< Genesisy 38 >

1 Ie henane zay, nienga amo rahalahi’eo t’Iehodà nitsile mb’ ami’ty nte-Adolame atao Hirà.
It happened at that time that Judah moved away from his brothers and stayed with an Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 Le nitendreke anak’ampela nte-Kanàne atao Soae t’Iehodà; le nengae’e vaho nimoak’ ama’e.
There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite whose name was Shua. And he married her and slept with her.
3 Niaren-dre, nisamak’ anadahy; le natao’e Ere ty aña­ra’e.
She conceived and gave birth to a son, and he named him Er.
4 Niareñe indrai­ke re nahatoly ana-dahy, le natao’e Onane ty aña­ra’e.
She conceived again and gave birth to a son, and she named him Onan.
5 Mbe nahatoly ana-dahy in­draike re le natao’e Selà ty añara’e. Te Kezibe añe t’ie nahatoly aze.
Then she gave birth to another son, and named him Shelah. And he was at Kezib when she gave birth to him.
6 Nangala-baly ho a i Ere, tañoloñoloña’ey t’Iehodà; Tamare ty añara’e.
And Judah got a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 Fe nilo-tserek’ am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà t’i Ere, tañolo­ñoloña’ Iehodày, vaho navetra’ Iehovà.
Now Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of YHWH, so God killed him.
8 Le hoe t’Iehodà amy Onane, Mimoaha amy valin-joke’oy vaho rañaoto, hampitroara’o tariratse ho a i rahalahi’oy.
Then Judah said to Onan, "Sleep with your brother's wife and fulfill the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother."
9 Aa kanao napota’ i Onane te tsy ho aze i tiry zay, le ie nizilik’ amy valin-joke’ey ao, naria’e an-tane ty rompilahia’e, tsy mone hanolo-tariratse aman-drahalahi’e.
But Onan knew that the offspring wouldn't be his. So it happened when he slept with his brother's wife that he released his semen on the ground, so that he would not produce offspring for his brother.
10 Tsy ninò’ Iehovà i sata’ey, le navetra’e ka.
And what he did was evil in the sight of God, so he killed him also.
11 Aa hoe t’Iehodà amy Tamare vinanto’e, Mitoboha ho ramavoiñe añ’anjomban-drae’o ao ampara’ te añoñ’ay t’i Selà, ie niereñere’e ty hoe: Hera ho simba ka re manahake i zoke’ey. Aa le nimb’eo t’i Tamare nimo­neñe añ’anjomban-drae’e añe.
Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, "Remain a widow in your father's house until my son Shelah is grown up." For he thought, "I do not want him to die too, like his brothers." So Tamar went and lived in her father's house.
12 Ie roñoñe añe, le nihomake ka ty vali’ Iehodà, anak’ ampela’ i Soae; aa ie nanintsiñe t’Iehodà, le nionjoñe mb’e Timnà mb’amo mpañitsi-bolon’ añondri’eo mb’eo rekets’ i Hirà nte-Adolame rañe’ey.
After some time, Judah's wife, the daughter of Shua, died. And Judah finished mourning, and went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
13 Le nitalilieñ’ amy Tamare ty hoe, Inao, mionjomb’e Timnà ty rae’o hañitsike o añondri’eo.
And Tamar was told, saying, "Look, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep."
14 Aa le nafaha’e o lamban-dramavoi’eo, naho nanakon-daharañe an-damba marerarera, naho nifolonkoñe, vaho nitobok’ an-dalam-bei’ i Enaime, amy lala-mb’e Timnày. Toe niisa’e fa ajalahy t’i Selà f’ie tsy nampañengaeñe aze ho vali’e.
She took off her widow's clothes and covered herself with a veil, and wrapped herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him as a wife.
15 Tendrek’ aze t’Iehodà, le natao’e ho tsimirirañe amy t’ie nisaron-doha.
When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute because she had covered her face.
16 Nivike mb’ama’e añ’olo’ i lalañe mb’eo re, nanao ty hoe, Mimetea hiolorako, fe ninofi’e t’ie vinanto ampela’e. Hoe re, Ino ty anangea’o ahy, hiharoa’o?
He went over to her by the road and said, "Please come, let me sleep with you," for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, "What will you give me for sleeping with you?"
