Genesis 38:19-23

She then left and went home. She removed her veil and put her widow’s clothes back on. Judah sent the kid goat by his friend from Adullam to recover the pledge from the woman. But he couldn’t find her. He asked the men of that place, “Where’s the prostitute that used to sit by the road here near Enaim?” They said, “There’s never been a prostitute here.” He went back to Judah and said, “I couldn’t find her. The men there said there never has been a prostitute there.” Judah said, “Let her have it then. If we keep looking, everyone will be poking fun at us. I kept my part of the bargain—I sent the kid goat but you couldn’t find her.”
