Genesis 38
1 At that time, Judah left his older and younger brothers and went down from the hilly area and stayed with a man whose name was Hiram, who lived in Adullam [town].
Ug nahitabo niadtong panahona, nga si Juda milugsong gikan sa iyang mga igsoon, ug miadto sa usa ka lalake nga Ahullamahanon nga ginahinganlan si Hira.
2 There he (met/became acquainted with) a woman who was the daughter of a man from Canaan named Shua. He married her. He had sex [EUP] with her,
Ug hingkit-an ni Juda didto ang anak nga babaye sa usa ka tawo nga Canaanhon, nga ginganlan si Sua, ug siya gikuha niya, ug siya miduol kaniya.
3 and she became pregnant and later gave birth to a son, whom he named Er.
Ug siya nanamkon, ug nag-anak siya ug usa ka anak nga lalake, ug iyang gihinganlan ang iyang ngalan si Er.
4 Later she became pregnant again and gave birth to another son whom she named Onan.
Ug nanamkon siya sa pag-usab, ug nag-anak siya ug usa ka anak nga lalake, ug iyang gihinganlan ang ngalan niya si Onan.
5 Many years later, when Judah and his family went to live in Kezib [town], Judah’s wife gave birth to another son, whom she named Shelah.
Ug miusab sa pagpanganak siya ug usa ka anak nga lalake, ug gihinganlan ang iyang ngalan si Sela. Ug didto si Juda si Chesib sa iyang pag-anak.
6 When Judah’s oldest son Er [grew up], Judah got a wife for him, a woman named Tamar.
Ug si Juda nagpili ug usa ka asawa alang sa iyang panganay nga si Er, nga ginganlan si Tamar.
7 But Er did something that Yahweh considered to be very wicked, so Yahweh caused him to die.
Ug si Er, ang panganay ni Juda, maoy tawong dautan sa mga mata ni Jehova, ug gikuhaan siya ni Jehova sa kinabuhi.
8 Then Judah said to Onan, “Your older brother died without having any sons. So marry his widow and have sex [EUP] with her. That is what our customs require that you should do.”
Unya si Juda miingon kang Onan: Sumulod ka sa asawa sa imong igsoon, ug pagminyo kaniya, ug magbangon ka ug kaliwatan sa imong igsoon.
9 But Onan knew if he did that, any children who would be born would not be considered to be his. So every time he had sex [EUP] with his brother’s widow, he spilled his semen on the ground, so that she would not get pregnant and produce children for his older brother.
Ug nahibalo si Onan nga ang kaliwat dili maiya; ug nahitabo nga sa pagduol niya sa asawa sa iyang igsoon iyang giula kini sa yuta, aron sa dili paghatag ug kaliwat sa iyang igsoon nga lalake.
10 Yahweh considered that what he did was wicked, so he caused him to die also.
Ug ang iyang gibuhat nakapasuko sa mga mata ni Jehova, ug ingon man usab gikuhaan siya sa kinabuhi.
11 Then Judah said to his daughter-in-law Tamar, “Return to your father’s house, but do not marry anyone else. When my youngest son Shelah grows up, [he can marry you].” But Judah [really did not want Shelah to marry her, because] he was afraid that then Shelah would die too, just as his older brothers had died. So Tamar [obeyed Judah and] went back to live in her father’s house again.
Ug si Juda miingon kang Tamar nga iyang umagad nga babaye: Magpuyo ka nga balo sa balay sa imong amahan hangtud nga madaku si Sela nga akong anak nga lalake kay miingon siya: Nga tingali siya usab mamatay nga ingon sa iyang mga igsoon. Ug si Tamar milakaw ug mingpuyo sa balay sa iyang amahan.
12 Several years later, Judah’s wife, who was the daughter of Shua, died. When the time of mourning for her was finished, Judah decided to go up to Timnah, to the place where his (men were shearing his sheep/sheep were being sheared) His friend Hiram, from Adullam, went with him.
Ug sa miagi ang daghang mga adlaw, namatay ang anak nga babaye ni Sua, nga asawa ni Juda; ug si Juda gilipay, ug mitungas sa mga manggugunting sa balahibo sa iyang mga carnero sa Timnat, siya ug ang iyang abyan nga si Hira ang Adullamahanon.
13 Someone said to Tamar, “Your father-in-law is going to [the fields near the city of] Timnah to help the men who are shearing his sheep.”
Ug gipahibalo si Tamar nga nagaingon: Ang imong ugangan mitungas sa Timnat sa paggunting sa balhibo sa iyang mga carnero.
14 [She realized that now Shelah was grown up, but Judah had not given her to him to be his wife. So] she took off her widow’s clothes, and covered her head with a veil, so that people would not (recognize her/know who she was). Then she sat down at the entrance to Enaim [town], which is on the road to Timnah.
Unya iyang gikuha ang mga bisti sa iyang pagkabalo, ug nagtabon siya ug usa ka pandong, ug iyang giputos ang iyang nawong, ug milingkod siya sa pultahan sa Enaim nga diha sa luyo sa dalan sa Timnat; kay nakita niya nga nagdaku na si Sela, ug siya walay ikahatag nga maasawa niya.
15 When Judah came along and saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, because she had covered her head [like prostitutes often did] (OR, [and sat where prostitutes often sat)].
Sa hingkit-an siya ni Juda, naghunahuna siya nga kini usa ka bigaon, kay gitabonan niya ang iyang nawong.
16 Judah did not realize that she was his daughter-in-law. So he said to her, “Hey, let me have sex [EUP] with you!” She replied, “What will you give me for allowing you to have sex [EUP] with me?”
