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?

17 Ele respondeu: Eu te enviarei do gado um cabrito das cabras. E ela disse: Terás de me dar penhor até que o envies.

18 Então ele disse: Que penhor te darei? Ela respondeu: Teu anel, e teu manto, e teu bordão que tens em tua mão. E ele lhe deu, e se deitou com ela, a qual concebeu dele.
