WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 A u to vreme dogodi se, te Juda otide od braće svoje i uvrati se kod nekog Odolamejca, kome ime beše Iras.
1 At that time, Judah went down from his brothers, and visited a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 I onde vide Juda kćer nekog Hananejca, kome ime beše Sava, i uze je i leže s njom;
2 There, Judah saw the daughter of a certain Canaanite man named Shua. He took her, and went in to her.
3 i ona zatrudne i rodi sina, kome nadede ime Ir.
3 She conceived, and bore a son; and he named him Er.
4 I opet zatrudnevši rodi sina, kome nadede ime Avnan.
4 She conceived again, and bore a son; and she named him Onan.
5 I opet rodi sina, i nadede mu ime Silom; a Juda beše u Hasvi kad ona toga rodi.
5 She yet again bore a son, and named him Shelah. He was at Chezib when she bore him.
6 I Juda oženi prvenca svog Ira devojkom po imenu Tamara.
6 Judah took a wife for Er, his firstborn, and her name was Tamar.
7 Ali Ir prvenac Judin beše nevaljao pred Gospodom, i ubi ga Gospod.
7 Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in Yahweh’s sight. So Yahweh killed him.
8 A Juda reče Avnanu: Uđi k ženi brata svog i oženi se njom na ime bratovo, da podigneš seme bratu svom.
8 Judah said to Onan, “Go in to your brother’s wife, and perform the duty of a husband’s brother to her, and raise up offspring for your brother.”
9 A Avnan, znajući da neće biti njegov porod, kad leže sa ženom brata svog prosipaše na zemlju, da ne rodi dece bratu svom.
9 Onan knew that the offspring wouldn’t be his; and when he went in to his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground, lest he should give offspring to his brother.
10 Ali Gospodu ne bi milo što činjaše, te ubi i njega.
10 The thing which he did was evil in Yahweh’s sight, and he killed him also.
11 I Juda reče Tamari snasi svojoj: Ostani udovicom u kući oca svog dokle odraste Silom sin moj. Jer govoraše: Da ne umre i on kao braća mu. I otide Tamara, i živeše u kući oca svog.
11 Then Judah said to Tamar, his daughter-in-law, “Remain a widow in your father’s house, until Shelah, my son, is grown up;” for he said, “Lest he also die, like his brothers.” Tamar went and lived in her father’s house.
12 A kad prođe mnogo vremena, umre kći Savina, žena Judina. I kad se Juda uteši, pođe u Tamnu k ljudima što mu strižahu ovce, sam s Irasom prijateljem svojim Odolamejcem.
12 After many days, Shua’s daughter, the wife of Judah, died. Judah was comforted, and went up to his sheep shearers to Timnah, he and his friend Hirah, the Adullamite.
13 I javiše Tamari govoreći: Eto svekar tvoj ide u Tamnu da striže ovce svoje.
13 Tamar was told, “Behold, your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep.”
14 A ona skide sa sebe udovičko ruho svoje, i uze pokrivalo i pokri lice, i sede na raskršće na putu koji ide u Tamnu. Jer vide da je Silom odrastao, a nju još ne udaše za nj.
14 She took off the garments of her widowhood, and covered herself with her veil, and wrapped herself, and sat in the gate of Enaim, which is on the way to Timnah; for she saw that Shelah was grown up, and she wasn’t given to him as a wife.
15 A Juda kada vide, pomisli da je kurva, jer beše pokrila lice svoje.
15 When Judah saw her, he thought that she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face.
16 Pa svrnu s puta k njoj i reče joj: Pusti da legnem s tobom. Jer nije poznao da mu je snaha. A ona reče: Šta ćeš mi dati da legneš sa mnom?
16 He turned to her by the way, and said, “Please come, let me come in to you,” for he didn’t know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?”
17 A on reče: Poslaću ti jare iz stada. A ona reče: Ali da mi daš zalog dokle ga ne pošalješ.
17 He said, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” She said, “Will you give me a pledge, until you send it?”
18 A on reče: Kakav zalog da ti dam? A ona reče: Eto, prsten i rubac, i štap što ti je u ruci. I on joj dade, te leže s njom, i ona zatrudne od njega.
18 He said, “What pledge will I give you?” She said, “Your signet and your cord, and your staff that is in your hand.” He gave them to her, and came in to her, and she conceived by him.
19 Posle ustavši Tamara otide i skide pokrivalo sa sebe i obuče udovičko ruho.
19 She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
20 A Juda posla jare po prijatelju svom Odolamejcu da mu donese natrag od žene zalog. Ali je on ne nađe.
20 Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman’s hand, but he didn’t find her.
21 Pa pitaše ljude po onom mestu gde je ona bila govoreći: Gde je ona kurva što je bila na raskršću na ovom putu? A oni rekoše: Nije ovde bilo kurve.
21 Then he asked the men of her place, saying, “Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?” They said, “There has been no prostitute here.”
22 I vrati se k Judi i reče: Ne nađoh je, nego još rekoše meštani: Nije ovde bilo kurve.
22 He returned to Judah, and said, “I haven’t found her; and also the men of the place said, ‘There has been no prostitute here.’”
23 A Juda reče: Neka joj, da se ne sramotimo; ja sam slao jare, ali je ti ne nađe.
23 Judah said, “Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you haven’t found her.”
24 A kad prođe do tri meseca dana, javiše Judi govoreći: Tamara snaha tvoja učini preljubu, i evo zatrudne od preljube. A Juda reče: Izvedite je da se spali.
24 About three months later, Judah was told, “Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute. Moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution.” Judah said, “Bring her out, and let her be burned.”
25 A kad je povedoše, posla k svekru svom i poruči: S čovekom čije je ovo zatrudnela sam. I reče: Traži čiji je ovaj prsten i rubac i štap.
25 When she was brought out, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, “I am with child by the man who owns these.” She also said, “Please discern whose these are—the signet, and the cords, and the staff.”
26 A Juda pozna i reče: Pravija je od mene, jer je ne dadoh sinu svom Silomu. I više ne leže s njom.
26 Judah acknowledged them, and said, “She is more righteous than I, because I didn’t give her to Shelah, my son.” He knew her again no more.
27 A kad dođe vreme da rodi, a to blizanci u utrobi njenoj.
27 In the time of her travail, behold, twins were in her womb.
28 I kad se porađaše, jedno dete pomoli ruku, a babica uze i veza mu crven konac oko ruke govoreći: Ovaj je prvi.
28 When she travailed, one put out a hand, and the midwife took and tied a scarlet thread on his hand, saying, “This came out first.”
29 Ali on uvuče ruku, i gle izađe brat njegov, a ona reče: Kako prodre? Prodiranje neka ti bude. I nadeše mu ime Fares.
29 As he drew back his hand, behold, his brother came out, and she said, “Why have you made a breach for yourself?” Therefore his name was called Perez.
30 A posle izađe brat mu, kome oko ruke beše crveni konac, i nadeše mu ime Zara.
30 Afterward his brother came out, who had the scarlet thread on his hand, and his name was called Zerah.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

  1. Quotes verse 38:28 Irenaeus of Lyons, Against Heresies (Book IV, Chapters XXV–XXVI)

    This fact is indeed set forth by many other [occurrences], but typically by [the history of] Thamar, Judah's daughter-in-law. For when she had conceived twins, one of them put forth his hand first; and as the midwife supposed that he was the first-born, she bound a scarlet token on his hand.
