Genesis 38
1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and he pitched his tent with a certain Adullamite whose name was Chirah.
Ní àkókò náà, Juda lọ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ láti lọ dúró lọ́dọ̀ ọkùnrin ará Adullamu kan tí ń jẹ́ Hira.
2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shua; and he took her, and went in unto her.
Juda sì pàdé ọmọbìnrin Kenaani kan níbẹ̀ ẹni ti orúkọ rẹ̀ ń jẹ́ Ṣua. Ó sì fi ṣe aya, ó sì bá a lòpọ̀;
3 And she conceived, and bore a son; and he called his name 'Er.
ó sì lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin kan, tí ó sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Eri.
4 And she conceived again, and bore a son; and she called his name Onan.
Ó sì tún lóyún, ó sì bí ọmọkùnrin, ó sì sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Onani.
5 And she again bore another son; and she called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
Ó sì tún bí ọmọkùnrin mìíràn, ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Ṣela. Ní Kesibu ni ó wà nígbà tí ó bí i.
6 And Judah took a wife for 'Er his first-born, whose name was Tamar.
Juda sì fẹ́ aya fún Eri, àkọ́bí rẹ̀, orúkọ aya náà ni Tamari.
7 And 'Er, Judah's first-born, was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord; and the Lord slew him.
Ṣùgbọ́n Eri àkọ́bí Juda ṣe ènìyàn búburú níwájú Olúwa, Ọlọ́run sì pa á.
8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and take her, as her brother-in-law, and raise up seed to thy brother.
Nígbà náà ni Juda wí fún Onani, “Bá aya arákùnrin rẹ lòpọ̀, kí o ṣe ojúṣe rẹ fun un gẹ́gẹ́ bí àbúrò ọkọ, kí ó ba à le bí ọmọ fún un ní orúkọ arákùnrin rẹ.”
9 Onan thus knew that the seed should not be his, and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, so as not to give seed unto his brother.
Ṣùgbọ́n Onani mọ̀ pé àwọn ọmọ náà kì yóò jẹ́ ti òun, nítorí náà ni gbogbo ìgbà tí ó bá wọlé tọ aya arákùnrin rẹ̀ lọ, ilẹ̀ ni ó ń da nǹkan ọkùnrin rẹ̀ sí, kí ó má bá a bímọ fún arákùnrin rẹ̀.
10 And the thing which he did was displeasing in the eyes of the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.
Ohun tí ó ń ṣe yìí burú lójú Olúwa, ó sì pa òun náà pẹ̀lú.
11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown; for he thought, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brothers have done. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
Nígbà náà ni Juda wí fún Tamari, ìyàwó ọmọ rẹ̀ pé, “Lọ máa gbé bí opó ní ilé baba rẹ, títí tí Ṣela yóò fi dàgbà ó lérò pé òun náà lè kú bí àwọn arákùnrin rẹ̀ tókù.” Nígbà náà ni Tamari ń lọ gbé ilé baba rẹ̀.
12 And many days had elapsed when the daughter of Shua, Judah's wife, died; and after Judah was comforted, he went up unto his sheep-shearers, he and his friend Chirah the Adullamite, to Timnah.
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà pípẹ́, ìyàwó Juda, ọmọbìnrin Ṣua sì kú, nígbà tí ọjọ́ ọ̀fọ̀ Juda sì pé, ó gòkè lọ sí Timna, sí ọ̀dọ̀ àwọn tí ń bá a rẹ́run àgùntàn rẹ̀, Hira ará Adullamu tí í ṣe ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀ sì bá a lọ.
13 And it was told unto Tamar, saying, Behold, thy father-in-law goeth up to Timnah to shear his sheep.
Nígbà tí ẹnìkan sọ fún Tamari pé, “Baba ọkọ ọ̀ rẹ̀ wà ní ọ̀nà àjò rẹ̀ sí Timna láti rẹ́run àgùntàn rẹ̀.”
14 And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered herself with a vail, and concealed her face, and seated herself at the cross-road, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him for wife.
Ó bọ́ aṣọ opó rẹ̀, ó sì fi ìbòjú bo ojú ara rẹ̀ kí wọn má ba à mọ̀ ọ́n. Ó sì jókòó sí ẹnu-bodè Enaimu, èyí tí ó wà ní ọ̀nà Timna. Nítorí ó rí i wí pé, bí ó tilẹ̀ jẹ́ pé Ṣela ti dàgbà, síbẹ̀, a kò fi òun fún un gẹ́gẹ́ bí aya.
15 And Judah saw her and thought her to be a harlot; because she had covered her face.
Nígbà tí Juda rí i, ó rò pé panṣágà ni, nítorí ó ti bo ojú rẹ̀.
16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, 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?
Láìmọ̀ pé, aya ọmọ òun ní í ṣe, ó yà tọ̀ ọ́ ní ẹ̀bá ọ̀nà, ó wí pé, “Wá kí èmi kí ó lè wọlé tọ̀ ọ́.” Òun sì wí pé, “Kín ni ìwọ yóò fi fún mi kí ìwọ kó lè wọlé tọ̀ mí.”
