Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers,

“ Judah, your brothers shall praise you; your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies; your father’s sons shall bow down before you.Judah is a lion’s cub; from the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down; he crouched as a lion and as a lioness; who dares rouse him?The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until tribute comes to him; and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.Binding his foal to the vine and his donkey’s colt to the choice vine, he has washed his garments in wine and his vesture in the blood of grapes.His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.

And this he said of Judah:“ Hear, O Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him in to his people. With your hands contend for him, and be a help against his adversaries.”

Then Judah went up to him and said,“ Oh, my lord, please let your servant speak a word in my lord’s ears, and let not your anger burn against your servant, for you are like Pharaoh himself.My lord asked his servants, saying,‘ Have you a father, or a brother?’And we said to my lord,‘ We have a father, an old man, and a young brother, the child of his old age. His brother is dead, and he alone is left of his mother’s children, and his father loves him.’Then you said to your servants,‘ Bring him down to me, that I may set my eyes on him.’We said to my lord,‘ The boy cannot leave his father, for if he should leave his father, his father would die.’Then you said to your servants,‘ Unless your youngest brother comes down with you, you shall not see my face again.’“ When we went back to your servant my father, we told him the words of my lord.And when our father said,‘ Go again, buy us a little food,’we said,‘ We cannot go down. If our youngest brother goes with us, then we will go down. For we cannot see the man’s face unless our youngest brother is with us.’Then your servant my father said to us,‘ You know that my wife bore me two sons.One left me, and I said,“ Surely he has been torn to pieces,” and I have never seen him since.If you take this one also from me, and harm happens to him, you will bring down my gray hairs in evil to Sheol.’“ Now therefore, as soon as I come to your servant my father, and the boy is not with us, then, as his life is bound up in the boy’s life,as soon as he sees that the boy is not with us, he will die, and your servants will bring down the gray hairs of your servant our father with sorrow to Sheol.For your servant became a pledge of safety for the boy to my father, saying,‘ If I do not bring him back to you, then I shall bear the blame before my father all my life.’Now therefore, please let your servant remain instead of the boy as a servant to my lord, and let the boy go back with his brothers.For how can I go back to my father if the boy is not with me? I fear to see the evil that would find my father.”

The sons of Judah: Er, Onan, Shelah, Perez, and Zerah( but Er and Onan died in the land of Canaan); and the sons of Perez were Hezron and Hamul.

And Judah said to Israel his father,“ Send the boy with me, and we will arise and go, that we may live and not die, both we and you and also our little ones.I will be a pledge of his safety. From my hand you shall require him. If I do not bring him back to you and set him before you, then let me bear the blame forever.

though Judah became strong among his brothers and a chief came from him, yet the birthright belonged to Joseph),

The sons of Zilpah, Leah’s servant: Gad and Asher. These were the sons of Jacob who were born to him in Paddan-aram.

It happened at that time that Judah went down from his brothers and turned aside to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.There Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. He took her and went in to her,and she conceived and bore a son, and he called his name Er.She conceived again and bore a son, and she called his name Onan.Yet again she bore a son, and she called his name Shelah. Judah was in Chezib when she bore him.And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.But Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and the Lord put him to death.Then Judah said to Onan,“ Go in to your brother’s wife and perform the duty of a brother-in-law to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”But Onan knew that the offspring would not be his. So whenever he went in to his brother’s wife he would waste the semen on the ground, so as not to give offspring to his brother.And what he did was wicked in the sight of the Lord, and he put him to death also.Then Judah said to Tamar his daughter-in-law,“ Remain a widow in your father’s house, till Shelah my son grows up”— for he feared that he would die, like his brothers. So Tamar went and remained in her father’s house.In the course of time the wife of Judah, Shua’s daughter, died. When Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.And when Tamar was told,“ Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,”she took off her widow’s garments and covered herself with a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to Enaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she had not been given to him in marriage.When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.He turned to her at the roadside and said,“ Come, let me come in to you,” for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said,“ What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”He answered,“ I will send you a young goat from the flock.” And she said,“ If you give me a pledge, until you send it—”He said,“ What pledge shall I give you?” She replied,“ Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him.Then she arose and went away, and taking off her veil she put on the garments of her widowhood.When Judah sent the young goat by his friend the Adullamite to take back the pledge from the woman’s hand, he did not find her.And he asked the men of the place,“ Where is the cult prostitute who was at Enaim at the roadside?” And they said,“ No cult prostitute has been here.”So he returned to Judah and said,“ I have not found her. Also, the men of the place said,‘ No cult prostitute has been here.’”And Judah replied,“ Let her keep the things as her own, or we shall be laughed at. You see, I sent this young goat, and you did not find her.”About three months later Judah was told,“ Tamar your daughter-in-law has been immoral. Moreover, she is pregnant by immorality.” And Judah said,“ Bring her out, and let her be burned.”As she was being brought out, she sent word to her father-in-law,“ By the man to whom these belong, I am pregnant.” And she said,“ Please identify whose these are, the signet and the cord and the staff.”Then Judah identified them and said,“ She is more righteous than I, since I did not give her to my son Shelah.” And he did not know her again.When the time of her labor came, there were twins in her womb.And when she was in labor, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying,“ This one came out first.”But as he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out. And she said,“ What a breach you have made for yourself!” Therefore his name was called Perez.Afterward his brother came out with the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.
