Genesis 38:10-12

International Standard Version

¹⁰ The Lord considered what Onan was doing to be evil, so he put him to death, too.

¹¹ After this, Judah told his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Go live as a widow in your father’s house until my son Shelah grows up.” But he was really thinking, “…otherwise, Shelah^[a] might die like his brothers.” So Tamar left and lived in her father’s house. ¹² Some years later, Shua’s daughter (that is, Judah’s wife) died. As Judah was grieving, he visited the shearers of his flock in Timnah, accompanied by his Adullamite friend Hirah.
