Genesis 38

1 Dumating ang panahon na iniwan ni Juda ang kanyang mga kapatid na lalaki at tumira sa isang Adullamita, na ang pangalan ay Hira.

Now at that time, Judah went away from his brothers and became the friend of a man of Adullam named Hirah.

2 Nakilala niya si Sua na anak ng Cananeo na lalaki na ang pangalan ay Sua. Pinakasalan niya at sinipingan niya.

And there he saw the daughter of a certain man of Canaan named Shua, and took her as his wife.

3 Siya ay nabuntis at nagkaroon ng anak na lalaki. Siya ay pinangalanan Er.

And she gave birth to a son, and he gave him the name Er.

4 Nabuntis ulit siya at nagkaroon ng isang anak na lalaki. Tinawag niya siyang Onan.

And again she gave birth to a son, and he gave him the name Onan.

5 Nagkaroon ulit siya ng isang anak at tinawag siya sa pangalang Selah. Ito ay sa Kizib kung saan siya ipinanganak.

Then she had another son, to whom she gave the name Shelah; she was at Chezib when the birth took place.

6 Nakahanap si Juda ng isang asawa para kay Er, panganay niya. Ang pangalan niya ay Tamar.

And Judah took a wife for his first son Er, and her name was Tamar.

7 Ang panganay niyang anak na si Er ay napakasama sa paningin ni Yahweh. Pinatay siya ni Yahweh.

Now Er, Judah's first son, did evil in the eyes of the Lord, so that he put him to death.

8 Sinabi ni Juda kay Onan, “Sumiping ka kasama ng asawa ng iyong kapatid na lalaki. Gawin mo ang tungkulin bilang isang kapatid na lalaki, at palakihin mo ang isang bata para sa iyong kapatid.

Then Judah said to Onan, Go in to your brother's wife and do what it is right for a husband's brother to do; make her your wife and get offspring for your brother.

9 Alam na ni Onan na ang bata ay hindi kanya. Kapag sumisiping siya kasama ng asawa ng kanyang kapatid na lalaki, tinatapon niya sa lupa ang kanyang semilya upang hindi siya magkaroon ng anak para sa kanyang kapatid na lalaki.

But Onan, seeing that the offspring would not be his, went in to his brother's wife, but let his seed go on to the earth, so that he might not get offspring for his brother.

10 Ang ginawa niya ay naging masama sa paningin ni Yahweh. Pinatay din siya ni Yahweh.

And what he did was evil in the eyes of the Lord, so that he put him to death, like his brother.

11 Pagkatapos sinabi ni Juda kay Tamar, na kanyang manugang, “Manatili kang biyuda sa bahay ng iyong ama hanggang sa lumaki si Selah na aking anak.” Dahil sa isip niya, “Baka mamatay din siya katulad ng kanyang mga kapatid.” Umalis si Tamar at nanirahan sa bahay ng kanyang ama.

Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, Go back to your father's house and keep yourself as a widow till my son Shelah becomes a man: for he had in his mind the thought that death might come to him as it had come to his brothers. So Tamar went back to her father's house.

12 Pagkatapos ng mahabang panahon, ang anak na babae ni Sua na asawa ni Juda ay namatay. Si Juda ay naaliw at pumunta pataas sa kanyang mga manggugupit ng balahibo ng tupa sa Timnat, siya at ang kanyang kaibigan na si Hira na isang Adullamita.

And after a time, Bath-shua, Judah's wife, came to her end; and after Judah was comforted for her loss, he went to Timnah, where they were cutting the wool of his sheep, and his friend Hirah of Adullam went with him.

13 Nasabihan si Tamar, “Tingnan mo, ang iyong biyenan na lalaki ay pupunta pataas sa Timnat upang gupitan ang balahibo ng kanyang mga tupa.”

And when Tamar had news that her father-in-law was going up to Timnah to the wool-cutting,

14 Hinubad niya ang damit sa pagkabalo at tinakpan ang kanyang sarili ng isang belo at ibinalot ang sarili. Umupo siya sa tarangkahan ng Enaim, sa tabi ng daan patungong Timnat. Dahil nakita niyang si Selah ay lumaki na ngunit hindi siya binigay bilang asawa niya.

She took off her widow's clothing, and covering herself with her veil, she took her seat near Enaim on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was now a man, but she had not been made his wife.

15 Nang makita siya ni Juda naisip niya na siya ay isang babaeng bayaran dahil tinakpan niya ang kanyang mukha.

When Judah saw her he took her to be a loose woman of the town, because her face was covered.

16 Pumunta siya sa kanya sa tabing daan at sinabi, “Halika, pakiusap hayaan mo akong sumiping sa iyo.”- Dahil di niya alam na siya ang manugang niya- at sinabi niya, “Anong ibibigay mo sa akin para sipingan kita?”

