Genesis 38:1-23 in Telugu

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 Shuah; 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 conceived, and 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 firstborn, whose name was Tamar.

7 And Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him.

8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.

9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

10 And the thing which he did displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.

11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father’s house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father’s house.

12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah’s wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

13 And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep.

14 And she put her widow’s garments off from her, and covered her with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife.

15 When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.

16 And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?

17 And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?

18 And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.

19 And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.

20 And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman’s hand: but he found her not.

21 Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this place.

22 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.

23 And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.

1 ఆ కాలమందు యూదా తన సహోదరులను విడిచి హీరా అను ఒక అదుల్లామీయునియొద్ద ఉండుటకు వెళ్లెను.
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 అక్కడ షూయ అను ఒక కనానీయుని కుమార్తెను యూదా చూచి ఆమెను తీసికొని ఆమెతో పోయెను.
And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her.

3 ఆమె గర్భవతియై కుమారుని కనగా అతడు వానికి ఏరు అను పేరు పెట్టెను.
And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er.

4 ఆమె మరల గర్భవతియై కుమారుని కని వానికి ఓనాను అను పేరు పెట్టెను.
And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan.

5 ఆమె మరల గర్భవతియై కుమారుని కని వానికి షేలా అను పేరు పెట్టెను. ఆమె వీని కనినప్పుడు అతడు కజీ బులోనుండెను.
And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him.

6 యూదా తన జ్యేష్ఠకుమారుడైన ఏరునకు తామారు అను దానిని పెండ్లి చేసెను.
And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar.

7 యూదా జ్యేష్ఠ కుమారుడైన ఏరు యెహోవా దృష్టికి చెడ్డవాడు గనుక యెహోవా అతని చంపెను.
And Er, Judah’s firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the Lord; and the Lord slew him.

8 అప్పుడు యూదా ఓనానుతోనీ అన్నభార్యయొద్దకు వెళ్లి మరిది ధర్మము జరిగించి నీ అన్నకు సంతానము కలుగ జేయుమని చెప్పెను.
And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother’s wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother.

9 ఓనాను ఆ సంతా నము తనది కానేరదని యెరిగి ఆమెతో పోయినప్పుడు తన అన్నకు సంతానము కలుగజేయకుండునట్లు తన రేతస్సును నేలను విడిచెను.
And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother’s wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother.

10 అతడు చేసినది యెహోవా దృష్టికి చెడ్డది గనుక ఆయన అతనికూడ చంపెను.
And the thing which he did displeased the Lord: wherefore he slew him also.

11 అప్పుడు యూదాఇతడు కూడ ఇతని అన్నలవలె చని పోవు నేమో అనుకొనినా కుమారుడైన షేలా పెద్దవాడగువరకు నీ తండ్రియింట విధవరాలుగా నుండుమని తన కోడలైన తామారుతో చెప్పెను. కాబట
Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father’s house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father’s house.

12 చాలా దినములైన తరువాత షూయ కుమార్తెయైన యూదా భార్య చని పోయెను. తరువాత యూదా దుఃఖనివారణ పొంది, అదుల్లామీయుడైన హీరా అను తన స్నేహితునితో తిమ్నాతునకు తన గొఱ్ఱల బొచ్చు కత్తిరించు వారియొద్దకు వెళ్లెను
And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah’s wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite.

13 దాని మామ తన గొఱ్ఱల బొచ్చు కత్త్తిరించుటకు తిమ్నాతునకు వెళ్లుచున్నాడని తామారునకు తెలుపబడెను.
And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold thy father in law goeth up to Timnath to shear his sheep.

14 అప్పుడు షేలా పెద్దవాడై నప్పటికిని తాను అతనికియ్యబడకుండుట చూచి తన వైధవ్యవస్త్రములను తీసివేసి, ముసుకువేసికొని శరీరమంతయు కప్పుకొని, తిమ్నాతునకు పోవు మార్గములోన
And she put her widow’s garments off from her, and covered her with a vail, and wrapped herself, and sat in an open place, which is by the way to Timnath; for she saw that Shelah was grown, and she was not given unto him to wife.

15 యూదా ఆమెను చూచి, ఆమె తన ముఖము కప్పుకొనినందున వేశ్య అనుకొని
When Judah saw her, he thought her to be an harlot; because she had covered her face.

16 ఆ మార్గమున ఆమె దగ్గరకు బోయి, ఆమె తన కోడలని తెలియకనీతో పోయెదను రమ్మని చెప్పెను. అందు కామెనీవు నాతో వచ్చినయెడల నా కేమి యిచ్చెదవని అడిగెను.
And he turned unto her by the way, and said, Go to, I pray thee, let me come in unto thee; (for he knew not that she was his daughter in law.) And she said, What wilt thou give me, that thou mayest come in unto me?

17 అందుకతడునేను మందలోనుండి మేక పిల్లను పంపెదనని చెప్పినప్పుడు ఆమె అది పంపువరకు ఏమైన కుదువ పెట్టినయెడల సరే అని చెప్పెను.
And he said, I will send thee a kid from the flock. And she said, Wilt thou give me a pledge, till thou send it?

18 అతడునేను నీయొద్ద ఏమి కుదువ పెట్టవలెనని అడిగినప్పుడు ఆమెనీ ముద్రయు దాని దారమును నీ చేతికఱ్ఱయునని చెప్పెను. అతడు వాటిని ఆమెకిచ్చి ఆమెతో పోయెను; ఆమె అతనివలన గర్భవతి
And he said, What pledge shall I give thee? And she said, Thy signet, and thy bracelets, and thy staff that is in thine hand. And he gave it her, and came in unto her, and she conceived by him.

19 అప్పుడామె లేచిపోయి తన ముసుకు తీసివేసి తన వైధవ్యవస్త్రములను వేసికొనెను.
And she arose, and went away, and laid by her vail from her, and put on the garments of her widowhood.

20 తరువాత యూదా ఆ స్త్రీ యొద్దనుండి ఆ కుదువను పుచ్చుకొనుటకు తన స్నేహితుడగు అదుల్లా మీయునిచేత మేకపిల్లను పంపినప్పుడు ఆమె అతనికి కన బడలేదు.
And Judah sent the kid by the hand of his friend the Adullamite, to receive his pledge from the woman’s hand: but he found her not.

21 కాబట్టి అతడుమార్గమందు ఏనాయిము నొద్ద నుండిన ఆ వేశ్య యెక్కడనున్నదని ఆ చోటి మనుష్యులను అడుగగా వారుఇక్కడ వేశ్య యెవతెయు లేదని చెప్పిరి.
Then he asked the men of that place, saying, Where is the harlot, that was openly by the way side? And they said, There was no harlot in this place.

22 కాబట్టి అతడు యూదా యొద్దకు తిరిగి వెళ్లిఆమె నాకు కనబడలేదు; మరియు ఆ చోటి మనుష్యులుఇక్కడికి వేశ్య యెవతెయు రాలేదని చెప్పిరని అని నప్పుడు
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.

23 యూదామనలను అపహాస్యము చేసెదరేమో; ఆమె వాటిని ఉంచు కొననిమ్ము; ఇదిగో నేను ఈ మేక పిల్లను పంపితిని, ఆమె నీకు కనబడలేదు అనెను.
And Judah said, Let her take it to her, lest we be shamed: behold, I sent this kid, and thou hast not found her.
