< Genesis 38 >
1 Around this time, Judah left his brothers and set up his tents at Adullam, near to a local man named Hirah.
Amalu, Yuda da yolalali amo yolesili, ea na: iyado Hila (Adala: me moilai dunu) amo ea moilaiga esalumusa: asi.
2 There Judah happened to see the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua and married her. He slept with her,
Amoga e da Ga: ina: ne a: fini, (Siua ea mano) amo gousa: i. Amo a: fini e da lai dagoi.
3 and she became pregnant and had a son he named Er.
E da ema dunu mano lai amo ea dio E.
4 She became pregnant again and had a son she named Onan.
Yuda idua da bu abula agui ba: i. E da eno dunu mano lai. E da ema dio asuli amo Ouna: ne.
5 Then she had another son she named Shelah who was born in Kezib.
Amalalu, e da dunu mano eno lai amo Sila. Amo mano da lalelegeloba, Yuda da A: gasibi moilaiga esalebe ba: i.
6 Much later, Judah arranged for Er, his firstborn son, to marry a woman named Tamar.
Ea magobo mano E, amo ea lama: ne, Yuda da a: fini ea dio amo Da: ima ilegei.
7 But Er did what was evil in the Lord's sight, so the Lord put him to death.
Be E (Yuda ea mano) da wadela: i hamosu dunu. Hina Gode da ea hou hahawane hame ba: i. Amaiba: le, Gode da E fane legei dagoi.
8 Judah told Onan, “Go and sleep with your brother's wife to fulfill the requirements of a brother-in-law to have children on behalf of your brother.”
Amalalu, Yuda da E ea eya Ouna: ne ema amane sia: i, “Di amola dia ola didalo amo gilisili golama. Dia ola da mano buga: i ba: ma: ne, houdafa ema hamoma.”
9 Onan realized that any children he had wouldn't be his own, so whenever he slept with his brother's wife he made sure she wouldn't become pregnant by withdrawing and spilling his semen on the ground. In this way he prevented any children being born on behalf of his brother.
Be Ouna: ne da amo mano lalelegemu da ea mano hame ba: mu amo dawa: i galu. Amaiba: le, e da ea ola didalo amoga gilisisia, e da ea ami udigili osoboga sogadigi. Ea ola mano buga: i da hame lalelegema: ne, agoane hamoi.
10 But what he did was evil in the Lord's sight, so he also put Onan to death.
Hina Gode da amo hou hahawane hame ba: i. Amaiba: le, Gode da Ouna: ne amola fane legei.
11 Then Judah told his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Go to your father's house and live there as a widow until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “Maybe he'll die too, just like his brothers.” So Tamar went and stayed in her father's house.
Amalalu, Yuda da ea awa Da: ima ema amane sia: i, “Di da dia ada amo ea diasuga buhagima. Nagofe Sila amo da asigilama: ne, ouesaloma.” E da Sila amola ea ola defele Godema fane legemu amo beda: iba: le amane sia: i. Amalu, Da: ima da ea diasuga buhagi.
12 A long time later Judah's wife, the daughter of Shua, died. After Judah had finished the time of mourning, he went to visit his sheepshearers at Timnah with his friend Hirah from Adullam.
Fa: no agoane, Yuda ea uda da bogoi. E da didigia: lalu, Yuda amola ea na: iyado Hila (Adala: me dunu) da Dimina sogega asi. Amoga Yuda ea sibi da hinabo damunanebe ba: i.
13 Tamar was told, “Your father-in-law is going to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
Dunu eno da Da: imama ea awa Yuda amo da Dimina ea sibi hinabo damumusa: ahoanebe olelei dagoi.
14 So she took off her widow's clothes and covered herself with a veil, disguising herself. She sat down beside the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. She had realized that even though Shelah had now grown up, nothing had been done about her marrying him.
Amaiba: le, Da: ima da ea didalo abula afadenene, ea odagi amo abula sawa: figisu amoga dedebole, Ina: ime moilai logo holeiga fi esalu. Ina: ime da Dimina ahoasu logoga dialu. Yuda ea ufi mano Sila, da asigilai dagoi, be e da Da: ima hame lai, amo Da: ima da dawa: i galu.
15 Judah saw her and thought she must be a prostitute because she had veiled her face.
Yuda da Da: ima ba: beba: le, ea odagi da dedeboiba: le, e da aie heda: i uda amo dawa: i galu.
16 He went over to her at the side of the road and said, “I want to sleep with you.” He didn't know she was his daughter-in-law. “What will you give me if I let you sleep with me?” she asked.
Yuda da logo bega: ema asili, amane adole ba: i, “Defea! Di bidi lamu defei da adila: ?” (Amo da ea awa e da hame dawa: i galu.) Da: ima da ema amane adole ba: i, “Di da nama adi ima: bela: ?”
17 “I'll send you a young goat from my flock,” he replied. “What guarantee will you give me to make sure you'll send it?” she asked.
