Genesis 38:15-17

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, because she had covered her face with a veil. ¹⁶ So Judah went to her [^Lon the road side/way] and said, “Let me ·have sexual relations with [^Lcome to] you.” He did not know that she was Tamar, his daughter-in-law.

She asked, “What will you ·give [pay] me if I let you ·have sexual relations with [^Lcome to] 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 [a pledge] until you send the goat.”
