Genesis 38:12-14

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

¹² After a long time^[a] Judah’s wife, the daughter of Shua, died. When Judah had finished mourning, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite went up to Timnah^(A) to his sheep-shearers. ¹³ Tamar was told, ‘Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.’ ¹⁴ So she took off her widow’s clothes, veiled her face,^(B) covered herself, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah. For she saw that, though Shelah had grown up, she had not been given to him as a wife.
