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.

¹A stalo sa v tom čase, že Júda odišiel dolu od svojich bratov a uchýlil sa k nejakému mužovi adulamitskému, ktorému bolo meno Chíra.

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

²Tam videl Júda dcéru kananejského muža, ktorému bolo meno Šuva, a vzal si ju a vošiel k nej.

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

³A žena počala a porodila syna, a nazval jeho meno Ér.

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

⁴A zase počala a porodila syna a nazvala jeho meno Onan.

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

⁵A ešte porodila syna a nazvala jeho meno Šela. A vtedy bol v Chezibe, keď ho porodila.

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

⁶Potom vzal Júda Érovi, svojmu prvorodenému, ženu, ktorej bolo meno Támar.

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

⁷Ale Ér, prvorodený Júdov, bol zlý v očiach Hospodinových, a preto ho zabil Hospodin.

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

⁸A Júda povedal Onanovi: Vojdi k žene svojho brata a vezmi si ju za ženu podľa švagrovského práva a vzbuď svojmu bratovi semeno.

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.

⁹Ale Onan vedel, že to nebude jeho semeno, a tak bývalo, keď vošiel k žene svojho brata, že zahubil semä vypustiac ho na zem, aby nedal semena svojmu bratovi.

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

¹⁰Ale to bolo zlé v očiach Hospodinových, čo urobil, a zabil i jeho.

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.

¹¹Vtedy povedal Júda Támari, svojej neveste: Zostaň vdovou v dome svojho otca, dokiaľ nedorastie Šela, môj syn. Lebo povedal: Aby nezomrel aj on ako jeho bratia. A Támar odišla a bývala v dome svojho otca.

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.

¹²A potom po dlhom čase zomrela dcéra Šuvova, žena Júdova. A keď sa potešil Júda, odišiel hore za strihačmi svojho stáda, on i Chíra, jeho adulamitský priateľ, do Timny.

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

¹³A Támari bolo oznámené, že vraj, hľa, tvoj svokor ide hore do Timny strihať svoje stádo.

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.

¹⁴Vtedy složila rúcho svojho vdovstva so seba a pokryla sa závojom a zahaliac sa sedela pri bráne Enaim, ktorá je na ceste do Timny. Lebo videla, že Šela dorástol, a že mu nebola daná za ženu.

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

¹⁵A keď uvidel Júda, myslel, že je to smilnica, pretože zakryla svoju tvár.

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?

¹⁶Vtedy sa uchýlil k nej na cestu a povedal jej: Nože dovoľ, aby som vošiel k tebe! Lebo nevedel, že je to jeho nevesta. A riekla: Čo mi dáš, keď vojdeš ku mne?

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?

¹⁷A povedal: Ja ti pošlem kozľa zo stáda. A riekla: Dobre, ak dáš záloh, dokiaľ nepošleš.

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.

¹⁸A on povedal: Aký to má byť záloh, ktorý ti dám? A riekla: Svoj pečatný prsteň, svoj náhrdelník a svoju palicu, ktorú máš vo svojej ruke. A dal jej a vošiel k nej, a počala mu.

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

¹⁹Potom vstala a odišla a složila svoj závoj so seba a obliekla si rúcho svojho vdovstva.

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.

²⁰A Júda poslal kozľa po svojom adulamitskom priateľovi, aby vzal záloh z ruky ženy, ale jej nenašiel.

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.

²¹Vtedy sa pýtalo mužov, ktorí boli z jej mesta, a povedal: Kde je tá zasvätená, ktorá sedela v Enaime pri ceste? A riekli: Nebolo tu zasvätenej.

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.

²²Vtedy sa navrátil k Júdovi a povedal: Nenašiel som jej. I mužovia toho miesta tiež vraveli: Nebolo tu zasvätenej.

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

²³A Júda povedal: Nech si to vezme. Aby sme neboli na potupu. Hľa, poslal som toto kozľa, ale ty si jej nenašiel.

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.

²⁴A stalo sa tak asi o tri mesiace, že bolo oznámené Júdovi, že vraj Támar, tvoja nevesta, dopustila sa smilstva, a hľa, aj je tehotná od svojho smilstva. A Júda povedal: Vyveďte ju, aby bola upálená.

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.

²⁵A keď ju už viedli, poslala k svojmu svokrovi a odkázala mu: Od muža, ktorému patria tieto veci, som tehotná. A ešte dodala: Poznaj, prosím, čie sú to veci: pečatný prsteň, náhrdelník a palica!

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.

²⁶A Júda poznal veci a povedal: Je spravedlivejšia ako ja, lebo to preto, že som jej nedal Šelovi, svojmu synovi. A viac jej nepoznal.

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

²⁷A stalo sa v tom čase, keď mala porodiť, že hľa, ukázalo sa, že sú dvojčatá v jej živote.

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.

²⁸A stalo sa v tom, keď rodila, že jedno vystrčilo ruku, a baba vzala a priviazala na jeho ruku červenú niť a riekla: Tento vyšiel prvý.

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.

²⁹A stalo sa, keď vtiahol zpät svoju ruku, že hľa, vyšiel jeho brat. A riekla: Prečo si pretrhol? Na teba pripadne pretrhnutie. A tak nazvali jeho meno Fáres.

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

³⁰A potom vyšiel jeho brat, ktorý mal na ruke červenú niť. A nazvali jeho meno Zárach.
