Genesis 38:14 in Context — Genesis 38
12 E passaram muitos dias, e morreu a filha de Sua, mulher de Judá; e Judá se consolou, e subia aos tosquiadores de suas ovelhas a Timna, ele e seu amigo Hira o adulamita.
13 E foi dado aviso a Tamar, dizendo: Eis que teu sogro sobe a Timna a tosquiar suas ovelhas.
14 Então tirou ela de sobre si as roupas de sua viuvez, e cobriu-se com um véu, e envolveu-se, e se pôs à porta das águas que estão junto ao caminho de Timna; porque via que havia crescido Selá, e ela não era dada a ele por mulher.
15 E viu-a Judá, e teve-a por prostituta, porque havia ela coberto seu rosto.
16 E desviou-se do caminho até ela, e disse-lhe: Eia, pois, agora deitarei contigo; porque não sabia que era sua nora; e ela disse: Que me darás, se deitares comigo?