E bu adole i, “Na da goudi mano dima iasimu.” Da: ima da amane sia: i, “Defea! Be liligi fonobahadi amo goudi fa: no iasimu ilegema: ne hidadea nama ima.”
18 “What guarantee do I have to give you?” he asked. “Your signet seal and its cord, and your walking stick that you're holding,” she replied. He handed them over to her. He slept with her and she became pregnant.
E bu adole ba: i, “Na da adi ima: bela: ?” E bu adole i, “Dia ilegei hamomusa: gobele ga: su amola ea efe amola dia dagulu di gaguli mabe amo nama ima.” Amo liligi e da Da: imama i. Amalalu, ela da gilisili golai, amola Da: ima da abula agui ba: i.
19 She left, went home, took off her veil, and put on her widow's clothes.
Da: ima da ea diasuga asili, ea abula sawa: figisu fadegale, ea didalo eboboi abula bu sali.
20 Judah sent his friend Hirah from Adullam with a young goat to get back his belongings he'd left as a guarantee from the woman, but he couldn't find her.
Yuda da goudi iasima: ne, amola ea liligi i amo Da: imama bu samogema: ne, ea na: iyado Hila amo asunasi. Be Hila da hogoi helele, amo uda hame ba: i.
21 Hirah asked the men there, “Where's the cult prostitute that sits by the entrance road to Enaim?” “There's no cult prostitute here,” they answered.
E da Ina: ime dunu ilima amane adole ba: i, “Aie heda: i uda amo da logo bega: esalu, amo da habila: ?” Ilia bu adole i, “Guiguda: da aie heda: i uda hamedafa esalu.”
22 Hirah went back to Judah and told him, “I couldn't find her, and the men there said, ‘There's no cult prostitute here.’”
E da Yudama buhagili amane sia: i, “Na da hogoi helele hame ba: i. Moilai dunu da aie heda: i uda hamedafa esalu sia: i.”
23 “Let her keep what I gave her,” Judah replied. “We'll look ridiculous to people if we go on searching. In any case I did try to send her the young goat as promised but you couldn't find her.”
Yuda da amane sia: i, “Defea! Mae dawa: ma! E da na liligi lamu da defea. Dunu eno da ninima oufesega: mu da defea hame. Na da ema bidi imunusa: dawa: i galu. Be di da e hame ba: i.”
24 Then about three months later Judah was told, “Tamar your daughter-in-law has had sex like a prostitute and now as a result she's pregnant!” “Bring her out and burn her to death!” Judah ordered.
Oubi udiana asili, dunu afae da Yudama amane sia: i, “Dia awa Da: ima da wadela: le hamoi. E da wali abula agui ba: sa.” Yuda da amane sia: i, “E gadili oule asili, bogoma: ne laluga ulugagima.”
25 As she was brought out, she sent a message to her father-in-law, saying, “I'm pregnant by the man who owns these things.” Then she added, “Please look carefully at this signet seal and its cord and walking stick. Who do they belong to?”
Ilia da e gadili gaguli asili, e da ea awa Yuda ema sia: adole iasi, “Amo liligi amo gobele ga: su, ea efe amola dagulu ba: ma! Amo liligi ea eda amo hamoiba: le na da abula agui ba: sa.”
26 Judah recognized them right away and said, “She has honored the law more than I have, because I didn't give her in marriage to my son Shelah.” He didn't sleep with Tamar again.
Yuda da amo liligi da ea liligi dawa: i galu. E amane sia: i, “Dafawane! Ea hou da defea. Nisu da wadela: le hamoi. Na gofe Sila amo e lama: ne sia: mu da defea galu.” Amalalu, Yuda da Da: imama bu hamedafa gilisili golai.
27 When the time came for Tamar to give birth, she was found to be carrying twins.
Ea mano lamu eso da doaga: loba, e da mano aduna lamu agoane ba: i.
28 One baby put out his hand, and the midwife tied a scarlet thread around on his wrist and said, “This one came out first.”
E da mano lalaloba, mano afae da ea lobo gadili ligiagai. Mano lasu fidisu uda da amoga yoi efe la: gili amane sia: i, “Amo da magobo lalelegei.”
29 But then he pulled back his hand and his brother was born, she said, “How did you burst out?” So he was named Perez.
Be e da ea lobo bu hiougia ganone amola ea na: iyado da magobo lalelegei. Amalalu, mano lasu fidisu uda da amane sia: i, “Di da agoane gadili bosona asi!” Amaiba: le, ilia da ema Bilese (gadili bosona ahoa) dio asuli.
30 Then his brother with the scarlet thread on his wrist was born. He was named Zerah.
Amalalu, ea eya amo ea lobo da haliga: me efe la: gi, amo da lalelegei. Ilia da ema dio amo Sila (eso mabe haliga: i ba: sa) asuli.
