창세기 38
1 그 후에 유다가 자기 형제에게서 내려가서 아둘람 사람 히라에게로 나아가니라
And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down away from his brethren, —and turned aside unto a certain Adullamite, whose, name, was Hirah.
2 유다가 거기서 가나안 사람 수아라 하는 자의 딸을 보고 그를 취하여 동침하니
And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose, name, was Shua, —and he took her, and went in unto her;
3 그가 잉태하여 아들을 낳으매 유다가 그 이름을 엘이라 하니라
and she conceived and bare a son, —and he called his name Er.
4 그가 다시 잉태하여 아들을 낳고 그 이름을 오난이라 하고
And she conceived again and bare a son, —and she called his name Onan.
5 그가 또 다시 아들을 낳고 그 이름을 셀라라 하니라 그가 셀라를 낳을 때에 유다는 거십에 있었더라
And she, yet again, bare a son, and called his name Shelah, —and she, was at Chezib, when she bare him.
6 유다가 장자 엘을 위하여 아내를 취하니 그 이름은 다말이더라
And Judah took a wife, for Er his firstborn, —and, her name, was Tamar.
7 유다의 장자 엘이 여호와 목전에 악하므로 여호와께서 그를 죽이신지라
And it came to pass that Er, Judah’s firstborn was displeasing in the eyes of Yahweh, —so Yahweh put him to death,
8 유다가 오난에게 이르되 `네 형수에게로 들어가서 남편의 아우의 본분을 행하여 네 형을 취하여 씨가 있게 하라'
Then said Judah to Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and fulfil the duty of a brother-in-law unto her, —and raise up seed, to thy brother.
9 오난이 그 씨가 자기 것이 되지 않을 줄 알므로 형수에게 들어갔을 때에 형에게 아들을 얻게 아니하려고 땅에 설정하매
And Onan knew that the seed would not be his, —and so although he did go in unto his brother’s wife, yet made he waste upon the ground, so as not to give seed to his brother.
10 그 일이 여호와 목전에 악하므로 여호와께서 그도 죽이시니
And it was displeasing, in the eyes of Yahweh what he had done, —so he put, him also, to death,
11 유다가 그 며느리 다말에게 이르되 `수절하고 네 아비 집에 있어서 내 아들 셀라가 장성하기를 기다리라' 하니 셀라도 그 형들 같이 죽을까 염려함이라 다말이 가서 그 아비 집에 있으니라
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law—Remain a widow in the house of thy father until Shelah my son grow up. For he said, Lest, he also, die, like his brethren. So Tamar went her way, and remained in the house of her father.
12 얼마 후에 유다의 아내 수아의 딸이 죽은지라 유다가 위로를 받은 후에 그 친구 아둘람 사람 히라와 함께 딤나로 올라가서 자기 양털 깍는 자에게 이르렀더니
And when the days were multiplied, then died Shua’s daughter, Judah’s wife, —and Judah consoled himself and went up unto his sheep shearers, he and Hirah his friend the Adullamite, towards Timnah.
13 혹이 다말에게 고하되 `네 시부가 자기 양털을 깎으려고 딤나에 올라왔다' 한지라
And it was told Tamar saying, —Lo! thy father-in-law is going up towards Timnah, to the shearing of his sheep.
14 그가 그 과부의 의복을 벗고 면박으로 얼굴을 가리고 몸을 휩싸고 딤나 길 곁 에나임 문에 앉으니 이는 셀라가 장성함을 보았어도 자기를 그의 아내로 주지 않음을 인함이라
So she put off from her the garments of her widowhood and covered herself with a veil and wrapped herself up, and sat down in the entrance of, Enaim, which is by the way towards Timnah, —for she saw that Shelah had grown up, and she, had not been given him to wife.
15 그가 얼굴을 가리웠으므로 유다가 그를 보고 창녀로 여겨
And Judah, seeing her, reckoned her to be an unchaste woman, —for she had covered her face.
16 길곁으로 그에게 나아가 가로되 `청컨대 나로 네게 들어가게 하라' 하니 그 자부인줄 알지 못하였음이라 그가 가로되 `당신이 무엇을 주고 내게 들어 오려느냐?'
So he turned aside unto her. by the way, and said Grant it! 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, if thou shouldst come in unto me?
