About that time, Judah left his brothers and settled near a man named Hirah, an Adullamite.

There Judah saw the daughter of a Canaanite man named Shua, and he took her as a wife and slept with her.

BSB:
Now Judah acquired a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.

ROW
Te Er naa, deꞌulaka na seli. Naa de, Lamatualain hukun nisa e. De ana mate nda hela anaꞌ sa.
BSB
BSB:
But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; so the LORD put him to death.
8
ROW
Basa ma, Yahuda denu ana karua na nae, “Onan! Aꞌa ma mate ena, te nda ma anaꞌ sa. De ia naa, tungga atahori lasiꞌ ra, musi nggati aꞌa ma fo sao mala sao na. Fo fee aꞌa ma tititi-nonosiꞌ.”
BSB
BSB:
Then Judah said to Onan, “Sleep with your brother’s wife. Perform your duty as her brother-in-law and raise up offspring for your brother.”
9
ROW
Onan nahine adat naa ena. Te ana nda nau fee tititi-nonosiꞌ neu aꞌa na Er sa. De mete ma ana sungguꞌ no Tamar, naa, ana nggari hendi fini a, naa fo Tamar nda bꞌonggi sa.
BSB
BSB:
But Onan knew that the offspring would not belong to him; so whenever he would sleep with his brother’s wife, he would spill his seed on the ground so that he would not produce offspring for his brother.
10
ROW
Onan tatao na taꞌo naa, tao fee Lamatualain namanasa seli. Naa de Lamatualain o hukun nisa e boe.
BSB
BSB:
What he did was wicked in the sight of the LORD, so He put Onan to death as well.

Malole lenaꞌ baliꞌ misiꞌ ina-ama mara leo. Dei fo ana ngga Sela naꞌamoko fo, baliꞌ uma sao mala e.” Boe ma Tamar baliꞌ.
BSB
BSB:
Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” For he thought, “He may die too, like his brothers.” So Tamar went to live in her father’s house.
12
ROW
Nda doo sa ma, Yahuda sao na mate. De ana susa losa fai sususaꞌ basa. Basa naa ma, ana noꞌe nonoo na naran Hira, de ruꞌa se kambo Timna reu. Sia naa, atahori ra raꞌabꞌue nggute bibꞌi lombo fuluꞌ, fo seo.

After a long time Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to his sheepshearers at Timnah.

