"He returned to Judah, and said, "I haven't found her; and also the men of the place said, 'There has been no prostitute here.'""
— Genesis 38:22, World English Bible
“And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, that there was no harlot in this place.”
“And he returned to Judah, and said, I have not found her; and also the men of the place said, There hath been no prostitute here. ”
“So he returned to Judah and said,“I couldn’t find her. Moreover, the men of the place said,‘There has been no cult prostitute here.’””
“He returned to Juda, and said to him: I have not found her; moreover, the men of that place said to me, that there never sat a harlot there.”
“So he went back to Judah, and said, I have not seen her, and the men of the place say that there is no such woman there.”
“And he returned to Judah, and said, I cannot find her; and also the men of the place said, that there was no harlot in this place.”
She arose, and went away, and put off her veil from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.
Judah sent the young goat by the hand of his friend, the Adullamite, to receive the pledge from the woman's hand, but he didn't find her.
Then he asked the men of her place, saying, "Where is the prostitute, that was at Enaim by the road?" They said, "There has been no prostitute here."
He returned to Judah, and said, "I haven't found her; and also the men of the place said, 'There has been no prostitute here.'"
Judah said, "Let her keep it, lest we be shamed. Behold, I sent this young goat, and you haven't found her."
It happened about three months later, that it was told Judah, saying, "Tamar, your daughter-in-law, has played the prostitute; and moreover, behold, she is with child by prostitution." Judah said, "Bring her forth, and let her be burnt."
When she was brought forth, she sent to her father-in-law, saying, "By the man, whose these are, I am with child." She also said, "Please discern whose are these--the signet, and the cords, and the staff."
