Genesis 38
1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
I taua wa ka maunu atu a Hura I roto i ona tuakana, a peka ana ki tetahi Aturami, ko Hira tona ingoa.
2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua; and he took her, and went in unto her.
A kitea ana e Hura i reira te tamahine a tetahi Kanaani, ko Huaha tona ingoa: na ka tango ia i a ia, a haere ana ki roto, ki a ia.
3 And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name Er.
Na ka hapu ia, a ka whanau he tama; a huaina iho tona ingoa ko Ere:
4 And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.
Na ka hapu ano ia, a ka whanau he tama; a huaina iho tona ingoa ko Onana.
5 And she yet again bore a son, and called his name Shelah; and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
A ka hapu ano ia, a ka whanau he tama; a huaina iho tona ingoa ko Heraha: i Ketipi hoki te tane i tona whanautanga.
6 And Judah took a wife for Er his first-born, and her name was Tamar.
Na ka tangohia e Hura he wahine ma Ere, ma tana matamua, ko tona ingoa ko Tamara.
7 And Er, Judah's first-born, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.
He tangata kino a Ere matamua a Hura ki ta Ihowa titiro; a whakamatea ana ia e Ihowa.
8 And Judah said unto Onan: 'Go in unto thy brother's wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her, and raise up seed to thy brother.'
Na ka mea a Hura ki a Onana, Haere ki roto, ki te wahine a tou tuakana, hei whakakapi mo te whawharua, kia whai uri ai tou tuakana.
9 And Onan knew that the seed would not be his; and it came to pass when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest he should give seed to his brother.
I mohio ano a Onana e kore e waiho te uri mona; a, i tona haerenga ki te wahine a tona tuakana, na ka tukua e ia kia heke atu ki te whenua, kei hoatu e ia he uri ki tona tuakana.
10 And the thing which he did was evil in the sight of the LORD; and He slew him also.
He kino hoki tana mahi ki ta Ihowa titiro: na ka whakamatea hoki ia.
11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law: 'Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown up'; for he said: 'Lest he also die, like his brethren.' And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
Katahi ka mea a Hura ki a Tamara, ki tana hunaonga, Me noho pouaru koe ki te whare o tou papa, kia kaumatua ra ano a Heraha, taku tama; i mea hoki ia, Kei mate ano hoki tenei, kei pera me ona tuakana. Na ka haere a Tamara, a noho ana i te whare o tona papa.
12 And in process of time Shua's daughter, the wife of Judah, died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheep-shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
A, ka maha nga ra, ka mate te tamahine a Huaha, te wahine a Hura; a ka marie a Hura, a ka haere raua ko tona hoa ko Hira Aturami ki runga ki Timinata, ki ana kaikutikuti hipi.
13 And it was told Tamar, saying: 'Behold, thy father-in-law goeth up to Timnah to shear his sheep.'
A ka korerotia ki a Tamara, ka meatia, Ko tou hungawai tenei te haere ake nei ki Timinata, ki te kutikuti i ana hipi.
14 And she put off from her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the entrance of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she was not given unto him to wife.
Na ka whakarerea atu e ia ona kakahu pouaru, ka hipoki i a ia ki tona arai, roropi tonu ki a ia, a ka noho i te tomokanga ki Enaima, i te huarahi ki Timinata; i kite hoki ia kua kaumatua a Heraha, a kahore ano ia i hoatu hei wahine mana.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a harlot; for she had covered her face.
Na, ka kite a Hura i a ia, hua noa ia he wahine kairau; no te mea i hipokina tona mata.
16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said: 'Come, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee'; for he knew not that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said: 'What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?'
Na ka peka ia ki te ara ki a ia, ka mea, Tukua atu ahau, ne? kia haere atu ki a koe; kihai hoki ia i mohio ko tana hunaonga ia. A ka mea ia, He aha tau e homai ai ki ahau, ki te haere mai koe ki ahau?
17 And he said: 'I will send thee a kid of the goats from the flock.' And she said: 'Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?'
