Genesis 38:22-24

Modern English Version

²² So he returned to Judah and said, “I cannot find her. Also, the men of the place said there was no cult prostitute in this place.”

²³ Judah replied, “Let her keep them for herself, or we shall be laughed at. I sent this young goat, and you did not find her.”

²⁴ After about three months, it was told Judah, “Tamar your daughter-in-law has turned to prostitution, and what is more, as a result of prostitution she is pregnant.”

Then Judah said, “Bring her forth, and let her be burned!”
