Genesis 38:15-17

International Children’s Bible

¹⁵ When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute. This was because she had covered her face with a veil. ¹⁶ So Judah went to her and said, “Let me have physical relations with you.” He did not know that she was Tamar, his daughter-in-law.

She asked, “What will you give me if I let you have physical relations with me?”

¹⁷ Judah answered, “I will send you a young goat from my flock.”

She answered, “First give me something to keep as a deposit until you send the goat.”
