1 Мојсијева 38
1 А у то време догоди се, те Јуда отиде од браће своје и уврати се код неког Одоламејца, коме име беше Ирас.
And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 И онде виде Јуда кћер неког Хананејца, коме име беше Сава, и узе је и леже с њом;
And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her.
3 И она затрудне и роди сина, коме надеде име Ир.
And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.
4 И опет затрудневши роди сина, коме надеде име Авнан.
And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.
5 И опет роди сина, и надеде му име Силом; а Јуда беше у Хасви кад она тога роди.
And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.
6 И Јуда ожени првенца свог Ира девојком по имену Тамара.
And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.
7 Али Ир првенац Јудин беше неваљао пред Господом, и уби га Господ.
And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.
8 А Јуда рече Авнану: Уђи к жени брата свог и ожени се њом на име братово, да подигнеш семе брату свом.
And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto your brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to your brother.
9 А Авнан, знајући да неће бити његов пород, кад леже са женом брата свог просипаше на земљу, да не роди деце брату свом.
And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.
10 Али Господу не би мило што чињаше, те уби и њега.
And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.
11 И Јуда рече Тамари снаси својој: Остани удовицом у кући оца свог докле одрасте Силом син мој. Јер говораше: Да не умре и он као браћа му. И отиде Тамара, и живеше у кући оца свог.
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at your father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest possibly he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
12 А кад прође много времена, умре кћи Савина, жена Јудина. И кад се Јуда утеши, пође у Тамну к људима што му стрижаху овце, сам с Ирасом пријатељем својим Одоламејцем.
And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
13 И јавише Тамари говорећи: Ето свекар твој иде у Тамну да стриже овце своје.
And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold your father in law goes up to Timnath to shear his sheep.
14 А она скиде са себе удовичко рухо своје, и узе покривало и покри лице, и седе на раскршће на путу који иде у Тамну. Јер виде да је Силом одрастао, а њу још не удаше за њ.
And she put her widow's garments off from her, and covered her with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife.
15 А Јуда када виде, помисли да је курва, јер беше покрила лице своје.
When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.
16 Па сврну с пута к њој и рече јој: Пусти да легнем с тобом. Јер није познао да му је снаха. А она рече: Шта ћеш ми дати да легнеш са мном?
And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray you, let me come in unto you; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What will you give me, that you may come in unto me?
17 А он рече: Послаћу ти јаре из стада. А она рече: Али да ми даш залог докле га не пошаљеш.
And he said, I will send you a kid from the flock. And she said, Will you give me a pledge, till you send it?
18 А он рече: Какав залог да ти дам? А она рече: Ето, прстен и рубац, и штап што ти је у руци. И он јој даде, те леже с њом, и она затрудне од њега.
And he said, What pledge shall I give you? And she said, Your signet, and your bracelets, and your staff that is in your hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
19 После уставши Тамара отиде и скиде покривало са себе и обуче удовичко рухо.
And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 А Јуда посла јаре по пријатељу свом Одоламејцу да му донесе натраг од жене залог. Али је он не нађе.
And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not.
21 Па питаше људе по оном месту где је она била говорећи: Где је она курва што је била на раскршћу на овом путу? А они рекоше: Није овде било курве.
Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this place.
22 И врати се к Јуди и рече: Не нађох је, него још рекоше мештани: Није овде било курве.
And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, that there was no harlot in this place.
23 А Јуда рече: Нека јој, да се не срамотимо; ја сам слао јаре, али је ти не нађе.
And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and you have not found her.
24 А кад прође до три месеца дана, јавише Јуди говорећи: Тамара снаха твоја учини прељубу, и ево затрудне од прељубе. А Јуда рече: Изведите је да се спали.
And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar your daughter in law has played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.
25 А кад је поведоше, посла к свекру свом и поручи: С човеком чије је ово затруднела сам. И рече: Тражи чији је овај прстен и рубац и штап.
When she was brought forth, she sent to her father in law, saying, By the man, whose these are, am I with child: and she said, Discern, I pray you, whose are these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff.
26 А Јуда позна и рече: Правија је од мене, јер је не дадох сину свом Силому. И више не леже с њом.
And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She has been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he had sexual contact with her again no more.
27 А кад дође време да роди, а то близанци у утроби њеној.
And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.
28 И кад се порађаше, једно дете помоли руку, а бабица узе и веза му црвен конац око руке говорећи: Овај је први.
And it came to pass, when she travailed, that the one put out his hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.
29 Али он увуче руку, и гле изађе брат његов, а она рече: Како продре? Продирање нека ти буде. И надеше му име Фарес.
And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How have you broken forth? this breach be upon you: therefore his name was called Pharez.
30 А после изађе брат му, коме око руке беше црвени конац, и надеше му име Зара.
And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah.
