Genesis 38
1 And at that time Iudah went downe from his brethren, and turned in to a man called Hirah an Adullamite.
Ary tamin’ izany andro izany Joda dia nidina niala teo amin’ ny rahalahiny ka lasa nanatona ny lehilahy Adolamita anankiray. Hira no anarany.
2 And Iudah sawe there the daughter of a man called Suah a Canaanite: and he tooke her to wife, and went in vnto her.
Ary teo no nahitan’ i Joda ny zanakavavin’ i Soa, lehilahy Kananita anankiray; dia naka azy izy ka nanambady azy.
3 So she conceiued and bare a sonne, and he called his name Er.
Dia nanan’ anaka ravehivavy ka niteraka zazalahy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Era.
4 And she conceiued againe, and bare a sonne, and she called his name Onan.
Dia nanan’ anaka indray izy ka niteraka zazalahy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Onana.
5 Moreouer she bare yet a sonne, whome she called Shelah: and Iudah was at Chezib when she bare him.
Dia nanan’ anaka indray koa izy ka niteraka zazalahy; ary ny anarany nataony hoe Sela; ary Joda nitoetra tany Keziba tamin’ ny niterahan’ ny vadiny an’ i Sela.
6 Then Iudah tooke a wife to Er his first borne sonne whose name was Tamar.
Ary Joda naka vady ho an’ i Era lahimatoany, Tamara no anarany.
7 Now Er the first borne of Iudah was wicked in the sight of the Lord: therefore the Lord slewe him.
Fa ratsy fanahy teo imason’ i Jehovah Era, lahimatoan’ i Joda; dia novonoin’ i Jehovah izy.
8 Then Iudah said to Onan, Goe in vnto thy brothers wife, and do the office of a kinsman vnto her, and raise vp seede vnto thy brother.
Ary hoy Joda tamin’ i Onana: Vadio ny vadin’ ny rahalahinao, ka ento loloha izy, dia velomy maso ny rahalahinao.
9 And Onan knewe that the seede should not be his: therefore when he went in vnto his brothers wife, he spilled it on the grounde, least he should giue seede vnto his brother.
Ary fantatr’ i Onana fa tsy ho azy tsinona ny zaza; koa raha nandry tamin’ ny vadin’ ny rahalahiny izy, dia nandraraka tamin’ ny tany mba tsy hiterahany zanaka ho an’ ny rahalahiny.
10 And it was wicked in the eyes of the Lord, which he did: wherefore he slewe him also.
Ary ratsy teo imason’ i Jehovah izay nataony; ka dia novonoiny koa izy.
11 Then said Iudah to Tamar his daughter in lawe, Remaine a widowe in thy fathers house, till Shelah my sonne growe vp (for he thought thus, Least he die as well as his brethren.) So Tamar went and dwelt in her fathers house.
Ary hoy Joda tamin’ i Tamara vinantoni-vavy: Tomoera ho mpitondratena ao an-tranon-drainao mandra-pahalehiben’ i Sela zanako-lahy (fa hoy izy: Fandrao maty koa tahaka ny rahalahiny izy); dia nandeha Tamara ka nitoetra tao an-tranon-drainy.
12 And in processe of time also the daughter of Shuah Iudahs wife dyed. Then Iudah, when he had left mourning, went vp to his sheepe sherers to Timnah, he, and his neighbour Hirah the Adullamite.
Ary rehefa ela, dia maty ny vadin’ i Joda, dia ilay zanakavavin’ i Soa; ary rehefa nionona ny alahelon’ i Joda, dia niakatra tany amin’ ny mpanety ondriny tany Timna izy sy Hira Adolamita sakaizany.
13 And it was tolde Tamar, saying, beholde, thy father in lawe goeth vp to Timnah, to shere his sheepe.
Dia nisy nanambara tamin’ i Tamara hoe Indro, ny rafozanao miakatra ho any Timna hanety ny ondriny.
14 Then she put her widowes garments off from her, and couered her with a vaile, and wrapped her selfe, and sate downe in Pethah-enaim, which is by the way to Timnah, because she sawe that Shelah was growen, and she was not giuen vnto him to wife.
Ary nanaisotra ny akanjony fanaon’ ny mpitondratena izy, dia nisarona fisalobonana ka nisalobona, dia nipetraka teo am-bavahadin’ i Enaima, izay eo amin’ ny lalana mankany Timna; satria efa hitan’ i Tamara fa efa lehibe Sela, nefa tsy mbola nomen’ i Joda ho vadin’ i Sela izy.
15 When Iudah sawe her, he iudged her an whore: for she had couered her face.
Ary hitan’ i Joda izy ka nataony fa vehivavy janga, satria efa nanarona ny tavany izy.
16 And he turned to the way towardes her, and saide, Come, I pray thee, let me lie with thee. (for he knewe not that she was his daughter in lawe) And she answered, What wilt thou giue me for to lie with me?
