Genesis

38

1It happened at that time, that Judah went down from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
1 Alwaato din ra Yahuda dira ka fun nga nya-izey do ka koy ka goro Adullam kwaara boro fo do, kaŋ maa Hira.
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.
2Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. He took her, and went in to her.
2 Noodin binde Yahuda di wandiyo fo kaŋ baabo maa Suwa, Kanaanance fo no. A n'a hiiji ka margu nd'a.
2And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. And he took her, and went in unto her.
3She conceived, and bore a son; and he named him Er.
3 A te gunde ka hay ize alboro k'a maa daŋ Er.
3And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.
4She conceived again, and bore a son; and she named him Onan.
4 A ye ka te gunde ka hay ize alboro k'a maa daŋ Onan.
4And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.
5She yet again bore a son, and named him Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bore him.
5 A ye ka hay ize alboro koyne k'a maa daŋ Sela. A go Keziba saaya kaŋ a n'a hay.
5And she yet again bare a son, and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.
6Judah took a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
6 Yahuda na wande sambu nga hay-jine Er se, kaŋ maa Tamar.
6And Judah took a wife for Er his first-born, and her name was Tamar.
7Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of Yahweh. Yahweh killed him.
7 Amma Yahuda hay-jina Er wo, boro laalo no Rabbi jine, Rabbi n'a wi mo.
7And Er, Judah's first-born, was wicked in the sight of Jehovah. And Jehovah slew him.
8Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother’s wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her, and raise up seed to your brother.”
8 Yahuda mo ne Onan se: «Kala ni ma margu nda ni nya izo wando. Ni ma kurnye kayne wazibo toonandi a do, ka dumi jisi ni nya izo se.»
8And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and perform the duty of a husband's brother unto her, and raise up seed to thy brother.
9Onan knew that the seed wouldn’t be his; and it happened, when he went in to his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest he should give seed to his brother.
9 Onan binde bay kaŋ dumo si ciya nga wane. A ciya binde waato kaŋ a margu nda nga nya izo wando, kal a na dumo mun ganda laabo ra, zama nga ma si dumi no nga nya izo se.
9And Onan knew that the seed would 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 he should give seed to his brother.
10The thing which he did was evil in the sight of Yahweh, and he killed him also.
10 Haŋ kaŋ a te din binde, goy laalo no Rabbi jine, a na nga mo wi.
10And the thing which he did was evil in the sight of Jehovah: and he slew him also.
11Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father’s house, until Shelah, my son, is grown up”; for he said, “Lest he also die, like his brothers.” Tamar went and lived in her father’s house.
11 Saaya din Yahuda ne nga anzura Tamar se: «Kala ni ma goborotaray goray te ni baaba windo ra, hal ay izo Sela ma beeri.» Zama a ne nga mo ma si koy ka bu danga a nya izey cine. Tamar binde koy ka goro nga baabo windo ra.
11Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter-in-law, Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown up; for he said, Lest he also die, like his brethren. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.
12After many days, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheepshearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.
12 Jirbiyaŋ bisa, kala Suwa izo, Yahuda wando bu. Kaŋ Yahuda n'a seew, waato din gaa a koy nga feejey hamni hõsekoy do, Timnat haray, nga nda nga cora Hira, Adullam bora.
12And in process of time Shua's daughter, the wife of Judah, died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheep-shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
13It was told Tamar, saying, “Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
13 I ci Tamar se ka ne: «Guna, ni anzuray neeya ga koy Timnat ka nga feejey hõse.»
13And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold, thy father-in-law goeth up to Timnah to shear his sheep.
14She took off of her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she wasn’t given to him as a wife.
14 Kal a na seew bankaarayey kaa ka jisi, ka bangum ka daabu _danga mate kaŋ kaaruwa ga te|_. A koy ka goro Enam kwaara meyo gaa, kaŋ go Timnat fonda boŋ. Zama a di kaŋ Sela beeri, amma i mana nga no a se, a m'a hiiji.
14And she put off from her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she was not given unto him to wife.
15When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
15 Saaya kaŋ Yahuda di a, a ga ho hala kaaruwa no, zama a na nga moyduma daabu.
15When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a harlot; for she had covered her face.
16He turned to her by the way, and said, “Please come, let me come in to you,” for he didn’t know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”
16 Kala Yahuda kamba a do fonda boŋ ka ne: «Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma naŋ ay ma margu nda nin.» (zama a mana bay hala nga anzura no.) Waybora ne: «Ifo no ni g'ay no, zama ni ma margu nda ay?»
16And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Come, 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?
17He said, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” She said, “Will you give me a pledge, until you send it?”
17 Yahuda ne: «Ay ga hincin ize fo samba ni se, ay kurey ra.» Waybora ne: «M'ay no tolme hala ni g'a samba.»
17And he said, I will send thee a kid of the goats from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?