BSB
BSB:
she removed her widow’s garments, covered her face with a veil to disguise herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that although Shelah had grown up, she had not been given to him as a wife.
15
ROW
Leleꞌ Yahuda tungga lelesu ineꞌ a, nita inaꞌ esa. Nae neꞌo ina dalaꞌ, huu Tamar koao no bua-baꞌu na, ma mboti mata na.
BSB
BSB:
When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute because she had covered her face.
16
ROW
Yahuda nda bubꞌuluꞌ nae, naa eni ana feto feu na sa. Dadꞌi ana neu deka-deka inaꞌ naa, de natane nae, “We! Mete ma au o ho naa, moꞌe baꞌu sa?” Tamar nataa nae, “Neu. Miaꞌ a amaꞌ hihii na.”
BSB
BSB:
Not realizing that she was his daughter-in-law, he went over to her and said, “Come now, let me sleep with you.” “What will you give me for sleeping with you?” she inquired.
18
ROW
Yahuda naloe nae, “Ona bee, au fee hiek esa, do?” Tamar naselu nae, “Malole, Amaꞌ. Sadꞌi fee au toꞌu saa dadꞌi neu nemehereꞌ dei. Losa sudꞌiꞌ a fai hiraꞌ amaꞌ haitua hiek a nema.”
BSB
BSB:
“What pledge should I give you?” he asked. She answered, “Your seal and your cord, and the staff in your hand.” So he gave them to her and slept with her, and she became pregnant by him.
19
ROW
Boe ma Yahuda natane nae, “Au fee saa dadꞌi neu nemehereꞌ?” Tamar nataa nae, “Amaꞌ fee hela cap fo mana doko-dokoꞌ, no tali na sia boto ma. Ma lao hela teteas boe.” Rena taꞌo naa, ma Yahuda fee basa saa naa ra neu e. De ruꞌa se reu sungguꞌ raꞌabꞌue. Basa ma, Tamar baliꞌ. Ana olu hendi bua-baꞌu meulau na no lafe anaꞌ naa, de pake baliꞌ bua-baꞌu ina falu na. Nda bubꞌuluꞌ sa te, Tamar nairu.
BSB
BSB:
Then Tamar got up and departed. And she removed her veil and put on her widow’s garments again.
20
ROW
Nda doo sa fai, Yahuda noꞌe tulun nonoo na Hira nae, “Mendi hiek ia fee ina dalaꞌ sia Enaim dei, fo haꞌi mala baliꞌ au sudꞌi a saa ngga fo ana toꞌu a.” Hira neu losa naa ma, natane neu nema, te nda nandaa no inaꞌ naa sa.
BSB
BSB:
Now when Judah sent his friend Hirah the Adullamite with the young goat to collect the items he had left with the woman, he could not find her.
21
ROW
Boe ma natane atahori mana sia naa ra nae, “We! Hei mita ina dalaꞌ fo laꞌefa naa ana endoꞌ sia lelesu ineꞌ ia, do? Ana sia bee?” Te rataa rae, “Amaꞌ, ina dalaꞌ nese ia.”
BSB
BSB:
He asked the men of that place, “Where is the shrine prostitute who was beside the road at Enaim?” “No shrine prostitute has been here,” they answered.
22
ROW
De Hira baliꞌ nisiꞌ Yahuda neu. Nafadꞌe nae, “Au nda undaa o inaꞌ naa sa. Au sangga-sangga, te atahori rae, ina dalaꞌ nese naa.”
BSB
BSB:
So Hirah returned to Judah and said, “I could not find her, and furthermore, the men of that place said, ‘No shrine prostitute has been here.’”
23
ROW
Yahuda nataa nae, “Hela sudꞌi a saa naa ra, fo ana soa se. Sadꞌi atahori afiꞌ tao raꞌamamaeꞌ hita. Au ae bae, te nda tandaa to e sa na.”
BSB
BSB:
“Let her keep the items,” Judah replied. “Otherwise we will become a laughingstock. After all, I did send her this young goat, but you could not find her.”
24
ROW
Seli fula telu ma, atahori reu rafadꞌe Yahuda rae, “Ana feto feu ma Tamar tao ao na dadꞌi ina dalaꞌ. De ia naa ana nairu ena.” Rena taꞌo naa, ma Yahuda namanasa seli. De ana parenda atahori nara nae, “Mi lea mo inaꞌ naa nema, fo lalangge e horis!”
BSB
BSB:
About three months later, Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has prostituted herself, and now she is pregnant.” “Bring her out!” Judah replied. “Let her be burned to death!”
25
ROW
De reu lea rendi Tamar. Te ana haꞌi cap no teteas a. Boe ma ana denu rafadꞌe ama ari na nae, “Amaꞌ, tulun paresaꞌ sudꞌi a saa ia ra dei. Tenu-enaꞌ cap ma teteas ia, tao au uiru.”
BSB
BSB:
As she was being brought out, Tamar sent a message to her father-in-law: “I am pregnant by the man to whom these items belong.” And she added, “Please examine them. Whose seal and cord and staff are these?”
26
ROW
Nita sudꞌi a saa naa ra, ma Yahuda nahine neuꞌ ena, nae eni ena na. De nafadꞌe nae, “Memaꞌ! Inaꞌ naa nda sala sa. Mana salaꞌ a, au. Matetu na, au musi uꞌusasaoꞌ e no ana ngga Sela. Te huu au nda nau sa. Mboꞌi e neu!” Boe ma, Yahuda nda naꞌabꞌue no Tamar sa ena.
BSB
BSB:
Judah recognized the items and said, “She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not have relations with her again.
27
ROW
Tamar fula-fai bobꞌonggi na losa ma, ana bꞌonggi ana dꞌuaꞌ.
BSB
BSB:
When the time came for Tamar to give birth, there were twins in her womb.
28

Leleꞌ ana bꞌonggi, anaꞌ esa lima na naꞌahuluꞌ dea nema. De mana naꞌabꞌobꞌonggiꞌ a paꞌa aba mbilas neu lima na. Ana nae, “Ia, kaesa na.”
BSB
BSB:
And as she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand; so the midwife took a scarlet thread and tied it around his wrist. “This one came out first,” she announced.
29
ROW
Te anaꞌ naa lea baliꞌ lima na. De nonoo na dea nema naꞌahuluꞌ. Mana naꞌabꞌobꞌonggiꞌ a nafadꞌe neu anaꞌ naa nae, “We! Ho memaꞌ maꞌadereꞌ o. Naa de, mukuseseti muꞌuhuluꞌ dea muu!” Ara babꞌae anaꞌ naa, Peres (sosoa na, ‘naseseti dea nema’).
BSB
BSB:
But when he pulled his hand back and his brother came out, she said, “You have broken out first!” So he was named Perez.
30
ROW
Dei de, odꞌi na mana paꞌa aba mbilas a dea nema. Ara babꞌae e, Sera (sosoa na, ‘mbila raraa’).
BSB
BSB:
Then his brother came out with the scarlet thread around his wrist, and he was named Zerah.
