1 And it came to pass at that time, that Judah went down from his brethren, and turned in to a certain Adullamite, whose name was Hirah.
2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite whose name was Shua. And he took her, and went in unto her.
3 And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.
4 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.
5 And she yet again bare a son, and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.
6 And Judah took a wife for Er his first-born, and her name was Tamar.
7 And Er, Judah`s first-born, was wicked in the sight of Jehovah. And Jehovah slew him.
