Genesis 38

DOUAI-RHEIMS	SMITH VAN DYKE
1 At that time Juda went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras.	1 وحدث في ذلك الزمان ان يهوذا نزل من عند اخوته ومال الى رجل عدلاميّ اسمه حيرة.
2 And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan, called Sue: and taking her to wife, he went in unto her.	2 ونظر يهوذا هناك ابنة رجل كنعاني اسمه شوع. فاخذها ودخل عليها.
3 And she conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Her.	3 فحبلت وولدت ابنا ودعا اسمه عيرا.
4 And conceiving again, she bore a son, and called him Onan.	4 ثم حبلت ايضا وولدت ابنا ودعت اسمه أونان.
5 She bore also a third: whom she called Sela. after whose birth, she ceased to bear any more.	5 ثم عادت فولدت ايضا ابنا ودعت اسمه شيلة. وكان في كزيب حين ولدته
6 And Juda took a wife for Her his firstborn, whose name was Thamar.	6 واخذ يهوذا زوجة لعير بكره اسمها ثامار.
7 And Her, the firstborn of Juda, was wicked in the sight of the Lord: and was slain by him.	7 وكان عير بكر يهوذا شريرا في عيني الرب. فأماته الرب.
8 Juda, therefore add to Onan his son: Go in to thy brother's wife and marry her, that thou mayst raise seed to thy brother.	8 فقال يهوذا لأونان ادخل على امرأة اخيك وتزوج بها واقم نسلا لاخيك.
9 He knowing that the children should not be his, when he went in to his brother's wife, spilled his seed upon the ground, lest children should be born in his brother's name.	9 فعلم أونان ان النسل لا يكون له. فكان اذ دخل على امرأة اخيه انه افسد على الارض لكيلا يعطي نسلا لاخيه.
10 And therefore the Lord slew him, because he did a detestable thing.	10 فقبح في عيني الرب ما فعله. فاماته ايضا.
11 Wherefore Juda said to Thamar his daughter in law: Remain a widow in thy father's house, till Sela my son grow up: for he was afraid lest he also might die, as his brethren did. She went her way 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 And after many days were past, the daughter of Sue the wife of Juda died: and when he had taken comfort after his mourning, he went up to Thamnas, to the shearers of his sheep, he and Hiras the Odollamite the shepherd of his flock.	12 ولما طال الزمان ماتت ابنة شوع امرأة يهوذا. ثم تعزّى يهوذا فصعد الى جزاز غنمه الى تمنة هو وحيرة صاحبه العدلامي.
13 And it was told Thamar that her father in law was come up to Thamnas to shear his sheep.	13 فاخبرت ثامار وقيل لها هوذا حموك صاعد الى تمنة ليجزّ غنمه.
14 And she put off the garments of her widowhood, and took a veil: and changing her dress, sat in the cross way, that leadeth to Thamnas: because Sela was grown up, and she had not been married to him.	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.

16 When Juda saw her, he thought she was a harlot: for she had covered her face, lest she should be known.	16 فمال اليها على الطريق وقال هاتي ادخل عليك. لانه لم يعلم انها كنته. فقالت ماذا تعطيني لكي تدخل عليّ.
	17 فقال اني ارسل جدي معزى من الغنم. فقالت هل تعطيني رهنا حتى ترسله.
18 He said: I will send thee a kid out of the flock. And when she said again: I will suffer what thou wilt, if thou give a pledge, till thou send what thou promisest,	18 فقال ما الرهن الذي اعطيك. فقالت خاتمك وعصابتك وعصاك التي في يدك. فاعطاها ودخل عليها. فحبلت منه.
19 Juda said: What wilt thou have for a pledge ? She answered: Thy ring and bracelet, and the staff which thou holdest in thy hand. The woman therefore at one copulation conceived.	19 ثم قامت ومضت وخلعت عنها برقعها ولبست ثياب ترملها
20 And she arose and went her way: and putting off the apparel which she had taken, put on the garments of her widowhood.	20 فارسل يهوذا جدي المعزى بيد صاحبه العدلامي ليأخذ الرهن من يد المرأة. فلم يجدها.
21 And Juda sent a kid by his shepherd, the Odollamite, that he might receive the pledge again, which he had given to the woman: but he, not finding her,	21 فسأل اهل مكانها قائلا اين الزانية التي كانت في عينايم على الطريق. فقالوا لم تكن ههنا زانية.
22 asked the men of that place : Where is the woman that sat in the cross way? And when they all made answer: There was no harlot in this place,	22 فرجع الى يهوذا وقال لم اجدها. واهل المكان ايضا قالوا لم تكن ههنا زانية.
23 He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there.	23 فقال يهوذا لتاخذ لنفسها لئلا نصير اهانة. اني قد ارسلت هذا الجدي وانت لم تجدها
24 Juda said : Let her take it to herself ; surely she cannot charge us with a,lie: I sent the kid which I promised: and thou didst not find her.	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 And behold after three months they told a lie, saying: Thamar, thy daughter in law hath played the harlot, and she appeareth to have a big belly. And Juda said : Bring her out that she may be burnt.	25 اما هي فلما اخرجت ارسلت الى حميها قائلة من الرجل الذي هذه له انا حبلى. وقالت حقّق لمن الخاتم والعصابة والعصا هذه.

27 But when she was led to execution, she sent to her father in law, saying: By the man, to whom these things belong, I am with child. See whose ring, and bracelet, and staff this is.	27 وفي وقت ولادتها اذا في بطنها توأمان.
	28 وكان في ولادتها ان احدهما اخرج يدا فاخذت القابلة وربطت على يده قرمزا قائلة هذا خرج اولا.
29 And when she was ready to be brought to bed, there appeared twins in her womb: and in the very delivery of the infants, one put forth a hand, whereon the midwife tied a scarlet thread, saying:	29 ولكن حين ردّ يده اذ اخوه قد خرج. فقالت لماذا اقتحمت. عليك اقتحام. فدعي اسمه فارص.
30 This shall come forth the first.	30 وبعد ذلك خرج اخوه الذي على يده القرمز. فدعي اسمه زارح
