Kinohi 38
1 I A manawa no, iho aku la o Iuda mai kona poe hoahanau aku, a kipa aku la i kekahi kanaka no Adulama, o Hira kona inoa.
At that time, Judah went down from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 Ike aku la o luda i ke kaikamahine a kekahi mamo a Kanaana ilaila, o Sua kona inoa, lawe ae la oia ia ia, a komo aku la io na la.
There, Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite man named Shua. He took her, and went in to her.
3 Hapai iho la oia, a hanau mai la he keikikane; a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o Era.
She conceived, and bore a son; and he named him Er.
4 Hapai hou iho la oia, a hanau mai la he keikikane; a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o Onana.
She conceived again, and bore a son; and she named him Onan.
5 Hapai hou iho la oia a hanau mai la he keikikane; a kapa iho la ia i kona inoa, o Sela: ma Keziba oia i kona wa i hanau ai.
She yet again bore a son, and named him Shelah. He was at Chezib when she bore him.
6 Lawe ae la o Iuda i wahine na Era, na kana hiapo, o Tamara kona inoa.
Judah took a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 A ua hewa o Era, o ka hiapo a Iuda imua o Iehova; a pepehi iho la o Iehova ia ia.
Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the LORD’s sight. So the LORD killed him.
8 I aku la o Iuda ia Onana, E komo aku oe i ka wahine a kou kaikuaana, e mare me ia, a e hooku ae i keiki na kou kaikuaana.
Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother’s wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”
9 Ike iho la o Onana, aole nana ke keiki, alaila, i ka manawa ana i komo aku ai i ka wahine a kona kaikuaana, kiki iho la oia i ka mea ma ka honua, o haawi auanei ia i hua na kona kaikuaana.
Onan knew that the offspring wouldn’t be his; and when he went in to his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground, lest he should give offspring to his brother.
10 A o ka mea ana i hana'i, ua hewa ia imua o Iehova: a nana hoi ia i pepehi.
The thing which he did was evil in the LORD’s sight, and he killed him also.
11 Alaila, i aku la o Iuda ia Tamara, E noho kane ole oe ma ka hale o kou makuakane, a ka manawa e nui ai kuu keikikane o Sela: no ka mea, i iho la ia, O make paha hoi oia, e like me kona mau kaikuaana. Hele aku la o Tamara a noho iho la ma ka hale o kona makuakane.
Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father’s house, until Shelah, my son, is grown up;” for he said, “Lest he also die, like his brothers.” Tamar went and lived in her father’s house.
12 A nui na la i hala, make iho la ke kaikamahine a Sua, o ka luda wahine; a pau ko Iuda kanikau ana, pii aku la ia i Timenata i kona poe ako hipa, oia a me kona makamaka o Hira no Adulama.
After many days, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.
13 Hai aku la kekahi ia Tamara, Ea, e pii ana kou makuahunowaikane i Timenata e ako i kana hipa.
Tamar was told, “Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
14 Wehe ae la ia i kona mau kapa makena, a uhi iho la ia ia iho i ka palemaka, aahu iho la ia ia iho, a noho iho la ma ka pukapa o Enaima ma kapa alanui e hele ai i Timenata: no ka mea, ike aku la ia, ua nui ae la o Sela, aole hoi i haawiia oia i wahine naua.
She took off the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she wasn’t given to him as a wife.
15 A ike aku la o Iuda ia ia, manao iho la ia he wahine hookamakama kela; no ka mea, ua paleia kona maka.
When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
16 Kipa ae la ia io na la ma kapa alanui, i aku la, Ea, ke noi aku nei au ia oe, e ae mai ia'u e komo aku iou la; (no ka mea, aole ia i ike, o kana hunona wahine ia.) Ninau mai la kela, Heaha kau e haawi mai ai ia'u, i mea e komo mai ai oe i o'u nei?
He turned to her by the way, and said, “Please come, let me come in to you,” for he didn’t know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”
17 I aku la ia, E hoouka aku au i wahi kao keiki no ka poe holoholona mai I mai la kela, Aole anei oe e haawi mai i hoailona, a hoouka mai oe ia mea?
