Genesis 38:26-28

GOD’S WORD Translation

²⁶ Judah recognized them and said, “She’s not guilty. I am! She did this because I haven’t given her my son Shelah.” Judah never made love to her again.

²⁷ The time came for Tamar to give birth, and she had twin boys. ²⁸ When she was giving birth, one of them put out his hand. The midwife took a piece of red yarn, tied it on his wrist, and said, “This one came out first.”