18He said, “What pledge will I give you?” She said, “Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” He gave them to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
18 A ne: «Tolme fo dumi n'ay ga no ni se?» Waybora ne: «Ni kawaatimo da ni jinda gaa korfo wo, da ni goobo kaŋ go ni kambe ra.» Kal a n'i no a se. A margu nd'a mo. Nga mo na gunde sambu a do.
18And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet and thy cord, and thy staff that is in thy hand. And he gave them to her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.
19She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
19 Kala Tamar tun ka nga koyyaŋ te. A na nga bangumo kaa ka nga seew bankaarayey daŋ koyne.
19And she arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman’s hand, but he didn’t find her.
20 Yahuda mo na hincin ize fo samba a se nga cora Adullam bora kambe ra, zama a ma tolma ta waybora gaa, amma a mana di a.
20And Judah sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand: but he found her not.
21Then he asked the men of her place, saying, “Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?” They said, “There has been no prostitute here.”
21 Gaa no a na noodin borey hã naŋ kaŋ a go ka ne: «Mana kaaruwa din kaŋ go Enam fonda me gaa waato?» I ne: «Kaaruwa kulu si no kaŋ te nango wo ra.»
21Then he asked the men of her place, saying, Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the wayside? And they said, There hath been no prostitute here.
22He returned to Judah, and said, “I haven’t found her; and also the men of the place said, ‘There has been no prostitute here.’”
22 Kal a ye Yahuda do ka ne: «Ay mana di a. A binde, noodin borey ne kaaruwa kulu mana te noodin.»
22And he returned to Judah, and said, I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, There hath been no prostitute here.
23Judah said, “Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you haven’t found her.”
23 Yahuda binde ne: «Fay d'a, a m'a gaay hala iri ma si haaw. A go, ay na hincin izo wo samba, amma ni mana di a.»
23And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be put to shame: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
24It happened about three months later, that it was told Judah, saying, “Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute; and moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution.” Judah said, “Bring her out, and let her be burnt.”
24 A go no, i te danga handu hinza cine, kal i ci Yahuda se ka ne: «Ni anzura Tamar te kaaruwa. A go mo da gunde, kaaruwataray wane.» Yahuda ne: «I ma kond'a taray k'a ton.»
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 moreover, behold, she is with child by whoredom. And Judah said, Bring her forth, and let her be burnt.
25When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “By the man, whose these are, I am with child.” She also said, “Please discern whose are these—the signet, and the cords, and the staff.”
25 Saaya kaŋ i fatta nd'a, waybora donton nga anzura gaa ka ne: «Bora kaŋ wane no harey wo, a do no ay na gunde sambu.» A ne mo: «Ay ga ni ŋwaaray, ma bay boro kaŋ wane yaŋ no, ngey: kawaatimo wo, da jinde korfo wo da goobo wo.»
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 the cords, and the staff.
26Judah acknowledged them, and said, “She is more righteous than I, because I didn’t give her to Shelah, my son.” He knew her again no more.
26 Yahuda binde yadda ka ne: «A bisa ay cimi, za kaŋ ay man'a no ay izo Sela.» Yahuda mana ye ka Tamar bay koyne.
26And Judah acknowledged them, and said, She is more righteous than I; forasmuch as I gave her not to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.
27It happened in the time of her travail, that behold, twins were in her womb.
27 A te ka ciya mo, a hay-zaŋa waate, kala tawayyaŋ go a gunda ra.
27And it came to pass in the time of her travail, that, behold, twins were in her womb.
28When she travailed, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This came out first.”
28 Kaŋ a go hay-zaŋa gaa, kal afo na nga kambe salle. Fuuma dumbukwa na kamba di ka silli ciray haw kamba gaa ka ne: «Woone no ka fatta sintina.»
28And it came to pass, when she travailed, that one put out a hand: and the midwife took and bound upon his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.
29It happened, as he drew back his hand, that behold, his brother came out, and she said, “Why have you made a breach for yourself?” Therefore his name was called Perez.
29 A go mo, a na nga kamba ye. Kala nya izo go ga fatta. Fuuma dumbukwa ne: «Man kottimo kaŋ ni te ni boŋ se din misa?» Woodin se no i n'a maa daŋ Farisa.
29And it came to pass, as he drew back his hand, that, behold, his brother came out: and she said, Wherefore hast thou made a breach for thyself? Therefore his name was called Perez.
30Afterward his brother came out, that had the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
30 Kokor banda a nya izo mo fatta, bora kaŋ silli cira go a kambe gaa. I n'a maa daŋ Zera.
30And afterward came out his brother, that had the scarlet thread upon his hand: and his name was called Zerah.
