< Genesis 38 >

1 And it cometh to pass, at that time, that Judah goeth down from his brethren, and turneth aside unto a man, an Adullamite, whose name [is] Hirah;
Ke pacl sac pacna Judah el som liki mwet wial, ac muta yurin mwet se pangpang Hirah, su ma in siti srisrik Adullam.
2 and Judah seeth there the daughter of a man, a Canaanite, whose name [is] Shuah, and taketh her, and goeth in unto her.
Ke el muta we el sun tulik mutan Canaan se, su ma natul Shua. Na el payukyak sel,
3 And she conceiveth, and beareth a son, and he calleth his name Er;
ac mutan sac osweang wen se nu sel, ac Judah el sang inen tulik sac Er.
4 and she conceiveth again, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Onan;
Mutan sac sifilpa pitutuyak ac oswela pac wen se, ac sang inel Onan.
5 and she addeth again, and beareth a son, and calleth his name Shelah; and he was in Chezib in her bearing him.
Na el sifilpa oswela wen se, ac sang inel Shelah. Judah el muta Achzib ke mutan sac oswella Shelah.
6 And Judah taketh a wife for Er, his first-born, and her name [is] Tamar;
Judah el konauk mutan se pangpang Tamar kial Er, wen se omeet natul.
7 and Er, Judah's first-born, is evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and Jehovah doth put him to death.
Elah lal Er arulana koluk ac aktoasrye LEUM GOD, ke ma inge LEUM GOD El unilya.
8 And Judah saith to Onan, 'Go in unto the wife of thy brother, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother;'
Na Judah el fahk nu sel Onan, tamulel lal Er, “Fahla ona yurin katinmas kien tamulel lom, ac akfalye ma kunom nu sel, tuh in oasr fita nutin ma lim.”
9 and Onan knoweth that the seed is not [reckoned] his; and it hath come to pass, if he hath gone in unto his brother's wife, that he hath destroyed [it] to the earth, so as not to give seed to his brother;
Tusruktu Onan el etu lah tulik el ac orala uh ac tia oaoa mu ma natul, ouinge pacl nukewa el ac ona yurin katinmas sac, el ac okoalla nu saya, tuh in wangin tulik nutin tamulel lal.
10 and that which he hath done is evil in the eyes of Jehovah, and He putteth him also to death.
Ma el oru inge aktoasrye LEUM GOD, ac LEUM GOD El unilya pac.
11 And Judah saith to Tamar his daughter-in-law, 'Abide a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son groweth up;' for he said, 'Lest he die — even he — like his brethren;' and Tamar goeth and dwelleth at her father's house.
Na Judah el fahk nu sel Tamar, acn talupal, “Folokla ac muta yurin papa tomom, ac mutangan katinmas na nwe ke na Shelah, wen nutik, el matula.” El fahk ouinge mweyen el sensen ac anwuki pac Shelah oana tamulel luo lal ah. Ke ma inge Tamar el folokla nu yen sel ah.
12 And the days are multiplied, and the daughter of Shuah, Judah's wife, dieth; and Judah is comforted, and goeth up unto his sheep-shearers, he and Hirah his friend the Adullamite, to Timnath.
Tok kutu, na mutan kial Judah ah misa. Ke safla eoksra lal, el ac Hirah, kawuk lal in acn Adullam, som nu Timnah, yen ma kalkul sheep natul uh we.
13 And it is declared to Tamar, saying, 'Lo, thy husband's father is going up to Timnath to shear his flock;'
Mwet se fahkang nu sel Tamar lah papa tumun mukul tumal ah el som nu Timnah in kal sheep natul we.
14 and she turneth aside the garments of her widowhood from off her, and covereth herself with a vail, and wrappeth herself up, and sitteth in the opening of Enayim, which [is] by the way to Timnath, for she hath seen that Shelah hath grown up, and she hath not been given to him for a wife.
Ouinge Tamar el ayaolla liki nuknuk in katinmas lal ma el muta nukum, afinya mutal ke mwe lisrlisr, ac pituki muta ke acn in utyak nu Enaim, sie siti srisrik sisken inkanek nu Timnah. In etu lal uh, Shelah, wen se ma fusr oemeet natul Judah, el matula tari in pacl se inge, a tiana itukyang Tamar elan payukyak sel.
15 And Judah seeth her, and reckoneth her for a harlot, for she hath covered her face,
Ke Judah el liyalak, el nunku mu sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal pa el, mweyen el afinya mutal.
16 and he turneth aside unto her by the way, and saith, 'Come, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee,' (for he hath not known that she [is] his daughter-in-law); and she saith, 'What dost thou give to me, that thou mayest come in unto me?'
El fahla nwe yorol sisken inkanek ah, ac fahk, “Kwal, lupa su molum?” (Judah el tiana etu lah mutan sac ma talupal.) Tamar el fahk, “Mea kom ac se?”
