One day the older daughter said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is no man around here to give us children— as is the custom all over the earth.

And the firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to come in to us after the manner of all the earth.

One day the older daughter said to her sister,“ There are no men left anywhere in this entire area, so we can’t get married like everyone else. And our father will soon be too old to have children.

Then the firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is no man in the land to sleep with us as is the custom of all the land.

Then the firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is not a man on earth to have relations with us according to the custom of all the earth.

Now the firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is no man on the earth to come in to us as is the custom of all the earth.

And the first- born said unto the younger, Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

Then the firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is no man in the land to sleep with us as is the custom of all the land.

And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father[ is] old, and[ there is] not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

Later the older daughter said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is no man anywhere nearby to have sexual relations with us, according to the way of all the world.

The firstborn said to the younger,“ Our father is old, and there is not a man in the earth to come in to us in the way of all the earth.

Suppose two brothers are living near each other. And one of them dies without having a son. Then his widow must not marry anyone outside the family. Her husband’s brother should marry her. That’s what a brother- in- law is supposed to do.

At that time seven women will grab hold of one man. They’ll say to him,“ We will eat our own food. We’ll provide our own clothes. Just let us become your wives. Take away our shame!”

The Nephilim were on the earth in those days. That was when the sons of God went to the daughters of human beings. Children were born to them. The Nephilim were famous heroes who lived long ago. Nephilim were also on the earth later on.

So she said to Abram,“ The Lord has kept me from having children. Go and sleep with my slave. Maybe I can have a family through her.” Abram agreed to what Sarai had said.

Adam loved his wife Eve and slept with her. She became pregnant and gave birth to Cain. She said,“ With the Lord’ s help I have had a baby boy.”

Then he slept with Hagar, and she became pregnant. When Hagar knew she was pregnant, she began to look down on the woman who owned her.

So she took off her widow’s clothes. She covered her face with a veil so people wouldn’t know who she was. Then she sat down at the entrance to Enaim. Enaim is on the road to Timnah. Tamar knew that Shelah had grown up. But she hadn’t been given to him as his wife.Judah saw her. He thought she was a prostitute because she had covered her face with a veil.He didn’t realize that she was his daughter- in- law. He went over to her by the side of the road. He said,“ Come. Let me sleep with you.”“ What will you give me to sleep with you?” she asked.“ I’ll send you a young goat from my flock,” he said.“ Will you give me something that belongs to you?” she asked.“ I’ll keep it until you send the goat.”He said,“ What should I give you?”“ Give me your official seal and the string that it hangs from,” she answered.“ And give me your walking stick.” So he gave them to her. Then he slept with her. And she became pregnant by him.After she left, she took off her veil. She put on her widow’s clothes again.Judah sent his friend Hirah with the young goat he had promised. He wanted to get back what he had given to the woman. But his friend Hirah couldn’t find her.He asked the men who lived at Enaim,“ Where’s the temple prostitute? She used to sit beside the road here.”“ There hasn’t been any temple prostitute here,” they said.So Hirah went back to Judah. He said,“ I couldn’t find her. Besides, the men who lived there didn’t know anything about her. They said,‘ There hasn’t been any temple prostitute here.’ ”Then Judah said,“ Let her keep what she has. I don’t want people making fun of us. After all, I did send her this young goat. We can’t help it if you couldn’t find her.”About three months later people brought word to Judah. They said,“ Your daughter- in- law Tamar is guilty of being a prostitute. Now she’s pregnant.” Judah said,“ Bring her out! Have her burned to death!”As Tamar was being brought out, she sent a message to her father- in- law. She said,“ I am pregnant by the man who owns these.” She continued,“ Do you recognize this seal and string and walking stick? Do you know who they belong to?”Judah recognized them. He said,“ She’s a better person than I am. I should have given her to my son Shelah, but I didn’t.” Judah never slept with Tamar again.The time came for Tamar to have her baby. There were twin boys inside her.As the babies were being born, one of them stuck out his hand. So the woman helping Tamar took a bright red thread. The woman tied it on the baby’s wrist. She said,“ This one came out first.”But he pulled his hand back, and his brother came out first instead. She said,“ Just look at how you have forced your way out!” So he was called Perez.Then his brother, who had the red thread on his wrist, came out. So he was named Zerah.

He looked down toward Sodom and Gomorrah and the whole valley. He saw thick smoke rising from the land. It looked like smoke from a furnace.

Then Judah said to Onan,“ Sleep with your brother’s wife. After all, you are her brother- in- law. So carry out your duty to her. Provide children for your brother.”But Onan knew that the children wouldn’t belong to him. So every time he slept with his brother’s wife, he spilled his semen on the ground. He did it so he wouldn’t provide children for his brother.

Peter didn’t really know what to say, because they were so afraid.
