< Genesisy 38 >

1 Ie henane zay, nienga amo rahalahi’eo t’Iehodà nitsile mb’ ami’ty nte-Adolame atao Hirà.
And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a man of Adullam whose name was Hirah.
2 Le nitendreke anak’ampela nte-Kanàne atao Soae t’Iehodà; le nengae’e vaho nimoak’ ama’e.
And Judah saw there the daughter of a Canaanitish man whose name was Shua; and he took her, and went in to her.
3 Niaren-dre, nisamak’ anadahy; le natao’e Ere ty aña­ra’e.
And she conceived and bore a son; and he called his name Er.
4 Niareñe indrai­ke re nahatoly ana-dahy, le natao’e Onane ty aña­ra’e.
And she again conceived and bore a son, and she called his name Onan.
5 Mbe nahatoly ana-dahy in­draike re le natao’e Selà ty añara’e. Te Kezibe añe t’ie nahatoly aze.
And again she bore a son, and she called his name Shelah; and he was at Chezib when she bore him.
6 Nangala-baly ho a i Ere, tañoloñoloña’ey t’Iehodà; Tamare ty añara’e.
And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 Fe nilo-tserek’ am-pivazohoa’ Iehovà t’i Ere, tañolo­ñoloña’ Iehodày, vaho navetra’ Iehovà.
And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of Jehovah, and Jehovah slew him.
8 Le hoe t’Iehodà amy Onane, Mimoaha amy valin-joke’oy vaho rañaoto, hampitroara’o tariratse ho a i rahalahi’oy.
Then Judah said to Onan, Go in to thy brother's wife, and fulfil to her the brother-in-law's duty, and raise up seed to thy brother.
9 Aa kanao napota’ i Onane te tsy ho aze i tiry zay, le ie nizilik’ amy valin-joke’ey ao, naria’e an-tane ty rompilahia’e, tsy mone hanolo-tariratse aman-drahalahi’e.
But when Onan knew that the seed should not be his own, it came to pass when he went in to his brother's wife, that he spilled [it] on the ground, in order to give no seed to his brother.
10 Tsy ninò’ Iehovà i sata’ey, le navetra’e ka.
And the thing which he did was evil in the sight of Jehovah, and he slew him also.
11 Aa hoe t’Iehodà amy Tamare vinanto’e, Mitoboha ho ramavoiñe añ’anjomban-drae’o ao ampara’ te añoñ’ay t’i Selà, ie niereñere’e ty hoe: Hera ho simba ka re manahake i zoke’ey. Aa le nimb’eo t’i Tamare nimo­neñe añ’anjomban-drae’e añe.
And Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law, Remain a widow in thy father's house, until Shelah my son is grown; for he said, Lest he die also, as his brethren. And Tamar went and remained in her father's house.
12 Ie roñoñe añe, le nihomake ka ty vali’ Iehodà, anak’ ampela’ i Soae; aa ie nanintsiñe t’Iehodà, le nionjoñe mb’e Timnà mb’amo mpañitsi-bolon’ añondri’eo mb’eo rekets’ i Hirà nte-Adolame rañe’ey.
And as the days were multiplied, Judah's wife, the daughter of Shua, died. And Judah was comforted, and he went up to his sheep-shearers, to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.
13 Le nitalilieñ’ amy Tamare ty hoe, Inao, mionjomb’e Timnà ty rae’o hañitsike o añondri’eo.
And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.
14 Aa le nafaha’e o lamban-dramavoi’eo, naho nanakon-daharañe an-damba marerarera, naho nifolonkoñe, vaho nitobok’ an-dalam-bei’ i Enaime, amy lala-mb’e Timnày. Toe niisa’e fa ajalahy t’i Selà f’ie tsy nampañengaeñe aze ho vali’e.
And she put the garments of her widowhood off from her, and covered herself with a veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the entry of Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given to him as wife.
15 Tendrek’ aze t’Iehodà, le natao’e ho tsimirirañe amy t’ie nisaron-doha.
And Judah saw her, and took her for a harlot; because she had covered her face.
16 Nivike mb’ama’e añ’olo’ i lalañe mb’eo re, nanao ty hoe, Mimetea hiolorako, fe ninofi’e t’ie vinanto ampela’e. Hoe re, Ino ty anangea’o ahy, hiharoa’o?
And he turned aside to her by the way, and said, Come, I pray thee, let me go in to thee; for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in to me?