17 Hoe ty natoi’e, Hampisangitrifeko vi’e boak’ amy lia-raikey. Le hoe re, Tsy ho mea’o tsoake hey hao ampara’ te hahitri’o?
He said, "I will send you a young goat from the flock." She said, "Will you give me something as a guarantee until you send it?"
18 Hoe re, Tsoake manao akore ty hatoloko azo? Natoi’e ty hoe, O bangem-pitombo’oo naho i tali’oy vaho o kobaiñe am-pità’oo. Aa le natolo’e aze, naho niolots’ ama’e; vaho nampiareñe’e.
He said, "What kind of guarantee should I give you?" She replied, "Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand." So he gave them to her, and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
19 Niongake re, nienga; le nafaha’e i marerareray, vaho naombe’e indraike o lamban-dramavoi’eo.
And she got up and left, and took off her veil, and put on her widow's clothing.
20 Nampihitrife’ Iehodà am-pità’ i nte-Ado­lame rañe’ey ty vi’e, hañavake i tsoak’ an-taña’ i rakembaiy, f’ie tsy nirendreke.
Judah sent the young goat by his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the guarantee back from the woman's hand, but he did not find her.
21 Aa le nañontanea’e ondaty amy toetseio ty hoe, Aia i tsimiriran-kazomanga te Enaime tañ’ olon-dalañey? le hoe iereo, Tsy aman-tsimiriran-kazomanga ty atoy.
Then he asked the men of the place, saying, "Where is the prostitute that was at Enaim by the road?" They said, "There has been no prostitute here."
22 Aa le nibalike mb’ am’ Iehodà añe re nita­lily ty hoe: Tsy nirendreko, vaho nanao ty hoe amako ondaty an-drova ao, Tsy aman-tsimiriran-kazomanga ty atoy.
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 Hoe ty natoi’ Iehodà, Angao rambese’e ho ama’e i raha rezay tsy mone hiankahafañe; hehe te nampihitrifeko mb’ama’e ty vi’e f’ie tsy nioni’o.
Judah said, "Let her keep the things, lest we be publicly shamed. Look, I sent this young goat, but you did not find her."
24 Ie añe ty telo volañe, le natalily am’ Iehodà ty hoe, Nañarapilo­ t’i Tamare vinanto’oy, ie mivesa­tse ty amy hatsimirira’ey. Le hoe t’Iehodà, Akaro re ho forototoeñe.
Now it happened about three months later that Judah was told, saying, "Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has turned to prostitution, and now, look, she is pregnant by prostitution." Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burned."
25 Ie nakareñe, le nañitrifa’e saontsy i rafoza’ey, ami’ty hoe, Ty tompo’ o raha rezao ro nampive­satse ahiko. Natovo’e ty hoe, Ehe hotsohotso hey, ia ty tompo’ o bange-pitombokeo, o talio, vaho o kobaiñeo?
When she was brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, "By the man who owns these I am pregnant." She also said, "Please discern whose these are—the signet, and the cord, and the staff."
26 Niantofa’ Iehodà i raha rey vaho nanao ty hoe, Mahity te amako re amy te tsy natoloko aze i Selà anakoy. Fe tsy niolora’e ka.
Then Judah recognized them, and said, "She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah." He did not sleep with her again.
27 Tondroke amy fisamaha’e te inay, hambañe ty an-kovi’e ao.
It happened when it was time for her to give birth, that look, there were twins in her womb.
28 Aa ie nitsongo, nakare’ ty raike ty taña’e vaho finehe’ i mpanahay fole mena i taña­ñey le nanao ty hoe, Itoy ty niakatse valoha’e.
As she was in labor, one put out a hand, and the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it on his hand, saying, "This one came out first."
29 Aa ie nanintoñe i taña’ey, le hehe te nipotitse eo ty zai’e, vaho hoe re, Akore ty niboroboñafa’o? ho ama’o o jebañe zao. Aa le natao ty hoe ­Perètse ty añara’e.
It happened, as he drew back his hand, that look, his brother came out, and she said, "How did you break through?" So he was named Perez.
30 Niboake nandimbe aze i rahalahi’ey ninday i fole menay an-taña’ey, le natao Zeràke ty añara’e.
Afterward his brother came out, that had the scarlet thread on his hand, so he was named Zerah.
