< Genesis 38 >

1 About that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite.
Бысть же в то время, отиде Иуда от братии своея и прииде к человеку некоему Одолламитину, емуже имя 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 виде тамо Иуда дщерь человека Хананейска, ейже имя Сава: и поят ю, и вниде к ней:
3 So she conceived and gave birth to a son, and Judah named him Er.
и заченши роди сына, и нарече имя ему Ир:
4 Again she conceived and gave birth to a son, and she named him Onan.
и заченши еще роди сына и нарече имя ему Авнан:
5 Then she gave birth to another son and named him Shelah; it was at Chezib that she gave birth to him.
и приложивши роди сына (третияго) и нарече имя Силом: сия же бе в Хасве, егда роди сих.
6 Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
И поя Иуда жену Иру первенцу своему, ейже имя Фамарь.
7 But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; so the LORD put him to death.
Бысть же Ир первенец Иудин зол пред Господем: и уби его Бог.
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.”
Рече же Иуда Авнану: вниди к жене брата твоего и совокупися с нею, и возстави семя брату твоему.
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.
Познав же Авнан, яко не ему будет семя, бысть егда вхождаше к жене брата своего, проливаше (семя) на землю, еже не дати семене брату своему:
10 What he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so He put Onan to death as well.
зло же явися пред Богом, яко сотвори сие: и умертви и сего.
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.
Рече же Иуда Фамари, невестце своей (по смерти дву сынов своих): седи вдовою в дому отца твоего, дондеже велик будет Силом, сын мой. Рече бо (во уме си): да не когда умрет и сей, якоже и братия его. Отшедши же Фамарь, седяше в дому отца своего.
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.
Умножишася же дние, и умре Сава жена Иудина. И утешився Иуда, взыде к стригущым овцы его сам, и Ирас пастырь его Одолламитин, во Фамну.
13 When Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,”
И возвестиша Фамари невестце его, глаголюще: се, свекор твой восходит во Фамну стрищи овцы своя.
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.
Она же свергши ризы вдовства с себе, облечеся в ризу летнюю и украсися, и седе пред враты Енани, яже суть на пути Фамны: ведяше бо, яко велик бысть Силом: сей же не даде ея ему в жену.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute because she had covered her face.
И видев ю Иуда, возмне ю блудницу быти: покры бо лице свое, и не позна ея.
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.
Уклонися же к ней путем и рече ей: попусти ми внити к себе. Не позна бо, яко невестка ему есть. Она же рече: что ми даси, аще внидеши ко мне?
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.”
Он же рече: аз тебе послю козлище коз от овец моих. Она же рече: аще даси ми залог, дондеже пришлеши.
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.
Он же рече: кий залог тебе дам? Она же рече: перстень твой и гривну, и жезл иже в руце твоей. И даде ей, и вниде к ней, и зача во утробе от него.
19 Then Tamar got up and departed. And she removed her veil and put on her widow’s garments again.
И воставши отиде, и сверже ризу летнюю с себе и облечеся в ризы вдовства своего.
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.
Посла же Иуда козлище от коз рукою пастыря своего Одолламитина взяти залог от жены, и не обрете ея.
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.
Вопроси же мужей места того и рече им: где есть блудница бывшая во Енане на распутии? И реша: не бе зде блудница.
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 возвратися ко Иуде и рече: не обретох: и человецы места того глаголют: несть зде блудницы.
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.”
Рече же Иуда: да имать та: но да не когда посмеются нам: аз убо послах козлище сие, ты же не обрел еси.
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!”
Бысть же по трех месяцех, поведаша Иуде, глаголюще: соблуди Фамарь невестка твоя, и се, во утробе имать от блуда. Рече же Иуда: изведите ю, и да сожгут ю.
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?”
Она же ведома посла к свекру своему, глаголющи: от человека, егоже сия суть, аз во утробе имам. И рече: познай, чий перстень и гривна и жезл сей.
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.
Позна же Иуда и рече: оправдася Фамарь паче мене, яко не дах ея Силому сыну моему. И не приложи ктому познати ю.
27 When the time came for Tamar to give birth, there were twins in her womb.
Бысть же егда раждаше, и беста близнята во утробе ея.
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.
Бысть же в рождении ея, един произнесе руку: вземши же баба навяза на руку его червлень, глаголющи: сей изыдет первый.
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.
Егда же вовлече руку, и абие изыде брат его. Она же рече: что пресечеся тебе ради преграждение? И прозва имя ему Фарес.
30 Then his brother came out with the scarlet thread around his wrist, and he was named Zerah.
И посем изыде брат его, емуже бе на руце его червлень: и прозва имя ему Зара.
