Genesis 38:13-17 King James 2000 (KJ2000)

13. And it was told Tamar, saying, Behold your father-in-law goes up to Timnah to shear his sheep.

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

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

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

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