¹And 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.

¹Sel ajal läks Juuda ära oma vendade juurest ja siirdus ühe Adullami mehe juurde, kelle nimi oli Hiira.

²And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her.

²Ja Juuda nägi seal kaananlase, Suua-nimelise mehe tütart, võttis selle ning heitis ta juurde.

³And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.

³Ja see jäi lapseootele ning tõi poja ilmale; ja ta pani sellele nimeks Eer.

⁴And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.

⁴Ja tema jäi taas lapseootele ning tõi poja ilmale; ja ta pani sellele nimeks Oonan.

⁵And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.

⁵Ja tema tõi veel ühe poja ilmale ja pani sellele nimeks Seela; ta oli Kesibis, kui ta selle ilmale tõi.

⁶And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.

⁶Ja Juuda võttis Eerile, oma esmasündinule, naise nimega Taamar.

⁷And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.

⁷Aga Eer, Juuda esmasündinu, oli Issanda silmis paha ja Issand laskis tema surra.

⁸And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.

⁸Siis Juuda ütles Oonanile: 'Heida oma venna naise juurde, ole temale mehe eest ja soeta oma vennale sugu!'

⁹And 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.

⁹Kuna aga Oonan teadis, et sugu ei pidanud saama temale, siis heites oma venna naise juurde ta hävitas oma seemne maha pillates, et mitte anda sugu oma vennale.

¹⁰And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also.

¹⁰Aga see, mis ta tegi, oli Issanda silmis paha ja ta laskis surra ka tema.

¹¹Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.

¹¹Siis Juuda ütles oma miniale Taamarile: 'Jää lesena oma isakotta elama, kuni mu poeg Seela on kasvanud suuremaks!' Sest ta mõtles: 'Muidu sureb seegi nagu ta vennad.' Ja Taamar läks ning jäi oma isakotta elama.

¹²And 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.

¹²Mõne aja pärast suri Suua tütar, Juuda naine. Kui Juuda leinaaeg oli möödunud, siis ta läks üles Timnasse oma lammaste niitjate juurde, tema ja ta sõber Hiira, Adullami mees.

¹³And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep.

¹³Ja Taamarile anti teada ning öeldi: 'Vaata, su äi läheb üles Timnasse lambaid niitma.'

¹⁴And 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.

¹⁴Siis ta võttis lesepõlve riided seljast ära, varjas ennast looriga ja kattis enese kinni ning istus Eenaimi väravasse, kust tee viib Timnasse, sest ta oli näinud, et Seela oli kasvanud suureks, teda aga ei olnud antud temale naiseks.

¹⁵When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.

¹⁵Kui Juuda teda nägi, siis ta pidas teda hooraks, sest ta oli oma näo kinni katnud.

¹⁶And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?

¹⁶Ja ta pöördus teelt tema poole ning ütles: 'Lase ma heidan su juurde!' Sest ta ei teadnud, et see oli tema minia. Aga too vastas: 'Mis sa mulle annad, kui sa heidad mu juurde?'

¹⁷And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?

¹⁷Ta ütles: 'Ma läkitan sulle karjast ühe sikutalle.' Ja naine vastas: 'Jah, kui sa annad mulle pandi, seniks kui sa läkitad.'

¹⁸And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.

¹⁸Siis ta küsis: 'Mis võiks olla pandiks, mille ma pean sulle andma?' Ja tema vastas: 'Su pitsat ja vöö ja kepp, mis sul käes on.' Ja ta andis need temale ning heitis ta juurde; ja naine jäi temast lapseootele.

¹⁹And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.

¹⁹Siis ta tõusis ja läks ära ning võttis eneselt loori ja pani lesepõlve riided selga.

²⁰And 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.

²⁰Ja Juuda läkitas oma sõbra, Adullami mehega sikutalle, et võtta pant naise käest; aga see ei leidnud teda.

²¹Then 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.

²¹Siis ta küsis meestelt seal paigas, öeldes: 'Kus on see liiderlik naine, kes oli Eenaimi tee ääres?' Aga need vastasid: 'Siin pole liiderlikku naist olnud.'

²²And 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.

²²Ja ta tuli tagasi Juuda juurde ning ütles: 'Ma ei leidnud teda. Ja mehedki seal paigas ütlesid: Siin pole liiderlikku naist olnud.'

²³And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.

²³Siis ütles Juuda: 'Pidagu siis enesele, et me ei satuks pilke alla! Vaata, ma läkitasin selle siku, aga sina ei leidnud teda.'

²⁴And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter in law hath played the harlot; and also, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.

²⁴Aga kolme kuu pärast teatati Juudale ja öeldi: 'Su minia Taamar on hooranud, ja vaata, ta on hooratööst jäänud ka lapseootele.' Siis ütles Juuda: 'Tooge ta välja, et ta põletataks!'

²⁵When 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 thee, whose are these, the signet, and bracelets, and staff.

²⁵Kui ta välja toodi, siis ta läkitas sõna oma äiale: 'Sellest mehest, kelle omad need on, olen ma lapseootel!' Ja ta ütles: 'Tunnista nüüd, kelle see pitsat ja vöö ja kepp on!'

²⁶And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She hath been more righteous than I; because that I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.

²⁶Ja Juuda tundis need ära ning ütles: 'Tema on minust õigem! Sest ma ei ole teda andnud oma pojale Seelale.' Ja ta ei ühtinud enam temaga.

²⁷And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.

²⁷Aga sünnitamise ajal, vaata, olid ta ihus kaksikud.

²⁸And 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.

²⁸Ja kui ta sünnitas, sirutus üks käsi välja; ja aitajanaine võttis ning sidus käe ümber helepunase lõnga, öeldes: 'See tuleb esmalt välja!'

²⁹And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, How hast thou broken forth? this breach be upon thee: therefore his name was called Pharez.

²⁹Aga kui ta oma käe tagasi tõmbas, vaata, siis tuli välja ta vend. Ja aitajanaine ütles: 'Missuguse lõhe sa küll enesele oled rebestanud!' Ja temale pandi nimeks Perets.

³⁰And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zarah.

³⁰Ja pärast tuli välja tema vend, kelle käe ümber oli helepunane lõng; ja temale pandi nimeks Serah.
