Genesis 38:24 in Context — Genesis 38
22 Il retourna auprès de Juda, et dit: Je ne l’ai pas trouvée, et même les gens du lieu ont dit: Il n’y a point eu ici de prostituée.
23 Juda dit: Qu’elle garde ce qu’elle a! Ne nous exposons pas au mépris. Voici, j’ai envoyé ce chevreau, et tu ne l’as pas trouvée.
24 Environ trois mois après, on vint dire à Juda: Tamar, ta belle-fille, s’est prostituée, et même la voilà enceinte à la suite de sa prostitution. Et Juda dit: Faites-la sortir, et qu’elle soit brûlée.
25 Comme on l’amenait dehors, elle fit dire à son beau-père: C’est de l’homme à qui ces choses appartiennent que je suis enceinte; reconnais, je te prie, à qui sont ce cachet, ces cordons et ce bâton.
26 Juda les reconnut, et dit: Elle est moins coupable que moi, puisque je ne l’ai pas donnée à Schéla, mon fils. Et il ne la connut plus.
