Genesis 38:15-17

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

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

¹⁶ He went over to her and said, ‘Come, let me sleep with you,’ for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law.^(A)

She said, ‘What will you give me for sleeping with me? ’

¹⁷ ‘I will send you a young goat from my flock,’ he replied.

But she said, ‘Only if you leave something with me until you send it.’