Ug misimang siya gikan sa dalan, ug miingon siya kaniya: Umari ka gipakilooy ko kanimo nga patiponon ako nimo sa paghigda. Kay wala siya mahibalo nga siya mao ang iyang umagad nga babaye. Ug siya miingon, unsa man ang ihatag mo kanako, aron ikaw makaduol kanako?
17 He replied, “I will send you a young goat from my flock of goats.” She asked, “Will you give me something now for me to keep until you send the goat?”
Ug siya mitubag. Padad-an ko ikaw ug usa ka nati nga kanding nga gikan sa panon. Ug siya miingon: Mohatag ka ba kanako ug saad hangtud nga ikaw makapadala niana?
18 He replied, “What do you want me to give to you?” She replied, “Give me the ring that has your name on it that is tied by a cord around your neck, and give me the walking stick that you are holding in your hand.” So he gave them to her. Then he had sex [EUP] with her, and she became pregnant.
Unya miingon siya: Unsa ba nga saara ang igahatag ko kanimo? Ug siya mitubag: Ang imong singsing, ug ang imong baklaw, ug ang imong sungkod nga anaa sa imong kamot. Ug kini gihatag niya, ug siya miduol kaniya, ug siya nanamkon gikan kaniya.
19 After she left, she took off the veil and put her widow’s clothes on again.
Ug mitindog siya ug milakaw: ug iyang gikuha ang pandong sa ibabaw niya, ug gisul-ob niya ang mga bisti sa iyang pagkabalo.
20 Judah gave a young goat to his friend from Adullam, for him to take back to the woman, as he had promised. But his friend could not find the woman.
Ug gipadala ni Juda ang nati nga kanding gikan sa mga kanding nga baye, sa kamot sa iyang abyan nga Adullamahanon, aron sa pagkuha sa saad gikan sa kamot sa babaye: apan ang babaye wala hikaplagi niya.
21 So he asked the men who lived there, “Where is the prostitute who was sitting by the road at Enaim?” They replied, “There has never been a prostitute here!”
Ug nangutana siya sa mga tawo niadtong dapita, nga nagaingon: Hain ba ang bigaon nga nagpuyo sa daplin sa Enaim? Ug sila miingon kaniya: Wala makapuyo dinhi ang bigaon.
22 So he went back to Judah and said, “I did not find her. [Furthermore], the men who live in that town said, ‘There has never been a prostitute here.’”
Unya siya mibalik kang Juda, ug miingon siya: Wala ko hikaplagi siya; ug miingon usab ang mga tawo niadtong dapita: Nga didto wala makapuyo ang bigaon.
23 Judah said, “She can keep the things that I gave to her. If we continued to search for her, people would ridicule us. I tried to send this young goat to her, but you could not find her to give it to her.”
Ug si Juda miingon: Ipadawat kaniya kana nga kaniya, aron kita dili mahimong talamayon: tan-awa, akong gipadala kining kanding nga nati, ug wala mo hikaplagi siya.
24 About three months later, someone told Judah, “Your daughter-in-law Tamar has become a prostitute and now she is pregnant!” Judah said, “Drag her outside of the city and kill her by burning her!”
Ug nahitabo nga sa katapusan sa ikatolo ka bulan gipahibalo si Juda, nga nagaingon: Si Tamar nga imong umagad nga babaye nakighilawas ug labut pa, siya nanamkon tungod sa pagpakighilawas. Ug si Juda miingon: Kuhaa ninyo siya, ug padaubi siya.
25 But as they were taking her outside of the city, she gave the ring and walking stick to someone, and told him to take them to Judah, and say to him, “The man who owns these things is the one who caused me to become pregnant.” She also said to tell him, “Look at this ring, and the cord that is attached to it, and this walking stick. Whose are they?”
Sa gipaatubang na siya nagsugo siya sa pag-ingon sa iyang ugangan nga lalake. Sa lalake nga tag-iya niining mga butanga nanamkon ako: ug miingon pa siya: Ilha, nagapakilooy ako, kang kinsa kining mga butanga, ang singsing, ug ang baklaw, ug ang sungkod.
26 When the man did that, Judah recognized the ring and the stick. He said, “She is more righteous than I am. I did not tell my son Shelah to marry her, as I promised that I would.” And Judah did not have sex [EUP] with her again.
Ug si Juda miila kanila, ug miingon. Siya labing matarung kay kanako, kay siya wala ko ihatag kang Sela nga akong anak nga lalake. Ug wala na gayud siya moduol kaniya sa pag-usab.
27 When it was time for her to give birth, [she was surprised that] there were twin boys in her womb.
Ug nahitabo nga sa panahon sa iyang pag-anak, tan-awa, dihay duruha sa iyang tiyan.
28 As she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand. So the midwife fastened a scarlet thread around his wrist, saying, “This one came out first.”
Ug nahatabo, sa pag-anak niya, nga migula ang kamot sa usa, ug gikuptan kini sa mananabang ug gihiktan ang iyang kamot sa usa ka lugas nga hilo nga mapula, nga nagaingon: Kini ang una nga migula.
29 But he pulled his hand back inside the womb, and his brother came out first. So she said, “So this is how you break your way out first!” So she named him Perez, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘breaking out].’
Apan nahitabo nga sa gibalik niya pagsulod ang iyang kamot, tan-awa, ang iyang igsoon nga lalake migula: ug siya miingon; Ngano nga gibuhat mo ang pagbuak alang sa imong kaugalingon? Ug iyang gihinganlan ang iyang ngalan si Phares.
30 Then his younger brother, the one who had the scarlet thread around his wrist, came out. And he was named Zerah, [which sounds like the Hebrew word that means ‘redness of dawn].’
Ug sa ulahi migula ang iyang igsoon nga lalake, ang may lugas sa hilo nga mapula sa iyang kamot, ug iyang gihinganlan ang iyang ngalan si Zara.