A ka mea ia, Ka tukua atu e ahau tetahi kuao koati o te kahui. A ka mea ia, Ka homai ranei e koe tetahi taunaha ki ahau, kia tukua mai ra ano taua mea e koe?
18 And he said: 'What pledge shall I give thee?' And she said: 'Thy signet and thy cord, and thy staff that is in thy hand.' And he gave them to her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
A ka mea ia, He aha te taunaha e hoatu e ahau ki a koe? Ka mea ia, Ko tou hiri, me au tau, me tau tokotoko i tou ringa. Na ka hoatu e ia ki a ia, a ka haere atu ia ki a ia, a ka hapu ia i a ia.
19 And she arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
Na ka whakatika ia, a haere ana, whakarerea ana e ia tona arai, a kakahuria iho ona kakahu pouaru.
20 And Judah sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand; but he found her not.
Na ka hoatu te kuao koati e Hura kia kawea e tona hoa e te Aturami, ki te tiki i te taunaha i te ringa o te wahine; a kihai ia i kitea.
21 Then he asked the men of her place, saying: 'Where is the harlot, that was at Enaim by the wayside?' And they said: 'There hath been no harlot here.'
A ka ui ia ki nga tangata o taua wahi, ka mea, Kei hea te wahine kairau i Enaima nei i te taha o te ara? A ka mea ratou, Kahore he wahine kairau i konei.
22 And he returned to Judah, and said: 'I have not found her; and also the men of the place said: There hath been no harlot here.'
Na ka hoki ia ki a Hura, ka mea, Kahore ia i kitea e ahau; e mea ana hoki nga tangata o tera wahi, kahore he wahine kairau i reira.
23 And Judah said: 'Let her take it, lest we be put to shame; behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.'
Na ka mea a Hura, Tukua kia tangohia e ia, kei tawaia taua: titiro hoki, kua tukua atu nei e ahau te kuao nei, a kihai ia i kitea e koe.
24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying: 'Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath played the harlot; and moreover, behold, she is with child by harlotry.' And Judah said: 'Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.'
A ka toru nga marama, na ka korerotia ki a Hura, ka meatia, Kua kairau a Tamara, tau hunaonga; kua hapu ano hoki ia i ona kairautanga. A ka mea a Hura, Kawea ki waho, kia tahuna.
25 When she was brought forth, she sent to her father-in-law, saying: 'By the man, whose these are, am I with child'; and she said: 'Discern, I pray thee, whose are these, the signet, and the cords, and the staff.'
A, ka kawea ia ki waho, ka tono tangata ia ki tona hungawai, ka mea, Na te tangata nana enei mea toku hapu: i mea ano ia, Tena, tirohia, na wai enei, te hiri nei, me nga tau, me te tokotoko.
26 And Judah acknowledged them, and said: 'She is more righteous than I; forasmuch as I gave her not to Shelah my son.' And he knew her again no more.
Na ka mohiotia e Hura, a ka mea ia, Nui atu tona tika i toku; kihai hoki ia i hoatu e ahau ki a Heraha, ki taku tama. A kihai ia i mohio ki a ia i muri iho.
27 And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.
A ka taka ki te wa e whanau ai ia, na, he mahanga kei roto i tona kopu.
28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that one put out a hand; and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying: 'This came out first.'
A, i tona whanautanga, na ka torona te ringa o tetahi: na ka mau te kaiwhakawhanau ki te miro whero, a herea ana ki tona ringa, ka mea, Ko tenei i puta mai i mua.
29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold his brother came out; and she said: 'Wherefore hast thou made a breach for thyself?' Therefore his name was called Perez.
A, i tana whakahokinga atu i tona ringa, na ka puta mai tona tuakana; a ka mea ia, Ka tae tou pakaru mai! nau te pakaru mai: koia i huaina ai tona ingoa ko Parete.
30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand; and his name was called Zerah.
A muri iho ka puta tona teina, i herea nei tona ringa ki te miro whero: a ka huaina tona ingoa ko Teraha.
