Genesis 38:14-19

14 she took off her widow’s garments ^aand covered herself with a veil, wrapping herself up, and sat at the entrance to ^bEnaim, which is on the road to Timnah. For she saw that Shelah was grown up, ^cand she had not been given to him in marriage. 15 When Judah saw her, he thought she was a prostitute, for she had covered her face. 16 He turned to her at the roadside and said, “Come, let me come in to you,” for he did not know that she was his daughter-in-law. She said, “What will you give me, that you may come in to me?” 17 He answered, “I will send you a young goat from the flock.” And she said, “If you give me a pledge, until you send it—” 18 He said, “What pledge shall I give you?” She replied, ^d“Your signet and your cord and your staff that is in your hand.” So he gave them to her and went in to her, and she conceived by him. 19 Then she arose and went away, and taking off ^eher veil she put on the garments of her widowhood.
