And it came to pass at that timeH6256, that JudahH3063 went downH3381 from his brethrenH251, and turnedH5186 in to a certainH376 AdullamiteH5726, whose nameH8034 was HirahH2437.
And JudahH3063 sawH7200 there a daughterH1323 of a certainH376 CanaaniteH3669, whose nameH8034 was ShuahH7770; and he took herH3947, and went inH935 unto her.
And she conceivedH2029, and bareH3205 a sonH1121; and he calledH7121 his nameH8034 ErH6147.
And she conceivedH2029 again, and bareH3205 a sonH1121; and she calledH7121 his nameH8034 OnanH209.
And she yet again conceivedH3254, and bareH3205 a sonH1121; and calledH7121 his nameH8034 ShelahH7956: and he was at ChezibH3580, when she bareH3205 him.
And JudahH3063 tookH3947 a wifeH802 for ErH6147 his firstbornH1060, whose nameH8034 was TamarH8559.
And ErH6147, Judah'sH3063 firstbornH1060, was wickedH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LORDH3068; and the LORDH3068 slewH4191 him.
And JudahH3063 saidH559 unto OnanH209, Go inH935 unto thy brother'sH251 wifeH802, and marryH2992 her, and raise upH6965 seedH2233 to thy brotherH251.
And OnanH209 knewH3045 that the seedH2233 should not be his; and it came to pass, whenH518 he went inH935 unto his brother'sH251 wifeH802, that he spilledH7843 it on the groundH776, lestH1115 that he should giveH5414 seedH2233 to his brotherH251.
And the thing whichH834 he didH6213 displeasedH3415+H5869 the LORDH3068: wherefore he slewH4191 him also. {displeased…: Heb. was evil in the eyes of the Lord}
Then saidH559 JudahH3063 to TamarH8559 his daughter in lawH3618, RemainH3427 a widowH490 at thy father'sH1 houseH1004, till ShelahH7956 my sonH1121 be grownH1431: for he saidH559, Lest peradventure he dieH4191 also, as his brethrenH251 did. And TamarH8559 wentH3212 and dweltH3427 in her father'sH1 houseH1004.
And in processH7235 of timeH3117 the daughterH1323 of ShuahH7770 Judah'sH3063 wifeH802 diedH4191; and JudahH3063 was comfortedH5162, and went upH5927 unto his sheepshearersH1494+H6629 to TimnathH8553, he and his friendH7453 HirahH2437 the AdullamiteH5726. {in process…: Heb. the days were multiplied}
And it was toldH5046 TamarH8559, sayingH559, Behold thy father in lawH2524 goeth upH5927 to TimnathH8553 to shearH1494 his sheepH6629.
And she putH5493 her widow'sH491 garmentsH899 offH5493 from her, and covered herH3680 with a vailH6809, and wrapped herselfH5968, and sat inH3427 an openH5869 placeH6607, which is by the wayH1870 to TimnathH8553; for she sawH7200 that ShelahH7956 was grownH1431, and she was not givenH5414 unto him to wifeH802. {an open…: Heb. the door of eyes, or, of Enajim}
When JudahH3063 saw herH7200, he thoughtH2803 her to be an harlotH2181; because she had coveredH3680 her faceH6440.
And he turnedH5186 unto her by the wayH1870, and saidH559, Go toH3051, I pray thee, let me come inH935 unto thee; (for he knewH3045 not that she was his daughter in lawH3618.) And she saidH559, What wilt thou giveH5414 me, that thou mayest come inH935 unto me?
And he saidH559, I will sendH7971 thee a kidH5795+H1423 from the flockH6629. And she saidH559, Wilt thou giveH5414 me a pledgeH6162, till thou sendH7971 it? {a kid: Heb. a kid of the goats}
And he saidH559, WhatH834 pledgeH6162 shall I giveH5414 thee? And she saidH559, Thy signetH2368, and thy braceletsH6616, and thy staffH4294 that is in thine handH3027. And he gaveH5414 it her, and came inH935 unto her, and she conceivedH2029 by him.
And she aroseH6965, and went awayH3212, and laid byH5493 her vailH6809 from her, and put onH3847 the garmentsH899 of her widowhoodH491.
And JudahH3063 sentH7971 the kidH1423+H5795 by the handH3027 of his friendH7453 the AdullamiteH5726, to receiveH3947 his pledgeH6162 from the woman'sH802 handH3027: but he found herH4672 not.
Then he askedH7592 the menH582 of that placeH4725, sayingH559, Where is the harlotH6948, that was openlyH5869 by the way sideH1870? And they saidH559, There was no harlotH6948 in thisH2088 place. {openly: or, in Enajim}
And he returnedH7725 to JudahH3063, and saidH559, I cannotH3808 findH4672 her; and also the menH582 of the placeH4725 saidH559, that there was no harlotH6948 in this place.
And JudahH3063 saidH559, Let her takeH3947 it to her, lest we be shamedH937: behold, I sentH7971 this kidH1423, and thou hast not foundH4672 her. {be shamed: Heb. become a contempt}
And it came to pass about threeH7969 monthsH2320 after, that it was toldH5046 JudahH3063, sayingH559, TamarH8559 thy daughter in lawH3618 hath played the harlotH2181; and also, behold, she is with childH2030 by whoredomH2183. And JudahH3063 saidH559, Bring her forthH3318, and let her be burntH8313.
When she was brought forthH3318, she sentH7971 to her father in lawH2524, sayingH559, By the manH376, whose these are, am I with childH2030: and she saidH559, DiscernH5234, I pray thee, whose are these, the signetH2858, and braceletsH6616, and staffH4294.