17 and he saith, 'I — I send a kid of the goats from the flock.' And she saith, 'Dost thou give a pledge till thou send [it]?'
Ac Judah el topuk, “Nga ac supwama soko nani fusr ah liki un kosro nutik.” Na Tamar el fahk, “Kwal, se sie mwe akpwaye an in oan yuruk nwe ke na kom supwama nani an.”
18 and he saith, 'What [is] the pledge that I give to thee?' and she saith, 'Thy seal, and thy ribbon, and thy staff which [is] in thy hand;' and he giveth to her, and goeth in unto her, and she conceiveth to him;
Ac Judah el siyuk, “Mea nga ac sot in mwe akpwaye wulela luk?” Ac mutan sac fahk, “Sil se lom ingan wi ah nu kac an, oayapa sikal soko lom ma kom us ingan.” Judah el sang ma inge kewa nu sel, na el ona yorol ac Tamar el pitutuyak sel.
19 and she riseth, and goeth, and turneth aside her vail from off her, and putteth on the garments of her widowhood.
Tamar el folokla nu lohm sel, eisla mwe lisrlisr ke mutal, ac sifilpa nokomwang nuknuk in katinmas lal.
20 And Judah sendeth the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the hand of the woman, and he hath not found her.
Judah el supwalla Hirah, kawuk lal, in usla nani uh ac folokonma mwe akpwaye ma el tuh sang nu sin mutan sac. Tusruktu Hirah el tuh tia ku in konalak.
21 And he asketh the men of her place, saying, 'Where [is] the separated one — she in Enayim, by the way?' and they say, 'There hath not been in this [place] a separated one.'
El siyuk sin kutu mukul Enaim, “Pia mutan kosro se ma tuh muta pe inkanek uh ah?” Ac elos topuk, “Wanginna mutan kosro yenu.”
22 And he turneth back unto Judah, and saith, 'I have not found her; and the men of the place also have said, There hath not been in this [place] a separated one,'
Hirah el folokla nu yorol Judah ac fahk, “Nga tia ku in konalak. Mukul in acn sac fahk mu soenna oasr mutan kosro in acn sac.”
23 and Judah saith, 'Let her take to herself, lest we become despised; lo, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.'
Judah el fahk, “Tari elan eis lal ma yorol an. Kut tia lungse mwet in isrun kut. Nga srike ngan moli nu sel, tuh pa kom tia konalak an.”
24 And it cometh to pass about three months [after], that it is declared to Judah, saying, 'Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath committed fornication; and also, lo, she hath conceived by fornication:' and Judah saith, 'Bring her out — and she is burnt.'
Ac malem tolu ma tok, mwet se fahk nu sel Judah, “Tamar, acn talupom, el orekma oana mutan kosro se, ac inge el pitutu.” Ac Judah el sap, “Usalla, esukulak elan misa!”
25 She is brought out, and she hath sent unto her husband's father, saying, 'To a man whose these [are], I [am] pregnant;' and she saith, 'Discern, I pray thee, whose [are] these — the seal, and the ribbons, and the staff.'
Ke elos amakunulla Tamar, el sap elos in fahkang kas inge nu sin papa talupal: “Nga pitutuyak sin mwet se la ma inge. Srike liye lah lun su — sil se inge wi ah soko nu kac uh, ac sikal soko.”
26 And Judah discerneth and saith, 'She hath been more righteous than I, because that I did not give her to Shelah my son;' and he hath not added to know her again.
Judah el akilenak ma inge ac fahk, “Pwaye sel, wangin mwatal. Nga tafongla ke ma kunuk nu sel. Pwayeiya uh, nga ac eisalang Shelah tumal.” Ac Judah el tiana sifilpa oan yorol.
27 And it cometh to pass in the time of her bearing, that lo, twins [are] in her womb;
Ke sun pacl in isus lal, koneyukyak lah el ac oswe fak se.
28 and it cometh to pass in her bearing, that [one] giveth out a hand, and the midwife taketh and bindeth on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, 'This hath come out first.'
Ke pacl se el oswe tulik inge, sie seltal isongla paol nu saya, na mutan akisus sac sruokya, ac kapriya turet srusra soko kac, ac fahk, “El uh pa isusla meet uh.”
29 And it cometh to pass as he draweth back his hand, that lo, his brother hath come out, and she saith, 'What! thou hast broken forth — on thee [is] the breach;' and he calleth his name Pharez;
Tusruktu tulik sac folokonak paol, ac ma se ngia tuh isusla meet lukel. Na mutan akisus sac fahk, “Ya pa nge luman illa lom uh? Kom sifacna fokolma inkanek lom.” Ouinge itukyang inen tulik sac Perez.
30 and afterwards hath his brother come out, on whose hand [is] the scarlet thread, and he calleth his name Zarah.
Na tulik se wial ah isusla, ac turet srusra soko ah oanna ke paol, na itukyang inel Zerah.
