-law Tamar sinned like a prostitute, and now she is pregnant." Then Judah said, "Take her out and burn her."
25 The men went to Tamar to kill her, but she sent a message to her father-in-law that said, "The man who made me pregnant is the man who owns these things. Look at them. Whose are they? Whose special seal and string is this? Whose walking stick is this?"
26 Judah recognized these things and said, "She is right. I was wrong. I did not give her my son Shelah like I promised." And Judah did not sleep with her again.
27 The time came for Tamar to give birth. She was going to have twins.
28 While she was giving birth, one baby put his hand out. The nurse tied a red string on the hand and said, "This baby was born first."
29 But that baby pulled his hand back in, so the other baby was born first. So the nurse said, "You were able to break out first!" So they named him Perez.
30 After this, the other baby was born. This was the baby with the red string on his hand. They named him Zerah.
1 And it came to pass H1961 W-VPY3MS at that H1931 D-PPRO-3FS time H6256 , that Judah H3063 went down H3381 W-VQY3MS from his brethren H251 NMP-3MS , and turned in H5186 W-VQY3MS to H5704 PREP a certain H376 NMS Adullamite H5726 , whose name H8034 was Hirah H2437 .
2 And Judah H3063 saw H7200 W-VIY3MS there H8033 ADV a daughter H1323 CFS of a certain H376 NMS Canaanite H3669 , whose name H8034 was Shuah H7770 ; and he took H3947 W-VQY3MS her , and went in H935 W-VQY3MS unto H413 her .
3 And she conceived H2029 W-VQY3FS , and bore H3205 W-VQY3FS a son H1121 NMS ; and he called H7121 W-VQY3MS his name H8034 CMS-3MS Er H6147 .
4 And she conceived H2029 W-VQY3FS again H5750 ADV , and bore H3205 W-VQY3FS a son H1121 NMS ; and she called H7121 W-VQY2MS his name H8034 CMS-3MS Onan H209 .
5 And she yet again H5750 ADV conceived H3254 W-VQY3FS , and bore H3205 W-VQY3FS a son H1121 NMS ; and called H7121 W-VQY2MS his name H8034 CMS-3MS Shelah H7956 : and he was H1961 W-VQQ3MS at Chezib H3580 , when she bore H3205 him .
6 And Judah H3063 took H3947 W-VQY3MS a wife H802 NFS for Er H6147 his firstborn H1060 , whose name H8034 was Tamar H8559 .
7 And Er H6147 , Judah H3063 \'s firstborn H1060 CMS , was H1961 W-VQY3MS wicked H7451 AMS in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS ; and the LORD H3068 NAME-4MS slew H4191 him .
8 And Judah H3063 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto Onan H209 , Go in H935 unto H413 PREP thy brother H251 CMS-2MS \'s wife H802 CFS , and marry H2992 her , and raise up H6965 seed H2233 NMS to thy brother H251 CMS-2MS .
9 And Onan H209 knew H3045 W-VQY3MS that H3588 CONJ the seed H2233 should not H3808 NPAR be H1961 W-VQQ3MS his ; and it came to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , when H518 PART he went in H935 VQPMS unto H413 PREP his brother H251 CMS-3MS \'s wife H802 CFS , that he spilled H7843 it on the ground H776 NFS-3FS , lest H1115 L-NPAR that he should give H5414 seed H2233 NMS to his brother H251 .
10 And the thing which H834 RPRO he did H6213 VQQ3MS displeased H7489 W-VQY3MS the LORD H3068 EDS : wherefore he slew H4191 him also H1571 CONJ .
11 Then said H559 W-VQY3MS Judah H3063 to Tamar H8559 his daughter H3618 CFS-3MS - in - law , Remain H3427 a widow H490 NFS at thy father H1 \'s house H1004 CMS , till H5704 PREP Shelah H7956 my son H1121 be grown H1431 : for H3588 CONJ he said H559 W-VQY3MS , Lest peradventure H6435 CONJ he H1931 PPRO-3MS die H4191 VQY3MS also H1571 CONJ , as his brethren H251 did . And Tamar H8559 went H1980 W-VQQ3FS and dwelt H3427 in her father H1 \'s house H1004 CMS .
12 And in process of time H7235 W-VQY3MP the daughter H1323 CFS of Shuah H7770 Judah H3063 \'s wife H802 CFS died H4191 ; and Judah H3063 was comforted H5162 W-VNY3MS , and went up H5927 W-VHY3MS unto H5921 PREP his sheepshearers H1494 to Timnath H8553 , he H1931 PPRO-3MS and his friend H7453 NMS-3MS Hirah H2437 the Adullamite H5726 .
13 And it was told H5046 Tamar H8559 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Behold H2009 IJEC thy father H2524 - in - law goeth up H5927 to Timnath H8553 to shear H1494 his sheep H6629 .
14 And she put H5493 her widow H491 \'s garments H899 off from PREP her , and covered H3680 her with a veil H6809 , and wrapped herself H5968 , and sat H3427 in an open H5879 place H6607 , which H834 RPRO is by H5921 PREP the way H1870 NMS to Timnath H8553 ; for H3588 CONJ she saw H7200 VQQ3FS that H3588 CONJ Shelah H7956 was grown H1431 VQQ3MS , and she H1931 was not H3808 ADV given H5414 VNQ3FS unto him to wife H802 .