And JudahH3063 acknowledgedH5234 them, and saidH559, She hath been more righteousH6663 than I; because that I gaveH5414 her not to ShelahH7956 my sonH1121. And he knew herH3045 againH3254 no more.
And it came to pass in the timeH6256 of her travailH3205, that, behold, twinsH8380 were in her wombH990.
And it came to pass, when she travailedH3205, that the one put outH5414 his handH3027: and the midwifeH3205 tookH3947 and boundH7194 upon his handH3027 a scarlet threadH8144, sayingH559, This came outH3318 firstH7223.
And it came to pass, as he drew backH7725 his handH3027, that, behold, his brotherH251 came outH3318: and she saidH559, How hast thou broken forthH6555? this breachH6556 be upon thee: therefore his nameH8034 was calledH7121 PharezH6557. {How hast…: or, Wherefore hast thou made this breach against thee?} {Pharez: that is A breach}
And afterwardH310 came outH3318 his brotherH251, that had the scarlet threadH8144 upon his handH3027: and his nameH8034 was calledH7121 ZarahH2226.

Thou shalt not uncoverH1540 the nakednessH6172 of thy brother'sH251 wifeH802: it is thy brother'sH251 nakednessH6172.
And every daughterH1323, that possessethH3423 an inheritanceH5159 in any tribeH4294 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, shall be wifeH802 unto oneH259 of the familyH4940 of the tribeH4294 of her fatherH1, that the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 may enjoyH3423 every manH376 the inheritanceH5159 of his fathersH1.
Neither shall the inheritanceH5159 removeH5437 from one tribeH4294 to anotherH312 tribeH4294; but every oneH376 of the tribesH4294 of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 shall keepH1692 himself to his own inheritanceH5159.
If brethrenH251 dwellH3427 togetherH3162, and oneH259 of them dieH4191, and have no childH1121, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191 shall not marry withoutH2351 unto a strangerH376+H2114: her husband's brotherH2993 shall go inH935 unto her, and takeH3947 her to him to wifeH802, and perform the duty of an husband's brotherH2992 unto her. {her husband's…: or, her next kinsman}
And it shall be, that the firstbornH1060 which she bearethH3205 shall succeedH6965 in the nameH8034 of his brotherH251 which is deadH4191, that his nameH8034 be not put outH4229 of IsraelH3478.
And if the manH376 likeH2654 not to takeH3947 his brother's wifeH2994, then let his brother's wifeH2994 go upH5927 to the gateH8179 unto the eldersH2205, and sayH559, My husband's brotherH2993 refusethH3985 to raise upH6965 unto his brotherH251 a nameH8034 in IsraelH3478, he willH14 not perform the duty of my husband's brotherH2992. {brother's: or, next kinsman's}
Then the eldersH2205 of his cityH5892 shall callH7121 him, and speakH1696 unto him: and if he standH5975 to it, and sayH559, I likeH2654 not to takeH3947 her;
Then shall his brother's wifeH2994 comeH5066 unto him in the presenceH5869 of the eldersH2205, and looseH2502 his shoeH5275 from off his footH7272, and spitH3417 in his faceH6440, and shall answerH6030 and sayH559, So shall it be doneH6213 unto that manH376 that will not build upH1129 his brother'sH251 houseH1004.
And his nameH8034 shall be calledH7121 in IsraelH3478, The houseH1004 of him that hath his shoeH5275 loosedH2502.
And NaomiH5281 saidH559, Turn againH7725, my daughtersH1323: why will ye goH3212 with me? are there yet any more sonsH1121 in my wombH4578, that they may be your husbandsH582?
Then saidH559 BoazH1162, What dayH3117 thou buyestH7069 the fieldH7704 of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281, thou must buyH7069 it also of RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of the deadH4191, to raise upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159.
And the kinsmanH1350 saidH559, I cannotH3201 redeemH1350 it for myself, lest I marH7843 mine own inheritanceH5159: redeemH1350 thou my rightH1353 to thyself; for I cannotH3201 redeemH1350 it.
Now this was the manner in former timeH6440 in IsraelH3478 concerning redeemingH1353 and concerning changingH8545, for to confirmH6965 all thingsH1697; a manH376 plucked offH8025 his shoeH5275, and gaveH5414 it to his neighbourH7453: and this was a testimonyH8584 in IsraelH3478.
Therefore the kinsmanH1350 saidH559 unto BoazH1162, BuyH7069 it for thee. So he drew offH8025 his shoeH5275.
And BoazH1162 saidH559 unto the eldersH2205, and unto all the peopleH5971, Ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117, that I have boughtH7069 all that was Elimelech'sH458, and all that was Chilion'sH3630 and Mahlon'sH4248, of the handH3027 of NaomiH5281.
Moreover RuthH7327 the MoabitessH4125, the wifeH802 of MahlonH4248, have I purchasedH7069 to be my wifeH802, to raise upH6965 the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 upon his inheritanceH5159, that the nameH8034 of the deadH4191 be not cut offH3772 from amongH5973 his brethrenH251, and from the gateH8179 of his placeH4725: ye are witnessesH5707 this dayH3117.
And all the peopleH5971 that were in the gateH8179, and the eldersH2205, saidH559, We are witnessesH5707. The LORDH3068 makeH5414 the womanH802 that is comeH935 into thine houseH1004 like RachelH7354 and like LeahH3812, which twoH8147 did buildH1129 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: and doH6213 thou worthilyH2428 in EphratahH672, and be famousH7121+H8034 in BethlehemH1035: {do thou…: or, get thee riches, or, power} {be famous: Heb. proclaim thy name}
