Kejadian 38

1 Kira-kira pada waktu itu Yehuda meninggalkan saudara-saudaranya dan tinggal bersama Hira, seorang laki-laki yang berasal dari kota Adulam.

And it was at the time that and he went down Judah from with brothers his and he turned aside to a man an Adullamite and name his [was] Hirah.

2 Di situ Yehuda berkenalan dengan seorang gadis Kanaan, anak Sua, lalu mereka kawin.

And he saw there Judah a daughter of a man a Canaanite and name his [was] Shua and he took her and he went into her.

3 Anak mereka yang pertama laki-laki, diberi nama Er oleh ayahnya.

And she conceived and she bore a son and he called name his Er.

4 Anak kedua, juga laki-laki, dinamakannya Onan.

And she conceived again and she bore a son and she called name his Onan.

5 Anak ketiga pun laki-laki, dan dinamakannya Syela. Waktu Syela lahir Yehuda sedang ada di Kezib.

And she repeated again and she bore a son and she called name his Shelah and he was in Kezib when bore she him.

6 Yehuda mengawinkan Er, anaknya yang sulung dengan Tamar.

And he took Judah a wife for Er firstborn his and name her [was] Tamar.

7 Kelakuan Er jahat sekali, sehingga TUHAN marah kepadanya dan membunuhnya.

And he was Er [the] firstborn of Judah evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he put to death him Yahweh.

8 Lalu Yehuda berkata kepada Onan adik Er, "Pergilah kepada janda abangmu, dan tidurlah dengan dia. Penuhilah kewajibanmu terhadap dia, sebab engkau adik suaminya; dengan demikian abangmu bisa mendapat keturunan."

And he said Judah to Onan go into [the] wife of brother your and act as a husband's brother for her and raise up offspring for brother your.

9 Tetapi Onan tahu bahwa anak-anaknya nanti tidak akan menjadi miliknya. Jadi, setiap kali ia bersetubuh dengan janda abangnya itu, dibiarkannya maninya tumpah di luar supaya abangnya tidak akan mendapat keturunan.

And he knew Onan that not to him it will belong the offspring and it was if he went into [the] wife of brother his and he spoiled [the] ground towards to not to give offspring to brother his.

10 Perbuatannya itu membuat TUHAN marah, dan TUHAN membunuh dia juga.

And it was evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh [that] which he had done and he put to death also him.

11 Kemudian berkatalah Yehuda kepada Tamar menantunya itu, "Kembalilah ke rumah orang tuamu dan tinggallah di situ sebagai janda sampai anakku Syela menjadi besar." Ia berkata demikian karena takut jangan-jangan Syela akan dibunuh TUHAN juga, seperti kedua abangnya. Maka pulanglah Tamar ke rumah orang tuanya.

And he said Judah to Tamar daughter-in-law his dwell a widow [the] house of father your until he will grow up Shelah son my for he said lest he should die also he like brothers his and she went Tamar and she dwelt [the] house of father her.

12 Beberapa waktu kemudian istri Yehuda meninggal. Setelah habis masa berkabung, Yehuda mengajak Hira, temannya dari Adulam itu, pergi ke Timna, tempat domba-dombanya digunting bulunya.

And they increased the days and she died [the] daughter of Shua [the] wife of Judah and he was comforted Judah and he went up to [the] shearers of sheep his he and Hirah friend his the Adullamite Timnah towards.

13 Tamar mendapat kabar bahwa Yehuda mertuanya akan datang ke Timna untuk menggunting bulu domba-dombanya.

And it was told to Tamar saying there! father-in-law your [is] going up Timnah towards to shear sheep his.

14 Maka ia mengganti pakaian jandanya dengan pakaian lain. Mukanya ditutupnya dengan selubung, lalu duduklah ia di pintu gerbang kota Enaim, yang terletak di jalan menuju ke Timna. Tamar tahu betul bahwa Syela, anak Yehuda yang bungsu, sudah besar, tetapi ia belum juga dikawinkan dengan pemuda itu.

And she removed [the] clothes of widowhood her from on her and she covered with the veil and she wrapped herself up and she sat at [the] entrance of Enaim which [is] on [the] road of Timnah towards for she had seen that he had grown up Shelah and she not she had been given to him to a wife.

15 Ketika Yehuda melihat Tamar, disangkanya wanita itu seorang pelacur, karena wajahnya terselubung.

And he saw her Judah and he considered her to a prostitute for she had covered face her.

16 Lalu Yehuda mendekatinya di pinggir jalan itu, dan berkata, "Berapa yang kauminta?" Ia tidak tahu bahwa wanita itu menantunya sendiri. Tamar menjawab, "Terserah pada Tuan."

And he turned aside to her to the road and he said give! please let me go into you for not he knew that [was] daughter-in-law his she and she said what? will you give to me that you will come into me.

