1. At that time Juda went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Odollamite, named Hiras.
2. And he saw there the daughter of a man of Chanaan, called Sue: and taking her to wife, he went in unto her.
3. And she conceived, and bore a son, and called his name Her.
4. And conceiving again, she bore a son, and called him Onan.
5. She bore also a third: whom she called Sela, after whose birth, she ceased to bear any more.
6. And Juda took a wife for Her his firstborn, whose name was Thamar.
7. And Her, the firstborn of Juda, was wicked in the sight of the Lord: and was slain by him.
8. Juda, therefore add to Onan his son: Go in to thy brother's wife and marry her, that thou mayst raise seed to thy brother.
