Genesis 38

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 It happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.	1 وحدث في ذلك الزمان ان يهوذا نزل من عند اخوته ومال الى رجل عدلاميّ اسمه حيرة.
2 There Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua; he married her and went in to her,	2 ونظر يهوذا هناك ابنة رجل كنعاني اسمه شوع. فاخذها ودخل عليها.
3 and she conceived and bore a son, and he called his name Er.	3 فحبلت وولدت ابنا ودعا اسمه عيرا.
4 Again she conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Onan.	4 ثم حبلت ايضا وولدت ابنا ودعت اسمه أونان.
5 Yet again she bore a son, and she called his name Shelah. She was in Chezib when she bore him.	5 ثم عادت فولدت ايضا ابنا ودعت اسمه شيلة. وكان في كزيب حين ولدته
6 And Judah took a wife for Er his first-born, and her name was Tamar.	6 واخذ يهوذا زوجة لعير بكره اسمها ثامار.
7 But Er, Judah's first-born, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him.	7 وكان عير بكر يهوذا شريرا في عيني الرب. فأماته الرب.
8 Then Judah said to Onan, "Go in to your brother's wife, and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother."	8 فقال يهوذا لأونان ادخل على امرأة اخيك وتزوج بها واقم نسلا لاخيك.
9 But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his; so when he went in to his brother's wife he spilled the semen on the ground, lest he should give offspring to his brother.	9 فعلم أونان ان النسل لا يكون له. فكان اذ دخل على امرأة اخيه انه افسد على الارض لكيلا يعطي نسلا لاخيه.
10 And what he did was displeasing in the sight of the LORD, and he slew him also.	10 فقبح في عيني الرب ما فعله. فاماته ايضا.
11 Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, "Remain a widow in your father's house, till Shelah my son grows up"--for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house.	11 فقال يهوذا لثامار كنته اقعدي ارملة في بيت ابيك حتى يكبر شيلة ابني. لانه قال لعله يموت هو ايضا كاخويه. فمضت ثامار وقعدت في بيت ابيها
12 In course of time the wife of Judah, Shua's daughter, died; and when Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.	12 ولما طال الزمان ماتت ابنة شوع امرأة يهوذا. ثم تعزّى يهوذا فصعد الى جزاز غنمه الى تمنة هو وحيرة صاحبه العدلامي.
13 And when Tamar was told, "Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,"	13 فاخبرت ثامار وقيل لها هوذا حموك صاعد الى تمنة ليجزّ غنمه.
14 she put off her widow's garments, and put on a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him in marriage.	14 فخلعت عنها ثياب ترملها وتغطت ببرقع وتلفّفت وجلست في مدخل عينايم التي على طريق تمنة. لانها رأت ان شيلة قد كبر وهي لم تعط له زوجة.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be a harlot, for she had covered her face.	15 فنظرها يهوذا وحسبها زانية. لانها كانت قد غطت وجهها.
16 He went over to her at the road side, and said, "Come, let me come in to you," for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, "What will you give me, that you may come in to me?"	16 فمال اليها على الطريق وقال هاتي ادخل عليك. لانه لم يعلم انها كنته. فقالت ماذا تعطيني لكي تدخل عليّ.
17 He answered, "I will send you a kid from the flock." And she said, "Will you give me a pledge, till you send it?"	17 فقال اني ارسل جدي معزى من الغنم. فقالت هل تعطيني رهنا حتى ترسله.
18 He said, "What pledge shall I give you?" She replied, "Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand." So he gave them to her, and went in to her, and she conceived by him.	18 فقال ما الرهن الذي اعطيك. فقالت خاتمك وعصابتك وعصاك التي في يدك. فاعطاها ودخل عليها. فحبلت منه.
19 Then she arose and went away, and taking off her veil she put on the garments of her widowhood.	19 ثم قامت ومضت وخلعت عنها برقعها ولبست ثياب ترملها
20 When Judah sent the kid by his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, he could not find her.	20 فارسل يهوذا جدي المعزى بيد صاحبه العدلامي ليأخذ الرهن من يد المرأة. فلم يجدها.
21 And he asked the men of the place, "Where is the harlot who was at Enaim by the wayside?" And they said, "No harlot has been here."	21 فسأل اهل مكانها قائلا اين الزانية التي كانت في عينايم على الطريق. فقالوا لم تكن ههنا زانية.
22 So he returned to Judah, and said, "I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, 'No harlot has been here.'"	22 فرجع الى يهوذا وقال لم اجدها. واهل المكان ايضا قالوا لم تكن ههنا زانية.
23 And Judah replied, "Let her keep the things as her own, lest we be laughed at; you see, I sent this kid, and you could not find her."	23 فقال يهوذا لتاخذ لنفسها لئلا نصير اهانة. اني قد ارسلت هذا الجدي وانت لم تجدها
24 About three months later Judah was told, "Tamar your daughter-in-law has played the harlot; and moreover she is with child by harlotry." And Judah said, "Bring her out, and let her be burned."	24 ولما كان نحو ثلاثة اشهر أخبر يهوذا وقيل له قد زنت ثامار كنتك. وها هي حبلى ايضا من الزنى. فقال يهوذا اخرجوها فتحرق.
25 As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law, "By the man to whom these belong, I am with child." And she said, "Mark, I pray you, whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff."	25 اما هي فلما اخرجت ارسلت الى حميها قائلة من الرجل الذي هذه له انا حبلى. وقالت حقّق لمن الخاتم والعصابة والعصا هذه.
26 Then Judah acknowledged them and said, "She is more righteous than I, inasmuch as I did not give her to my son Shelah." And he did not lie with her again.	26 فتحققها يهوذا وقال هي ابرّ مني لاني لم أعطها لشيلة ابني. فلم يعد يعرفها ايضا
27 When the time of her delivery came, there were twins in her womb.	27 وفي وقت ولادتها اذا في بطنها توأمان.
28 And when she was in labor, one put out a hand; and the midwife took and bound on his hand a scarlet thread, saying, "This came out first."	28 وكان في ولادتها ان احدهما اخرج يدا فاخذت القابلة وربطت على يده قرمزا قائلة هذا خرج اولا.
29 But as he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out; and she said, "What a breach you have made for yourself!" Therefore his name was called Perez.	29 ولكن حين ردّ يده اذ اخوه قد خرج. فقالت لماذا اقتحمت. عليك اقتحام. فدعي اسمه فارص.
30 Afterward his brother came out with the scarlet thread upon his hand; and his name was called Zerah.	30 وبعد ذلك خرج اخوه الذي على يده القرمز. فدعي اسمه زارح