Dia nivily nanatona azy teo amoron-dalana Joda ka nanao hoe: Aoka mba handry aminao aho (fa tsy fantany ho vinantony izy); dia hoy kosa ravehivavy: Inona ary no homenao ahy, raha handry amiko ianao?
17 Then said he, I will sende thee a kid of the goates from the flocke. and she said, Well, if thou wilt giue me a pledge, till thou sende it.
Dia hoy izy: Hampanatitra zanak’ osy avy amin’ ny ondry aman’ osy aho. Fa hoy kosa ravehivavy: Hanome fampitanana va ianao mandra-pampanatitrao azy?
18 Then he saide, What is the pledge that I shall giue thee? And she answered, Thy signet, and thy cloke, and thy staffe that is in thine hande. So he gaue it her, and lay by her, and she was with childe by him.
Ary hoy izy: Inona no fampitanana homeko anao? Ary hoy ravehivavy: Ny fanombohan-kasenao sy ny kofehinao ary iny tehinao eny an-tananao iny. Ary nomeny azy ireny, dia nandry taminy izy, ka nanan’ anaka taminy ravehivavy.
19 Then she rose, and went and put her vaile from her and put on her widowes raiment.
Ary niainga ravehivavy ka lasa nandeha, dia nanala ny fisalobonana izay notafiny ka niakanjo ny akanjony fanaon’ ny mpitondratena indray.
20 Afterwarde Iudah sent a kid of the goates by the hande of his neighbour the Adullamite, for to receiue his pledge from the womans hand: but he found her not.
Dia nampitondrain’ i Joda ilay Adolamita sakaizany ny zanak’ osy, hangalany ilay fampitanana amin-dravehivavy; kanjo tsy hitany izy.
21 Then asked he the men of that place, saying, Where is ye whore, that sate in Enaim by the way side? And they answered, There was no whore here.
Dia nanontany ny olona teo amin’ ny fonenan-dravehivavy izy ka nanao hoe: Aiza moa ilay vehivavy janga izay tamoron-dalana teo Enaima? Fa hoy ny olona: Tsy nisy vehivavy janga teo.
22 He came therefore to Iudah againe, and said, I can not finde her, and also the men of the place said, There was no whore there.
Dia niverina tany amin’ i Joda izy ka nanao hoe: Tsy nahita azy aho; ary nolazain’ ny olona tompon-tany fa tsy nisy vehivavy janga teo.
23 Then Iudah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: beholde, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
Dia hoy Joda: Aoka ho lasany ho azy, fandrao ho afa-baraka isika; indro, efa nampanateriko ity zanak’ osy ity, nefa ianao tsy nahita an-dravehivavy.
24 Now after three moneths, one tolde Iudah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the whore, and lo, with playing the whore, she is great with childe. Then Iudah saide, Bring ye her foorth and let her be burnt.
Ary rehefa afaka tokony ho telo volana, dia nisy nanambara tamin’ i Joda hoe: Efa nijangajanga Tamara vinantovavinao; ka indro, efa manan’ anaka tamin’ ny fijangajangana izy. Dia hoy Joda: Avoahy izy hodorana.
25 When she was brought foorth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the man, vnto whom these things pertaine, am I with childe: and saide also, Looke, I pray thee, whose these are, the seale, and the cloke, and the staffe.
Ary rehefa navoaka izy, dia naniraka tany amin’ ny rafozany ka nanao hoe: Ny lehilahy izay tompon’ ireto no nananako anaka; ary hoy koa izy: Masìna ianao, fantaro izay tompon’ ireto fanombohan-kase sy kofehy ary tehina ireto.
26 Then Iudah knewe them, and said, She is more righteous then I: for she hath done it because I gaue her not to Shelah my sonne. So he lay with her no more.
Dia nahafantatra ireo Joda ka nanao hoe: Marina noho izaho izy, satria tsy nomeko ho vadin’ i Sela zanako. Dia tsy nandry taminy intsony izy.
27 Now, when the time was come that she should be deliuered, beholde, there were twinnes in her wombe.
Ary tamin’ ny andro niterahany, indro, nisy zaza kambana tao an-kibony.
28 And when she was in trauell, the one put out his hand: and the midwife tooke and bound a red threde about his hand, saying, This is come out first.
Ary raha niteraka izy, dia niseho ny tanan’ ny anankiray, ary naka kofehy mena ny mpampivelona, ka nafehiny tamin’ ny tànany, sady hoy izy: Ity no niseho voalohany.
29 But when he plucked his hand backe againe, loe, his brother came out, and the midwife said, How hast thou broken the breach vpon thee? and his name was called Pharez.
Ary rehefa nahemony ny tànany, dia, indro, teraka ny rahalahiny; ary hoy ny mpampivelona: Ahoana no nibosesehanao? dia nataony hoe Fareza no anarany.
30 And afterward came out his brother that had the red threde about his hande, and his name was called Zarah.
Ary rehefa afaka izany, dia teraka koa ny rahalahiny, izay nisy ilay kofehy mena tamin’ ny tànany; dia nataony hoe Zera no anarany.
