Genesis 38
1 About that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite.
А у то време догоди се, те Јуда отиде од браће своје и уврати се код неког Одоламејца, коме име беше Ирас.
2 There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her.
И онде виде Јуда кћер неког Хананејца, коме име беше Сава, и узе је и леже с њом;
3 So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and Judah named him Er.
И она затрудне и роди сина, коме надеде име Ир.
4 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Onan.
И опет затрудневши роди сина, коме надеде име Авнан.
5 Then she gave birth to another son and named him Shelah; it was at Chezib that she gave birth to him.
И опет роди сина, и надеде му име Силом; а Јуда беше у Хасви кад она тога роди.
6 Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
И Јуда ожени првенца свог Ира девојком по имену Тамара.
7 But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; so the LORD put him to death.
Али Ир првенац Јудин беше неваљао пред Господом, и уби га Господ.
8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife. Perform your duty as her brother-in-law and raise up offspring for your brother.”
А Јуда рече Авнану: Уђи к жени брата свог и ожени се њом на име братово, да подигнеш семе брату свом.
9 But Onan knew that the offspring would not belong to him; so whenever he would sleep with his brother’s wife, he would spill his seed on the ground so that he would not produce offspring for his brother.
А Авнан, знајући да неће бити његов пород, кад леже са женом брата свог просипаше на земљу, да не роди деце брату свом.
10 What he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so He put Onan to death as well.
Али Господу не би мило што чињаше, те уби и њега.
11 Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.
И Јуда рече Тамари снаси својој: Остани удовицом у кући оца свог докле одрасте Силом син мој. Јер говораше: Да не умре и он као браћа му. И отиде Тамара, и живеше у кући оца свог.
12 After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah.
А кад прође много времена, умре кћи Савина, жена Јудина. И кад се Јуда утеши, пође у Тамну к људима што му стрижаху овце, сам с Ирасом пријатељем својим Одоламејцем.
13 When Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,”
И јавише Тамари говорећи: Ето свекар твој иде у Тамну да стриже овце своје.
14 she removed her widow’s garments, covered her face with a veil to disguise herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that although Shelah had grown up, she had not been given to him as a wife.
А она скиде са себе удовичко рухо своје, и узе покривало и покри лице, и седе на раскршће на путу који иде у Тамну. Јер виде да је Силом одрастао, а њу још не удаше за њ.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute because she had covered her face.
А Јуда када виде, помисли да је курва, јер беше покрила лице своје.
16 Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.” “What will you give me for sleeping with you?” she inquired.
Па сврну с пута к њој и рече јој: Пусти да легнем с тобом. Јер није познао да му је снаха. А она рече: Шта ћеш ми дати да легнеш са мном?
17 “I will send you a young goat from my flock,” Judah answered. But she replied, “Only if you leave me something as a pledge until you send it.”
А он рече: Послаћу ти јаре из стада. А она рече: Али да ми даш залог докле га не пошаљеш.
18 “What pledge should I give you?” he asked. She answered, “Your seal and your cord, and the staff in your hand.” So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
А он рече: Какав залог да ти дам? А она рече: Ето, прстен и рубац, и штап што ти је у руци. И он јој даде, те леже с њом, и она затрудне од њега.
19 Then Tamar got up and departed. And she removed her veil and put on her widow’s garments again.
После уставши Тамара отиде и скиде покривало са себе и обуче удовичко рухо.
20 Now when Judah sent his friend Hirah the Adullamite with the young goat to collect the items he had left with the woman, he could not find her.
А Јуда посла јаре по пријатељу свом Одоламејцу да му донесе натраг од жене залог. Али је он не нађе.
21 He asked the men of that place, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “No shrine prostitute has been here,” they answered.
Па питаше људе по оном месту где је она била говорећи: Где је она курва што је била на раскршћу на овом путу? А они рекоше: Није овде било курве.
22 So Hirah returned to Judah and said, “I could not find her, and furthermore, the men of that place said, ‘No shrine prostitute has been here.’”
И врати се к Јуди и рече: Не нађох је, него још рекоше мештани: Није овде било курве.
23 “Let her keep the items,” Judah replied. “Otherwise we will become a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you could not find her.”
А Јуда рече: Нека јој, да се не срамотимо; ја сам слао јаре, али је ти не нађе.
24 About three months later, Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has prostituted herself, and now she is pregnant.” “Bring her out!” Judah replied. “Let her be burned to death!”
А кад прође до три месеца дана, јавише Јуди говорећи: Тамара снаха твоја учини прељубу, и ево затрудне од прељубе. А Јуда рече: Изведите је да се спали.
25 As she was being brought out, Tamar sent a message to her father-in-law: “I am pregnant by the man to whom these items belong.” And she added, “Please examine them. Whose seal and cord and staff are these?”
А кад је поведоше, посла к свекру свом и поручи: С човеком чије је ово затруднела сам. И рече: Тражи чији је овај прстен и рубац и штап.
26 Judah recognized the items and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not have relations with her again.
А Јуда позна и рече: Правија је од мене, јер је не дадох сину свом Силому. И више не леже с њом.
27 When the time came for Tamar to give birth, there were twins in her womb.
А кад дође време да роди, а то близанци у утроби њеној.
28 And as she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it around his wrist. “This one came out first,” she announced.
И кад се порађаше, једно дете помоли руку, а бабица узе и веза му црвен конац око руке говорећи: Овај је први.
29 But when he pulled his hand back and his brother came out, she said, “You have broken out first!” So he was named Perez.
Али он увуче руку, и гле изађе брат његов, а она рече: Како продре? Продирање нека ти буде. И надеше му име Фарес.
30 Then his brother came out with the scarlet thread around his wrist, and he was named Zerah.
А после изађе брат му, коме око руке беше црвени конац, и надеше му име Зара.
