1 Mosebok 38
1 I same tidi bar det so til at Juda for nedyver frå brørne sine, og gav seg til hjå ein mann i Adullam som heitte Hira.
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 Der såg Juda dotter åt ein kananitisk mann som heitte Sua, og han tok henne til kona, og budde i hop med henne.
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 Og ho vart med barn, og åtte ein son; honom kalla han Er.
And she conceived and she bore a son and he called name his Er.
4 So vart ho med barn ein gong til, og åtte ein son, og ho kalla honom Onan.
And she conceived again and she bore a son and she called name his Onan.
5 Sidan åtte ho endå ein son, og kalla honom Sela; då ho fekk honom, var Juda i 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 Og Juda feste ei kone åt Er, eldste son sin; ho heitte Tamar.
And he took Judah a wife for Er firstborn his and name her [was] Tamar.
7 Men Herren tykte ille um Er, eldste son åt Juda, og Herren laga det so at han døydde.
And he was Er [the] firstborn of Judah evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and he put to death him Yahweh.
8 Då sagde Juda med Onan: «Tak brorkona di heim til deg, og gift deg med henne, so du held uppe ætti åt bror din!»
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 Men Onan visste at borni ikkje skulde vera hans; og når han låg med enkja etter bror sin, let han det spillast på jordi, so han ikkje skulde gjeva bror sin avkjøme.
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 Og Herren tykte ille um det han gjorde, og laga det so at han og døydde.
And it was evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh [that] which he had done and he put to death also him.
11 Då sagde Juda til Tamar, sonekona si: «No lyt du sitja enkja i huset åt far din, til Sela, son min, er vaksen!» For han tenkte: «Elles kjem han og til å døy, som brørne hans.» So for Tamar heim att, og budde hjå far sin.
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 Då det leid frametter ei tid, døydde dotter åt Sua, kona hans Juda. Og då syrgjetidi var ute, gjekk Juda upp til Timna, til deim som klypte sauerne hans, både han og venen hans, Hira frå Adullam.
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 Og Tamar fekk spurt det; for det kom ein og sagde med henne: «Sjå, verfar din er på veg upp til Timna og vil klyppa sauerne sine.»
And it was told to Tamar saying there! father-in-law your [is] going up Timnah towards to shear sheep his.
14 Då lagde ho av seg enkjebunaden sin, og kasta på seg ei kåpa og sveipte henne vel kring seg, og so sette ho seg frammed ledet utfor Enajim, på vegen til Timna. For ho såg at Sela var vaksen, og at ho ikkje fekk honom.
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 Då Juda såg henne, tenkte han det var ei skjøkja, av di ho heldt kåpa attfor andlitet.
And he saw her Judah and he considered her to a prostitute for she had covered face her.
16 So tok han av vegen, og gjekk innåt henne og sagde: «Kom og lat meg få liggja med deg!» For han visste ikkje at det var sonekona hans. Då sagde ho: «Kva gjev du meg, er so du fær liggja med meg?»
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 «Eg skal senda deg eit kid av buskapen min, » sagde han. «Gjev meg so noko i vissa då, til du sender meg det!» sagde ho.
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 «Kva vissa skal eg gjeva deg?» sagde han. «Seglringen din og lekkjet ditt og staven som du hev i handi, » sagde ho. Det gav han henne, og so fekk han liggja med henne, og ho vart fremmeleg med honom.
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 Og ho stod upp og gjekk sin veg, og lagde av seg kåpa og hadde på seg enkjebunaden sin.
And she arose and she went and she removed veil her from on her and she put on [the] clothes of widowhood her.
20 Og Juda sende kidet med venen sin, han frå Adullam, og bad honom få att vissa av kvinna; men han fann henne ikkje.
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 Og han spurde folki i grendi hennar og sagde: «Kvar er skjøkja, ho i Enajim, frammed vegen?» Men dei sagde: «Det hev ikkje vore nokor skjøkje her.»
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 So kom han attende til Juda og sagde: «Eg fann henne ikkje, og folki der i grendi sagde endå det: «Det hev ikkje vore nokor skjøkja her.»»
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 Då sagde Juda: «Lat henne hava det, so me ikkje fær skam av dette! Kidet veit du no eg hev sendt, men du fann henne ikkje.»
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 So var det på lag tri månader etter, då kom dei og sagde med Juda: «Tamar, sonekona di, hev lagt seg burt, so ho jamvel hev vorte med barn.» Då sagde Juda: «Leid henne ut! Ho skal brennast.»
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 Då dei so leide henne ut, sende ho bod til verfar sin og sagde: «Det er med den mannen som eig dette, at eg hev vorte med barn. Du skulde vel ikkje vita kven som eig denne seglringen og lekki og staven?» sagde ho.
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 Og Juda kjendest med det, og sagde: «Ho er i sin gode rett imot meg; for eg let henne ikkje få Sela, son min.» Og han låg ikkje med henne meir.
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 Då det so leid til at ho skulde eiga barn, sjå, då var det tvillingar i livet hennar.
And it was at [the] time gave birth she and there! twins [were] in womb her.
28 Og i det same ho fødde, rette den eine handi fram. Då tok ljosmori og batt ein raud tråd kring handi hans, og sagde: «Denne kom fyrst.»
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 Men so drog han handi attende, og då kom bror hans fram! Då sagde ho: «Korleis er det du bryt deg fram!» Og dei kalla honom 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 So kom bror hans, han som hadde den raude tråden kring handi. Honom kalla dei Zerah.
And after he came out brother his whom [was] on hand his the scarlet thread and someone called name his Zerah.