And turning to her by the roadside, he said to her, Let me come in to you; for he had no idea that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, What will you give me as my price?

17 Sinabi niya, “Papadalhan kita ng isang batang kambing na mula sa kawan.” Sinabi niya, “Maaari mo ba akong bigyan ng isang sangla hanggang maipadala mo ito?”

And he said, I will give you a young goat from the flock. And she said, What will you give me as a sign till you send it?

18 Sinabi niya, “Anong sangla ang maaari kong ibigay sa iyo?” At sinabi niya, “Ang inyong selyo at kordon, at ang tungkod na nasa iyong kamay.” Ibinigay ito sa kanya at sinipingan siya. Siya ay nabuntis sa pamamagitan niya.

And he said, What would you have? And she said, Your ring and its cord and the stick in your hand. So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she became with child by him.

19 Tumindig si Tamar at umalis palayo. Inalis niya ang kanyang belo at isinuot ang damit sa kanyang pagkabalo.

Then she got up and went away and took off her veil and put on her widow's clothing.

20 Ipinadala ni Juda ang batang kambing mula sa kawan kasama ang kanyang kaibigan na Adullamita para tanggapin ang sangla na mula sa kamay ng babae, ngunit hindi na niya siya nakita.

Then Judah sent his friend Hirah with the young goat, to get back the things which he had given as a sign to the woman: but she was not there.

21 Pagkatapos nito ay tinanong ng Adullamita ang mga lalaki sa lugar, “Nasaan na ang kultong babaeng bayaran na nasa Enaim sa tabing daan? “Sinabi nila, wala namang kultong babaeng bayaran dito.”

And he put questions to the men of the place, saying, Where is the loose woman who was in Enaim by the wayside? And they said, There was no such woman there.

22 Bumalik siya kay Juda at sinabi, “Hindi ko siya nakita. Maging ang mga lalaki sa lugar ay nagsabi, 'Walang naging kultong babaeng bayaran dito.

So he went back to Judah, and said, I have not seen her, and the men of the place say that there is no such woman there.

23 Sinabi ni Juda, “Hayaan mong itago niya ang mga bagay, baka malagay tayo sa kahihiyan. Totoo nga, ipinadala ko ang batang kambing, ngunit hindi mo siya natagpuan.”

And Judah said, Let her keep the things, so that we may not be shamed; I sent the young goat, but you did not see the woman.

24 Dumating ang panahon, pagkalipas ng tatlong buwan na sinabi kay Juda, “Ang iyong manugang na si Tamar ay naging babaeng bayaran, at totoo nga, siya ay nabuntis sa dahil doon.” Sinabi ni Juda, “Siya'y ilabas upang sunugin.”

Now about three months after this, word came to Judah that Tamar, his daughter-in-law, had been acting like a loose woman and was with child. And Judah said, Take her out and let her be burned.

25 Nang siya ay dinala palabas, nagpadala siya ng mensahe para sa kanyang biyenan na lalaki, “Dahil sa lalaking nagmamay-ari nito nabuntis ako.” Sabi niya, “Pakiusap alamin ninyo kung kaninong selyo, mga kordon at tungkod ito.”

And while she was being taken out, she sent word to her father-in-law, saying, The man whose property these things are, is the father of my child: say then, whose are this ring and this cord and this stick?

26 Nakilala ni Juda ang mga ito at sinabi, “Siya ay mas matuwid kaysa sa akin, dahil hindi ko siya ibinigay bilang isang asawa kay Selah, na aking anak na lalaki.” Siya ay hindi na muling sumiping sa kanya.

Then Judah said openly that they were his, and said, She is more upright than I am, for I did not give her to Shelah my son. And he had no more connection with her.

27 Nang siya ay manganganak na, masdan, kambal ang nasa kanyang sinapupunan.

And when the time came for her to give birth, it was clear that there were two children in her body.

28 Nang nanganganak na siya, may isang naglabas ng kamay, at kinuha ng komadrona ang isang pulang sinulid at itinali ito sa kanyang kamay at sinabi, “Ito ang unang lumabas.”

And while she was in the act of giving birth, one of them put out his hand; and the woman who was with her put a red thread round his hand, saying, This one came out first.

29 nang inurong niya ang kanyang kamay, at masdan, ang kapatid niyang lalaki ay unang lumabas. Ang komandrona ay nagsabi, “Paano ka nakalabas!” At pinangalanan siyang Perez.

But then he took his hand back again, and his brother came first to birth: and the woman said, What an opening you have made for yourself! So he was named Perez.

30 Pagkatapos ang kapatid niya ay lumabas, na mayroong pulang sinulid sa kanyang kamay, at Zera ang ipinangalan sa kanya.

And then his brother came out, with the red thread round his hand, and he was named Zerah.