17 유다가 가로되 내가 내 떼에서 염소 새끼를 주리라 그가 가로되 당신이 그것을 줄 때까지 약조물을 주겠느냐?
And he said, I, will send a kid of the goats from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give a pledge until thou send it?
18 유다가 가로되 `무슨 약조물을 네게 주랴?' 그가 가로되 `당신의 도장과 그 끈과 당신의 손에 있는 지팡이로 하라' 유다가 그것들을 그에게 주고 그에게로 들어갔더니 그가 유다로 말미암아 잉태하였더라
And he said—What is the pledge that I shall give thee? And She said—Thy signet-ring, and thy guard, and thy staff that is in thy hand. So he gave them to her and came in unto her and she conceived by him.
19 그가 일어나 떠나가서 그 면박을 벗고 과부의 의복을 도로 입으니라
Then she arose and went her way, and put off her veil from her, —and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 유다가 그 친구 아둘람 사람의 손에 부탁하여 염소 새끼를 보내고 그 여인의 손에서 약조물을 찾으려 하였으나 그가 그 여인을 찾지 못한지라
And Judah sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge at the hand of the woman, —but he found her not.
21 그가 그 곳 사람에게 물어 가로되 `길 곁 에나임에 있던 창녀가 어디 있느냐?` 그들이 가로되 `여기는 창녀가 없느니라'
So he asked the men of her place saying. Where is the devotee, she that was in Enaim, by the way? And they said, —There hath been here no devotee.
22 그가 유다에게로 돌아와 가로되 `내가 그를 찾지 못하고 그 곳 사람도 이르기를 여기는 창녀가 없다 하더라`
Then returned he unto Judah, and said—I found her not, —moreover also, the men of the place said, There hath been here no devotee.
23 유다가 가로되 `그로 그것을 가지게 두라 우리가 부끄러움을 당할까 하노라 내가 이 염소 새끼를 보내었으나 그대가 그를 찾지 못하였느니라'
And Judah said: Thou must take it to her, lest we become a contempt, —lo! I sent this kid, and, thou, hast not found her.
24 석달쯤 후에 혹이 유다에게 고하여 가로되 `네 며느리 다말이 행음하였고 그 행음함을 인하여 잉태하였느니라' 유다가 가로되 `그를 끌어 내어 불사르라'
And it came to pass that about three months after, it was told Judah, saying—Tamar thy daughter-in-law hath been guilty of unchastity, moreover also lo! she hath conceived by unchastity. Then said Judah, Bring her forth and let her be burnt.
25 여인이 끌려 나갈 때에 보내어 시부에게 이르되 `이 물건 임자로 말미암아 잉태하였나이다 청컨대 보소서, 이 도장과 그 끈과 지팡이가 뉘 것이니이까?' 한지라
When, she, was about to be brought forth, then, she herself, sent unto her father-in-law saying, By the man to whom these belong, have I, conceived! And she said—Examine, I pray thee, to whom belong the signet-ring, and the guard, and the staff—these!
26 유다가 그것들을 알아보고 가로되 `그는 나보다 옳도다 내가 그를 내 아들 셀라에게 주지 아니하였음이로다' 하고 다시는 그를 가까이 하지 아니하였더라
So Judah examined them and said—More righteous than I! forasmuch, as I had not given her to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.
27 임산하여 보니 쌍태라
And, it came to pass at the time of her travail, that lo! twins, were in her womb.
28 해산할 때에 손이 나오는지라 산파가 가로되 `이는 먼저 나온자라' 하고 홍사를 가져 그 손에 매었더니
And it came to pass when she was in travail, that one put forth a hand, —so the midwife took and bound upon his hand a crimson thread, saying—This came first!
29 그 손을 도로 들이며 그 형제가 나오는지라 산파가 가로되 `네가 어찌하여 터치고 나오느냐?' 한고로 그 이름을 베레스라 불렀고
And so it was that, no sooner had he withdrawn his hand, than lo! his brother had come. And she said, Wherefore hast thou made for thyself a breach? So his name was called Perez.
30 그 형제 곧 손에 홍사 있는 자가 뒤에 나오니 그 이름을 세라라 불렀더라
And afterwards, came his brother, on whose hand was the crimson thread, —so his name was called, Zerah.
