    13It was told Tamar, saying, "Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep."

    14She took off of her the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is by the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she wasn't given to him as a wife.

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

    22He returned to Judah, and said, "I haven't found her; and also the men of the place said, 'There has been no prostitute here.'"

    23Judah said, "Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this kid, and you haven't found her."

    24It happened about three months later, that it was told Judah, saying, "Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute; and moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution." Judah said, "Bring her forth, and let her be burnt."
