Genesis 38:18-20 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

18. He said, "What should I give you?" "Give me your seal and its string," she answered. "And give me your walking stick." So he gave them to her. Then he had sex with her. And she became pregnant by him.

19. After she left, she took off her veil. She put on her widow's clothes again.

20. 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.