He said, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” She said, “Will you give me a pledge, until you send it?”
18 I aku la oia, Heaha ka hoailona a'u e haawi aku ai ia oe? I mai la kela, O kou apolima, me kou kaula hoolewa, a me ke kookoo maloko o kou lima. Haawi aku la oia ia ia, a komo aku la io na la, a hapai iho la kela ma ona la.
He said, “What pledge will I give you?” She said, “Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” He gave them to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
19 Ku ae la ia, hele aku la, a waiho iho la i kona pale maka, a aahu hou iho la i kona mau kapa no ka noho wahine kanemake ana.
She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 Hoouka aku la o Iuda i ke kao keiki ma ka lima o kona makamaka no Adulama, i loaa mai ai kana hooiaio mai ka lima mai o ka wahine: aole nae i loaa ua wahine la ia ia.
Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman’s hand, but he didn’t find her.
21 Ninau aku la ia i na kanaka o ia wahi, i aku la, Auhea la ka wahine hookamakama i noho ma Enaima, ma kapa alanui? I mai la lakou, Aohe wahine hookamakama ia nei.
Then he asked the men of her place, saying, “Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?” They said, “There has been no prostitute here.”
22 Hoi hou aku la ia io Iuda la i aku la, Aohe i loaa ia ia'u; a ua i mai hoi na kanaka o ia wahi, aole wahine hookamakama ia nei.
He returned to Judah, and said, “I haven’t found her; and also the men of the place said, ‘There has been no prostitute here.’”
23 I aku la o Iuda, E aho no e lilo ia mau mea nona, o hoohilahilaia kaua: aia hoi, hoouka aku no au i keia kao keiki, aole ka i loaa ka wahine ia oe.
Judah said, “Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you haven’t found her.”
24 A hala na malama ekolu paha, hai mai la kekahi ia Iuda, i ka i ana, Ua moekolohe iho nei kau hunonawahine o Tamara; aia hoi, ua hapai oia ma ka moekolohe. I aku la o Iuda, E kaiia mai oia, i puhiia'i ia i ke ahi.
About three months later, Judah was told, “Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute. Moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution.” Judah said, “Bring her out, and let her be burned.”
25 A kaiia'ku oia, hoouna mai la ia, i mai la i kona makuahunowaikane, Na ke kanaka nana keia mau mea au i hapai ai. I mai la hoi oia, E nana oe, ea, i ike i ka mea nana keia mau mea, o ke apolima, me ke kaula hoolewa, a me ke kookoo.
When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “I am with child by the man who owns these.” She also said, “Please discern whose these are—the signet, and the cords, and the staff.”
26 A ike iho la o Iuda, i aku la, Ua oi aku kona pono i ko'u; no ka mea, aole au i haawi aku ia ia na kuu keiki na Sela. Aole hoi o Iuda i ike hou ia ia.
Judah acknowledged them, and said, “She is more righteous than I, because I didn’t give her to Shelah, my son.” He knew her again no more.
27 A i ka manawa o kona haakohi ana, aia hoi, he mau mahoe maloko o kona opu.
In the time of her travail, behold, twins were in her womb.
28 A i ka hanau ana, puka mai la ka lima o kekahi; lalau aku la ka palekeiki i ua lima la a nakii iho la i ke kaula ulaula ilaila, i mai la, Eia ka hanau mua.
When she travailed, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This came out first.”
29 A i ka huki hou ana o kona lima iloko, aia hoi, puka e mai la kona hoahanau: i aku la ke palekeiki, Heaha kau i poha wale mai? Maluna iho ou keia nahae: nolaila, kapa iho la ia i kona inoa o Pareza.
As he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out, and she said, “Why have you made a breach for yourself?” Therefore his name was called Perez.
30 Mahope iho puka mai la ke kaikaina, ia ia ke kaula ulaula ma kona lima: a ua kapaia kona inoa o Zara.
Afterward his brother came out, who had the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
