    13Tamar was told, Look, your father-in-law is going up to Timnath to shear his sheep.

    14So she took off her widow’s garments, covered herself with a veil, wrapped herself, and sat by the roadside in an open place, which is on the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him as a wife.

    15When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, because she had covered her face.

    16He turned to her by the roadside and said, Let me come in to you; for he did not know she was his daughter-in-law. She said, What will you give me, that you may come in to me?

    17He said, I will send you a young goat from the flock. She said, Will you give me a pledge, till you send it?

    18He said, What pledge shall I give you? She replied, Your signet, your bracelets, and your staff that is in your hand. So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him.

    19Then she arose and went away, and taking off her veil, she put on her widow’s garments again.

    20Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman’s hand, but he could not find her.

    21He asked the men of the place, Where is the prostitute who was by the roadside? They said, There has been no prostitute here.

    25As she was being brought out, she sent a message to her father-in-law, saying, By the man to whom these belong, I am pregnant. She also said, Discern, please, whose these are—the signet, the bracelets, and the staff.

    26Judah acknowledged them and said, She has been more righteous than I, because I did not give her to Shelah my son. And he never knew her again.