15 When Judah H3063 saw H7200 her , he thought H2803 her to be a harlot H2181 ; because H3588 CONJ she had covered H3680 her face H6440 .
16 And he turned H5186 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP her by H413 PREP the way H1870 D-NMS , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , Go to H3051 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , let me come in H935 VQI1MS unto H413 PREP thee H3588 CONJ ; ( CONJ for CONJ he knew H3045 VQQ3MS not H3808 NADV that H3588 CONJ she H1931 PPRO-3FS was his daughter H3618 - in - law . ) And she said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IPRO wilt thou give H5414 VQY2MS me , that H3588 CONJ thou mayest come in H935 VQY3FS unto H413 PREP me ?
17 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , I H595 PPRO-1MS will send H7971 thee a kid H1423 from H4480 PREP the flock H6629 . And she said H559 W-VQY3MS , Wilt thou give H5414 VQY2MS me a pledge H6162 , till H5704 PREP thou send H7971 it ?
18 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS , What H4100 IGAT pledge H6162 shall I give H5414 thee ? And she said H559 W-VQY3MS , Thy signet H2368 , and thy bracelets H6616 , and thy staff H4294 that H834 RPRO is in thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS . And he gave H5414 W-VQY3MS it her , and came in H935 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her , and she conceived H2029 W-VQY3FS by him .
19 And she arose H6965 , and went away H1980 W-VQQ3FS , and laid by H5493 her veil H6809 from her , and put on H3847 the garments H899 of her widowhood H491 .
20 And Judah H3063 sent H7971 W-VQY3MS the kid H1423 by the hand H3027 B-CFS of his friend H7453 NMS-3MS the Adullamite H5726 , to receive H3947 L-VQFC his pledge H6162 from the woman H802 D-NFS \'s hand H3027 M-GFS : but he found H4672 her not H3808 W-NPAR .
21 Then he asked H7592 W-VQY3MS the men H376 of that place H4725 , saying H559 L-VQFC , Where H346 IGAT is the harlot H6948 , that H1931 PPRO-3FS was openly H5879 by H5921 PREP the way side H1870 D-NMS ? And they said H559 W-VQY3MP , There was H1961 VQQ3FS no H3808 NADV harlot H6948 in this H2088 place .
22 And he returned H7725 to H413 PREP Judah H3063 , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , I cannot H3808 NADV find H4672 her ; and also H1571 W-CONJ the men H376 CMP of the place H4725 D-NMS said H559 W-VQY3MS , that there was H1961 VQQ3FS no H3808 NADV harlot H6948 in this H2088 place .
23 And Judah H3063 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Let her take H3947 it to her , lest H6435 CONJ we be H1961 shamed H937 : behold H2009 IJEC , I sent H7971 this H2088 D-PMS kid H1423 , and thou H859 W-PPRO-2MS hast not H3808 NADV found H4672 her .
24 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS about three H7969 months H2320 after , that it was told H5046 Judah H3063 , saying H559 W-VQY3MS , Tamar H8559 thy daughter H3618 - in - law hath played the harlot H2181 ; and also H1571 W-CONJ , behold H2009 IJEC , she is with child H2030 by whoredom H2183 . And Judah H3063 said H559 W-VQY3MS , Bring her forth H3318 , and let her be burnt H8313 .
25 When she H1931 PPRO-3FS was brought forth H3318 , she H1931 sent H7971 to H413 PREP her father H2524 - in - law , saying H559 L-VQFC , By the man H376 , whose H834 RPRO these H428 PMP are , am I H595 PPRO-1MS with child H2030 : and she said H559 W-VQY3FS , Discern H5234 , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , whose H4310 L-IPRO are these H428 , the signet H2858 , and bracelets H6616 , and staff H4294 .
26 And Judah H3063 acknowledged H5234 them , and said H559 W-VQY3MS , She hath been more righteous H6663 than H4480 M-PREP-1MS I ; because H3588 CONJ that PREP I gave H5414 her not H3808 NADV to Shelah H7956 my son H1121 . And he knew H3045 her again H3254 no H3808 ADV more H5750 ADV .
27 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS in the time H6256 of her travail H3205 , that , behold H2009 IJEC , twins H8380 were in her womb H990 .
28 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , when she travailed H3205 , that the one put out H5414 W-VQY3MS his hand H3027 NFS : and the midwife H3205 took H3947 W-VQY3FS and bound H7194 upon H5921 PREP his hand H3027 CFS-3MS a scarlet thread H8144 , saying H559 L-VQFC , This H2088 DPRO came out H3318 VQQ3MS first H7223 .
29 And it came to pass H1961 W-VQY3MS , as he drew back H7725 his hand H3027 CFS-3MS , that , behold H2009 IJEC , his brother H251 CMS-3MS came out H3318 VQQ3MS : and she said H559 W-VQY3FS , How H4100 IPRO hast thou broken forth H6555 ? this breach H6556 be upon H5921 PREP-2MS thee : therefore his name H8034 CMS-3MS was called H7121 W-VQY3MS Pharez H6557 .
30 And afterward H310 W-ADV came out H3318 VQQ3MS his brother H251 CMS-3MS , that H834 RPRO had the scarlet thread H8144 upon H5921 PREP his hand H3027 CFS-3MS : and his name H8034 CMS-3MS was called H7121 W-VQY3MS Zarah H2226 .