17 And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, If thou wilt give me a pledge, till thou send it.
Ó sì wí pé, “Èmi yóò fi ọmọ ewúrẹ́ kan ránṣẹ́ sí ọ láti inú agbo ẹran.” Obìnrin náà sì dáhùn pé, “Ṣé ìwọ yóò fún mi ní ohun kan gẹ́gẹ́ bí ẹ̀rí títí tí ìwọ yóò fi fi ránṣẹ́?”
18 And he said, What is the pledge which I shall give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy scarf, and thy staff that is in thy hand. And he gave them unto her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
Juda sì bi í pé, “Ẹ̀rí wo ni kí n fún ọ?” Ó sì dáhùn pé, “Èdìdì ìdámọ̀ okùn àti ọ̀pá ìtìlẹ̀ rẹ ti ń bẹ ní ọwọ́ rẹ.” Ó sì kó wọn fún un, ó sì sùn tì í, obìnrin náà sì lóyún nípasẹ̀ rẹ̀.
19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
Lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí ó lọ, ó bọ́ ìbòjú ojú rẹ̀, ó sì tún wọ aṣọ opó rẹ̀ padà.
20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to take the pledge out of the woman's hand; but he found her not.
Juda sì rán ọmọ ewúrẹ́ náà láti ọwọ́ ọ̀rẹ́ rẹ̀, ará Adullamu náà lọ láti gba ògo n nì wá lọ́wọ́ obìnrin náà. Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò bá obìnrin náà níbẹ̀.
21 Then he asked the men of her place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was at the cross-road on the highway? And they said, There hath been no harlot in this neighborhood.
Ó béèrè lọ́wọ́ àwọn ènìyàn àdúgbò náà pé, “Níbo ni alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà tí ó wà ní etí ọ̀nà Enaimu wà?” Wọ́n sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Kò sí alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà kankan níbí.”
22 And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place have said, There hath been no harlot in this place.
Ó sì padà lọ sọ́dọ̀ Juda ó wí fún un pé, “Èmí kò rí i, à ti pé àwọn aládùúgbò ibẹ̀ sọ pé kò sí alágbèrè ojúbọ òrìṣà kankan níbẹ̀.”
23 And Judah said, Let her keep it, lest we be put to shame; behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
Nígbà náà ni Juda wí pé, “Jẹ́ kí ó máa kó àwọn ohun tí ó wà lọ́wọ́ rẹ̀ lọ bí kò ṣe bẹ́ẹ̀ a ó di ẹlẹ́yà. Mo sá à fi ọmọ ewúrẹ́ ránṣẹ́ sí i, ṣùgbọ́n ìwọ kò rí òun.”
24 And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told to Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by prostitution. And Judah said, Lead her forth, and let her be burnt.
Lẹ́yìn nǹkan bí oṣù mẹ́ta, wọn sọ fún Juda pé, “Tamari aya ọmọ rẹ̀ ṣe àgbèrè, ó sì ti lóyún.” Juda sì wí pé, “Ẹ mú un jáde, kí ẹ sì dá iná sun ún.”
25 When she was led forth, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, By the man, whose these are, am I with child: and she said, Acknowledge, I pray thee, to whom belong these, the signet, the scarf, and staff.
Bí wọ́n sì ti ń mú un jáde, ó ránṣẹ́ sí baba ọkọ rẹ̀ pé, “Ọkùnrin tí ó ni àwọn nǹkan wọ̀nyí ni ó fún mi lóyún. Wò ó, bóyá o lè mọ ẹni tí ó ni èdìdì ìdámọ̀, okùn àti ọ̀pá ìtìlẹ̀ wọ̀nyí.”
26 And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She hath been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her not again any more.
Juda sì dá wọn mọ̀, ó sì wí pé, “O ṣe olódodo jù mí lọ, níwọ̀n ìgbà tí n kò fi fún Ṣela ọmọ mi.” Kò sì bá a lòpọ̀ mọ́ láti ọjọ́ náà.
27 And it came to pass at the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.
Nígbà tí àsìkò ìbímọ rẹ̀ tó. Ìbejì ọkùnrin ni ó bí.
28 And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.
Bí ó sì ti ń bímọ, ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ọmọ náà na ọwọ́ jáde; agbẹ̀bí sì so okùn òdòdó mọ́ ọmọ náà ní ọrùn ọwọ́. Ó sì wí pé, “Èyí ni o kọ́kọ́ jáde.”
29 And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold his brother came out; and she said, How hast thou broken forth! this breach is upon thee: therefore his name was called Perez.
Ṣùgbọ́n nígbà tí ó fa ọwọ́ rẹ̀ padà, èkejì rẹ̀ jáde. Tamari sì wí pé, “Níbo ni ìwọ ti wá?” Ó sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ní Peresi.
30 And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zerach.
Nígbà náà ni èkejì tí a ti so okùn olódòdó mọ́ lọ́rùn ọwọ́ jáde, wọ́n sì pe orúkọ rẹ̀ ni Sera.