17 Yehuda berkata lagi, "Saya akan memberikan kepadamu seekor kambing muda." Jawab Tamar, "Boleh, asal ada jaminan, sampai Tuan mengirimkan kambing itu."

And he said I I will send a kid of goats from the flock and she said if you will give a pledge until sending [it] you.

18 "Jaminan apa?" tanya Yehuda. Jawab Tamar, "Berilah kepada saya stempel Tuan dengan talinya dan juga tongkat yang ada pada Tuan itu." Yehuda memberikan benda-benda itu kepadanya, lalu mereka bersetubuh, dan Tamar menjadi hamil.

And he said what? [is] the pledge which I will give to you and she said seal your and cord your and staff your which [is] in hand your and he gave [them] to her and he went into her and she conceived to him.

19 Tamar pulang ke rumahnya dan membuka kain penutup mukanya, lalu mengenakan pakaian jandanya lagi.

And she arose and she went and she removed veil her from on her and she put on [the] clothes of widowhood her.

20 Beberapa waktu kemudian Yehuda mengutus Hira, temannya, untuk mengantarkan kambing itu dan meminta kembali benda-benda yang telah diberikannya sebagai jaminan, tetapi Hira tidak dapat menemukan wanita itu.

And he sent Judah [the] kid of the goats by [the] hand of friend his the Adullamite to take the pledge from [the] hand of the woman and not he found her.

21 Hira bertanya-tanya kepada orang-orang di Enaim, "Di mana pelacur yang biasanya menunggu di pinggir jalan ini?" "Tidak pernah ada pelacur di sini," jawab mereka.

And he asked [the] men of place her saying where? [is] the cult prostitute she [was] at Enaim at the road and they said not she was in this [place] a cult prostitute.

22 Lalu kembalilah Hira kepada Yehuda dan berkata, "Saya tidak dapat menemukan wanita itu. Menurut orang-orang di sana tak pernah ada pelacur di situ."

And he returned to Judah and he said not I found her and also [the] men of the place they said not she was in this [place] a cult prostitute.

23 Kata Yehuda, "Biarlah benda-benda itu untuk dia, asal saja kita tidak mendapat malu. Saya sudah berusaha untuk membayarnya, tetapi engkau tak dapat menemukan dia."

And he said Judah let her take [them] for herself lest we should become contempt there! I sent the kid this and you not you found her.

24 Kira-kira tiga bulan kemudian Yehuda mendapat kabar bahwa Tamar menantunya telah bertindak sebagai pelacur dan sudah hamil. Lalu Yehuda memerintahkan, "Ambillah dia dan bakarlah sampai mati!"

And it was - when from three months and it was told to Judah saying she has acted as a prostitute Tamar daughter-in-law your and also here! [she is] pregnant to prostitution and he said Judah bring out her so she may be burned.

25 Sementara Tamar dibawa keluar, ia mengirimkan pesan kepada ayah mertuanya, katanya, "Aku telah dihamili oleh orang yang memiliki benda-benda ini. Periksalah siapa pemilik stempel dengan talinya dan tongkat ini."

She [was being] brought out and she she sent to father-in-law her saying to a man whom these [belong] to him I [am] pregnant and she said investigate please [belong] to whom? the seal and the cord and the staff these.

26 Yehuda mengenali benda-benda itu dan berkata, "Wanita itu tidak bersalah. Saya tidak memenuhi kewajiban saya terhadap dia; seharusnya saya kawinkan dia dengan anak saya Syela." Yehuda tidak pernah lagi bersetubuh dengan Tamar.

And he recognized [them] Judah and he said she is righteous more than me for since not I gave her to Shelah son my and not he repeated again to know her.

27 Ketika sudah waktunya Tamar bersalin, ternyata ia akan melahirkan anak kembar.

And it was at [the] time gave birth she and there! twins [were] in womb her.

28 Sedang ia bersalin, salah satu bayi kembar itu mengeluarkan tangannya, lalu bidan memegang tangan itu dan mengikatnya dengan benang merah. Katanya, "Anak ini lahir lebih dahulu."

And it was when gave birth she and he put out a hand and she took the midwife and she tied on hand his a scarlet thread saying this one he came out first.

29 Tetapi bayi itu menarik tangannya kembali, dan bayi yang satu lagi lahir lebih dahulu. Kemudian bidan berkata, "Jadi begitulah caramu mendesak keluar!" Maka anak yang lahir lebih dahulu itu dinamakannya Peres.

And it was - when [he was] withdrawing hand his and there! he came out brother his and she said how! you have made a breach on yourself a breach and someone called name his Perez.

30 Setelah itu barulah lahir adiknya yang tangannya ada benang merahnya. Dia diberi nama Zerah.

And after he came out brother his whom [was] on hand his the scarlet thread and someone called name his Zerah.
