Genesis 38:22-24

Common English Bible

²² So he went back to Judah and said, “I couldn’t find her. The locals even said, ‘There’s no holy woman here.’”

²³ Judah said, “Let her keep everything so we aren’t laughed at. I did send this kid goat, but you couldn’t find her.”

²⁴ About three months later, Judah was told, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has become a prostitute and is now pregnant because of it.”

And Judah said, “Bring her out so that she may be burned.”