17 Hoe ty natoi’e, Hampisangitrifeko vi’e boak’ amy lia-raikey. Le hoe re, Tsy ho mea’o tsoake hey hao ampara’ te hahitri’o?
And he said, I will send [thee] a kid of the goats from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give [me] a pledge, until thou send it?
18 Hoe re, Tsoake manao akore ty hatoloko azo? Natoi’e ty hoe, O bangem-pitombo’oo naho i tali’oy vaho o kobaiñe am-pità’oo. Aa le natolo’e aze, naho niolots’ ama’e; vaho nampiareñe’e.
And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy lace, and thy staff which is in thy hand. And he gave [it] her, and went in to her; and she conceived by him.
19 Niongake re, nienga; le nafaha’e i marerareray, vaho naombe’e indraike o lamban-dramavoi’eo.
And she arose and went away; and she laid by her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 Nampihitrife’ Iehodà am-pità’ i nte-Ado­lame rañe’ey ty vi’e, hañavake i tsoak’ an-taña’ i rakembaiy, f’ie tsy nirendreke.
And Judah sent the kid of the goats by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand; but he found her not.
21 Aa le nañontanea’e ondaty amy toetseio ty hoe, Aia i tsimiriran-kazomanga te Enaime tañ’ olon-dalañey? le hoe iereo, Tsy aman-tsimiriran-kazomanga ty atoy.
And he asked the men of her place, saying, Where is the prostitute that was at Enaim, by the way-side? And they said, There was no prostitute here.
22 Aa le nibalike mb’ am’ Iehodà añe re nita­lily ty hoe: Tsy nirendreko, vaho nanao ty hoe amako ondaty an-drova ao, Tsy aman-tsimiriran-kazomanga ty atoy.
And he returned to Judah, and said, I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, No prostitute has been here.
23 Hoe ty natoi’ Iehodà, Angao rambese’e ho ama’e i raha rezay tsy mone hiankahafañe; hehe te nampihitrifeko mb’ama’e ty vi’e f’ie tsy nioni’o.
Then Judah said, Let her take [it] for herself, lest we be put to shame. Behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
24 Ie añe ty telo volañe, le natalily am’ Iehodà ty hoe, Nañarapilo­ t’i Tamare vinanto’oy, ie mivesa­tse ty amy hatsimirira’ey. Le hoe t’Iehodà, Akaro re ho forototoeñe.
And it came to pass about three months after, that it was told Judah, saying, Tamar thy daughter-in-law has committed fornication, and behold, she is also with child by fornication. And Judah said, Bring her forth, that she may be burned.
25 Ie nakareñe, le nañitrifa’e saontsy i rafoza’ey, ami’ty hoe, Ty tompo’ o raha rezao ro nampive­satse ahiko. Natovo’e ty hoe, Ehe hotsohotso hey, ia ty tompo’ o bange-pitombokeo, o talio, vaho o kobaiñeo?
When she was brought forth, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, By the man to whom these [belong] am I with child; and she said, Acknowledge, I pray thee, whose are this signet, and this lace, and this staff.
26 Niantofa’ Iehodà i raha rey vaho nanao ty hoe, Mahity te amako re amy te tsy natoloko aze i Selà anakoy. Fe tsy niolora’e ka.
And Judah acknowledged [them], and said, She is more righteous than I, because I have not given her to Shelah my son. And he knew her again no more.
27 Tondroke amy fisamaha’e te inay, hambañe ty an-kovi’e ao.
And it came to pass at the time of her delivery, that behold, twins were in her womb.
28 Aa ie nitsongo, nakare’ ty raike ty taña’e vaho finehe’ i mpanahay fole mena i taña­ñey le nanao ty hoe, Itoy ty niakatse valoha’e.
And it came to pass when she brought forth, that one stretched out [his] hand, and the midwife took it and bound round his hand a scarlet thread, saying, This came out first.
29 Aa ie nanintoñe i taña’ey, le hehe te nipotitse eo ty zai’e, vaho hoe re, Akore ty niboroboñafa’o? ho ama’o o jebañe zao. Aa le natao ty hoe ­Perètse ty añara’e.
And it came to pass as he drew back his hand, that behold, his brother came out; and she said, How hast thou broken forth! on thee be the breach! And they called his name Pherez.
30 Niboake nandimbe aze i rahalahi’ey ninday i fole menay an-taña’ey, le natao Zeràke ty añara’e.
And afterwards came out his brother, round whose hand was the scarlet thread; and they called his name Zerah.
